Rad Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 What's the theme of the site? Is it action figures? Minimates? MILFS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Good luck to you guys My advice would be to concentrate on content more than style. Content gets you readers. Style isn't as important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donny B Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 I like the comics - i havent seen too many serious comics done with minimates *just about all of the ones I've seen are humorous in some way* Cool backgrounds, a decent amount of special effects, but I think the thing I like the most are the cool camera angles. Some of them are very creative And some of those customs are very well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amazing.JL Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Very nice start, I really dig those customs, especially BSG ones. Nice touch on that last pic of Six, good content. Good luck with the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Nice customs and love the comic strips, What are you using for backgrounds and the Van etc? they look like some Cardstock scenery I've been looking at and wondering if it would scale up to minimate size..

boonimusprime Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Hey I love the new site! Definitely you are on the right track. The customs are good. I look forward to your reviews too--it is always nice to have more opinions. I know you are just getting started but on putting more content, as someone else stated: there is nothing worse than a website that looks promising, then has little in the way of content or infrequently updated content. It discourages people from coming back. Good work and thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fujis Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Namor looks great! And is that Nitro? Too cool! I'd love to see you add names under your customs and maybe a small blurb about how you created them. What are you using for the background in your pics?

winkerbean Posted May 16, 2007 Author Share Posted May 16, 2007 well i'm sure they won't mind the plug http://www.worldworksgames.com/store/ and then upscaled in photoshop, i've been thinking of putting blurds about each custom but i like to keep people guessing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you dont want to divulge all your trade secrets to the great and sweaty public shoot me a PM T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
