  1. Are we still going to run a posi or now that jophiel's got the badge are we going to run something else instead?

    I was just wondering why a lot of Filipino comic book artists haven't gotten the attention they deserve. Either that, or they "subtly" work for the big labels. There are a lot of talented folk in my college alone.

    *Shrugs*

    Well, this being the CoX board and all... You mentioned Virtue in your first post. Is Bayani fighting crime over there?
    Yes, I do live in New England. My father is from Illocos Sur and my mother is from Metro Manila. And I do play on Virtue.

    I think the Filipino artists are taking over comics. Segovia, Yu, Manapul, Medina, Tolibao...hehe. Still working on getting something from Tolibao and Yu.

    Kumusta, Redwense! What province are you from?

    Go Team Seeker!

    If being a member of Team Seeker is wrong, I don't want to be right!

    (seriously though, I watched a few episodes of the show and well, my first impression is that it's even more campy than the Hercules/Xena series of the 90s. I didn't think that was possible!)
  5. Yeah, unfortunately given that these are inks, the stage to basically re-draw the face is past, so it's more on to tweaking/damage control so to speak.

    Just thought I'd pop a progress piece on the 2 page action splash in the works, featuring Clockwork Cadaver and other player characters. (My apologies in advance for the posterizing).

    The idea for the piece was a rooftop brawl between Bayani and a few allies up against Crey and the Clockwork Cadaver. I liked Starflier's concept for Clockwork Cadaver, and the idea of Crey trying to subdue the character with Bayani et al there to prevent Crey's efforts and take down for the PPD. I think the background needs to be shifted upward a bit so Bayani/Cadaver don't look like they're *that* high over the rooftop they came from, but I suppose story-wise you could say that Bayani is intercepting the Cadaver via a mid-air tackle or something.




  6. dA outted me as a member of Team Seeker. It's true. I love that show. Legend of the Seeker. *deadpan*

    Go Team Seeker!

    Screw you Twilight fans! I'm with the Seeker!

    Apparently dA took it upon themselves to change our avatars for the day.



    This is Richard Cypher.

    He uses his big sword to defeat evil doers for a living.

    'Legend of the Seeker' for the WIN!
  8. Yeah. did a quick revision on my own then passed it along. the lip outline is heavy, but when colors and some lighting are added, it'll probably work itself out.

  9. yeah, it's really the mouth and maybe the nose more than anything else. ah well,. maybe colors will remedy the situation.


  10. Inks on this are mostly done, though I'm not quite happy with the way Bayani's face looks in the image. Not quite sure how to remedy that though.
  11. Hm. Sports...New York...

Bret, and the Hart family got thier closure, as far as that's concerned..If Bret continues to be involved it will probably be only in a managerial role for the Hart Dynasty.
    Nothing against the Hart Family or Vince, but in watching the match it seems a bit weak that it was basically 15 minutes of ganging up on one guy. Honestly I don't see how that could've helped wrestling or either side's image. I'd rather see a real technical match between two mid-cards who could main event some day rather than what amounts to a pre-planned public humiliation-fest. You would think that Bret being put in the WWE hall of fame and playing a role in the company would be enough Closure really.

    Wait, no...

    but for a while, I meant, all the new guys..ex. Legacy, the Hart Dynasty, had the same gimmick.
    True enough. I think alot of the time, the WWE's really trying to bank on the nostalgia factor. I remember a Royal Rumble a few years ago where Roddy Piper and Jimmy Snuka somehow ended up in the ring facing off. History's fun and all but, I don't think you win new fans that way.

    But, take for example Legacy..A lot of the new talent came in with the gimmick- 'we're young and/or 2nd/3rd generation wrestlers. we wan't our spot now. why should we wait? we'll be cocky and arrogant so there!'
    BOOOOOORRING!!
    Fair enough, but sometimes those gimmicks and such are pushed on wrestlers. Heh. Before Kane was Kane, he was dentist/wrestler Isaac Yankem. Hardcore Holly use to be Bob "Sparkplug" Holly. Oi. Those were the days eh?
  18. We'll see if the NXT show will make it; Kinda disappointing that ECW folded but they didn't have a big roster to make it work.

    Few folks have the "it" factor anymore. It takes time and experimentation to figure things out. Look at Triple H...he started out with that silly Connecticut blueblood gimmick battling the likes of Duke Droese.

    And that was a very nice send off for Shawn Michaels last night. That's the way a wrestler, of his starpower, should leave the business.I remember watching the AWA back in high school and seeing this new tag team- The Midnight Rockers- Shawn Michaels and Marty Janetty (sp?). So, I guess, I've watched Shawn, a.k.a. HBK, his whole carrer.

    He's been around for an awfully long time. Truth be told, I think he should've retired years ago. I'm still surprised the Undertaker's still around. Alot of these guys should really just step down and see more of the new blood get their time to shine. It seems like it's just the same older guys headlining these shows and warring with the same older guys. Why did CM Punk lose to Mysterio? Mysterio's older news now. Seems counter-productive because Punk is a growing commodity.
