Wow… I didn’t expect a guy with the nick of “SoylentOrange” to hit me with a $10 vocabulary. But I guess anything goes here… Seriously though, Thanks a bunch man that meant a lot. (modicum reminds me of the Schnyders Meat commercial… hehehe… Moving on…)

Yah I wasn’t real specific when I was talking about the 3D program I use. It’s World Craft or “hammer” as it’s known now. It was the map editor that was released with the first Half-Life. I have mine configured to render maps for Half-Life Opposing Force. It works well. A little dated, but really easy to use.

I checked the creation date of the first 6 pages I scanned and it was Sept 25… I was off with my estimate of 4 weeks. I only started his comic 2 ½ weeks ago. Holy crap eh?...

The tutorial pic of katt I showed was of a single drawing I had done and colored a while back. It is cropped so the files wouldn’t be too big. I picked it randomly actually… It didn’t have anything to do with this particular comic, just some random cheese cake.

Anyway. I was busy tonight! Drew a cover page and cleaned up the first 5 pages. Also I typed all the text in the story in to MSword to use when I finish the pages. Before that, I finished pretty much all of the 3D set to use (previous day)… I can’t get the bugger to render with specific light sources. (I ran the render engine for 12 hours and it didn’t move an inch. Yet, a quarter of the area when selected will fully render in 7 min.) So I’ll just use the editor display which is the screen shot I took. (below). Then I slapped the text on to the 5 pages I finished and made previews to post. YAY!
