Badass Muthas! - Action Adventure Upside Your Head!

Happy Leap Day!

mrdaveryan — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 21:24:00 +0000

Here's a little insight into what I've been doing for the past month:

It's the new format for the character pages. Sorry, it won't be animated or anything like the current one, but it will be a lot easier to update. That's The Professor, by the way. He's a White Heart. One of the Celestial Ten actually.

For a vote, I'll show you Ralph and Eugene's new pics.

Howdy

Just checkin' in. I've been working on a lot of behind the scenes site crap. You might not notice anything but don't be alarmed if stuff goes screwy kablooey.

FLCL is on Adult Swim again. It just might be my favorite anime of all time.

Almost immediately after I declared that Death Note "rules" it pissed in my eye with two clunker episodes. Next week's episode doesn't look much better.

I saw 28 Days Later this past weekend. Very cool.

Silly Sunday - Button, button, who's got the button

mrdaveryan — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 00:38:00 +0000

I'm working on some buttons so I can get mad rich! Here's two I came up with(voting will get you a bigger view).

Would you pay money for them? No?? HAVE YOU GOT A BETTER IDEA!? If so, let me hear it, suggestions are more than welcome.

Wikipedia Wednesday - The Power of Authority

mrdaveryan — Thu, 14 Feb 2008 03:26:00 +0000

I saw this guy on The Colbert Report.

He ran this crazy experiment.

Which was sort of like this experiment.

And then I read about this, which is crazier than both experiments put together.

Page 82 - End of Chapter 3

mrdaveryan — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 22:45:00 +0000

He really does hate them.

Pseudo-hiatus time! Chapter 4 will pick up in about a month. In the meantime, I have a few projects I hope to knockout listed in priority order:

1) The White Hearts Handbook (working title) - this should answer some of the more technical questions ya'll have been asking.

2) Rejigger the characters page and add several profiles

3) Make a t-shirt of two, maybe a poster

4) Rework some of those less than stellar pages from a few months ago (this kid's the darkhorse! if it's easy, I'll hit all of 'em, but it's not a priority)

*) Play the shoot out of Super Smash Brothers Brawl (this guy could be a real trouble-maker)

So check back every now and then, there will be news updates. And feel free to give us a vote, just for the heck of it.

Also, Death Note rules.

I pulled a bit of a boner on this one. Jerry should be saying "Weeooweeooweeoo" throughout the whole page so be a good lad and imagine that he is.

Sketchy Monday - McFly and his tricks

mrdaveryan — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 01:21:00 +0000

MauMau depicts McFly pulling all kinds of sweet moves.

Disclaimer: Although I did sketch up a doodle of McFly sporting some very Sharingan- like eyes, he does not, in fact, possess the Uchiha's legendary ability. McFly's a composite of many things Naruto, that's fo'shizzle, but eye jutsu ain't one of them.

Well I hope this settles the debate.

Sketchy Monday - Ralph Fanart Barrage

mrdaveryan — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 22:48:00 +0000

Damn My Eyes depicts Ralph's early music career as a back-up whistler for the Demoine City Rumblers.

As Dr3wdub shows us, Ralph trained daily in the arts of wicked riffs and gnarly amp poses.

Cycrone illustrates a classic Ralphian School of Rock technique - The Invisible Guitar Electrical Nose Jam.

mrdaveryan — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 03:38:00 +0000

You know, I decided a few months ago that I would streamline the page creation process so that it wouldn't be so time consuming. Then, two weeks ago, I started writing the dialogue by hand. That just doesn't make sense.

Anyways, good page. Every panel's got something interesting, IMHO.

Sketchy Monday - Cyrule Fanart

mrdaveryan — Mon, 21 Jan 2008 23:03:00 +0000

Killer32 is responsible for this. I think it's pretty rad. His comic is also pretty rad. Go check it out.

Page 78 - The Grassman Switch

mrdaveryan — Fri, 18 Jan 2008 05:46:00 +0000

Get the old bifocals out, this is one of the text-heaviest pages in a while.

I like this page. I forgot to add dust in the sixth panel, but life goes on.

Sketchy Monday - McFly Fanart

Zaid (Philip?) posted this in the forums a while ago. McFly on roids!

Page 77 - Aww

mrdaveryan — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 04:45:00 +0000

The first two panels on this new page suck rubber ducks. Poorly planned, poorly executed. If anything, I probably should have cropped them closer. I like the other three panels, though, especially numero quatro.

I apologize in advance to anyone who has trouble reading the handwritten dialogue.

Sketchy Monday - Lord Cyrule

mrdaveryan — Tue, 08 Jan 2008 03:49:00 +0000

You may have noticed Cyrule's head's got a bit more bullet to it than last time. I've increased his aerodynamicness TENFOLD.

mrdaveryan — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 23:35:00 +0000

Forgive the lateness of this update, pals, those Geth aren't gonna kill themselves right?!

I don't love this page, but it gets the job done.

Happy Holidays my little stinkers

mrdaveryan — Mon, 24 Dec 2007 21:25:00 +0000

I'm not sure if I'll get an update done this week so enjoy this fun-filled sleigh ride for now. The pic is wallpaper size though it might be a bit too busy for that. I'll retool it a bit if y'all are interested.

Have a merry one

Page 75 - Showtime!

mrdaveryan — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 04:41:00 +0000

This page ain't too fancy, but it gets the job done. Any trouble reading the action in panel 2?

Voting will once again net you two full page sneak peeks. Next week and the week after that

Sketchy Monday - Lord Flavus

mrdaveryan — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 04:19:00 +0000

Another robo general. He's yellow and wears a lot of rings.

Page 74 - Toasty

mrdaveryan — Fri, 14 Dec 2007 04:37:00 +0000

I think this page turned out decent enough. I'm a little concerned that the action in the second and fifth panels isn't clear. Let me hear it.

In other news, voting will get you not ONE but TWO full page sneak peeks. future 1 future 2

Vote Incentive Wednesday

mrdaveryan — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 05:38:00 +0000

Howdy. You may have noticed I've been a little lax with the Monday and Wednesday news updates lately. I've been putting the majority of my time into the comic, I assume that's groovy.

Anyways, here's a little something: Vote here to check out this week's update a few days early. Vote here to see some full-on sketch action of the following week's update.

Page 73 - Sweet Moves

mrdaveryan — Sat, 08 Dec 2007 02:08:00 +0000

For a Guy who's running out of steam, McFly's still got some pretty nasty moves.

The giant robos are called Rooks. I like the way they look on this page, but don't be shocked if their design 'evolves' a bit over the next few pages.

Sketchy Monday - Lord Pratin

mrdaveryan — Tue, 04 Dec 2007 04:40:00 +0000

A fuzzy sketch of the robo general Lord Pratin. He's green.

Page 72 - A Whole Lot Easier

mrdaveryan — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 05:28:00 +0000

Now this is more like it.

The last panel is probably my favorite.

Glossary - D Day

mrdaveryan — Thu, 29 Nov 2007 05:00:00 +0000

16 years ago, demons fell from the sky over the city of Demoine. The 'Demon Rain', as they call it, continued for about 6 hours unleashing thousands of demons upon the bustling metropolis. The demon horde crushed all resistance the Northern Green Triangle could muster. The great capital city of Laput was reduced to a crater in a single day. Even some of the world's most powerful forces (like the Black Diamond Society and White Hearts) could do little more than evacuate refugees. Within a few weeks, the demons dominated the entire Yeelo River Delta.

The demon-controlled territory has unofficially become known as 'The Badlands'- an unoriginal but accurate moniker. If the demons have such a thing as a capital, it would be the former city of Demoine, now cleverly renamed Demon City.

In case you haven't figured it out, D Day = Demon Day.
