since this is an intro thread, i figured i'd introduce myself here... or something, i'm terrible at introductions =p
anyways, I'm Turnsky, i sorta got the desire to come here after rereading DMFA after forgetting to bookmark it a while back (i have a bad memory for website addresses i don't use very often).
I'm something of an artist, myself, as well.
so... yeah.... hi.
=p
boo!
*Waves.* Hello! :3
wow, i didn't expect a reply so quickly... 'tis cool.
Welcome! It's not often I see avatars with heterochromia. It's interesting. c:

His tasted like banana and sweaty socks. I could have lived with the socks, but banana is unforgivable (smites ruthlessly).
oooh, Xze's going to be mad at you...
Speaking of Xze... I haven't seen her in a while...
I killed her and ate her with some fava beans and a nice ciante.
(makes icky teeth noises)
She's grounded 'till further notice. :<

Wow, you got all three of the big mods in your intro post. That's either very good, or very bad. :/

You surprise me, DMoon. I would have thought a white wine would go better with Xze... but then what do I know...?
*ahem*
HI! Welcome to this place of strangeness.
Leave your remaining sanity (if any) at the door, in the secure storage provided, and hang on to your claim ticket if you want it back. An inventory will be taken of the storage facility in the new year, and any unaccounted-for sanity will be sold on eBay. (And
why does the spellcheck not recognise "eBay"?)
*ahem* Sorry, got a bit distracted there...
What else? Oh yeah... Beware of talking boxes, squirrel-borne muffins, and anyone who tries to Tell you to disregard these warnings.
Have a welcome gift. *gives the new person a souvenir coffee mug*
Enjoy
the weirdness your stay.
*waves, and vanishes in a shower of red and green sparkles*
Welcome, and have some karma.

some extra karma is always nice..
and insanity?... well, i don't think i have any marbles left after several consecutive 4 am late nights with a computer screen, hopped up on a ton of caffeine... a pint of my blood's got more caffeine than a can of red bull... so if you see a few hyperactive vampires about... well.. you get the picture.. eheh :animesweat
*glomps, leaves a basket of muffins, then scampers off* :rj
Greetings. I am 7 Itos Atio, monitor of installation 00. Someone has released the mods. My function is to... well, I can't do much really... :(
Be safe and enjoy your stay. :)

If he's canid, the claws are for traction anyway.
Speaking of canid, that's an interesting comic there, Turnsky. Nicely-drawn, although to be perfectly frank the storyline seems rather darker than I'm comfortable with. Are you the artist or the writer?

since half way through chapter 1, i've been both artist and writer.. that banner's pretty old, one of my new year's resolutions is to fix just that. =p
Hi :)
I'm lazy so I just typed hi.
oops, don't include the above line.
or this one...

I think you might want to pay attention to LionHeart's correction... Or not. :-)
Oh, and Turnsky, watch out for anyone who warns you to watch out for anyone giving you things. They're probably someone to be wary of...
i usually count my fingers and apply bandages to any teethmarks on said fingers..
Thanks for the advice, though :)
*hisses like a cat and flares up my wings at the box tentcles flailing and leaps back into the darkness*
But the box doesn't have any tentacles...
.... oh. you mean your tentacles. Nevermind...
So, is Turnsky pronounced like "Turn" + "Sky", or like "Brewski"?
I was thinking 'Turn-ski.'

I've just read through the archives. It's a lot less grim than the first 10 pages or so make out. With that intro, and the current page being of snipers, I was afraid it was going to be three years of combat and violence, the prospect of which I found somewhat off-putting. But it ain't like that. Definitely one to watch.

agreed, went through them myself yesterday. In one go, good story, sometimes a bit text heavy but that's just me and my short attention span :B.
Greetings, infidel! I am on vacation right now, and I have lots to do (not... quite sure how that goes together...), so I am simply going to say that unless you know the bish, the lingo and the works of Frank Herbert, you must die in the pits of Hell!
...thing is only that it's really not that bad a place. So pull up a chair and keep us company! I'm Stygian, somewhat friendly creature of unspeakable horror and nightmare.

funny, you don't look lovecraftian.. and your avatar's jaw is far to square to be bishie.. >:3
yeah, my name's pronounced "turn-ski", it's an old nickname i had ages ago..
as for my comic's writing.. i'm not overly big on violence, implied violence, cartoon violence, slapstick, i like, but don't expect people (or their body parts) disappearing in a fine red mist anytime soon. Maulings and injury, fine.. but i won't be showing many (if any at all) corpses in the comic, per se.
[EDIT] *just spent this morning reading all of DMFA*

Yes. I'm ashamed to admit that my own story is actually more violent than yours, although I try to lift the mood a bit by making it funny as well.

Believe it or not, I originally read DMFA backwards through the archives since it took a while for me to get into it. Quite an interesting experience that was...

i'd say.. =p
i can't really do humor, it's beyond me, sarcasm and wit i can do, but it has to be just right, none of my comic's prescripted, y'see. i write it purely on the fly. :3
I'm even more impressed, if that's what you do.
It's a well-scripted story, though. Even despite the fact that you don't. :-)

the only "scripting" i do is when i sketch the panels, i have some kind of dialogue in mind, but that's about it..
i store it all on the ol' gray matter.
I wonder if you take requests
sometimes, but usually if i do take a request, i put their name into a big list for a cameo later on if i need one.
mmm... list... cameo lottery?
Quote from: Aridas Soulfire on December 23, 2006, 01:23:54 AM

more like a list of names to use in cameos, some may be reoccurring depending on what i need...
I think I've already cameod.

His dad served the country well...
=Door creeks open, a little 5'3 arctic fox creeps in and sneaks around, finding a good vantage point above turnsky and the rest, watching closely, before seeing a spot to strike, he quickly pounces!= HELLO! =Bounds off and offers turnsky a paw up= Sorry about that... I learned from somewhere that pouncing is a good first greeting.
Beware... we are a bit.. over zelous over precious objects to us... =Still devises his plan to take Ambers coaster... and Dmoons soul eating powers now! >:3=
wait... i'm actually worth more than a box of crackers? when did this happen? :mowdizzy
Inflation. Obviously :-)
Besides, I'm the box who's crackers, aren't I? :-)
