Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
In the land of... uh... Pylira or however those people pronounce it. There's a terrible evil spreading across the land. And a group of totally weird people join together for faith, friendship, and tons of dirty lucre to defeat the evil that is tainting the world.
'Wait a minute... this sounds a bit familiar. Oh yeah like every other adventuring group in the universe.' You might say but these people work for considerably less than an average group and they call themselves:
THE DISCOUNT ADVENTURERS
CURRENT
ARCHIVE
CREDITS
Spoiler
Show
Evil Mustache - Artist
bcbbb - Technical Producer
And some other people who are the - Writer and Ideas Men
Plus THANK YOU Richard Burlew. Where ever you are, continually slaving away on comics for your loyal fans.
BANNERS & AVATARS
FAN ART
This fancomic updates 1 to 3 times a week. Unless we are super busy, if we are we'll make a special explanation just for you, the viewers! Constructive criticism is welcome. And also compliments are welcome, since I am officially neurotic about how I do my comics and the comments. :smallbiggrin:

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
I am the other guy she mentioned. Each person that works with us helps with the ideas, and some more than others, at times. Evil Mustache and I are the only people in our group that have a user here. And yes, my avatar is one of the characters in this.

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
Is that guy with a grey shirt who has had his pocket picked supposed to have a knife through him?
-
Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
no, those are his pockets folded inside-out.
-
Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
Then I would suggest adding pants to his outfit to make it more obvious, and perhaps straighten out his legs if he is laying on the floor.
-
Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
Oh, and if you haven't noticed, the main characters in the story are all in this and are the character's with hair.

Thank you for the advice. :smallsmile: Hope you enjoyed the pilot comic all the same.

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
It looks to be something good in the works. The tall style is looks a bit off, though. Try making the stroke thicker to offset that. And your female body needs quite a bit of work. The rogue looks like she's just got ridiculously huge implants.

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
oh, and by the way, updates will be posted by either me or evil mustache, if it is by me, look at the last page, and if it is by evil mustache, it will be on the first page, so sometimes you might want to check both.

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
It certainly looks like it was made with discount art software.
...Okay, that was uncalled for. I apologize. It was just a zinger too precious to pass up. :smallfrown:
Anyway, while the art certainly isn't bad, it could be improved. Like, the squwigily lines for arms for that guy in the corner? Just seems untidy. Plus everything else everybody else previously mentioned.
As for story, I just hope this isn't an OOTS clone where the adventurers have no reason for adventuring with each other and have no motive for adventuring. And relies merely on D&D jokes that have been used over and over again. And fourth wall breaking. Is it just me that's beginning to get cheesed off by that kind of story? I hope not.
-
Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
it'll be different than that, but at parts similar, and there are going to be more non-d&d jokes.

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
Also about That Guy With His Pockets Turned Out, isn't his pockets a litle... um, high up? It looks like his pants go up to his belly button or something :smallconfused:

He's an old guy. :smallamused: But don't worry folks I'm almost done with the second comic and have taken in all of your criticism (including pants and rants) to add in a few new things that I hadn't previously taken into account.
Thanks for everything ya'll!

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
One tiny problem: a sorcerer with negative charisma would be unable to cast a 0-level spell, much less a high-level one like Destruction.
-
Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
Yeah, it's like their main stat.
-
Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
yea, either that guy is a wizard or you'll have to switch that stat to negative wisdom.

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
1. I don't write the comics so technically I have no input into what they tell to put in.
2. I will tell the people who write it immediately. Meanwhile enjoy sight of some blatant foreshadowing!

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic

Re: Discount Adventurers - An OOTS Style Comic
since we did not update the comic last weekend, we will post 2 this weekend. we have not said this yet because this is the first chance that anyone has to post on this thread.
