It's been a blast reading “Dead Wrong.” Made all the more fun because it is based on a true story. Or is it inspired by actual events? Either way, awesome. And might I add, if I was to be taken out by a vampire, or any other apocalyptic figure, I would definitely want it to be THAT vampire! </p> http://agitainment.com/ics/forum/topic/welcome-to-dead-wrong#post-193 Sat, 17 Sep 2011 19:44:44 +0000 admin 193@http://agitainment.com/ics/forum/ <p>Thanks for checking out our story, "Dead Wrong!"

If you've read the book (which is a must, since it's probably THE foundational work for students wishing to learn to draw comics), they don't cover much new ground in the movie version that's not in the book. </p> <p>However, there's a VERY short demonstration (about 7 seconds) of using a brush to ink. It's at 2:55. Note the thin to thick to thin lines done in a single stroke!</p> <p>After this is a demonstration of HOW TO CLEAN YOUR BRUSH! This is a very important yet neglected bit of information that I've found is not usually covered in most inking books. It's at 3:03.</p> <p>Here's the link. It doesn't play while embedded, so you'll need to click it once till it says "Embedding disabled by request", then move your cursor inside the image till it becomes a pointing hand and click again. This will take you to the original clip in Youtube.</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3y6k_vk_Vg" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3y6k_vk_Vg</a> </p> http://agitainment.com/ics/forum/topic/how-to-hold-the-brush#post-131 Mon, 11 May 2009 21:40:35 +0000 admin 131@http://agitainment.com/ics/forum/ <p>Though not recommended for general comic book inking, this grip can be useful for making long lines of consistent thickness as you slide the side of your hand across the drawing surface for support:</p> <p><img src="http://agitainment.com/ics/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/Chinese_brush_hold.jpg"> </p> http://agitainment.com/ics/forum/topic/welcome-to-dropshadow-hunted#post-151 Sun, 30 May 2010 12:08:32 +0000 admin 151@http://agitainment.com/ics/forum/ <p>Please leave comments below on our new story "Dropshadow: Hunted".

Couple of comments about Iron Harvest. . . first off, terrific art as per usual Rick. Good concept Dan, but it came to a screeching halt before it even really started. Honestly, the way the story began, I thought we were in for a techno mystery! Instead, the story tried to go out with a shock finish that, in my honest opinion, missed the mark.<br /> I wonder if the story would have been served better by having the action from the victims perspective? A father carrying his child perhaps? Running for his life from a ruthless fighter pilot. Wondering aloud how a pilot could be so cruel as to hunt them so ruthlessly. He covers his daughter's eyes as the bullets finally hit home! Fade to a kid playing a video game. . . bragging about his skill at the Iron Harvest Video Game. . . "Yes!. . .Father and daughter hit! 10,000 point bonus!"<br /> Please take this constructively men. . . It's just my opinion! </p> http://agitainment.com/ics/forum/topic/part-1#post-134 Sun, 24 May 2009 11:29:48 +0000 admin 134@http://agitainment.com/ics/forum/ <p>Hey, gang.</p> <p>Thanks for checking out our brand new feature, "Iron Harvest"!
