Owen Heitmann -The Greatest Story Ever Told- Adelaide (FIN!)

Postby Owen Heitmann on Sat Jun 10, 2006 12:29 pm

Okay, "The Greatest Story Ever Told" is just a working title, but the subject field wasn't long enough for me to add that.

I haven't started yet - I thought I'd create this thread now to save time.

I've had 8 hours sleep, a shower, four and a bit weetbix with sugar, two pieces of toast with honey, and a glass of orange juice.

I have a healthy selection of textas, muchos sheets of paper, one and a half kilos of unsalted peanuts, a salt shaker, a 1.5 litre water bottle and an extensive MP3 playlist.

I'm aiming for 24 pages and have truly no idea what I'm going to write about.

It's 11:00 am by my clock. Now I'm about to go look at the random inserts and join in the fun!

Turns out "The Greatest Story Ever Told" is the real title after all.

that guy looks like one of your housemates; have you been sketching people while they sleep again?
And why do they get all the fun?

Mark, it's actually based on a guy I saw at the Cranker last night.

The effect in panel 2 really didn't work the way I wanted. I might redo it later if there's time.

Dave - thank you kindly.

Tonia - I have discovered that the secret to inking quickly is doing it really badly. I hate using textas, but it's the only option for the challenge. (And I'm planning at least one musical reference just for you.)

It's somewhat disheartening to realise I've only just qualified for the shortest category - and I haven't even got to any of the inserts yet! They're coming up though.

And what have we here? I do believe it's one of those dialogue inserts.

And just for good measure, I've not only repeated the dialogue insert but also included a second one free of charge.
