Hunters Moon hits DA!!!

Thu Nov 26, 2009, 9:30 AM
Hi guys,

Long time no type I know but as you can decipher from my gallery I've been busy busy lately.

I finally finished my comic - Hunters Moon. If you haven't already done so I would recommend you take a look in my gallery because a)its what this journal is about and b)it took freaking ages to upload them!!!

This all came about when a friend of mine decided he was going to put together a cheap magazine/anthology thing and asked me for a story of whatever I wanted.

Now, I've always been a fan of Games Workshop's Warhammer 40k range, especially the Space Marines. Starting from there, and having read about the recruitment process into the Astartes, I wanted to do a "deathworld grunt becomes Space Marine hero" kind of thing.

I liked the images in my head of the leafy jungle juxtaposed with the straight lines and metal of the Marines. So with that as my starting point I picked up a pen...

I wrote about 10 pages of A4 to outline a story and the key moments (I may type it up and post on here if anyone wants to see it)...

Anyway... that's it. Please be gentle, this is my first 12 page comic and I know that there is some clunky stuff in there. But also, you don't learn if you dont get any feedback from peers so comments are definitely welcome!!!

Cheers and peace
