@Brendan: Yeah, I'm not the kind of person to just type silly stuff that holds no purpose. I will not make silly posts to win those blog Quests. If I was. I wouldn't of waited a month to finally make my first blog.
My name is Kristoffer Remmell (FoxxFireArt). I am a free lance graphic artist, writer, and self described mystery geek. I'm a native Kentucky residence. I've been a regular user on Comic Vine and Anime Vice for nearly a year now on both sites. I have been a member of Giant Bomb for about a month now. I thought I would take this opportunity to write a blog to introduce myself.
As a member of Comic Vine I've had the pleasure of communications with the site staff through the site. Nothing on a very personal level, but friendly. I have a lot of respect for the work and the writing done there. In my time there they have been kind enough to give attention to my special 4koma(four paneled comics) comics based on comic events, such as my Return of Bruce Wayne 4koma. I was even invited to write a guest article for the site. I eventually wrote a second, and it was accepted for front page attention as well. At Anime Vice. I am a major contributor of the wiki profiles to the point where I have reached the level of being one of the top three contributors. I've written numerous guest articles and reviews for the site, and was made one of the moderators. Even there some of my Code Geass 4komas have been shown on the site's front page, such as my most recent Code Geass Episode 23 4koma.
I actually do plan to make some 4komas based on some video games, particularly Resident Evil 5. That game gave me a lot of inspiration. When I get the free time from commissions to finally work on them. I plan to post then on my devArt account and my blog section here. Though, I'm not under any delusions that they would get the same level of attention here on Giant Bomb.
In the meantime, I am posting a sample of some of my art based on the game Jak X: Combat Racing. Despite not being my favorite game in the series. I found it oddly addictive. I drew this back in 2005 and tried my best to mimic the style from the series. I thought Jak looked pretty kick ass in that game. Daxter for some reason feels a tad off to me. I could never get his eyes to look quite right in my designs. So, I just put his goggles over his eyes. The background is a screen shot from the game.
I remember that it was still rather impressive how well the motion controls worked in Twilight Princess considering they were pretty much just tacked on last minute. It should be very interesting to see what they pull out with a game that not only was designed with motion controls, but the abilities of Motion Plus.
Now, I will actually have to get Wii Motion Plus. I've been holding off before.
Can you believe that I got the original Beyond Good and Evil for $25.00 brand new? It was awesome and I love the game. I still have it. It had some rough edges and it could of used more areas to explore. Still a lot of fun.
