Loooove it!
The "pages" showing each dog in the cast section sometimes get stuck. So I have to refresh the page to se another one.
EDIT: To unstuck you only need to click the the page near the "country" where the dog is from, it will fade back.

wow lol Edge thank you so much
Torg, weird, you're the only one saying this. Are you moving the cursor while holding the picture? There's a little note that if you're stuck like that, you have to click on region again

I think I'll wait for December next year before I start reading the new comic. Waiting for next pages of Regnum comic is torture enough. But it's a good thing that this comic finally launched. We've seen previews in the past. It's good to see the end result.
I wish I could stitch in some extra 5 arms on you, then clone you 10 times, Piz.

Schedule should be wednesday -Regnum, monday - Terror Dogs

You have an unique style, plus I love non-fantasy comics. It has a sort of "present time" sci-fi appeal (the big thrilling, robotic-like dog) with elements of dark detective fiction (the guy smoking, the way he's dressed, the "disturbing justice" quote) and industrial (just look at the background!).
It's mature, it's hardcore and evil. I LOVE ITTTTT!

Hahaha, yeah, I should have checked it before posting... :tonguey:
Unfortunately, most of what you say there is true. It's happening, they're watching us and we mean nothing to them. They don't care about our personal lives, just what we do. We're prosecuted if we step out of the line just a bit or even if we look suspicious, even when we have done nothing.
They can't read our minds. Though, we're not safe hiding our thoughts; for they can shape our lives and ideas at their will.
I speak a lot about freedom and when it is really worth sacrificing some of it just to feel safe.
PS: Naming "meatbags" to the humans section was very creative :P

@El_Naso - yes I know, the math script in flash goes crazy, but I can't do much about it - I will change the banner in the future
Kailer, thank you so much for checking it out! :D

I would have given u some good carma for this fantastic new comic but i must and i quote: "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to aardvak2669 again." :P, so i will just give u my :thumb: and keep it comeing cos we love it xD

I must say: really nice, Piz! I love it already. This comic was so amazing! When I realized it was just three pages (yes, I've gone through every other part of your website too) I immediately got impatient, knowing that I couldn't spend the following hours reading a really nice comic - since there wasn't enough material yet!
I will closely watch your website, constantly waiting for the next page to come out. The mood in this comic is just great! Colours, environment, storyline (well, rather the concept, since we have not seen a lot of story yet) and everything just feels so.. dystopic and brilliant!
It's perhaps the not-quite-sci-fi feeling about it that is so exciting. It's the future, it's the present. What we see today is how the methods of surveillance is refined for every day that passes. Heck, it's my classmates that help develop new technology for "automated detection of abnormal behaviour", as are (remote) friends to my family. This is reality, yet, at the same time, so far away (both in future and in mind).
What is there to say: keep up the good work! Can one buy your work in print? Or get high-res. versions for printing myself?

Maybe its too early to ask such things, but are the other characters based off people IRL?
I mean its obvious who Crud is XD
And Faquir reminds me of Mira's character in ROL

Woooooow ! :O
There it is at last ! \o/
First of all, excellent web design.
This dark, gloomy urban background sets perfectly the ambiance, you know in the second where you are : a place constructed for you, where you have to live even if it don't suits you. Just perfect :thumb:.
The banner... well, we'll see what will become of it. What's really disturbing me is the ROL comic link : it seems to me out of place (ho hey, just my opinion, based on my tastes, so totally subjective. But I had to say that to be totally honest).
Now, the drawings.
My firsts impressions were like : "Ohhhh, that's Piz's work, no doubt. Perspective, colors, light and shadow play... but more mature, more sophisticated maybe... damn good, whatever ^^".
Then, I felt that something was bothering me. I don't know what exactly, and the more I search, the less I found. I've tried to see it in a subjective point of view ("I know what are my tastes and my attempts, lets see what matches in those drawings."), then the more objective I could ("Okey. Forget all about Crud, it's the first time you see his work. What do you feel ?..."). Results : I know there's something, but I can't put the finger on it :/.
The background details ? The architecture lines that I've finally found irregular ? My cold coffee and my inability to find ?...
Finally, I've seen two things (out of that $"#ù! feeling) : a kind of disproportion for the lain guy (2nd page, 3rd layer) and the line of light around the Lokton (3rd page). But it's more the frustration that have made me see that >.<'.
On the other hand, your lightings are extremely good, the perspective twist in the 1st page/3rd layer is superb, the general ambiance is incredibly gloomy... all good ! :D
Let's see how you'll place the world's background (history, society) and where will go the main storyline.
Meanwhile, the jury congratulates you for your efforts and invite you to proceed in that glorious way ! :clapping5365:

12-07-2008, 03:25 PM
oh suggestion btw,
You should add a link that goes back to the main iwconstructions.com page from the /regnum page and the other
Pizdzius
12-07-2008, 03:49 PM
okay, thanks for all the suggestions, instead of Regnum banner I will add a button that directs you to my main site, thanks for that
El_naso - if you are able to make a nice smokey banner in flash and you are willing to do it for free, then I'd be VERY glad ;]
Laeloth - wow, so much, I appreciate the effort you put into expressing everything ;] first of all, thanks for sharing it, it's all very important - BUT, yes. I don't want to have a realistic style. I don't want everything to be perfect and I hate perfectly straight lines so it looks like a photo because it's traditional art - the whole fun it's not perfect. Otherwise I'd just do photomanipulation comic wouldn't I ;)
I just try to defend my style - I know I can't draw like a pro, I still do mistakes in anatomy and stuff like that, but some of things you consider wrong are intended by me - it's just the way I like things to look like. I bet my style will evolve in this comic too, so we will see where I will go with this ;]
I know what may be disturbing to you, I've been told about it many times - but that's something I can't get rid of and it seems it's part of my style - the flatness. Since I am very VERY shallow person (don't argue, I know I am), very very reasonable and I don't have emotional intelligence - it reflects in my art, there's no dynamism or expression and I know it - I've been in art school for 6 years and everyone tried to bring it out from me - but it's not there. ;]
Phew. So in short - I know it's not perfect, but if it'd be - I would be older and would be famous xD

oh and about that - sometimes when I notice that I've drawn something wrong - it's usually too late, it's ink and I can't erase it, so sometimes I just go "meh, it's only a comic" ;]

Thats one of the most annoying things for an artist, at least in my experience, I think all artists have a tendency to try to draw something right away, sometimes I miss a ton of layers and lines when they are needed, and sometimes I put them where they aren't needed.
Its frustrating work yeah :P ?
I wish I could draw like you aswell, and looking at your work I just get discredited at my own... XD But, ive learned to keep in mind that I am younger than you, its something alot of people forget too when trying to draw.
I hope to draw aswell as you someday Piz
Pizdzius
12-07-2008, 06:16 PM
you will draw better than me someday, Edge ^^
El_Naso
12-07-2008, 06:38 PM
Could you get me the drawing you used for the banner? It would save me some time.
In the meantine, add this to the first line of code of the .fla whenever you got time:
onEnterFrame = function() {
_quality = "low"
}

That's what I wanted to hear ! \o/
Please, be absolutely sure that I've never had the intention to tell you : "Hey, you'd better draw like this or like that". As long as you make what you want, the way you want, for the reasons you want, that's what's for me the closest definition of "perfection".
"You are imperfect, I am imperfect, and that is perfect", told me my old master ;).
I know what may be disturbing to you, I've been told about it many times - but that's something I can't get rid of and it seems it's part of my style - the flatness. Since I am very VERY shallow person (don't argue, I know I am), very very reasonable and I don't have emotional intelligence - it reflects in my art, there's no dynamism or expression and I know it - I've been in art school for 6 years and everyone tried to bring it out from me - but it's not there. ;]
Erf, shallow ? Oo
You've asked not to argue, but...
One of the several pieces of your work (http://crudity.deviantart.com/art/Crudity-s-new-website-96037031), to many of them to be all put in there.
But we can make an exception for those ones (http://regnumcba.blox.pl/html/1310721,262146,169.html?2), another mere sample of dozen of pages of sweat, pain and heart.
Don't tell me that (http://es.youtube.com/watch?v=4MKvF_Xk21c) doesn't have any research behind.
Without even speaking of this one (http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/7181/m001dn6.jpg).
Or your incredible drawing of that skeleton dragon, whose image reflects itself in a lake - personification of the Might forced to recognize his own humbleness in front of what we'll all have to face a day or another. (can't find the link, doh ! /o\)
And so many more work we don't even have any idea.
So... shallow ??? oO
C'mon, seriously.
So in short - I know it's not perfect, but if it'd be - I would be older and would be famous xD
Only a matter of time ^^.
Keep doing what you feel you have to do, Piz, and never forget that you've already done great works ! Future is so full of wonderful possibilities, may you find the strength to turn a "it can be done" in a "it's finally made" ! \o/

12-07-2008, 09:38 PM
copying from photos is a good way to learn anatomy Edge and it's not fail, actually to reproduce a photo is very tough, people usually get lost and this is a good piece, so stop lying you fail ;P
Laeloth, oh the sugar xD
you should meet me IRL. I am dull, shallow and closed in my little imaginary world which makes me a good material for a nerd ;P
El_naso - should I send you whole .fla?
El_Naso
12-07-2008, 11:14 PM
well... I guess, but if it is too heavy you might as well just give me the drawing (wasn't planning to make a flash anyway :P)
I really don't know if I can make it look good enough, but I can't help it, I wanna try :]
Pizdzius
12-07-2008, 11:18 PM
heh, I could make a gif, too ;P
El_Naso
12-07-2008, 11:39 PM
I wanted to feel useful :C
Maybe a flash but using bitmaps with multiply / lighten layers, a few smokey textures and some nice textured text... I'll get started with that XD
Also, my ink will be surely different from yours and though the end result may be very simmilar, I must ask, is yours the best ink aviable or is it just good and affordable like mine? Curiosity kills me :P
Pizdzius
12-08-2008, 12:17 AM
huh? xD That flash banner except for the dog drawing is pure computer generated and it's animated, so I don't think a smoke texture will do. Thanks though, I appreciate your help, I think I will stick to that lame flicking banner until I make up something new
what ink you have on mind?
El_Naso
12-08-2008, 12:27 AM
None in particular. Different inks result in (slightly) different textures. I was simply curious :P
Pizdzius
12-08-2008, 07:10 AM
um, you mean the ink I use for drawing stuff?
this is very subjective choice

Wow, that really good, wana see how the dogs came to be etc...
Also, there is a typo, the banner at the top says Terror Dog not Dogs.
Amazing work
Ulmanyar
12-10-2008, 09:05 PM
Also, there is a typo, the banner at the top says Terror Dog not Dogs.
For me it's just "TERROR DO", unless I try to mark the text, because then I can scroll back and forth between it and "RROR DOGS" (no, I don't get "ERROR DOG" in between).
Also, my CPU starts running at full speed and the temp goes up drastically, so I think something else is bugged with the flash banner too..?
Pizdzius
12-10-2008, 09:10 PM
Everything will be explained as the story goes.
There's no typo, but I noticed people have problems with it, I don't know why. I will take down the banner anyway

You're using gnu/linux with the official adobe firefox plugin, aren't you? They're the ones to blame.

Got me! :dumbofme: Perhaps it's time to check out the current status of Gnash again, and now it's been some time since the specifications of flash was released by Adobe (in May, was it?), so hopefully it's working in a satisfying way now.

(Quickly, to avoid making a whole page at every post :p)
1st layer of the new page, Melchior's face : ex-tra-or-di-na-ry OO. Very clean, harmonious, from the ashtray he holds to his embittered expression...
Way to go ! \o/
"the show starts in a moment"
Nothin' to say on that...

Pretty good all in all, even if the two last layers show more static faces. Keep it up ! :thumb:

I haven't logged on in a month, but I just did to say this was pretty awesome.
Thanks for giving me a reason to stick around the forums, though I could... "manage" to see more of the main comic here, you know, the one that's sticky'd. I probably would've forgotten about RO by now if it wasn't for the great community and the awesome comic.
also, I tried to log on but RO made my internet die. That was not fun.

Hey do you need some help with the click and hold buttons in flash? I pulled off an easy toggle button with a mouse over state while working in a flash version of kiirani's map of the warzone some months ago. Null values really saved the day :rolleyes2:
It was such a simple thing... anyway, if you want it, just ask. Might save you time.
Pizdzius
12-15-2008, 09:26 PM
I don't need flash buttons. Only flash content is Cast section, I will work on it soon.

Landing of page 7 successful !
Brilliant attempt for the depth of field changing on layer 2, it could have been better perceived if used on the 1st layer too, imho. But it must have been already a hell of a difficulty to succeed what have been done, congrats for the idea and the result ! ;)
Melkior and Sonia's drawing details are awesomely clean and precise, a real pleasure for the sight. Martin, on the other hand, is somewhat left behind... but as long as I couldn't make tenth as good as you do, I won't ask anything >.<'
