Remjin Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Hooray for old and fat! Argh... stupid brain... come up with something clever... you old piece of poo!! I'm going back to killing you with beer... On a serious note... fencing is interesting, I wouldn't mind trying it sometime. Only sword play I ever learned was chinese broadsword (dao, I think) and executioner's knife, neither of which is exactly as precise as fencing looks. Fun and interesting in its own way, though. Gotta stop spending money so I can commission something from Storn... argh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What little epee work I've done pointed out two things: 1) I make a great target, and 2) I make a poor opponent because I'm so slow. But don't let me discourage you -- because it is fun.

death tribble Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. And they are Captain Communist (bit of a stretch for the name don't you think) and Ironskull. Ironskull worked for the equivalent of Viper in my campaign world and is a Trusted Lieutenant sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPMiller Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. I really like Iron Skull Storn. I love the little details like the green glow on the left hand from the weapon, and the little nicks in the armor. Beauty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enforcer84 Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Hey Storn, I was looking through my vast vault of your work this morning (when I should be cleaning) and I was struck again how much your superhero art reminds me of Alan Davis, and that's a definate compliment. The other thing I noticed were I have favorite "Stornistic" qualities. I adore your bluewhite light effects and the green characters. When you design a costume in green, not even a favorite color of mine, they all look outstanding. I don't know what it is, but characters like Catalyst, Cianide, Absinthe, Forceful Leaf, Tachyon, Torque, sickness, and the blind archer/gadgeteer just love the way the colors and the shading work together. There was a guy in all red, but it's only one shade/hue or whatever of red. I'm going to have to scrape the coin to comission similar characters in different mon color schemes. Anyway, just wanted to restate my admiration for you and point out what I like. I hope you will be making GenCon this year! Edit: Cobalt is a good example of a "Blue"...forgot about him.

Storn Posted July 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Chad, thank you for your kind words. I don't think I pencil like Alan Davis, but I ink like Davis's inker, Mark Farmer, a bit. We both have sorta rounded organic, smooth line. But Alan Davis is a huge fav. I just picked up a book about him containing several interviews (of Neary and Farmer too). Good read. Here is an character who is in a cross-dimensional campaign setting.

I was told to do a stun rod. Since the clothes and gun were modern... I decided to do the stun rod as kinda arcane and archaic looking as opposed to a police stun baton...but same size.
