Kirby Super Star: Milkyway Wishes (Old development thread)

[Arek the Absolute]

I would like to yet again welcome Prophecy to the project :wink:

[RedleMas]

I wouldn't get bent out of shape over the delay Arek. If you rush things, you end up with a half-assed collaboration that is not worthy of the name Kirby. Just think about how awsome it will be when its done!

I cant do any writing yet, but Im still good at giving support :D !

[Oltri]

I just had to post this:

OMGCONSPIRACY!!1one

>__>

[KWarp]

ART WIPS ARE DUE IN 3 DAYS!!!(EDIT: 10 days)

Exceptions:
G-man's got an extra week due to a death in the family. :(
Hock?

Make sure to double check page 66 for your assignment.

[Arek the Absolute]

KWarp and I talked a little today and we got some awesome stuff done. Ain't gonna say here. If ya see me on mIRC, ask me and I will tell ya what is goin down.

[RedleMas]

Is it anything that a writer needs to know, and what is mIRC?

[OverCoat]

and what is mIRC?

mIRC is a great [probably best] IRC client. IRC is "Internet Relay Chat," which is self explanatory. Anyway, google it and you'll know.

[gleipnir binds]

and what is mIRC?

SATAN HIMSELF!!!!

...

no seriously. It's just a chat thing similar to an im chatroom but with a bunch of /commands and you can download stuff off the different channels and stuff... but it's confusing as hell... I gave up after the 20th failed download... -_-

[Geoffrey Taucer]

My track is finished and submitted early as a teaser (as per Arek's instructions).

Usa: sorry I couldn't run it by you first, but Arek really wanted me to get it in, and to be honest, so did I. I ran the final version by Zircon before sending it in, and he said it was good.

Arek and KWarp: I'll send you the track in whatever format/bitrate you like next time I catch you on AIM.

[Arek the Absolute]

Hehe....this is going to be so awesome...

[Monobrow]

Okay, well, if anyone wants me to critique ANYTHING (I think I am a pretty good critic), just link me to something. I want this project to work, and I find that I am at my best when I'm telling other people what to do. -_- So whether it be music or artwork, just link me to whatever, and I will try to give some very constructive criticism, and if you would prefer it to be private, no problem. I will pm you or whatever.

So if you aren't sure about something, or just want a little input, send it my way (But send it to KWarp and Arek first since they are the project leaders and bleuab lahjsha :P )

DISCLAIMER THOUGH: I AM NOT THe FINAL SAY in ANYTHING SO DON'T TELL AREK WHEN I DO BAD THAT I SAID "this or that" blahrlaghb

No seriously, send me stuff. :)

[Arek the Absolute]

New position added to team - Project critic
New position filled by - Monobrow
:)

[KWarp]

Critics suck.*SHOT!*

I'm a bit too soft for my own good anyway. Welcome aboard. Can I see your resume? :)

[KyleJCrb]

My criticism for this project: IT SUCKS.

Ohwait, it's not even out yet. Damn. :P

[Arek the Absolute]

Very very important stuff.
While at work today, the nintendo rep came in to do his usual routine of changing out advertisements and such. Never meeting the the guy in person, I said hello and introduced myself. From there, we talked for a good three hours about games and what not. After helping some customers while he worked on some displays, I asked him if he knew about Ocremix. He said he went there time to time. I told him about the site projects portion of the forum and about all the site projects *yes all, you bastards. I ain't gonna just put my project in the limelight :)*. He was thrilled over them all. He was most excited about SoS and MWW. He told me that Nintendo was looking out for all sorts of fan projects, and he said that mine sounded awesome. He said that he might get this featured. That made me VERY happy.
He said that he would check out the forums when he got home after going to the other stores and doing his routine. I hope he posts here.
Rich Mears was his name. He said he was going to be at E3 too. Can't wait to see him there. I gots me da hookups if I want to get to the front of line for anything Nintendo :o
*Don't get mad at me for saying that Rick >.>*

[KWarp]

<3 Arek.

Oh, by the way, we need to talk about website design as there's been no talk at all about it... well, ever. :? If anyone has some useful input about the subject (stuff to look out for, common problems, good approaches, etc.) I'd be more than happy to hear it. :)

[KyleJCrb]

That is really cool. Be sure to let Rick know that I'm willing to drop as much information regarding SoS as I am able to.

I never heard of a Gamecrazy that gets regular visits from Nintendo reps, but then again, California is completely batshit crazy.

We get visits from Nintendo once a week. They send in different guys each time.

Awesome news. Here's hoping he doesn't head into Unmod.

[Slash5150]

I just now saw this but I'd be willing to help toss some art up for covers (I know I'm a bit late but I just now found this)

~votes for there to be an art request thread~

[Rexy]

Haha, I was about to say if you're missing a few people on the art team I might give it a shot. I'm usually better at hand-drawn stuff than computer stuff anyways :P

Here's some examples I've done, although they're not Kirby though.

Example 1 - Crash Bandicoot "Outdoor Showers" (http://pictures.fanart-central.net/r/Rexy/78298.jpg)
Example 2 - Neopets "Dawn of the Mynci" (http://pictures.fanart-central.net/r/Rexy/83168.jpg)
Example 3 - Pinocchio "The Happy Little Puppet" (http://pictures.fanart-central.net/r/Rexy/106242.jpg)

I'd do anything to help a fellow coordinator :)

[KWarp]

Hey Rexy, you've got some good art there. I'm pretty sure there's a couple unclaimed bits left. Let's see now...
Copy-
Parasol-
Beam-
Hammer-
Inside Nova (3 or 4)-

PM me and we'll talk. :)

I just now saw this but I'd be willing to help toss some art up for covers
Not sure what you mean there. =\ Are you talking about the planet covers?

[Cyan_Ide]

DON'T LET HER FOOL YOU! She causally forgot to mention one other piece of art of hers, one that I will now reveal to you....BARON PRAXIS!!!

...you're lucky, Rexy, I couldn't find it. ;)

Welcome aboard...I think. :D

[gleipnir binds]

there's a couple unclaimed bits left. Let's see now...
Copy-
Parasol-
Beam-
Hammer-

Ooo you think I could try the parasol one? (only one I really remember -_-) I'm no good at coloring though and my scanner is kinda crap... I could give it a shot though

[Rexy]

Hahaha, holy KS Cyan_Ide. :P

As much as I want to show one of my images of the Baron, I don't really think they can match up in quality - and in some cases, seriousness - to what I showed in my initial art post. Nice try anyway.

Still yeah, I'm ready for KWarp's next commands, per se. :)

[KWarp]

I would like to welcome Rexy to the art team. :)

[gleipnir binds]

http://img376.imageshack.us/img376/6741/picture5hy.png

quickie. As you can see I tend to go overboard with shading. Is there any darker themed or looking pictures you need? I could give them a shot if you like the style although everything would needx ot be hand drawn since all I've got is ms paint and I'm kinda lasy to bother learning anything else right now.

[KWarp]

I appreciate the offer, but you don't seem 100% confident in your drawing and technical abilities, so I'll have to decline. :( I'll be sure to contact you if something comes up.

[gleipnir binds]

meh. ok

[Arek the Absolute]

In this situation, I would like to quote the many many great people from forums past and present...
"wut?"

[KWarp]

I think I remember why I originally set the WIP deadline for the 9th...

.. I have finals all this week. -_-;

-Cyan's on time
-Neo's on time
-CareFree Captain is late and has been out of contact
-G Man is late EDIT: but has turned in his WIP.
-Oltri is late and has been in contact. Shame on you. ;[

My time on these boards this week will be sparse, if any.

[Rexy]

Well I ain't too far with my proposed sketches for the copy and hammer abilities. I should be able to have them ready by the deadline I was at least given.

Mind you, it's not finals that are trying their best to hold me back from my work; it's Harvest Moon >.> Still, I will be there. I promise.

[The G-Man]

I am actually here. I just don't have very much internet access at home since I've moved. And since school has started up again, and along with work, I haven't had much time as I'd like to say something. Expect something within 10 hours though.

EDIT: The WiP has been sent to Arek.

[Kirbymixer]

:( I'm really sorry for not having my WIP ready on time. I'm currently REALLY busy with school, and next week I won't probably even be able to have time left for a forumlife :(. I'll post my wip as soon as possible.

[Arek the Absolute]

I highly appreciate you two checking in and reporting to us your current status. Thanks guys.
Soraya, I need a pm from you asap..

[Oltri]

I had planned on submitting stuff today >>;; I forgot to post and mention that Monday is not a good deadline day for me, since I have school all day and don't get back until late >_<

I'll have something completed either today or early tomorrow (no school today).

[KWarp]

Echoing what Arek said. Thanks for checking in guys (+ Oltri).

[NeoForte]

I'm here, I showed Kwarp the 2 WIPs I made, sorry I would have more but my teacher (for 3 classes) is a major ass and is making me do 30 models that are due next week (and by models I mean 3D game models all textured, placed in Unreal and looking good....sigh ><)

[Oltri]

Agh..

Can anyone send me examples of colouring styles we can use? There was a piece that was water-colourish a while ago but I don't know where it is now.

[Arek the Absolute]

Mazedude has completed his songs. Good stuff.
Things are starting to wrap up in the music corner. Almost time for the writing.

Musicians, please sennd me the most recent versions of all your songs. It is really really really needed. Thanks.

[KWarp]

I'll start getting to work on the Storybook again. Expect something by Sunday if my week isn't too stressful. :)

ZZZZzzzzZZZZZzzz....HUZZA.. what? Waida Minuet! I'm a writer! Yay! I'm not worthless no more!!

:cry: ::sniff: I'm so happy...

[Arek the Absolute]

Alright guys, now that the project is winding down, there is something huge and very important that I will be needing from you guys.
1) A picture of yourself that we can use for your bio on our project website
2) A written bio about you. It should be formatted as like diz:
(a greeting from you)
(A little about yourself)
(Why you joined the project)

So basically.....here is an example:

Hello there, I am Arek the absolute. blah blah blah blah

I am 18 years old and currently working and in college etc etc

I joined the project because I thought kirby is cute and I was like zomg kawaii etc etc etc

-----

This is very very important and I need both the pictures and the bio to be done and sent to me AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! Please send them to my pm box when you are done.
Thanks guys!

[RedleMas]

Is it possible for me to mail it to you via AIM mail? I dont have the whole PM message thing down.

[Hemophiliac]

Agh..

Can anyone send me examples of colouring styles we can use? There was a piece that was water-colourish a while ago but I don't know where it is now.

<Removed Link>
I sent Oltri a PM with that pic. Didn't want to show off all the art in the thread. ^_^; I haven't heard from Oltri in a week though. >.>
~KWarp

are you talking about this?

[Oltri]

>_______>

Sorry, it's been a stupid week(s???) >_>;; I will try to get at least Mirror Kirby finished, but I probably won't be able to post it until Monday 'cause of New Year's.

I'll try to finish one part of Mirror Kirby tonight or something =[

[Hock]

Do you want a pic/bio even for useless people like me? XD

Except, I'm still doing ONE more thing that KWarp really wants me to do. ... >_>

I'm going to work less damn it. I got a 35 cent raise and I need to clean my room and move out soon D: And I'm barely keeping my head above the homework water this quarter too. One extra class from before.

[MagiNinjA]

hi guys.

i have value now. Pwn.

and do the writers submit a pic+bio too?

[KWarp]

Hmm.. I would say not immediately. Once some work has been done with the writing (and everyone has some job security =P), then we'll start thinking about that. :wink:

Egh, I know the feeling. One extra class this semester too, and after-school sports don't help. =\

EDIT: Nothing happened at VGF. ;_;

[Rexy]

I've had my sketches done for a while; they're scanned on the comp, it's just that I need to make some light adjustments to their presentation before I send them off to you (the scanner takes them in very HUGE and I don't want that X_x).

[Arek the Absolute]

so people are like "is the project dead"
hell nah it isn't!
Just because there hasn't been a post for like a week doesn't mean this is dead. We are all workin hard on gettin dis shizza out there so you can all drool at its glorious awesomeness.

Just a couple of announcements though:
1)KWarp and I are going to be on VGF tonight, so listen up
2) Artists, DON'T SHOW YOUR WORK TO PEOPLE! JUST SHOW YOUR WORK TO FELLOW ARTISTS AND THAT IS IT! Neo...I am looking at you....

[Oltri]

I have one thing finished but..

I messed up on the colouring >__< It ended up cel-shaded. Filters make it look worse.

If anyone can help me alter it to make it look like the style that it should be go ahead.

If not, I'll try again and see what I can do.

Err... I don't know how I can show the picture to project people only.. so I just uploaded it to http://photobucket.com/albums/e271/mwwproject/oltri/

I guess the artists can upload their stuff there (make a folder with your username?). Username is mwwproject and the password is the last password for the storybook. View only is the last password plus an "s". So if the password was butter, view only would be butters.

[Arek the Absolute]

that pic looks awesome....too bad it isn't in the style.....I will try to force kwarp to make an exception XD

[KWarp]

You guys are weird. :?

Oltri: I see an empty album.
Arek: IT'S ON!!! HELL YEAHZ!!! :D :D

[NeoForte]

What was that look for? I know I like showing my stuff off but thats why I did new WIPs for your eyes only >.> (at least I only show those off at the IRC channel ; ; )

Anyway I'll start up with lots of stuff soon...if I fail my class of course ^^ Honestly I think I am but oh well (DAMN YOU UNREAL!).

[Oltri]

You have to click on the subfolder >_>

I just realized it's missing the star things anyway -_-;;

[KWarp]

I've been working on my admin duties quite a bit this week despite having waaaay too much homework. There are a couple of applicants so far who seem to be quite skilled. I'll have an official announcement of who won sometime tomorrow.

Tonight I've got my school's Winter Formal to prepare for. :wink:

School Dance dude. :wink:

I would like to welcome Watkinzez and Sam (nickname: olie!) to the comic art team!!
It's a lot of comic work, so I figure two artists will make things all the better. :)

More details will be revealed when I actually have some damn time. Honestly my life has never been busier these last 2 weeks. >_<

[watkinzez]

Huzzah. I hope I can keep up to the standard that the rest of the project adheres to. :)

K, it comes down like this.

Upon a quick Google search, Watkinzez simply turns up a series of message boards he visits. Boy was I surprised when he drew up this. (http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/7325/kirbycomic6tt.jpg) Seems you can't always trust Google. :wink:

Sam's shown me a couple (http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/9646/frogshirt5eq.jpg) of works (http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/5118/sample17ik.jpg) he's made. He's proven himself capable, and I look forward to seeing some comic work EDIT: He sent me them just now. All I can say is WHOA AWESOME. Can't show it here for spoiler reasons.

Sorry I've been so vague and mysterious this week. <(^_^; )> A lot of my admin duties have been handled internally with recruiting new art staff, so I've been pretty busy. I swear I'll have a new storybook version up by the end of next week at absolute latest.

[KWarp]

Oh goodness no! Hock had no idea what he was doing. XD

Arek, we gotta chat. Also, Neo, have you done anything with the Metaknight incorporation past those storyboards?

[NeoForte]

A few more practice sketches to get down Meta-Knight as good as I can but as part of actual WIP for the book no. I have no real clue how you guys want to go ahead with that cause unlike the Power WIPs, Meta-Knight and Marx should kinda reflect was is being said in the story aspect. Anyway I guess we gotta talk about that.

[Geoffrey Taucer]

HAHAHAHA!

The teaser has been posted!

[KWarp]

Taucer FTW!

I've been recording a couple AVI movies from KSS for reference for the more cutscenish moments of MWW. I have to say, no matter how many times I play though Kirby Super Star, it's always a freaking blast! :D The clips will be up on Google Video shortly.

One More Thing. (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6181871993599985409&q=milky+way) :wink:

I just decided I'm going to start up a new WIP. I don't like the last one and can't make anything of it anymore. Sorry :(

[Rexy]

Just out of question, when's the next art WIP deadline? Or is it all open for when we could send in our next drafts?

[Arek the Absolute]

I just decided I'm going to start up a new WIP. I don't like the last one and can't make anything of it anymore. Sorry :(
Whatever works homie. Like I have been saying, I trust you. Do what you think is right.

Also

WHERE ARE MY BIO'S?
I only have a few. EVERY MEMBER OF THIS PROJECT IS TO SEND ME ONE ASAP.
The sooner we get them in, the sooner I can have the site up.
This is no joke guys, please get send them in ASAP

[NeoForte]

I'll get right on it, in the mean time lets have some Kirby Humor!

I forgot where I found this one, but I find it funny (I think it was in 4chan):

[KWarp]

I'm looking for an artist who can make two pages of art in this highly refined, blurry style:

http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/2889/blurry1xn.jpg
aka Detail Shots

KWarp11: looking for something like that
KWarp11: know anyone that can do it?
Hock1215: Hm. All you do is airbrush that stuff and then blur it in Photoshop... o_O
Hock1215: Or run a few filters to make it look like a work of art
KWarp11: nice, so it's pretty simple work for most artists do right?
Hock1215: Well yeah. Although that might be hand-painted
Hock1215: It's so hard to tell these days. Digital Art has evolved so much

Why am I looking for art like this? That's a secret. :wink:

[OverCoat]

The blurredness looks more like part of the JPG compression to me :P

But that's an interesting style, barring the blur.

[Arek the Absolute]

Why am I looking for art like this? That's a secret. :wink:

So secret that he hasn't even told me 0.0

[KWarp]

Updated Storybook: http://www.kwarp.com/storage/demo2.html

*long sleep*

[Kirbymixer]

^ I've send you a PM with my new WIP on the moment you posted that storybook >__>. So there should still be one WIP included.

[Hock]

As I said, I want to do it, but... I'm Hock D: The LOSER. I'll focus on giving you a Nova goodie and that's that. :P

[Hock]

AAAAH you put my WIP of it in the book XD;; Awww jeeze. Talk about a motivator ^_^;;


HAWT PHOTOSHOP TIPPZ for people who take up this detailed-but-blurry picture assignment:

circular-Select the important parts (characters), feather the selection by a good amount, and run a Lens Blur on the piece! That's new in Photoshop CS2 I think, so I can always do it for you if you don't have CS2. "You" being... you know, whoever you are that does this. XP

[watkinzez]

Should be able to get something in this time tomorrow.

[Arek the Absolute]

drawbacks drawbacks drawbacks
the more the project gets delayed, the less of a chance we get to be in NP
lets get this done. I really want to be in it dang it

[Jillian Aversa]

Why does the thread title say "Kirky"? 8O

Anyway, I think Roe and I's collab dissolved a while ago, so you can take my name off the list. :P

[Arek the Absolute]

why did it say kirky...
KYLE!!!!

[KyleJCrb]

why did it say kirky...
KYLE!!!!

That one wasn't me, :lol:. You see, I don't go into other peoples' threads and edit their posts. :P

[KWarp]

Me neither.. usually. >.>

I've had no luck finding a new artist. Hemo could probably do it actually, but I haven't heard from him in a month. Where is he?

[Rexy]

He usually lurks around MSN when I sometimes come on. If I see him I'll bring up the subject and see what he thinks.

[Arek the Absolute]

why did it say kirky...
KYLE!!!!

That one wasn't me, :lol:. You see, I don't go into other peoples' threads and edit their posts. :P

An act as juvenile as this has to have been done by someone......
Guilty until proven innocent :D

[Rexy]

We could always ask DarkeSword, but does he have time to check IPs on edited posts? You be the judge. :?

[DarkeSword]

I'll strip powers from the both of you if you don't cut it out. :roll:

[KyleJCrb]

I'll strip powers from the both of you if you don't cut it out. :roll:

If I did it, I'd have said so. I have no reason to edit Arek's posts, and don't want to cause problems for either of our projects.

Let's get back to the topic.

[Arek the Absolute]

It was no big deal man.....
Chillax darkemang

[KWarp]

Be understanding Arek, the DS Lite has completely sold out and.. well.. the DS Dark still remains. :?

:P

I just wanna say JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOaaaaaaaaaah

Be understanding Arek, the DS Lite has completely sold out and.. well.. the DS Dark still remains. :?

Mario Fart again, eh? :P

[KWarp]

Whether that was intentional or not...

*falls off chair laughing* :lol:

[Arek the Absolute]

Music progress - 90%
Art progress - ??%

Predicted release month - June

[KWarp]

WAKE UP CALL! LET'S GET THIS PROJECT MOVING AGAIN!!! :)

Art = 70%
Writing = 0%

Arek we have to get started on writing right away.

[NeoForte]

LOL thats the spirit Kwarp! Anyway I'll try to get more stuff done but I'll be heading to California this week for GDC. So I'll be back in one week. See you guys later!

[gleipnir binds]

This project is looking dead T_T Hope it's coming along behind the scenes.

[The Final Minuet]

Out of curiosity, what is the writing portion of this project? Is it for the CD insert?

[I.Medley]

It's for the storybook.

[Arek the Absolute]

This project is looking dead T_T Hope it's coming along behind the scenes.
it is dead
cyan killed it a long time ago

This is no lie.

[KWarp]

Hey guys, currently it's my spring break. If it's anyone else's please report in (reply). I need to know who can get to work.

Also, Hock needs a few pictures of piano keys shot at weird angles in order to complete the Nova collage he's working on. Does anyone know where to find some or have the resources to make one?

[Kirbymixer]

Will an electric keyboard's keys work?

KWarp: Yeah, probably. Take a look at Nova (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7090315428932604254) and a bunch of pictures and tell me how it comes out. :wink:

[Arek the Absolute]

Just a quick note
My birthday on April third......which is 6 days away :D

[OverCoat]

Let's give Arek a birthday present e.g. Milkyway Wishes

[The Mutericator]

Let's drop the storybook half and do the part everyone is looking forward to - the remixes. I don't want to see this die...

[KyleJCrb]

Let's drop the storybook half and do the part everyone is looking forward to - the remixes. I don't want to see this die...

Ouch...The storybook is what makes this project so unique. Progress is slow, yes, but I don't think Arek and KWarp are going to let it die. Have some patience.

[OverCoat]

Let's drop the storybook half and do the part everyone is looking forward to - the remixes.

hahahaha

No trust me the storybook will be totally worth it

p.s. who are you LoL~!!

[KWarp]

Hmm.. :?

March has been a crippling month for everyone. To my understanding next to nothing has been done for this project. Believe me, I've felt the crippling effects myself. My life's divided between 7 academic subjects, after-school sports, and String Quartet. Less than 12 hours of my week actually goes to my leasure time (storybook, message boards, website), which is becoming more of a chore in itself. My weekend consists of at least 30 hours of sleeping to catch up from my 4-5 hour weeknight sleep. Spring break has arrived and I've slept at least 10 hours of every night so far. If anyone understands the plight of our art team, it's me.

Don't think I've wanted this to happen. In fact I'm kicking myself for letting it get so bad. I could have been more active in the project, I could kept in regular contact with all the artists, surely that's something doable right?

It isn't.

The fact is that when I send out emails to the entire art staff, I hear back from less than half of them. Worse yet, my latest request for a headcount went virtually unnoticed. Frankly, we lack centralization, and it's killing us.

The Kirby Storybook Project, unlike any other remix project so far, can't function as a group of individual, isolated staff members doing their own thing and compiling it into an album. This isn't just music, it's an interactive experience that requires constant communication between the staff to make a truely amazing product.

Thus we have the problem: How can 2 people bring together 20 people and get them to become vocal and active in a project without any monetary or legally binding ties, and across great distances no less?

Fandom. Fandom is what inspired Arek to start this project, and fandom is what has brought all our current staff in. Certainly fandom can be the uniting force that gets this project back on it's feet and helps it dash to the goal.

So fellas, it's make or break time. Are we just going hide in a corner and give up, or are we going to finish this project? :P

[Arek the Absolute]

Nigga we iz finishin this cause we hard like that and that is how we roll.
We aint gonna fall out like we iz some weak ass niggas. We betta then that.

Music is almost done. I personally can't do much besides poke you and ask how art is doing.

Well anyhow...let's get this project going! We are almost done. I know we can make it to the end.

ps my bday is in 6 days

[NeoForte]

Yea I just got back a few days ago, I'm getting on my art wagon in between my final for next week. We can do this!

[Hock]

I MAKE!! I MAKE!!

I DON'T BREAK.

[Cyan_Ide]

If I survive past this Thursday..... I'll cook some stuff up this weekend.

[Rexy]

You know for sure I will be better focused on the art side for three weeks when I come home for Easter on Friday :)

[Kirbymixer]

This isn't just music, it's an interactive experience
But still you should also upload the individual MP3's. These sound a lot better than the converted versions in the flash file :wink:

[OverCoat]

These sound a lot better than the converted versions in the flash file :wink:

The final storybook will be high-quality, dummy :3

[Arek the Absolute]

Seems the art team is motivated again!
ps my bday is in 5 days

[KyleJCrb]

p.s. who are you LoL~!!

It's Rhyhon, couldn't you tell? :P

[OverCoat]

couldn't you tell? :P

NO

[KWarp]

Thanks for the responses guys. It means a lot to me.

Well, now that our biggest problem has been identified (communication), we need to take some steps to solve it.

Here's my idea: We create another thread for this project, one that's password-protected, so that the staff can discuss ideas freely and openly without worrying about the peeping eyes of the public. Hopefully DJP or Darkesword can hook us up with one. :)

What do you guys reccomend? Should I tighten up email regulations? Do I need to crack down on people who haven't shown up yet? (Should I bribe ya'll? :P)

[Arek the Absolute]

Dunno if we can make a seperate thread. If anything, we could just use your site's forums.
PIMG THAT SHIZ OUT AND MAKE IT MANDATORY THAT EVERYONE GETS AN SN

[The Mutericator]

Want centralization?

Get a website and/or your own forums. That seems to be working well on Summoning of Spirits (minus one person).

Kyle got it right, Overcoat. But even if I was a n00b (more of a n00b, anyways), a suggestion is still a suggestion. Just trying to give advice, since the writing does seem to be what's held up.

[KWarp]

Good points Arek and Pzykotikfreak, I just wanted to attempt to have it done here first so all the staff wouldn't have to deal with reregistering their names (thus improving centralization). In fact, I'll stand by this request until I hear from DJP or Darkesword directly. :)

[Murmeli Walan]

You could do what I did and find someone to contact the remixers and artists for you.

I just don't have enough time in my day to contact everybody I need to, and I'm glad that reelmojo wanted to step in and help me out.

[Arek the Absolute]

That would help, but who would want to do that?

[Arek the Absolute]

happy bday to me

[RoeTaKa]

Happy birthday man!

I haven't been around, again! Just so busy though :( . I still need to finish my song, but after next week, Im unavailable for probably a month.

[Kirbymixer]

Happy birthday. So was the announcement of this project being cancelled an april fools day joke..? I thought Arek said it really wasn't :?

[Arek the Absolute]

It was a joke. The project is still going.
Augh, that isn't good Roe. Please finish that song before you go.

[KWarp]

An assistant would be bery helpful indeed. I'd say it would speed up the release of this project by 2 full months. Who's up for it?

[The G-Man]

I have come into a slight bit of access to the internet, and it seems I came at an opportune time to wish Arek a Happy Birthday.

But I won't. I'll have this quick sketch do it for me.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v673/AmazingTrout/Derivitive%20Art/HappyBirthdayArek.jpg

[Oltri]

Omg is that style allowed for the project? Please? >_>;

[KWarp]

Omg is that style allowed for the project? Please? >_>;

It's about time to bring up art styles again.

I won't lie, we made a serious mistake early on by telling all the artists to conform to one type of art style. I've made it worse by not bringing it up sooner. Quite frankly, one type of art style throughout the whole book doesn't work. :? I've thought about it for quite a while, and, if it's still possible, I'd like the art to vary chapter by chapter. I mean, we could certainly do it, just flip through the book and you'll see a lot of WIP work, with only 10% finished art.

Should we do this, I'll have to shuffle the workload around a bit. I figure if each chapter has one distinct art style, there should only be one (preferably) or two artists working on said chapter.

I need a vote. Who's up for it?
-Hemophiliac: Not voted
-Neoforte: Not voted
-Oltri: YES
-Cyan_ide: Not voted
-Carefree Captain: Not voted
-G Man: Not voted
-olie!: Not voted
-Rexy: Not voted

[OverCoat]

Will my vote count for anything?

I think the varied art would be cool, but I feel it should still look like one big cohesive book. I've seen the idea both work well in comics and work terribly in comics, it could go either way.

Also I hope someone draws like my sig pic ^_^ that would be awesome

[The G-Man]

With all the claimed art spread out, it'll be hard to get some people to switch things around to cater to that idea. For example, I have 2 completed pictures: Fatty Whale and Wheel. If we were to go with that then one of them would have to go unused, correct?

I could care less frankly. As long as it's fun to do the style could be surrealist pointallism.

[Arek the Absolute]

So either make it look like Trigun or FLCL...
Ya I am going to go with trigun.
NO to the change.
Plus, every chapter has at least one pic anyhow. It would be ackward to change it up now.

[KWarp]

You guys are the most vocal, so I figure your opinions will follow through. I'll leave the voting open for further opinions, but I need to be decisive, so I'm moving on. I'll evaluate each request for a different art style on a case-by-case basis.

So here's my policy Oltri: The art style we lay out is a guideline. If you can make better art in a different style, I say by all means go for it (just let me see the work in progress. :P ).

[Oltri]

The style will resemble the quick sketch The G-Man did >_> The reason I wanted other styles is because I don't have a way to make it look crayonish. Photoshop filters suck, and I don't have a program that can emulate crayon properly.

I have stuff due this week, but I could have something on Saturday, though D:

[KWarp]

k, btw, how are the wierd keyboard key pics going?

[Hock]

Weird keyboard key pics, eh? I wonder what THAT's for >_>

Speaking of that subject... the face... you can't really get a photorealistic face, so I'll just paint it in as exact and nice-looking as possible.

[Oltri]

Oh yeah >_> I forgot about those...

I'll be back in a jiffy <_<;;

Edit:

[KWarp]

Arek and I are happy. :)

[KWarp]

I need to set achievable Final Art Deadlines again. I want 2/3s of the art team to have their work finished by the end of this month (before AP week).

[KWarp]

Arek's taking his "screw you I run this thread" powers to the max. :lol:

[KWarp]

The meeting's happening now. Art team attendance is 50%. :x

http://www.comicquest.com/images/hulk.gif

[Strange]

I'm glad that all the songs have been claimed, if not finished yet... but no one seems to have posted their WIPs in quite some time. Should Arek have everyone do so?

Art team, prepare to get pwned. Unless you're done.

[Crabsmasher]

HEY! Kwarp I know that I haven't sent yout he assignment yet but yesterday I had to work! I will get it in later tonight I promise.... I just need to see if I can get hold of the few people I never did get hold of!

[KWarp]

Pushing your luck a bit eh? Ah well, it's not like there's anyone around here that actually makes deadlines. ;[

[Geoffrey Taucer]

I'm glad that all the songs have been claimed, if not finished yet... but no one seems to have posted their WIPs in quite some time.
Not a WIP, but a finished mix has been posted on OCR as a teaser. (http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01455/)

[Crabsmasher]

Good news Kwarp! I sent you the email ;)

[KWarp]

I'd like to welcome Crabsmasher as an assistant to the Kirby Storybook Project. :)

*goes back to scribbling in Brain Age*

[CarefreeCaptain]

Sorry about my long hiatus, but I return bearing gifts.

ZOMG STOP POSTING ART IN THE THREAD!!!

Teh sweet though.:)



Expect to see Ninja before the Deadline.

[Usa]

Hello people! Long time no see... Since I had work to compose music for a $200.000 TV production, some plugin problems with the upcoming MacOS X 10.4.6 upgrade, and am undergoing a MAJOR keyboard upgrade right now, I haven't been able to do much in the recent time. Kyle's project being delayed added to this slacking period, but I think it will be over as soon as I got my new hardware setup up, running and got accustomed to it.

I want to say I am sorry for that, and this does not at all mean I don't want to finish this. I have already done a lot of tracks on this one and no one will stop me doing the rest, with notable improvement in sound quality as a compensation for the waiting time. I now got the same series keyboard I had before but two generations newer :) Expect something great in the near future!

[Cyan_Ide]

Usa!!!!

[Usa]

Usa!!!!

Joah!!!!!!!!!!!!12

[Arek the Absolute]

art deadline is tomorrow :o

[Rexy]

I'm telling you guys that I have been at work. My problem is, this week had me doing my exams so I couldn't get much finalisation done on the poses that I was requiring. Luckily enough it's bank holiday weekend, so if it's not tomorrow the sketches will be in within the next couple of days.
Also, chances are that I may need to drop Copy for the time being and just focus on getting Hammer established first off. I think I tackled too much at a time. O_o

[KWarp]

Fair enough, I'd rather get more finished work than a bunch of unfinished stuff.

Hey Arek how's that writing going? :)

[NeoForte]

Hey Kwarp I sent ya an e-mail, really sorry to all but I haven't been able to work as much as I would have liked. Oh yea search for more artists at my school, no one I know seemed interested and I think G-man didn't find anyone either. I'm starting to work on these more (this week is more relaxed than previous ones) so I'll at least get the powers done by next week, hopefully hehe.

[Arek the Absolute]

psh
who cares about those who didnt join
more fame for us, more hate for themm when they find out how famous this is going to be

[KWarp]

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been around today. Have a JAVA AP on Tuesday on top of homework and such. All artists please send your work by email or PM. I'll be able to evaluate everyone by the end of Tuesday, so if you're not quite done, here's an extra 2 days to do so. :roll:

[KWarp]

We seriously need more art staff. This project won't be finished for a while otherwise. :?

[Bongo Bill]

I suppose releasing the music early would be too much to ask?

[Arek the Absolute]

At the moment...I am considering it

[Bongo Bill]

I hope you're considering it strongly. 'Cause that would be super hot.

[The Mutericator]

^ Ditto that. Just release the musics already, man. That's what I'm waiting for.

[Less Ashamed Of Self]

I love music.

[KWarp]

This project won't be released until it's complete. How soon that is depends on how quickly ANYONE can recruit artists for the project. OCRemix is almost entirely a music community. Thus, a music release would dissolve all support for the completion of this project. I'm not letting that happen. :?

[OverCoat]

I've been saying this: The storybook is what makes this project unique. Releasing the music now just turns it into "any old remix collection" like Metroid/DKC/Doom etc, not that those are bad, but this could be special :)

Please don't get impatient.

[Binjovi]

Well, Arek just messaged me and said that I HAD to, so I guess I have no choice... :lol:

I'm still kinda confused with the first post though, as far as what needs to be included with each picture and how they will eventually be incorporated into the book. An example would be Fighter Kirby. Would I just draw Fighter Kirby looking cool, or should be be beating up an enemy? What about backgrounds? Should I see what other people have done so far so I can keep things similar? Can I draw him in a cool pose/perspective, or should he be fairly plain? I just feel like I don't have enough information. Or at least, not enough in one place. I'd love to help work on this, and I had no idea you still needed artists or I would have volunteered long ago. If I can get some more info, I'll start working on it immediately.

[KWarp]

Well, Arek should have been working on the writing this whole month.. but since that isn't the case, I'll contact you in private as I did with all artists. :)

[Linkjing Donuts]

"Bongo Bill": hey
"Bongo Bill": art fag
"Bongo Bill": you can draw right
"Bongo Bill": well anyway you need to use your powers for good
"Bongo Bill": go to the Milky Way Wishes thread and draw some shit.


I guess I'm in. Though I don't know much of Photoshop, so it would mostly be pencil work.

Edit: Don't know what I'm suppose to do, but I'm guessing I choose one of the "Up for grabs" stuff. I'll do Whispy Woods (Willows).

[KWarp]

TWO ARTISTS IN ONE DAY!? 8O

Holy crap it's Bean! :O

[Arek the Absolute]

Well, Arek should have been working on the writing this whole month.. but since that isn't the case, I'll contact you in private as I did with all artists. :)

Hey man, be happy I am helping YOUR art team out man.
:D

[Oltri]

Wing- Oltri Up for grabs
Fix plz >_>

[The Mutericator]

I've been saying this: The storybook is what makes this project unique. Releasing the music now just turns it into "any old remix collection" like Metroid/DKC/Doom etc, not that those are bad, but this could be special :)

Please don't get impatient.

It's not as though remix projects are stagnant, there are only, like, six out there right now. Thing is, I don't think I'll even look at the art more than once, it's the music I'll be listening to over and over again, and it's the music that gets me excited about the project.

But if you want artists, I'll talk to my friend about registering here and helping out...

Yes, but releasing the music early destroys the entire reason for this project to exist in the first place. The whole idea has always been to have a storybook that coincides with a soundtrack, which makes the project unique and sets it apart from the others. I suggest wait until the entire project can be enjoyed in it's full glory, the way it was originally intended.

[NeoForte]

I support the no music till its done done. Its a long wait but it will be worth seeing this completed ^^

[Arek the Absolute]

no music
you want music? go listen to victory fez

[Binjovi]

I take Kracko. He's, like... my FAVORITE Kirby villain of all time.

Oh, and I'll probably take a stab at parasol Kirby too.

Oh, nonono... I misspoke myself, there. I didn't mean "release the music early, whether or not the art is done yet," I'm just noting that I'll look at the storybook a couple of times and then make a CD out of the music and get a lot more use of it.

Though now that I think of it, if it's Kirby-esque enough (read: child-safe), I may actually show it to my little eight-year-old sister, she'd like it... actually, I'm suddenly getting excited about the art now, LOL.

[NintendoTheatre]

I'm so excited to hear the Battle with Meta-Knight Theme. It will be amazing!

bean is such a pimp

[KWarp]

8O

That sig is so cool!
I don't want one though, cause if I got one, it's coolness would deteriorate *sp*

Rock on Arek.

AREK ;[

[Hum4n After All]

Hey
I found somebody who would love to help out. He just needs to know what to do. Either the art will be submitted through me or he'll become a member to do it.

[Arek the Absolute]

make him do it
ps this sig was a bean original and i am hoping he doesnt do other sigs cause i love it to death and i dont want the value ofit to drop because others want a piece of it
bean is my lover fgts

[Binjovi]

ps this sig was a bean original and i am hoping he doesnt do other sigs cause i love it to death and i dont want the value ofit to drop because others want a piece of it

Only for myself (like below). I'm taking no more requests 'cause they take a long time to do and I too would like to keep them from getting too common. It was first come, first serve and Arek got it first. :wink:

[OverCoat]

Your sigs look like mine, sorta.

Though yours are original ;0

[Bongo Bill]

Also he should not be doing more sigs because this project needs to be finished as soon as possible and if he's spending his time making sigs that means he's not spending drawing for the project.

Hmm.. I have an idea... :twisted:

You'd make a good slavedriver :P

Trust me, no one understands Internet sarcasm better than Bongo Bill. I've been on the nets with him for three and a half years, and I've never met anyone more... accustomed to the oddities of the Interwebs.

[Arek the Absolute]

Hmm.. I have an idea... :twisted:
i know what you are thinkin
dont you dare copy and edit my gif

[Linkjing Donuts]

How do I unlock Milkyway Wishes? Do I have to complete that treasure thing? I don't like collecting.

[Hum4n After All]

How do I unlock Milkyway Wishes? Do I have to complete that treasure thing? I don't like collecting.

I think all ya have to do is beat the Meta Knight quest.
But Just beat everything. Yes get all the treasure in the Great Cave Offensive. Ive done it before. Its not hard. And getting all the power ups in the Milky Way Wishes. So you could get 100%

[KWarp]

Hmm.. I have an idea... :twisted:

waaaaaaaaaaaaay off :P

[watkinzez]

Save game files.

I am lazy.

[Arek the Absolute]

To unlock MWW, just beat everything. You don't have to collect every treasure in the great cave offensive.

[KWarp]

You just need to get through Metaknight and Cave Offensive

[Arek the Absolute]

You just need to get through Metaknight and Cave Offensive
Sure, but doing that doesn't expose you to the other bosses, making it a bit more annoying when fighting them.

[Hum4n After All]

I just save the cave for last.
I forgot what happens when you find/complete everything in the game (100%)
anybody rememeber?

sound test?

[Arek the Absolute]

I think so.

[Arek the Absolute]

100% gets you a whopping batch o' nothing. Beating the arena gives you soundtest.
