keitaro Posted August 25, 2004 Posted August 25, 2004 I read the first episode and will read the nexts. It's very funny. The battle scenes make me laugh. Quote
MisterMattias Posted August 25, 2004 Posted August 25, 2004 Jipay: But why are gungans never cut in slices in those comics ? Well, although I've got around 400 Star Wars minifigs, I don't own a single gungan. And I will never buy one either. I hate the gungans, and if they ever show up in my comics, I'll make sure that they're cut in slices. Besides, when Han Solo and Luke is around, it wouldn't be chronologically OK to use gungans in the same shot, would it? The blood issue hasn't been a problem to others browsing the site I'm storing my comics at. One reason might be that most of the pbase-users are "older", and that they (as well as I) don't think it's a very big deal. I also know that in some places of the world, violence on TV and at the cinema isn't as accepted as here in Sweden. My parents let me go and see "Silence of the Lambs" when I was 11 (15 years ago), and that's just an example. I might have seen too much blood to think about it that much. In some of the episodes, I've written a note warning the viewers for the somewhat violent contents. And yes, when plastic figures are shot, they should melt. But on the other hand, plastic figures can neither talk nor walk. So maybe I should just position them on the set and let people make up their own lines :rolleyes: Blood is easier to draw in Photoshop than trying to make it look like the figs have melted. I could always use a lighter, though... Quote
jonfett Posted August 25, 2004 Posted August 25, 2004 I could always use a lighter, though... Now thats what I call torture! :P Bring on the Gungans!! Jon. Quote
Jipay Posted August 25, 2004 Posted August 25, 2004 Gungan could be accepted as they also exist in the enw episodes... You hate gungans ? then wait for the end of ep VI on the dvd edition... Guess who's partying at the end ? mmmhh, I'm sure you know :P And those Are present in Star wars galaxies. Well all in all, you coudl have bought one just to get a new alien fig. And remember, all the gungans are not jarjar :D 400 minifigs ? damn ! How many final duel in those ? Quote
MisterMattias Posted August 26, 2004 Posted August 26, 2004 Well, I've got about 120 stormies now I think, and almost as many officers. And still around 50 Lukes from Final Duel II, but I've sold most of them to people in this country that didn't have a clue about where to get hold of minifigs :) Actually, my whole stormies collection has cost me nothing in the end, since I've sold other Lego stuff that I didn't need nor want (Ewok catapults, gliders, twin-pods, etc. - I didn't need more than one of each, but I've saved the minifigs B) ). I've bought a bunch of Tusken Raiders on Bricklink, and hopefully I'll find some use for them in my comics. Any ideas are welcome, since I don't quite know what I should let them do. I'm thinking of getting a gungan now, just to be able to use a lighter on him. Thanks for the nice idea you gave me :D Quote
Jipay Posted August 26, 2004 Posted August 26, 2004 120... mmhh that's a good number. I'm also thinking about selling some lukes... Since final duel II was discontinued a while ago, it might be sold easely. Idea with tuskens... Erm, i'm searching one also. I now have 4 of those nice minifigs and I try to find something for the project I have with Apophis (we're trying to create a Lego animated movie) Quote
jonfett Posted August 26, 2004 Posted August 26, 2004 120.. ... ... Wow! I am only on 35 myself but its enough for now. Maybe I should get some more final duel 2's too. I was really impressed by one of your first comics, the one with the shooting range.. it was amazing! I think its my favourite of your comics. Hmm.. as for tuskens, I don't know how you could use them. You are still staying with Han and the guys right? Not going back to the rebels pilots or Luke. Well, you could have a big slaughter.. kind of a spoof of episode 2. But I don't know what the plot is so I can't think what you want to happen. Anyway, good luck and can't wait to read the next one! Jon. Quote
MisterMattias Posted August 26, 2004 Posted August 26, 2004 A big slaughter? No, that'd mean more blood, and I'm not using more blood... :< It's a good idea, but I think that the Sand People are cool people, so I'd rather have them killing some stormies... or maybe the Jawas that have been left helpless out there in the middle of the desert since the droids have stolen and crawled away in their sandcrawler. I think I'll continue with Han and the guys in the next episode, but I've got a lot of people to do follow-ups on. Boba is on his way to Jabba with the new droid. Chewie must end up somewhere after his half of the twin pod crashes. Luke is about to fight a duel in the virtual reality game. The droids... what's supposed to happen to them? The rebels that have stolen the AT-AT must use it for something. And the rebels in the caterpillar tank must do something as well. And I've still got Ties and a Tie Bomber to include, as well as The MF, A-wings and B-wing. I only wish I could have more time for creating new episodes at the moment. I'm doing my best to find time, but I'm working and studying full-time at the moment, so it's not that easy... But you guys are inspiring, so thanks to all who have posted. And to those who have watched this topic as well :) (I don't want to upset people by just continuing a thread that might have lost it's... er... thread... Maybe this one should be locked by now. I'm not exactly writing anything worth reading :P ) Quote
Jipay Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 Well we've never locked any thread here. And as long as you can discuss interesting stuff we don't mind if it's off topic. We are actually going always off topic, this is much more interesting in our opinion :lol: Well I agree on the fact that sand people can be nice guys. In fact maybe you could have made a little side story of a sand people young boy that has to proove his bravour. He could join han or chewie later in the story and become his side kick :P Quote
ApophisV Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 jipay, you haven't seen that star trek voyager episode with the kazon boy?!? :P oh, and actually jipay lied... i have already locked two topics.. ;) Quote
Jipay Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 Damn I forgot you were our local jedi master BJ ! Erm so 2 topics locked, well... erm Anyway, no because I don't like star trek, which is weird considering i'm a big fan of star wars and star gate. Wanna me to wtach your show ? Put star in the title :) Quote
