Wip

Its been a long long time since Ive posted here, because of some issues Ive had to deal with. Not to mention class..

The Love sections cover!

Its been a long while since Ive posted. Long story short, my drawing tablet died RIGHT after finishing this, so updates on the games art department are delayed..this gives us more toom for the story though ;) stay tuned.

Beta Wayne: Full Sprite-sheet

I havent posted an update in a long while, so I thought to make a finished sprite sheet for Wayne's (beta) character model! As of now, nothing is set in stone so all of these sprites may be subjected to revising or out right termination-however all of these frames will be in the upcoming beta level along with the first and only enemy model.

After beating up my tablet for about twenty minutes I get it to finally work again. The only problem is that I have to have the wire bent in a certain way for the connection to my laptop stays strong...pretty much Ill really need to get my hands on a new one soon. Before it croaks for good preferably.

These four sprites (Finished Aerial attack, Injured, Injured: Stunned, and the incomplete Thrust punch) are pretty much my copy paste work at its finest. While I was working on these however, I realized two of Waynes planned animations, the Kick and Dodge roll, were both utterly useless. As such, it gave me room to add a few things to the character...more on that later.

Love: Jumps

This next batch of sprites contain all of Wayne's jumps, including his jump attack. The last sprite isnt completed, because my tablet is starting to screw around with me @___@. I would have had two more than this; maybe even a complete animation of another attack of Wayne's but what can you do?

Love: First screen

The very first screen of the actual game, the mill where Wayne works, outside of town. Most of the building is off screen, leaving only a few pieces of machinery and the front door to view.

Love

About 6-10 hours of work later, Im finished with the running frames. Hexxy has made a quick loop, and so far we're both liking the results. There is, however, the possibility of having Wayne's tail move as he is running. Along with that, we now have a logo for our project, which has been renamed ''Love'' as apposed to Loved.

Wayne Sprite2

Now comes the run cycle..Im using X's walk from the Megaman X series as reference, but Ill be using fewer frames. The lost game I worked on, the main character only had 4 running frames, but here Im going to try giving Wayne 6-7 frames for a more fluid animation.

Wayne Sprite

This one sprite took me hours to shell out. It goes without saying that sprite work inst one of me strongest points but I like the crisp, retro look. On that note, Im going to try drawing all of the frames as sprites and not shrunken down pictures like originally intended.

Loved: Wayne

A more refined sketch of the player character, a young man from a town that is one day demolished by a creature who's only solemn wish is to be loved.

Loved: Enemy concepts

Loved

Surprise, surprise this isn't a review folks. Instead you're getting concept art for a project me and my close friend Hexxy, the lead admin of F-list are working on which, for now, is going under the name ''Loved''. Its very early in obviously, as right now we are in the development stages and of course I'll be making frequent updates on its progress.

Rant mode: Role-players

This is kind of weird seeing as I am in fact:
A) A role-player
and B) A mod on F-list
I'm a staff mod and a chat mod to be specific, which basically means I answer trouble tickets and watch people talk about how big they're dicks are in the chat-rooms. I'm not really trying to bash F-list or any specific members per-say, just some of the more undesirables. I'm not trying to bash people for liking a certain kink either..I mean to each their own right? You like scat and waterspouts? Good for you, just keep it out of my cereal and we'll be fine. Now that all that is out of the way...

What is it with people who feel that they are entitled to an RP whenever they contact you anyway? I cant count how many times Ive had to read a ticket about someone harassing people offsite when they dont get they're daily dog cock fix (sadly F-list doesn't have a good offsite harassment rule..my only gripe with an otherwise good site :C). Are these people that lonely and depraved that they HAVE to RP whenever they start a conversation? This just goes to show that some furries take this shit a little too seriously. Then there are those really hopeless fucks who'll go as far as threaten you with violence like the online version of a really crazed and obsessive spouse. Thats what these people are, crazed spouses..except no one puts up with they're shit offline so what do they do? Pull on the wife-beater online. As if that wasn't bad enough we have to deal with these suicidal fuckwits. Ive dealt with a few of these actually, and ONCE is more then enough. If you're going to kill yourself over an online role-playing session then you have some serious issues. If you ever think you should threaten someone with suicide over anything, let me stop you right here and tell you that online no one cares, so just keep it to yourself.

And thats not even why Im ranting like this. Im on rant mode because of the profiles I have to read that look like this:

''Hi shi's name is Amy. Shi lieks hanging out and havng fun w/ u. When shi is shi will normly be vry hapy w/ u and want 2 play. ^____^''

Please keep in mind that this is what I saw on someone's page. I'm no grammar nazi but there is absolutely no reason anyone with any understanding of basic English should write like this--and then complain when they dont get people to ''liek Amy''; this shit inst cute. I keep having to tell people that just because I like perfect grammar doesn't mean I demand it. I dont mind spelling errors..I dont mind the missed punctuation mark here or there. I mind when it looks like I'm RP'ing with a fucking two year old.

Bottom line, you jerks are making us look bad when we didn't have a good image to begin with. While I'm at it I'm going to quote Silverautomatic in regards to the grammar issue.

if u type lik dis i wil h8 u 4ever

Sigeram

There isn’t much to say in particular when it comes to Sigeram. There isn't much horribly bad or wrong with his art, while at the same time I wasn’t blown away either. His only real issue seems to me particular minor ones such as the occasional sloppy inking, and some minor anatomy errors. Everything is so minor here that-again with some practice they could be overcome relativity quickly. The problem is that right now its all of those minor errors that are piling up and holding Sigeram back. Its not like he hasn’t tried to (and Im sure he has) but after browsing through his gallery the only aspect where I can say he's really improved would be his coloring. Even then most of his new and old works look same , which gives me the impression that he is focusing most of his time practicing on the colors.

While there isn’t anything wrong with that per-say, a beautifully colored picture can be utterly ruined with sloppy line-work. ANYWAY for the bottom line, work on those lines boy!....or simply learn to draw without them. Whichever works best.

Thewielder

First, I fucking love Thewielder; I love everything about his work but when you’re a muscle nut like I am how can you not? I mean..his characters all look like they're on roids ,and just got finished doping up on adrenaline and testosterone injections...IN A GOOD WAY! Then there’s the thing with the electrical..bondage rings..yeah don’t really get that but that’s besides the point, they look cool! Muscle-bound dick riding aside the only honest gripe I reaaaally have with his work is the lack of variety. Sure I like meat heads as much as the next muscle fiend, but after looking at the sixth or seventh meat head hovering in a void bound by the Borgs version of electrical tape things start getting a bit dull.

Bottom line, I dig your stuff Wielder, but I firmly believe variety is the spice of life and by incorporating that a little bit more in your work it would be all the sweeter to look at. So..why not next time you make us your famous beef sirloin, you us a different brand of pepper? Hell why not just make us a salad?...or throw in some hooters, to keep us guessing.

Raukue pt2

Im over my rant now. Looking back I dont think I was very fair to Raukue. He deserves an actual review, but instead he got the reviewing end of my rant rage..so to be fair Im going to try this again. Here is the actual review.

As stated before, the majority of Raukue's work centers around his depraved pedo-fantasies, which (If we forget the context and look at the content/quality) aren't very well drawn to begin with. The anatomy is either non-existent, or circular, he shops his backgrounds 60% of the time, and the colors are usually mediocre at best. With some practice these issues can be easily overcame. Other then that he likes throwing on pounds of baby fat on whatever and whenever he can, even on places that wouldn't normally have to make the characters ''cuter''. What this does however..is make them look gross. The kind of cum covered,pudgy gross you wouldn't want touching you with a five 1/2 foot pole.

Raukue

=Warning, this is more of a rage rant then an actual review=

I'd be lying if I said I didn't like cute artwork, because I do, but I'd be a lying prick if I claimed to enjoy Raukue's work..and I dont. Not only has he been in an artistic stand-still for the past four years, putting baby-fat on everything is just plain insufferable to the eye. The issue here is that Raukue and his ''fan-base'' think otherwise. They think his work is cute. That would be perfectly fine if it was, and wasn't such an eyesore.

The sad thing is I cant even blame him for it, when [{semen} + CuB* = Cute] is furry lab 101. Some guy called cub porn ''cute'', instead of ''fucking hot''(furry linguistics) at some point so they wouldn't look like a total creep and it must have caught on, because that is the only scenario where I can fathom anyone calling This cute. I wouldn't even be ranting so hard about it if people didnt blur the line between sick shit and cuteness so much, and I CAN blame Raukue for that. I am sick and tired of people calling me sick and tired for liking Sheer. To top that off, someone had the galls to call the title picture cute when I posted this review on FA. Sad enough, it was the best picture of Raukue they'll ever see..till someone else draws a satire picture of him anyway, or he gets those basic drawing lessons I so kindly suggested before.

Bottom line? If you think dunking a child in semen and putting them in a 12 man gay orgy is cute-Go see a therapist. Effective immediately.
