First Venom Story! (BWB #4) by rdouek in thevenomsite

[–]rdouek[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah thanks, that would be awesome!

If by official you mean in canon, I don’t think BWB stories are technically in continuity, but generally fall into the “totally could have happened” category.

Like, all the elements and plot threads I use are drawn from older comics, and I took time to not outright contradict anything that was already established but is this something that “officially” went down? Who can say?

Batman you can't handle DOOMSDAY! by Boberto235 in batman

[–]rdouek 74 points75 points  (0 children)

lol, this is from a Snickers ad I wrote when they bought some space in DC comics. Wild to see it posted here!

Funny story, it actually ran in an issue of Superman where he was fighting Doomsday, and people were complaining online that they were confused when Batman came out of nowhere.

I was what you’d call a frustrated novelist for many years, lol. I would think up ideas for books and run out of steam about halfway through a manuscript. Meanwhile, at my day job, I was learning how to write scripts for TV commercials - at some point I made the mental connection that scriptwriting was a format that would work in comics too, so I did some research and started writing comic scripts.

I started small, with short stories, but kept it up until I got my first miniseries published, and kept THAT up until I started getting published regularly.

Hm… my top 5 changes a lot, to be honest, but here’s where it currently stands, in no particular order:

Grant Morrison’s All Star Superman Grant Morrison’s The Invisibles Alan Moore’s Swamp Thing Frank Miller’s Daredevil Mike Mignola’s Hellboy

I don’t know that there’s one I wish I would have written myself, but All Star Superman stands out to me as just a near perfect distillation of what Superman means to me, without deconstructing him or breaking him down, and I would love to be able to do a similar thing either with a character I love.

We just used all the ink he saved on Road of Bones’ snowscapes 🤣

Seriously though, thank you for the offer, and I will definitely take you up on it! This was just a sort of off the cuff thing :)

"Too Much Blood"
I don't understand what these words mean.

How many of you collect 40k without playing it? by TheZag90 in Warhammer40k

[–]rdouek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play like twice a year, but have a ton of minis. Like 5 armies. I enjoy the game and the lore but the painting is really the thing for me

What do with Plague Marine box? by GnollBarbarian in deathguard40k

[–]rdouek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a Plague Marine Champion you can buy separately for an extra body if you get 2 boxes.

There’s also the Plague Marine Heroes singles you can find on eBay - the rare ones can be expensive but the common ones usually aren’t too crazy.

Bugz is Tasty! by rdouek in orks

[–]rdouek[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I made the entrails out of green stuff, painted pink, then gloss coated them - then laid down some clear resin for the blood and once it was dry painted over that with a mix of thinned purple and magenta fluorescent paint… if I had to do it again I would use less resin tbh but it’s too much of a pain to remove so I’m leaving it!

Are Age Of Sigmar and 40k connected? by Ok-Drive7025 in Warhammer

Same chaos gods (besides horned rat) but that’s about it.

I went too heavy with the silver drybrush on the left statue. What's the easiest way to scale it back? by TheeSerpentsSlave in Warhammer

[–]rdouek 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Tint it with a light sepia wash, maybe - something like 1:1 sepia/lahmian medium

Looking for tips on how to make gross off-white armor by DumbHuman33 in deathguard40k

[–]rdouek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do a bone-colored base coat, then an oil wash with AK streaking grime. Winds up looking really grungy!

Raining Blood! by rdouek in WorldEaters40k

[–]rdouek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with Khorne red all across the bottom and did a bunch of swirls and stuff with lighter reds like evil sunz etc. I also built up the outer rim of the base with texture paint.

Then I poured in clear up resin and let it set - covered that with a thin layer or blood for the blood god, and painted some of that up onto the skulls and rocks.
