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.

Quick WIP from me: I'll try to get more posted soon.

BTW, if no one else is going to pick it up, I'll draw cutter too. I'm also thinking about doing the inside nova pics (along with the helper too?). I'm not entirely sure if I want to do that yet, it depends on how I feel after doing the abilities.

Hey guys, long time no see. Sorry I haven't been around but I gots a new art for the Kirby v Virus battle. Kirby wins X3. Anyways, KWarp, will you be able to still put the text in on the window with it tilted like that?

If thats how its gonna be for the artists, I'll take Ninja and Sword for now (I don't want to take all the good ones now) . Now that I think about it... depending on the amount of artists we get, I think we should have each artist do 2-3 abilities and a boss and/or planet. I'll probably pick my last ability after some other artists have chosen theirs, and I've already illustrated the Computer Virus Boss. So far we have: KWarp: Abilities: Yoyo, Plasma, Cutter. Bosses/Planets: ---. CarefreeCaptain: Abilities: Sword, Ninja. Bosses/Planets: Computer Virus. Oltri: Abilities: Mirror, Fighter. Bosses/Planets: ---.

Random caption for this boss battle scene: Kirby: "Darn pop-ups!" This has been brought to you by... insomnia, you may now return to your normal lives.

Well, I was itchin' for something to do on this project, so I figured I'd get a head start on it... what do you think? I guess I'll be covering Halfmoon then. ^^;;; (BTW, the size I used is 150% of 300x400 so it ended up being 450x600)

How many of the artists for this project know how to make animated gifs? I was thinking that maybe, if you'd be willing to put forth a little more effort, we could maybe use 2-3 frame animated gifs for each picture. KWarp, will animated gifs work with that flash storybook engine you have going? Uhm... if anyone has seen the anime Mahoraba ~Heartful Days~ you'll see what I'm trying to get at. And if you're willing to stand the wait you could try torrenting it off animesuki. (WARNING: its a cutesie cutsie anime)

Yes (in my opinion) I agree

I think the idea of having the boss music remixed by each remixer is a great idea, as long as the remixers are up to it. Well, its not my area but... I think it'd be cool if the boss music for each world sorta thematically ties into the music for the world. Also! Artists, I found a pretty good resource for Kirby Superstar character references here: http://sprites.fireball20xl.com/NSA/HTML/Kirby/star.htm Also, KWarp, do you want the artists to draw Kirby in his normal form in the pictures or do you want us to just pick abilities that seem suited to the situation?

Well, I have two ideas... 1) Draw and color it with crayons and scan it 2) Use a brush in your CG program that gives a sort of crayon-ish look to your picture. And I'm sure people who use illustrator have even better tools ^-^.

ATTENTION ARTISTS!!! Tutorial for creating the paper cut-out effect is up: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/carefreecaptain/PaperCutOutTut.jpg Forgive, the quality, I had to do that so that it wouldn't be resized when I uploaded it.

Hello there all, I'm a friend of Arek. I've pretty much joined the OCRemix forums for the sole purpose of helping with this project, I will be a co-art coordinator for this project along with KWarp. Now, that the introduction is done with... The direction that we're currently looking to go with for the art, since this is going to end up being a sort of children's story book type thing, is sort of a crayon-ish Kirby Dreamland 3 look with little white paper cut-out backgrounds around the characters sort of like this: KWarp and I agree that this will give this project sort of a uniqueness to the art. I'll post a tutorial on how to create this effect in photoshop in a day or so. And if needs be, I can do the effect for other people.
