I would like to polish my cartoon-drawing skills and I think a Paizo-Pathfinder/messageboards unofficial comic strip would be a great way to do it! (If the paizo overlords are OK with it, of course).
My idea is to invite you all to write small comic strips (3-4 frames) based on paizo messageboards community and/or Pathfinder stuff (again, only if the Paizo staff is OK with this) and send those to me so I can draw it up and post it in this thread.
Why send the strip to my email and not put it in the thread? for the finished strip not to be read twice...it loses all the fun. Spoiler tags just make it more tempting to look in ;). I'll try to do one or two every 15 days.
If anyone wants to send me his/her ideas, I'll be glad to draw it up! If no one sends anything then I may torture you with my lame humor! ;) And if by any chance several are submited, I'll have to pick the funniest (or easiest to draw ;) ) go go for it. If someone wants to jump in and draw the strips you are more than welcome.
Send your strip ideas here!
Ha!, this is a fine example:
Frame 1 A human and a hairy dwarf:
Human: Excuse me sir can you help me? I seem to be lost.
Frame 2:
Dwarf: :smacks the human:
Frame 3:
Dwarf to hurt human: Didn't your mother teah ye how to talk to a lady?
I hope dragonbron3 don't mind me putting this here ;)

But they have nothing on halflings!Belkar is the ONLY good halflingUhhh, actually I'm pretty sure that Belkar is Chaotic EVIL. ;)
I digress however. Resume the cartoon discussion.
Chaotic Evil is the new Good.

Here's the link to an email to Hugo, to make it easier for everyone.
hugo_be@hotmail.com
I've received a few emails with strip ideas already, I hope I can make a couple on the weekend. I'll draw one of my own first, I hope you don't mind guys.
Also I'll post some hints on how to "submit" the strip ideas. I'm not a professional on this strip-drawing "business" but I think I can give a few leads; at least to make the drawings easier.
Thanks for jumping in into this project!
Yay! I finished the first strip sketching-inking now I proceed with the coloring and text assembly. I hope it'd be ready tomorrow night.

Just found the thread. The funny thing is, I've had several comic ideas floating around in my head that were Paizo related. I'll flip through it and see what suggestions people have, and I'll riff with Ben on some other stuff. He's a comic genius. My comedy reads like paragraphs of dry text sprinkled with in-jokes, which is what it is.
Perhaps a parody of the "Bath House" episode of EVERY romantic comedy anime ever. I could see Valeros and Lem being peeping Toms. :P

A number of ideas spring to mind but Seoni constantly complaining about how men don't take her seriously and only see her as a sex object seems to leap to the fore immediately.
a friend always makes jokes about Merisiel... whenever someone tries to have some kind of relation ship with her, she just pring crying "but you are going to die! and i will be alone again!!!"
yes he does this to make me angry about her harsh life

well she is the dominant, political and maneuvering... why not also feminist :P
she is beutiful and not afraid of showing it either

That was very good!
I was hoping for a
Keep up with this fun idea. I'll try to think of some gags.
Oh, and I love KC's expression in the last panel.
Kudos. That's heap funny. :D
Nice work Hugo!
I like it. And well done Set (and KC?) for helping with the idea.
Nah, I had nothing to do with this. That's why I was so surprised that I didn't get humiliated in some way.
Awesome comic, Hugo.

Awesome, Hugo!
Just a random thought on the punchline:
How would the comic flow if the last two panels were swapped round? You might need to replace the Goblin with the Kobold and remove the "!!" in the (now) last panel, though...
Cheers! :D
jajaja no don't move them
i love the fact that the goblin needs to be asked to realice he did win... all the poor goblins were actually serious about "arrow catching"swap them and it will look like he just took advantage... that will kill half the fun
and i love the strip :D
I left a comment on your Deviantart page. Spot on!
Thanks people for the response!!!! I have already a few more great strip ideas from some of the Posters!!!!
I'll make sure I make one more this week!
This is th first comic strip I'va ever done, so I don't have any knowledge on proper frame working or text placing, etc. I'll try to find a book on comic-strip basics so I can do a better work. If somebody knows of any books or hints on comic-strip making I'd appreciate the help.
Cheers!

Y'know, I might take this one. I like the idea of a kobold and a pig as hard-boiled film noir detectives. Or were you thinking more along the lines of superhero duo?

Keep up the good work, Hugo. Are you still looking for a title for the strip?
What, like The Golarigoons?
