Welcome aboard, me maties!

AG is a Pirates of the Caribbean RPG taking place after Curse of the Black Pearl, and incorporating many of the plots of Dead Man's Chest and At World's End, but is not beholden to follow them exactly, or at all.

Wouldn't it be awesome if we took a thread from AG, or a portion of a thread, and illustrated it and put it together with the text, or made a sort of comic of it? I'd be game for either of those, and I'll do the illustrations, but if we do the second, we would need people to help trim stuff down to dialog, and help with the layout. Is anyone interested in helping? Or does anyone have any nominations for threads that they'd like done?

Except that super ancient one Creejak and I had...can't even remember the name, if only because we're missing some of the really good bits. (stupid hackers!)

After the first comic is done, depending on how long it takes to be done, we may move through and do some more of the threads nominated here, or select other threads to include more characters.

Admiral of the Fleet Posts: 1,525 Group: Lord Admiral Member #1 Joined: 7 December 2006	You can always vote for a second one (but you'd have to use a different account as I don't think it allows you to switch your vote). The only reason I bring this up is that we're looking to have a four way tie. I like the Captain Sparrow thread (I like them all, personally), but I definitely nominated some that are hard to do as a comic. But, hey, we'll manage. Or at least I will on the drawing.

You may kill me, but you may never insult me. Posts: 983 Group: Pirate Lord Member #12 Joined: 7 December 2006	My artistic skills have recently come in at -27592674243, but I'd be happy to help with the dialogue, and suggested layout to go along with it.

Dang. o____o So yeah I voted for that just cuz I'd love to see it drawn out. I could offer some help like sketches maybe but I couldn't help much with final drawings or anything. DX And that's for that one thread. I must admit I haven't read all the others. Thanks again! I'm seriously flattered. <3

Admiral of the Fleet Posts: 1,525 Group: Lord Admiral Member #1 Joined: 7 December 2006	What we'll do, is I'll go ahead and do both the leading contenders, Mishief, and You can't go home again. They'll need to be cut down to dialog, and ideas of what we want for panels, so if anyone has any specific things in there they want to keep, or thread authors will want to help with that, or proof what stuff has been boiled down to, that would be great.

Edit: I forgot, any sort of IC drawings you want to put up, this account can be used for. PM me for the password.... Edited by Alia-Hildwyn, 29 Nov 2009, 03:35 AM.

Admiral of the Fleet Posts: 1,525 Group: Lord Admiral Member #1 Joined: 7 December 2006	Attached the rough (and by rough, I really mean rough, it includes stick figures) draft of the first page of the comic for 'You Can't Go Home Again'. There are a couple minor things that will be changed towards the end. And I'll have to go look up the specifics of how the other character looks for this.

Foot-in-Mouth Disease Posts: 304 Group: Riffraff Mod Member #17 Joined: 9 December 2006	Haha! That looks great so far. Hard to tell what some things are since they are so very rough, but I think I get it. The only thing I would keep in mind is that Keegan meets Alden in the back courtyard outside. >_> But that's technical and not as important. XDXD Can't wait to see more! <3

Admiral of the Fleet Posts: 1,525 Group: Lord Admiral Member #1 Joined: 7 December 2006	Yeah, I had to make a slight change to the courtyard bit being outside, just to sort of save on all the different backgrounds and stuff I'd be drawing from. But it's been quite fun so far to do all the sort of writing out of it all, but it's going to be several pages just to get the first post in the thread done! (not a bad thing, it just means that I cannot to the whole thread, alas, that was a bit overly ambitious).
