Ok well one, I can tell ur doin it in paint, first off NEVER stretch the sprites seriously, u might as well put the comic in a bin and set it on fire :p haha

tip: if the sprite is too smal, use the select option, select the spirte while draggin the box, then go to stretch/skew, and put 200% 300% etc... NEVER put 150% or 239% or something like that, always a closed number (with 2 0s in the end)...

also work more in the comic, add some funny stuff and not just random "dont shoot me man!" dialogues, I too made a comic a long while back, was planning to start again, and since im now off school, I may indeed begin it, so u may have some competition :p

For the lines just use a imple rectangle, erase a little bit in one of the lines, and then with the line tool, make 2 lines were u erased the part of the border to point to which character is talking, afterwards add text inside the rectangle...

Also try makin ur own sprites, dont get me wrong, I do too use sprites from srpiters resource, I mean make ur own characters so u can add them 2 the comic, it will make the comic more original, and I doubt people will complain, being a smash comic...

Here are some examples of my work:

Lol im terrible at making sprites (i remember once i was making this custom animated enemy for one of my games on game maker i finished it and it was this great monster thing with like 20 different frames but then i accidentally added over 9Million frames and it crashed my computer -.-)

For my old Zelda comic i used to have a few custom sprites (Mostly just color changes to a few enemies).

But i might try again.



I was trying to make a penguin with a arm cannon but...

Hey, could I make a little appearance in this comic as Lloyd Irving from Tales of Symphonia? He rocks, and not to mention he looks a bit like me, cept a little skinnier, in a bright red shirt, with black overalls, and two swords.

Yo lego, not bad s far, still u just gotta work on the dialogue man, its kinda plain, also, is the reaper guy (or ur character), does he only have the sprite that looks directly to the screen? if so, u gotta have to look for a better one man, cause itwont make much sense, samus talking to some guy whose looking another way...

Im just givin ya tips man, to improve the comic, I MAY start mine soon, still gotta get some sprites im missing, also ive noticed ur no longer stretching the sprites, very nice! :p

Stryks you just gave me an idea for an issue thanks and i think im keeping this character and him (Or me) Looking at the screen is kinda like me breaking the 4th wall and my character doesn't really need to look at them because he sees every thing!

And thanks for the tips man im looking forward to your comic .

They are very simple to update with i usually make one on a weekday and make quite a few on the week ends.

And people if you do like this comic post something its always better to let me know you are actually reading this.

Well, like I said, work on the dialogue, do something creative not just:

Hmm we need a villain, I present u this guy!

Sorry If I sound to harsh, Im just triying to help u out, if ur telling a story, then make a story, not just putting samus against a guy wearing her armor, and then shes automatically fighting some guy for no reason, I for one havent begun the my comic cause I dont know how to start it, im not just gonna go "oh no its godzilla im gonna take him out!!" :p

Anyway its not bad believe me, Ive seen WAY worse comics whose dialogues is just copied form the simpsons, so just work at it, everyone starts from somewhere...

That samus thing was just the prototype for the comic but i liked it and put it into the first comic but remember that guy is Roy and no one said Marth was the bad guy...

But thanks and why not start yours with a flash back if its a serious type one or if its not then with a bang.

our comics never really followed a story, they were pretty random, and we are keeping them that way, stryks remember "the circle"
