Have you already been in the silo (on the little island)?

In the cellar you can load the attractors.

It's a nice bg, but something seems a bit wrong to me.

Well, I'm no specialist for those ships, but if you unwrap the sail at this pole, most of it would lie on the deck.

Also this nice little sailor is only half the wide of the mast and it can't be a dwarf because of the size of the railing. The way I remeber it from films, the mast has never been that huge?

I may be wrong, but these are my thoughts, when looking at it.

Yeah â€" good work!

Only one thing may need a little changing:
Just in one of the frames (when the left leg is up, while walking to the right) the shoe seems to be a bit wrong (it looks like the ankle is twisted inwards).

So you made great progress! Well done!  8)

Hello Antipas,

it was/is an interesting story and I'm looking forward to this.

May I suggest, to select a different font for the Esoterica- label (third screenshot)? It is difficult to read.

I still have one question left:
Spoiler
Did you simply forget to give Mrs. Lennon trousers, or is it a „very“ special hotel?  :D

My two cents: The feet pointing downwards when the knees are raised look a bit odd...  :-\
Yes, that's what I thought, first time I saw it (like a kick step while dancing).
But it would be great in case of kicking a ball, whenever he is walking.  ;)

The stripes on his jacket needs to be corrected in one frame (it's jumping upwards) and it seems to me, that his knee is to be set a little lower (seems to be placed at the thigh). Also his fingers shouldn't wag around like hanging there without being controlled.

But all in all it looks very smooth for me.

I saw a post about a cheque but I don't have a cheque. Nor do I have any money. I must be missing a step...

Here's my very subtle hint for you/Tom about this:

Sorry, I missed your last entry while doing the EDIT - could you do the phone call with the first edit?

I think, as long as Tom isn't in need of finding the airport, the call won't work and he will only find something in the warehouse, if he can use it.

It seems to me, that you didn't talk to the security-guard from pier-oil, did you?

You should start with this conversation first and after that most of your problems will be lost (hopefully).

Good luck!

EDIT:
I tried some different ways about the phone and after Tom read the poster it worked fine for me to do the call using
Spoiler
"lindbergh school"
[close]
, so you already should be able to do the call.
Or is it only you knowing the name of the school, but not Tom? ;)

EDIT 2:
Found out, that after you have been to the airport the first time, the old lady will be there for you to get Tom's help.

Yes, they will be doors. All the grey and white parts are remains of the first sketch I made for the room. It's still very much WIP. Also, I cropped the whole thing as it will be a scrollable room, but the right part is still empty. But the doors aren't much higher than the characters, so the size should be okay, don't you think?

Yepp - that would fit!

You make me soooo curious about the story, the game, the ....   hurry up now, will you!? PLEASE! :D

Mmmmh â€" that's not so easy now, because I don't know exactly, where you are and what you did (or didn't).

Can you tell me, what charpter you are right now and what you have in inventory?

With knowing this, I can reload a savegame, try to find the right point and ... maybe help you.
(There are some actions needed to be done in the right order, so maybe I can find out , which one is missing to get you „on the road again“)

I like this background and also the perspective is okay for me.
Yes, there are some little things wrong about the perspective. But this won't stop me having fun while playing. So I would say: If you like it this way, don't get lost in getting perfect!

Also maybe the spot is turned off, so I don't mind the missing beam.
Only one point is irritating for me (a very little bit): If „the gray flat parts“ are (very high) doors, I'm missing the door handles and if these are simple passages, I would like it drawn like the passage to the right. But you told us, it's not ready, so:

Nice work (the laptop is cool)!  :D

@cat
In general I can agree, but we both know about girls-tricks with tape, don't we?  ;)  ... and maybe Technocrat does know it, too?  :o


@aninan
Thanks a lot!  ;D
I try to stay (or get even nearer) to the pencils-drawing of Technocrat with the form of the face.
To solve the "problem" Technocrat told about:
I was missing a peace of the neck in the 3/4-view , so I made it wider. Was it wrong? I also tried to show more of her hipps. Therefore I put the arm a bit more to the right (like in the front view). Also changed the boobs to come nearer to front view and put a shadow here and there.
#2215
Well, I'm not the one to teach, but you may allow me trying to participate with learning about this?

I did some little changings on the face (to make it a bit more a woman, than a girl), hair and smock on the second .
The right one got the hair like the others and I liftet different points one or two lines up (to be at the same high, when turning around) and some little other stuff, you can see better, than me telling it.



If you mind me doing this, please tell and I will erase it immediatly, of course!
#2216
I'm a beginner with stuff like this, so maybe I'm wrong, but showing is an easier way, than describe it (in my english  :P).

Imo the shoulders should be a bit higher and the belly is nice (no need to create a model).



You see, what I mean?

You're welcome and not to forget: Congratulations!  :D


@no roads
Even if you called for keekee and Romeo ~ May I ask, if your probs are solved in the meantime?

If you are still trying to reach the window

you should think about how the bouncer won't stop you. Maybe talking to him will bring you an idea, what you can do about this.

I know that it's probably supposed to be smoking but it looks a LOT more like using a cell phone. I didn't know people can smoke using their ears  ;)

Yes, you are right about this - that's a very big point for you  ;D

First allow me, to give a general hint:
I know, that waiting for help sometimes seems lasting endlessly.
If so, try to find answers while reading the older posts. This thread has a very lot of hints and you often will have luck to find, what you need.
This way you don't have to wait for someone to reply.   ;)


@Shadow:
I don't think, that this is a cellphone (the man in the Music Inn is using), because Tom tells you, that he is smoking (if you look at him).

Did you see the business cards on the table?
Spoiler
Try to get one. After that ask the secretary for to give one to you.

@Fribbi
You can change something for to get the medicine.

Search in Mathildas room for it (it's hidden very well). If you find it, you will know, that the dealer would like to have it.

Hopefully I didn't miss a question. You two have been really busy this night :o

@Fribbi
I would recommend you to concentrate on the secretary first. There is a lot of work to do ...

1. There is a nice little cockroach around. Catch it and try this.

3. Tom needs to know, why he should change/mix it (have you already talked to the door-security?).

Rest will come laaaaater  ;)

also about 2.
using telephone (did you try ...school?).
As far, as I remember, it worked for me. But at this point shouldn't be a need to get the adress - so if this one isn't working, maybe you should wait and try it again, when you are in need of calling there.


hope this helps a bit to go on

Edit:
... about old man and Iris (nothing to do  ;D)
