I did. That was the fantastic work I meant. :O)

I'd love to be able to piece together a graphic novel that looked as consistently great as your's does. You used Flash for the presentation?

Ah, cool.

Hope you signed up at the end?

Actually I used SwishMax2, a flash equivelent. It's cheaper.

Cheers again

Atta guy! Hey, I use Blender to model, so I tip my hat to you. :O)

I use blender sometimes for UV's for its pelt mapping. But I have maya and zbrush for the rest.

You're obviously a pro and I'm simply an amateur, but I am very much drawn in by your storytelling. How many renders to you expect to take to get your tale across?

Thanks man.

I'm currently storyboarding some more of the story, but I expect it to be many hundreds to complete the whole story. I'm aiming to get the first chapter finished before the end of the year and release it as a graphic novel.

Cheers

Well all the best of luck to you. I've seen a few stabs at using 3D for an online graphic novel and your's is the most technically excellent I've see. You've got an excellent grasp of lighting for dramatic purpose.

I'm looking forward to seeing more from your friend who's doing the Western as well.

Thanks again. There are some very dodgy ones out there I agree.
I hope to change that, along with my friend Jason Edwards that you refered to.

I'll be working on some more shots tomorrow for the next update.

cheers

Not as technically advanced as your's, but a decent story pretty far along.
