Description (Before I forget - these beautiful frames are made by Tigers-stock)

Weaponry can be read here: [link]

Weaponry is a project I've had on the back burner for some time because it requires a heavy amount of interaction from readers/fans/stalkers/froods in order to work.

So the question is: ARE THERE ENOUGH OF YOU OUT THERE for weaponry to become a tangible thing for your delectation and delight?

β€’What is Weaponry?
Weaponry is a yaoi comic with a 'choose your own adventure' element to it. Basically, the three gents above (in order Gun, Arrow and Blade) are the main protagonists of the story. They are all students at Weaponry Academy, The deHavilland pirate ship, aiming to foster the baddest, boldest, cruelest pirates on the Seven Seas. To earn the Captain's Seal upon graduation entitles them to captain a pirate ship of their own - the Bleriot. At the end of each chapter, I'll post up three small write ups that focus on each of the three protagonists as the 'winner' of the current trial. I will entail what sort of outcome is likely depending on which one the readers choose, and will draw out that storyline according in proper comic form for the next chapter.

As a yaoi pirate adventure story, it's full of plot devices to ensure that the pages are full of a lot of attractive men in varying stages of nakedness, in varying forms of relationships from rivalries to romances.

Is there an interest in this comic were I to start drawing it? I'm considering starting up a website that would have Angel*Down, Weaponry, and 3ninERASE all in one place with an interactive disqus forum capability and a store for print copies of the books, merch etc. It would be done in this sort of rough style and would be in simple colours.

What do you think? Because of the requirement of the fans needing to choose the way the plot unfolds, there needs to be enough enthusiasm for this project in order for it to go ahead any time soon. Thanks for your feedback in advance!

Already read the first few pages, I love the characters already (love Arrow's innocence XD) and the possible story!
Add some more enthusiasm points to your chart, because i'd love to read more!

*tips hat* It'll be a different style from Angel*Down, this will be in soft colours and all pencil art, but I'm hoping it'll suit the world setting and story. I'm starting a website just for the comics - Angel*Down, Weaponry and eventually 3ninERASE when A*D is done. :3

I could be in for it. Just need to keep the website in my tabs section or I forget about things...>-> Haha. However, since I'm already wondering where i can get some of dem booys you got up there, Its probably safe to say i'm interested.

Oh. I was supposed to be actually thinking about the webcomic question, right? Damn. Sorry. Um.

Yes, yes I think I would read this. (Even if only to drool a little.) And I'd love to see your webcomics in one place.

Although, right now, truthfully, what I'd like most is a couple more pages of Angel Down. Because you're coming to a climax, and I want to see how it goes. It's torture waiting for updates.

That would be delicious. O 3 O
I kinda feel like that should be drawn in art nouveau styling...

SashaFitzgerald [2011-07-27 06:48:41 +0000 UTC]

Yes. YES. AND MOAAR YESSSSSSS!!
You draw sexy boys so pretty-like I would definitely read this comic. I think a website featuring all of your comics would be fantastic, and a little shop with it would be a great way to sell related merch. Goodluck!!

tarorae In reply to SashaFitzgerald [2011-07-27 07:00:51 +0000 UTC]

Hee hee! I was hoping you'd support this one. :3

Do you have any suggestions of web hoster for this idea? I'd kind of like to get Angel*Down up somewhere more prominent in addition to my website. Since Volume One will be available in print soon, (only 5 more pages to draw) It'd great to have a platform from which to offer those as well. Not to mention the fact that I have a bunch of different comic projects, and if people are liking my comic work, I'd love to do more of it.

tarorae In reply to Rabscuttle [2011-07-27 06:01:04 +0000 UTC]

Good choice! He's the son of Blackbeard! Very competitive, very cocky, very gung-ho.

Arrow is eager and earnest and seemingly sweet with a frightening, dark secret.

Blade is the runaway heir to the Montblanche Estate, a total golden boy and rather talented in a wide array of skills.

I might be blocking out the pages for this on my vacation. >

My yaoi is plot and character driven, at least? There's always a reason. Though in this case, there's a lot of nastiness considering piracy is all about 'rape and pillage' and all that... Hrm...
