Description Page 3 of my comic-entry for AlexRaccoonGlider 's Castle Calamity Art-Jam.

Following Alex's failure to demolish this castle that (for some reason) needs destroying, Danbuster and co attempt to land a helping hand... with interesting results.

This war on the castle hotted up further, in light of previous epic failures.
Marquila and Albert Einspine attempt to even the score...

Overall

Vision

Originality

Technique

Impact


Here we go, I think I could safely say that this deserves a little critique here, only because I had a good long laugh in this page =3

Vision) Since this is part of the art jam, you clearly understood the rules and you added your special rag-tag cast of chars here for a round of humor and attempts to destroy this pesky castle! The colors and details are bright, colorful, and easy to follow and easy on the eyes! I give this all 5 stars.

Originality) Since this jam allows you to unleash your creativity, you definitely show that in the world of Danbuster and company, each character has their unique way of destroying (or trying to) destroy an unwanted building, even if it has a mind of it's own here, Marquila with the lightning, Einspine with the steam machine, and the others that came before it, gave it their best but bad luck and misfortune befell the group.

Technique) Im giving it 4 stars, like i said in the vision, the use of flash and pre-rendered characters helps create a bright and colorful world as each character unleashes their own powers and abilities to try to destroy the castle before then, I have to give props to Einspine's little steam gizmo here, its probably the most unique machine ive seen in your world!

Overall Impact) A perfect 5 out of 5 stars! This is how I envisioned how you're able to do an art jam of this magnitude and you nailed it nicely! I look foreword to more wonderful works from your talents, Danbuster!

Congratulations =3

Heh, thanks very much!
(Kinda surprised you hadn't commented or critiqued before on the previous pages...)
But yeah, everybody has their methods and a different way to fail... but ultimately, they'll just have to accept that this castle isn't going down for them...

And yes, I've been looking into Einspine's steampunk side - I'll have to work on the design of that small battle-mech there... and try and develop the Spikenik up a bit, too...

Wonder if Einspine is related to Sonic the Hedgehog, since he's loosing golden rings when hurt.

DCLeadboot In reply to RTJDudek [2014-03-31 20:43:07 +0000 UTC]

Nah, no relation - he's just throwing rings about to make that deliberate reference for a cheap laugh...

BluebottleFlyer [2014-03-06 23:54:01 +0000 UTC]

Valiant but vain efforts there, with some excellent gags to boot - clever reference to a certain blue hedgehog with Einspine there.

They did their best, that's for sure! ;;
Einspine: A hedgehog must always carry a few gold rings with him, in case of an emergency...

Nikola Tesla would have loved the first part
of the comic!I would like to see if the castle will
play a game of tennis with me in the future.

DCLeadboot In reply to KosmoKOYOTE [2014-03-07 18:29:31 +0000 UTC]

Heh, heh... reckon Tesla would be pretty impressed with Marquila's ability to conduct lightning, and with some of the crazy steampunk devices of Einspine, too!
Thanks very much!

Especially some of contraptions that actually use Tesla power...
Einspine himself carries a portable Tesla-rod that he uses to jump-start machines where the batteries have gone flat!

Seems this castle can take anything, as well as send it back. I guess those rings were a real lifesaver for Einspine there!

It's a tough castle, indeed... ;;
