More Fable Pics
Some more pic from the Fable game
it's been good fun playing it, altho the whole bad disc reader on my bro's 2nd xbox really p*sses me off :-/
but still, erm prolly so much to tell since i last told you whats going on...
I killed a load of werewolf type things, which was pretty hard as when fighting the boss ever time you took like 10% off his health another werewolf would appear.
so a little hard
then i had to fight in an arena and kill waves and waves of different beasts, i think this is the first time i 'died'.
once all that was done i ended up killing some girl i'd known since started training at the guide, whisper her name was.
I took the 'no mercy kill everyone' boast so had to finish her after beating her in combat, but hey i AM trying to be evil...
speaking of which here are some more pics:
now i'm fighting these large mole/rat creatures with HUGE double edged blades,
which is very hard, and with the bad disc reader is rather annoying, anyway i'm sure i will come back to it and play a bit more, not sure if i will today or not..
Got a gig tonight with the band, really looking forward to it, should be good fun, first propper gig for ages, maybe 5 years!
also i think we will get a good turn out to see us, so that is very encourging :-)

Fable: Evil jo
As posted before
my bro kindy lent me hs xbox and fable,
which has been much fun and kinda got me into rpg's again.
it has loads of nice little touches, although i still dont always understand how the game work things out.
example; as said before being evil has its side effects meaning your ugly and none of the girls want to have anything to do with you
however i got some new armour, walked around without my helmet on, and a few roses and choclates and the girls didnt seem to mind i had 2 huge horns growning out my head. in fact there was a lot of swooning and so on going on.
however i come to play it again today and its as if none of this happened, everyone hates me again.
so i thought i might as well go extream, a bit of stealing and killing guards and my evil rating goes up and this is the result:
however this still isn't the top level evil i think...
anyway, this evening it seems i'm jixed coz not only is the xbox playing up, as it has been a little, its doing it loads...and my pc has been hanging and all sorts
and i dont really feel like doing anything, that restless kind of feeling ;-/
not good
oh, not going to go into it, but had some pretty nasty nightmares last night,
so where as i probably need an early night, i'm probably not going to get one...
on top of this i need to sort out what i'm going to 'go as' at a fancy dress party on saturday, and have a band gig on sunday, which is all good, just feels like a lot to sort out...
esp when your not in the mood to do anything...
ANYWAY....

Get a smile out of the US Presidential campaign
'Maybe the Lord has a way of revealing those of us who really know him,
and those who don't!
Kerry gave a big speech last week about how his faith is so important to him.
In this attempt to convince the American people that we should consider him for president, he announced that his favourite Bible verse is John 16:3. Of course the speech writer meant John 3:16, but nobody in the Kerry camp was familiar enough with scripture to catch the error. And do you know what John 16:3 says?
"They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me"'

todays vgcats here
is based on fable,
the funniest thing thats happened to me i forgot to mention.
right at the start (ish) before i became really evil i was looking around a guarded town, thought about attacking people, but thought the guards looked bigger than me
found a school full of children and a school teacher...
thought i would amuse the kids with some farting and burping
the kids loved it, but the teacher called me stupid or vulgar or something
so i had to kill him
the kids ran screaming and called for the guards...
i legged it out of town

How to make comics
As requested by Rob in preparation of his yeti meat comic:
How do i make the Infinite Monkeyz comics?
draw
pencil (sharp, HB or 2B) and paper(A4), rubber when needed, if possible i get this to all fit on one a4 page, depending on what 'archive cartoons i can use/edit i may only have to do one new drawing.
ink
typically using a 'S' size Stabilo OH pen or '5' pilot drawing pen.
I find the width of the line can save you a lot of time later on in the process with filling gaps, i still haven't found the perfect width.
scan
scan in my canon N656U scanner saving as a TIF.
Adobe Streamline
open in Adobe Streamline 4.0 to convert to vector graphics
saving as Illustrator file
Adobe Illustrator
open in Adobe Illustrator 9.0,
create the layout wording and balloon bubbles and all composition.
Export as 300 resolution BMP into photo paint.
Photo Paint
colour , at this point if your inked drawing had any gaps, or when converting into vector in Streamline the ink lines were not strong enough to constitute as a 'line' I would have to recreate the graphic.
Depending how close the graphic is to what i want,
I would edit the graphic in photo paint as a BMP,
adding expressions and sometimes completely new drawings if needed.
Finally
Save as jpg 900px wide
this can take around 4 hours per comic

lol, also from that article when on Batman set:
"Brad Anderson mentioned you were very zen on set w/ your headphones. What sort of music did you listen to?
Half the time I wasn't listening to anything. Half the time I'd pretend to listen (to music) and I'd just listen to what everybody else was saying, nodding my head, pretending I couldn't hear."

RING
http://www.theringworld.com/
found out all kinds of weird stuff about the ring movies
firstly they are based on a book, or a few books
ring, ring 2(?) , birthday, spiral, and loop
loop is the only one i knew nothing about
also found out the books are hugely different from the films.
in the books the background story is different,
along the lines of sadako is half woman half man, i.e. with balls,
and she gets raped and swears revenge on the guy who does it, and like, everyone ever.
so she is physic and transmits her curse on to the video tapes,
however rather than coming out of the tv as she does in the movies, she just passes a virus to whoever watches the tape.
which usually manifests itself in making the viewer imagine they are growing old very fast
so yeah, if you want to know more go look on http://www.theringworld.com/
however i am tired and should sleep, long day tomo
