18/05/09 [PF Filler]: Payback for the pirate pic

[Jairus]

Yarr, revenge is Pirate Niall's for the taking! Now my question is, who took that picture?

The Purple Y-Fronts? Well, Tape, that's certainly... an interesting bit of trivia.

Sadly, PYF was from a time long before I had any semblance of musical talent whatsoever, and about 10 years before I even thought of building a studio.
I wrote a few songs, but most of them sucked.  I do have one of them on a cassette somewhere, but it was a solo performance by the lead guy and not strictly mine.  The best performance we ever did was a jam in the school greenhouse (of all places), on vocals, harmonica and with myself on drums (literally a pair of upturned buckets).  It was not recorded and would probably embarrass me by now if it had been.

For those who are wondering or have forgotten, this week's question was asked here, by Pagan:

And, since Jay's question won't really lend itself to a filler strip, I'll just state that the picture was actually taken by Daryil.

[Sprocketsdance]

Poor Jakob.. He probably never gets any peace when Daryil is around XD.

Oh, so if we ask questions we might get a filler strip made for it? Hmmm...

Okay, what kind of hobbies does Jakob have? And for that matter, why are his briefs purple?

[Zedd]

I have to say Daryil has your good side

[Pagan]

A literal question from the reader that was answered. Woots.

[Tezkat]

And for that matter, why are his briefs purple?

Because purple is always awesome.

So... Jakob wears purple Y-fronts. Josh wears grey boxer briefs. Daryil wanders around in striped boxers. Does anyone else find it interesting that we know so much about the characters' underwear preferences?


On an unrelated matter, the bottom panel seems very blurred.

I was originally going to make them the same colour as Josh's until I suddenly remembered PYF.  I wouldn't read too much into it.

On an unrelated matter, the bottom panel seems very blurred.

That's a small amount of motion blur.  There's also a certain amount of noise added, I was trying to make it look like someone had sneaked in and taken a photo quickly before Jakob could stop them.
This was actually done a while ago, but we've been holding it in reserve in case we needed a standby strip.  I think GIMP added a film-grain filter since then, but I haven't tried it.

If you'd like to see the original I can probably arrange it.

[Gabi]

OK, now I have another question. What kind of underwear does Niall wear?

[Tapewolf]

I'll have to think about that.

Actually you've just reminded me.  Jakob is actually flipped in that picture over because Ren got confused and drew him from the wrong side...

I'll have to think about that.

..Before I think about that.

[Tapewolf]

..Before I think about that.

Well, if you do it, it's going to be white, isn't it? 

[Ren Gaulen]

Not very likely.

Soon we shall have all of the characters of Project Future in their undies. This is a good day.

EDIT:

I feel I must also point out that 'Questions From The Readers' should not be viewed as an excuse to have all my characters drawn scantily-clad...

[Pagan]

Aaah, phooey. You're no fun, Tape. Wait! Does that mean we can use it as an excuse to see them naked instead?

[Ren Gaulen]

No.

No.

Drat.. and I thought there was a reason for the lack of female characters. (few females around.. less of a need to be... modest..  )

[Ren Gaulen]

I don't know what you thought the reason was, but I'm sure you were wrong.

Most likely am, can't blame a girl to dream can ya?

[Tapewolf]

No, it's because I suck at creating female characters
That will change.  If Ren had been able to scan the comic, it would have changed by now, in fact...

[Sprocketsdance]

Yet more anticipation is added to the mix! >_< We just need to know what type of underwear this female character has and we'll be all set 

[Sunblink]

Aaah, phooey. You're no fun, Tape. Wait! Does that mean we can use it as an excuse to see them naked instead?

No.

No.

Remember Tapey, you are but the writer, Ren's the artist, he could draw some mean shonen-ai if he wanted to. 

[techmaster-glitch]

That needs to be an emote-image.

Doing the Caramelldansen?

Doing the ... what?

[Tapewolf]

Doing the ... what?

Don't go there.  It's like the leekspin song.  No matter how shit it is, once you hear it, it will be with you until the day you die.  Like some diseases, it can only be controlled, never cured.

Ren is welcome to do so if he wants.  However, he doesn't know the login for the new website
