How come? I can't remember that part of the movie - I've only seen it twice - but I'm a big fan of mallrats and clerks and dogma - all good!
I got my friend (who can actually draw - which helps) To draw me out the skelintons of the characters so I could get the posture right (because that pic is horrible) - I used Kaaz's advice with the opacity of a black brush and it works real well - I drew these two on 'The Gimp' (better than hand drawing for me) once my friend helped me with the form -
Jay...

... and Silent Bob...

P.S. I recomend GIMP as an alternative to programs like photoshop or artgem! IT's Ace!

I thinks it be cool.
Perhaps you could play with the colour - making the foreground more bold and the back ground more faded - I think that could help with getting 'distance' in the pic.

Or not.

Cool, yeah that helps - i never thought of doing that - cheers.
I was thinking of perhaps creating a silent bob too - just for a tiny, tiny game. What d'ya think?

Hey! I'm really not getting the hang of shading my characters - I can't find one, but is there a tutorial on how to do this well?
Here's a crummy drawing of 'Jay' (without silent BOB) that i have tried to shade - You see what I mean? It looks ... wrong

So any ideas or tutorials avaliable out there?

God Damn! I love all these xcharacters SO(!!!) much!! I haven't been here that long, but I can easily say these are THE BEST CHARACTERS I HAVE EVER SEEN ON AGS!!! The chick is hot - the boss is intimidating - the gay guy is, well... gay.

PLEASE CONTINUE WITH THIS!!
Afew points though:
Like stuh505 said - the girl looked much sexier and - Human - with smaller, half shut eyes.
The boss' suit was better in black the white pinstripes - i think - don't work so well.
Can we see some backgrounds if you've got that far yet?
Once again - I love these!
P.S The animations are 10/10 also - except for 'jerky pinstripe' I love the other two tho!

Hey man - I dig the Zak McKracken style thing you got going here. :D

Please don't beat me to a pulp for being a n00b - but what is AGI or EGA? Are they programs like AGS but for older games? ???

*Awaits flying objects*

I like the syle - perhaps not the last one so much - But what the hell is that on the video store floor!!? It looks like some wierd manhole cover.
P.S. You need some videos. ::)

;D ;DBut I really like these! Keep going! ;D ;D

Ha! P.P.S Yeah! check out the english interpretation of 'fanny'
#92
Spiffericious! ;D
I'd just add all the advice given - rough the scene up!
P.S I can't spot this damn foamy blue thing! Where is it!?
Are we gonna see more once you make it?

Hiya!
Firstly i'd say that it depends entirely on your decision when it comes to cartoony/smooth characters or old school/pixleated characters - what is the rest of the game like? Backgrounds? Storyline? Atmosphere? Chose a style that fits these.
   If you scan in a drawing, generaly you have to clean it up a little on programs (like photoshop 5.5) - can't you resize the image and then reinforce the lines in paint or somthing?
   I think - but i'm not sure (i'm still new too) - that if you change from 640x480 to 800x600 then all the sprites you create will change in relation to this.
   Errr.. I think that's it. Is that any help?

I just can't say no to a dead squirel being used as a kite..

It looks pretty ace - but i don't like the light coming from the streetlamp - it's a too big a contrast to the rest of the scene - making it look like a solid block of light and it doesn't look 'right'

Ok - just read that back to myself - do i make sense!?  ??? :)

OMG! sorry - my com pooter crashed and i though it wasn't sending!!!!
OOpps! :( ???

 :D I think it's cool - although there isn't actualy a lot on it - it doesn't allow for much interaction. except the vender and tourist booth - perhaps the tree. Could you put more in?
   I like the bold, cartoon style - but the palm tree leaves don't look too great - if you did them in the same way as that little bush it would look better - more texture.
Just a little C & C.
Good work
;D
