Hey Lenny,
Thanx alot, man! You touched on alot of what I am going for with this part
of my lil' world o' Velaria. I think in order to produce a good storyline,
the audience must understand the back story implicitly. My stories, as they
exist on the internet, are riddled with holes which I intend to patch up.
Therefore I decided to advance on the back story before I go any further
with my current storyline. (a reason why I'm not on the IOM...) I want to
thank you, among all the others that posted about my stuff, for taking the
time to explore my characters and stories as I've done to many others' in
.Castle. :)
I must say, though, I'm a fan of your stuff as well. You've got a very
distinctive style with your stuff which stands out, and I think that's very
admirable. (Ever considered a crossover/collaboration story? hehehe)
To answer your questions:
1.) Brolhern's legs are done with black paint on red legs. I was going for a
"draped" effect like the Adventurer's mummy.
2.) Thanx. I'm going to do the effects treatment to everyone soon.
3.) Thanx again! I hesitated at first, for fear of the copyright
infringement lawsuit alone. However, in the end I think it does him justice.
After all, both Vader and Kazahad are bad muthers. lol.
4.) I've always been an avid fan of ancient greece and rome, especially the
city of Atlantis. In Plato's writings of Atlantis, he describes an almost
Eutopian society where the god Poseidon's offspring ruled. Guess that was a
major influence to my stories?

Thanx again Lenny!

1)brolhern's legs are really cool. such a good effect.. with black paint?
2)lymdralis's picture (the one with the effects) looks ubercool. the faceless
grey, coupled with the (whats the word) symbol of the chain, and your effects
really give the impression of diety.
3)bold move putting vader's mask on kazahad; but somehow i think it works.
4)having each in a stylistic pose, with their weapon/tool and their crystal/gem
gives the impression of a pantheon of gods.

overall i say a success!
keep it up!

peace

Hey guys!
First, lemme say thank you to everyone who posted feedback on the first
excerpt. I'm working hard on the illustrated version, which will come out
soon, so sit tight for more updates.
I'll post the companion chapter to the previous soon, so look for that also.
Until then, I've uploaded some preliminary pics to my brickshelf account.
check em out:

let me know what you think!

I'm out.
