Sexy Bunny Day 2015

Sexy Bunny Day is an event run by United Webcomics that brings comic creators together to draw their characters as sexy bunnies.

When Epic Fail last participated it was the dwarf, Clodin, who donned pink bunny ears. If you want to see what that was like it’s this month’s vote incentive. Since this years is more on the comedic side than the risqué I decided to post it straight. This means I probably won’t get as many votes as I usually do during an event but if you like the art and find it funny please consider sharing it on the socials.

So, the narrative here is that a polymorph spell has gone wrong turning Tinuvielle into a Sexy Bunny! …Or at least a kind of Furry Elf/Bunny-cross, mutant thing. But it gets worse: she now has the sex drive of a rabbit (hence the sexy part). Plus other characters have been transformed as well!

Happy Easter from Epic Fail.

Please check out other webcomics participating in Sexy Bunny Day listed below:

Blame Someone Else Day 2015

It’s Friday the 13th known to some as Blame Someone Else Day, so me and a bunch of other artists from United Webcomics are taking this opportunity to tell you whose fault it is we all turned into artists, or, that is to say, name our influences. And do it with ART!

So this one is sorta a combo for me: I have drawn the Goblin King from Labyrinth as played by David Bowie*. I cut my teeth drawing portraits of David Bowie’s Face. Labyrinth is my favourite film of all time and vastly responsible for getting me into the fantasy genre. The art design was also done by one of my favourite artists of all time: Brian Froud. He’s known for books about faeries illustrated almost exclusively in watercolour. Oh and there’s Jim Henson, too.

* Sorry I cheated and used an old piece of Fan Art instead of drawing something brand new. Because migraine.

Faery – Legends of Avalon Game Review

Faery – Legends of Avalon is a charming RPG which reminds us that Fantasy comes in all shapes and sizes. I love faerie mythology, and have stacks of books about them (mostly by Brian Froud) therefore I was delighted to find a game where I could finally fly on delicate wings, trailing pixie dust. Originally released for Xbox live it ports seamlessly to PC.

faerie legends of avalon (2)

Faery – Legends of Avalon is suitable for children and offers the choice of following an almost entirely non-violent path which I personally thought was the more interesting one. It’s very simple and a good introduction for somebody new to RPGs who want to get a feel for them without getting overwhelmed by complexity.

10 More Amazing Origami Dragons

You’ve seen 10 Amazing Origami Dragons? Well this is 10 MORE Amazing Origami Dragons!

I am delighted to make another list of beautiful and impressive Origami Dragons and include those designs I couldn’t fit into the first one. Again this is just a list, not a ‘top ten,’ because I just don’t think it would be fair to rank them; they are all beautiful and original in their own right.

1. 3-Headed Red Dragon

‘Pure’ Origami made from a single piece of by 120cmX120cm paper by Dragon Knight 2.0 on Flickr where you can see more pictures of this dragon plus more they have made. It is incredible! Who would have thought it was possible to make a triple-headed dragon from a single piece of paper? And the heads are so detailed and expressive. This really is a masterpiece!

Montague’s Mount Game Review

An impressive effort by solo-creator Matt Clifton, funded by Indie-Go-Go, Montague’s Mount was described to me as a cross between Dear Ester and Myst. Since I like both these games and, in particular, would have liked some puzzles in the former I was excited about playing this game. I can see where the comparisons come from however if Dear Ester and Monague’s Mount were Twins, Montague’s Mount would be Danny DeVito.

Copyright Versus Fan Art

Junta Fan Arts 11- share & attribute
‘Junta Fan Arts 11’ Photo by Wmforo.com

It has been said that imitation is the highest form of flattery, but this is not necessarily true when it comes to the law. All art is to some degree derivative, but where is the line drawn between derivation and theft? Everyone will have drawn Fan Art at some point, as kids if not as adults, we want to draw out favourite characters because we love them. Perhaps we’ll even write stories with them in, because we want more stories, because we want more than what’s already out there. Because we are Fans.

But every time you make Fan Art you are breaching Copyright because you do not own the intellectual property to those characters, concepts or designs. You are not the original artist, nor have they given you permission to copy their work, so you are essentially ‘nicking’ their idea. That’s the letter of the law, but what is the spirit of it? There’s a big difference between lovingly imitating and maliciously stealing.

Star Wars: Empire Uncut Released & they included my scene!

empire-uncut-amy-letts-1

The Star Wars Uncut project is a massive fan collaboration to remake the Star Wars movies. This crowd-sourced project started in 2009 when Star Wars: A New Hope was cut up into segments, lasting only a few seconds each, and divided amongst thousands of fans to remake in anyway they chose, then stitched back together again! This amazingly creative project won a Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Creative Achievement In Interactive Media in 2010.

The Witcher Game Review

The Witcher is an action RPG based on a book of short stories by the same name. It’s a Polish game and uses Polish folklore providing a different feel and monsters you will not have encountered in other games. It’s low fantasy within a believable, feudal world stricken by war, poverty and plague. Witchers are monster slayers – mutated humans with superior strength and an affinity for magic. You play Geralt of Rivia, the famed White Wolf, mysteriously back from the dead but suffering from amnesia. The adventure starts when the Witcher’s secrets are stolen by a criminal organization called Salamandra and Geralt has to get them back.
