I'll give you the monologue voice overs, but I can't do it now due to overloaded workloads from school. I'll be working on it this upcoming 2 week break.

Hey there, you've probably already looked at this but i wanted to know if it's a better 'cover' design, more cynical and dark as you put it. [link] thanks again!

I must ask you, do you listen to music while writing? If you need a mysterious mood, but you don't have the music, I can always recommend some really good pieces that would really help.

If you ever need some ideas for creatures, settings, etc, i'd be happy to oblige.

Mr-Mc-Twiggy In reply to Cygnus-A [2009-11-06 16:36:55 +0000 UTC]

Yes, i tend to find music that matches a mood, i' dbe happy to listen to ones you suggest!

I appresiate your help.

Mysterious moods could lend itself well to songs such as...

Chukhung, Kobresia, Hyperborea, pretty well the whole Substrata album by Biosphere.

Try that on youtube and see if you like it, if you do, I have more to supply you with

I like the backround quite a bit. The planet itself lends itself to look rather murky, swampy, almost radiated. Now just the font, make it small... And skinnier, similiar to that of the style of Aliens.

Keep the backround, it reflects well on space itself.

Mr-Mc-Twiggy In reply to Cygnus-A [2009-11-06 16:38:53 +0000 UTC]

Right, thanks i'll give it a go.

I'm also going to start getting my character pictures coloured, then adding them to backgrounds. Like the test render of the Alex on Deck one [link] If you have any ideas for charater backgrounds, feel free to share them!

Cygnus-A In reply to Mr-Mc-Twiggy [2009-11-06 23:57:43 +0000 UTC]

I do, but none that would flow well with the story your writing if you know what I mean.

But if I come up with something, then i'll inform you!

Cygnus-A In reply to BlaqueSaber [2009-10-21 06:57:31 +0000 UTC]

It's a character-driven story that revolves around five soldiers and their war on a mysterious planet. It sounds rather simple when I explain it that way, but it was the universe around it I was developing, more so than the actual event.

BTW, no problem, I sketch as well and I need some new poses to work with instead of using the same one over and over again.

BlaqueSaber In reply to Cygnus-A [2009-10-21 07:00:17 +0000 UTC]

I totally understand.
Will you write the story in prose? Comic? Other media (such as a podcast)?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Cygnus-A In reply to BlaqueSaber [2009-10-21 22:33:48 +0000 UTC]

Definately prose, i'm a novice writer, so anything I do now won't be very good; but you have to start somewhere right.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

BlaqueSaber In reply to Cygnus-A [2009-10-22 01:15:07 +0000 UTC]

Yes, that's true. One of the biggest challenges for a lot of writers is getting over that "My stuff sucks, no one will really like it ENOUGH (to buy or whatever)". Some writers never do, those that forge on anyway become writers, those that don't...don't.

Have you thought about doing NANOWRIMO?

There's also this new Create a Character Challenge that I've discovered.

I'm entering both (crazy I know)...

Is the synopsis a part of the story you'll be writing for NanoWrimo?

Cygnus-A In reply to BlaqueSaber [2009-10-22 07:13:48 +0000 UTC]

Yep. It's a general overview, but I know my novel will extend far beyond 50,000 words as I haven't even touched planetside yet.

I love it man! You did a very good job on it, one thing though. The outpost is crossing the middle, which just so happens to possess a supermassive blackhole. Just a clear up, but other than that, you did a very good job on it!

Mr-Mc-Twiggy In reply to Cygnus-A [2009-10-06 17:31:11 +0000 UTC]

ooo, i didn't know that...ah well!
if it's the OP science hq systems, then that's ok cos they can be studying the black hole...If it's the Turapia Outpost, then i'll think of some space phenomina that stops if being destroyed...

Cygnus-A In reply to Mr-Mc-Twiggy [2009-10-07 01:18:35 +0000 UTC]

I'm just spit balling, but maybe you can use this from my story, "The Bermuda Skyway". For me it's an area of the galaxy that humans cannot traverse as they will be killed, for you it could be something else.

"Nova Field (Stars exploding rather often in the area)"
"The Irradiated Zone (Zone of which contains lethal amounts of radiation, standard cruisers cannot be used in this area.)"

"Terminus Systems (An abandoned area of the galaxy)"

Just some suggestions.

hmm those are certainly good ideas, i might just intergrate some into my story, thanks mate!
