umbreon54399 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Heya guys! So I am cross-posting this across a couple different Neopets sites, so some of you might have noticed this before. I am planning on doing a collaboration comic based off of the wonderful work of Your D&D Stories (http://yourdndstories.tumblr.com/ ) , in which he accepts public submissions from people and illustrates them in all their goofiness! I thought it was a great concept that I think we at Neopets would really enjoy, and since I have basic art skills and a need for practice, I thought I would bring it to us :D I will illustrate the stories, and submit both of our names into the NT (which the editorial confirmed this week was fine for me to do a recurring comic like this) What I'm looking for you guys: Your Neopets Username Your story! Preferably 5 sentences or less. Anything more than that, and it's going to be trickier for me to draw! This should be a true story, and something that is clearly connected to Neopets! D'oh :D I will keep a record, and create the comics that work best for me and my art skills! And lastly, patience! It could be multiple months before my first pieces are published in NT (or TNT decides "naw"), and I might not get to your story! Anyways, thank you guys for coming on board with me! Hopefully we'll see some great results soon! And in case anyone is wondering what my current art level is, here is a silly Tumblr which I almost never update: http://hannahmacm.tumblr.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomkay Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Hi! I don't really have a story, but I love the concept :) Hope someone has something fun to share so you can make it come to life! I checked out your work and I was shocked at how amazing it is. You're very talented! Best of luck with your project :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charelan Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Your work is BEAUTIFUL!!!! Honestly. I'd frame many of the pieces on your tumblr. I will think about your idea and see if I can come up with something, though I may need to see an example of someone else's story to get an idea of what's appropriate.

coley Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I love your idea. And your artwork is excellent! :) Are you looking to do comics almost exactly like what Your D&D Stories has done--just translated to Neopets? I'd like to help out if I can come up with anything good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternallypeachy Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Your work is so incredibly beautiful :wub_anim: I love your animations so much, especially the sack of flour! I seriously aspire to be as creative as you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umbreon54399 Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 Awww, thank you guys so much for your encouraging words! I'm looking forward to doing this :) To answer some of your questions, here are some potential examples which would be pretty easy for me to work with! 1: My cousins didn't have a computer at their house, so when they came to my house, their favorite game to play was Neopets. All 7 of us would load up on the computer chairs, and play every single game on the site till every score was sent. As a young entrepreneur, I was okay with this arrangement. 2: Once I went to the Money Tree and donated 145 rotten shoes… and a paint brush. Just to watch the chaos I caused. It definitely doesn't have to be complicated, nor does it have to be crazy! I'd love to just capture a portrait of Neopets life :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixi_lover_ixi Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 I know I'm a bad restocker when I can't even get the last item left from the restock.. Like "The Gorgeous Gallion" or a "Green Apple". I literally wouldn't even be able to get a pile of dung if they restocked. phantomkay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blinkk5 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Wow you are talented. I kinda see this story as a funny comic strip with Neopets as the main characters, but I'm not the artist here. :D Last year for Valentines Day I went to the Chocolate Factory and bought all the negative Valentines candies, like Angry Emoticon Hearts, Mud Lollipops, Reject Dung Lollies, Moldy Chocolate Heart, or the Broken Cinnamon Candies. There's a lot of silly items like that in the Chocolate Factory.Anyways, I opened The Bad Valentine Shoppe last year as a joke. It was filled with rotten "love" items. The whole thing was just a silly idea, BUT THE SHOP SOLD OUT. I was imagining one neopian giving a whole slew of bad valentines to their neofriends. "Here my love. I purchased only the finest Tampered Bag of Sweets to demonstrate our unending romance."XD Edit: Oh, you asked for our username. Mine is Lindyaol. (Blinkk5 has become a side account.) phantomkay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenixgal Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Just noticed this thread :D My story: About 8 years ago, I stared playing neopets. Not one week into it, Boochi zapped my main pet baby. Needless to say, throughout these few years, even with long hiatus in between, me and xenakat still enjoy battling him everyday. The feeling of shaking him down for NP and items is like sweet, sweet revenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
