Pay tribute to your lord.

Lord ghastly that is.

Sure we can continue to pry into what is wrong with him, and wish him the best, but instead of being all sad that things are going through a rough patch for him, how about we celebrate his work? Figured since he’s going to be on a bit of a break, maybe we should take this opportunity to do what we can to give him a little treat. How about a huge wave of fan art? Was thinking of ghastly and have begun work on something rather special (at least considering my severely limited skill, in quite a wide range of art oriented disciplines) to present, but I always feel like such a huge dork being the only one.

So what do you say?

Fan art storm to celebrate the work of ghastly?

Of course we(I think I speak for more than just myself here) DO wish you the best, but this seems oddly more appropriate for someone who has always been an icon of joy.

[First topic start, woooo. Likely to totally flop though :P]

I think that that's a damn good idea

I'm into this idea. How loosely do we define art?

Hopefully pretty flexibly.

I always thought that the state-sponsored definition of pornography was "any image that is made soley for the purpose of sexual gratification," and it is there where the never-ending debate about art vs. smut rears its ugly head.
But of course us folk around here have never seemed to be constrained by silly boundries

Not that I was implying that you were going to draw Ghastly's Ghastly Glorious Gang Bang or anything like that

Please forgive me, it's been a long, l-o-n-g day...

I was thinking something similar. I had an idea for a guest comic anyway, and this sounds like a good time as any...

And just why not?

Honestly young lady, your country experiences one coup, and suddenly you're all moral this and "no, lets not do that nude scene anymore" that.

I hereby offer the IRC channel for discussing any group projects for Ghastly in a more... real time setting.

and no, this isn't a shameless plug for the IRC channel.

irc.sorcery.net #ghastlycomic

As it is, my talents are limited but if I possessed the ability to put pencil to paper or brush to canvas I would hop on it. If I figure anything out, I'll be the first to know.

Capital Idea.

I sketched out an idea for a guest comic a few years ago... I guess this is a good time to finish it up.

This will give me an excuse to finish the Tentacle Monster Poser figures.

My art skills are terrible, so if this happens to destroy any of you because its THAT bad, I'm truely sorry, but This is the first phase of my tribute. It should be pretty obvious who it is, but what it is might be a bit more fuzzy. It will eventually be one of the corners of the bar, and the walls are actually taken straight from the comic, but the floors aren't because i couldn't find any shots of the ground. Later I'll find some that tile better, but here goes [btw, it doesn't carry well in this picture obviously, but nort is animated, but currently lacks a complete set, and all he does is say his name :P]

Forgive please that he looks kind of like a propane tank with eyes :P
No need to tell me how great it is and pet my ego, because it will get better in time once i get a bit more of the scene done.

edit : hmm.. photobucket seems to have shrunk it and made it very hard to see.

yes photobucket lmits things by file size, shrinking is one ofh te wasy it will do this. try saving the initial grab as a medium quality jpeg. or use image bucket.

Well, I never!

My Good Sir, I'll have you know that this fair land is still without a goverment, and far be it for me to deny anyone their wildly-writhing-limber-oiled-up-nude-scenes. In fact, as far as I'm concerned I strongly believe that what this country needs is a well run wildly-writhing-limber-oiled-up-nude oligarchy.

A while back I promised everyone a picture of me in the peep thong... I might not be very atistic but I could contribute that?

Aeridus · Post by **Aeridus** » Thu Jul 20, 2006 7:45 pm

Of course! We'd even pay to see that!

I wish I could, but alas - IRC has been out of my range for eons.
No funds, no sneaky code and worse yet - I'm not computer savvy, so I haven't figured out how to get around my constantly changing IP from being a pirate... *sigh*

On the main topic - I do paint, though, I've never tried to do comic art. This will be a challenge I'm happy to step up to.

Oh suckling Cuthulu! It took me months to get over my Sims addiction - loved killing those bastards off and making lifestyle households...hours of entertainment, when you have the time.

My busy life would be flushed down the Dark Overlords' commode if a GGS came out.

Actually, that is a screen shot from a game.
