Shards of Siberys - An Eberron webcomic

[Krelon]

We all have to start with something and noone is born a master. Maybe find something beyond MSpaint.
A good story can make up for not so good art (although, the big figures presented in spoilers already look nice enough for me). When in doubt show less background and more PCs (e.g. Anti-Heroes has very plain backgrounds but is excellent nontheless)

[Hacktor]

New comic is up...

If you like it ... Makes me happy :D
If you don't ... tell me why so i can improve :D

Also still accepting character backgrounds :)

[Bryn]

It's always good to see Eberron stuff

A few critiques on the revised first comic:
When resizing text, hold the Ctrl key to make sure it stays in proportion, otherwise the text looks strangely flat or thin. This was sorted out in the second comic as I wrote this message
Also, I'd reccomend not using the .jpg format for your work, or if you do, reducing the level of compression. The compression artifacts really harm the comic as it is now - .jpg generally isn't good for OOTS-style work. I reccomend using the .png format, or .gif (which is what the Giant uses).
Finally, I'd modify the size and proportions of the eyes somewhat, to make them a bit more like the OOTS eyes. Simply making them thinner would work.

The writing is excellent, though. Indeed, good work all-round

[Hacktor]

Thanks... i noticed that the eyes don't look right :D will fix in future comics. And I use .JPG for space-related issues.. I'll try .PNG hope to get better results..

Can always use some constructive criticism :) Thanks

[Bayar]

damn, now this was funny ! Especially because I didnt expected it...

TP gets slam attack !

[Hacktor]

:D tehnically it does :D

[Hacktor]

Added a 5'th character :) working on next strip

[Bayar]

Wasnt the fifth one banned ?

[Hacktor]

He was but i want to re-do that strip ..it's important enough not to overlook it :D ... although i think i'm going to replace the Artificer with another PC :P

[Krelon]

I had a look at your old strips and must say that the re-do is way much better, keep it up

[Bayar]

Will there be a shifter ?

[Hacktor]

I think i'll drop a spoiler now ..the 3'rd character (the dual-axe guy) actualy has a set of fangs.. No more spoilers now :D

[Bayar]

So, when will the next comic be done ?

[Hacktor]

When i get home from work :D

[Hacktor]

New comic is up :D

[Bayar]

Was that a 5 foot step and unarmed strike? Is he a monk? Does he have the Improved unarmed strike feat? Find out, later !

Want more !

[Hacktor]

Or he just has a few ranks in tumble and used an untrained unarmed strike out of the reach of a longspear :) find out ...even later :)

[Hacktor]

made this strip look better (removed the outlines..made some smaller eyes for him :D) ,,anyhow ... what do you think?

[Hacktor]

By the way ..i want an opinion please. Does it look better with the thick borders or without? Thanks

[Hacktor]

Check out the new banner ... :D

[Almighty Salmon]

Just so you know, I'm pretty sure that banner doesn't fit in with the forum rules. A banner can't be over 120 pixels in height.

[Lyinginbedmon]

The fish is correct about the banner

[kpenguin]

Just a note: Failing Saves' banner is over 120 pixels in height...

You could always put the banner in a spoiler.

[Hacktor]

OK I will modify it do just under 120 pixels high :) thanks for the tip.:P by the way Salmon ,,any word on a new comic for Failing-saves? you've been at 42 since friday:P

[Hacktor]

Fixed the banner :D although it looks kinda small :(

[Bayar]

I like it...when I will get some room in my sig, I will add it

now, GET A COMIC DONE

[Hacktor]

Thing is while i'm at work i can only work onm small things like characters and banners and whatnot...no time .. in the evening i can and usualy work on a comic :D so expect one by tonight :D bayar ...can you contact me via messenger please.. I need to talk to you.

[Krelon]

I had a look at comic #3 and just wanted to say that the art is getting better, keep it up and get some more done

Does every protagonist get a brief two strip intro, I wonder?

[Hacktor]

Not every protagonist need one ... i'm sure after the 4'th strip you'll se why i did that :)

[Hacktor]

New Comic is up! :D

Now it all makes sense doesn't it? ;)

Leave a comment if you like it so i know people are actually reading this and I'm not doing them for nothing.

Bye :D
