DusterBoy Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Good to see something a little different, Storn. I just want to bring up something that I'm sure you already know - that the term "martial arts" also includes styles like boxing, wrestling, fencing, etc. A fight scene set in the "west" shouldn't look like something from a Hong Kong movie, no matter how much the writer enjoys them. I'm really enjoying "Catspaw", so please keep up the (extremely) good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korvar Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Our martial arts fight continues with a new page today! Come check out Catspaw! Page 9 of Chapter One is up! http://www.webcomicsnation.com/storn/ I got Catspaw added to Piperka.net, a useful webcomics tracker. Once you've set up an account and subscribed to Catspaw, your Piperka update page will let you know when there are unread pages. It's especially good when there's a large archive you want to work through, as it will keep track of where you left off, and take you to the next unread strip. Possibly not useful to people who only want to read Storn's work, but if you've subscribed to over 30 webcomics... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, it's also called 'Free Running', and it's actually based of Jackie Chan movies, the older ones where he did his own stunts and the like.

It also allowed leap tricks that normal leaping couldn't account for. If the Flight (however it was purchased) has the Limitation Ground Surface Contact Only -- how do you use it to leap and thereby break contact with said Ground Surface? Not to mention that pesky Turn Mode that Flight (however achieved) has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention that pesky Turn Mode that Flight (however achieved) has. I think we actually phrased it as "Must start and end on a surface" - and we also had use as superleap. One was for a Jackie Chan / Captain America "bounce up a corner to get to the roof" or "flagpole to awning to ledge to roof" series of jumps. Mostly straight up - flight worked best that way for us.

Congratulations on pointing out the skull-whomping stupidity of the Movement Usable As some other damn type of movement advantage. Is it so frickin' hard to just write up a movement Multipower? The parkour picture is tres' cool though. The clothing drapes well and reflects the movement of the pose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
