Trying comics, only to fail spectacularly.

Since one of the pieces was kinda messy, I finally decided to clean it up a bit and add some proper multiply-screen layers.

I'm one of those idiots who uses multiply and screen layer modes to draw fur, apparently. What do you guys think of the new style?

In between writing the storylines, hoarding new drawing tablets and improving our artsy skills, we're also busy working on new packs to be added later on in the game..
 

All hail the Stormrunners!

DarkShadowfax: It's birthday art time! To celebrate my birthday, I created a gloomy rainy piece of art. After playing around with perspectives, new brushes, filters, etcetera, I ended up with this :)

DarkShadowfax: After a way too long hiatus (work and school tends to do that to you), we're back to working on the fiction project! This time not in Twine, because programming it is really, really confusing for two non-IT people.

So we're working in Microsoft Word, and using the Navigation Pane and lots of headings :)

Hi all!
Another screenshot here:


 You'll have probably noticed the new (temporary?) logo design for Astatica. Here on this blog page, the letters are black. In the Twine game, the letters are greyish white for better visibility.

Hello all!
Here's another news post!
Midnight-Oaths, who was previously only involved with the drafts of her own OCs (Eclipse Pack and Yami Pack) and who has been giving me lots of advice, has joined me in writing and drawing for Astatica.
 
Furthermore, our Twine project is sorts of getting somewhere.
Here's a screenshot for you:

Hope you like it thus far!

Hey all!

I'm actually kind of excited to be able to tell you this: I finally started writing my interactive story in Twine. This Twine project will be more game-like than the blogspot variant which you're maybe reading now.
Twine will allow me to easily create a game with all of the Astatica.blogspot elements, but it will also allow you to fill in your name, and to actually grow your stats (think of strength, speed and agility, in the case of Wolf-Born battles).

So this might actually become something good..
So excited!

Love,
DarkShadowfax
