Apocalypse Man sounds like the anime version of The Terminator and Re:Creators. Does he go around the world and universe with a shotty?

[legomaestro]

Watson

No, a sword. But depending on a characters' phobia it can become something else. He's a nondescript salaryman looking type who goes around with a simple smile and just kills characters in the middle of their stories. No matter how realistic or fantastical the universe, they always sense his bloodlust before he attacks them.

A collection of survivors and loved ones / interested people with grudges and/or pride/interest start gathering over time and space and piecing together a mythology of said person, and plan to take him out, but so far they're still lagging behind.

The character and idea of the story would have me read a chapter or few to see how it goes.

[legomaestro]

Haha, mayhap one day, mayhap one day



Jonathan The Hero died a famous king and left all his combat and magic abilities to his daughter Susanne and son Jonas. Jonas inherited his father's kingdom while Susanne swore to become a dark witch. She occassionally attacks Jonas and his kingdom when she feels lonely. Jonas is a no-nonsense type who really tries to destroy her when she attacks, and Susanne is as impulsive as they come and leaves whenever she feels bored. In this strange manner, the two siblings begin growing legends of their own as King and Witch.




An unorthodox detective hires an even more unorthodox detective to solve all cold cases in their home town. A total of 24. However, for such a small-ish town said detective doesn't have the emotional finesse to handle something like this...

really nice. the layout on the bottom one is fantastic.
and nice camera angles on the top one.

the accompanying few lines of story leave me wanting more :P

[legomaestro]

Thanks suuper! Muchly appreciated. I find it fun to try to fit stories into the panels.

Haven't popped in here for a while, had to do a LOT of catching up but damn that was worth it! As always your characters design are so interesting and fun. I love how much personality oozes through each design. It's really amazing that each design is relatively simple as well, you pack a lot of detail where it matters and it shows in each character, even the ones without descriptions!

I especially love the ghost character Toi. Concept is fun and interesting but the design is striking and despite being simple. The question now is, when does the practice end so we can see these characters in stories?

the Nunchuk Powah one is awesome.   
very nice detail.  especially the hands! 
LOL you even added a fingernail or two!

[Walter B]

That "unorthodox, bad at relating" scientist type vibe seems like quite an interesting thing. For some reason, the guy reminded my of Stein from Soul Eater

I second this!!!! That comment also applies to my art too so i suppose i should eat my own comments :P

I find it fun to try to fit stories into the panels.

I should really try that  a bit. It might help to add more design to my characters as well while i am drawing them.

Nice latest one. the pose is quite good. also the anatomy is quite good as well. Your work is quite stylized anyway but most of the muscles and stuff look quite good.

@walterB dammit i thought it was like Dr. Stein too but it wasn't so similar that i thought anyone else would agree with me. I wish i had said it now >_<

Bullet Catch

Cross Fist vs. Scorpion Claw

And a dump

[Walter B]

Those action scenes look awesome! Great work buddy!

[Suuper-san]

great sketch dump lego.
i love the poses you've got in that fight scene between those two guys.
awesome animation too. i've just made my first animation in years and its a geat medium (and also very time consuming). that bullet catch one of yours is cool, but something is a little off. after a coule of rewatches i figured it out, in the zooming towards the other guy part, the height/position of the character varies making it seem like he is wobbling rather than zooming in . but cool nonetheless. i am very tempted to copy :P
plus decent character designs as always
since your stuck on using paint, im wondering if you couldnt up the quality of the drawings by using a thicker paintbrush and drawing in double the scale. the newer version of paint can zoom out to less than 100% these days, so it might just knock off a bit of the pixelness. you also then gain the option for having a line taper by erasing a part at the end of it.

[legomaestro]

Thankee suuper!

Haha glad that the fight scene was readeable at least... Except black coat is a gal ((

Yeah the animation went wonky in a bad way. I knew something was wrong but I couldn't figure it out hahaha. Thank goodness. And yeah man steal away. To be honest I'm shocked nobody tries animating stuff more. The pay off is so much worth the fiddling around between frames haha.

Cheers.

I've always wondered about that. I guess the lines always look bad if I don't use the line tool or something, so I'll need to use a thicker brush. Sigh. It's the curse of no pressure sensitivity.
