Romantically Apocalyptic

[Atomkilla]

Check out Romantically Apocalyptic, a post-apoc, dark humour web comic. It's written and ilustrated by Vitaly S Alexius.

the guy looks like a Helghast from Killzone, especially Radec from KZ2

 

[Atomkilla]

Never played Killzone.
Though many people say they look like soldiers (??) from the game.

 

[Faceless Stranger]

Looks like some kind of Post-apocalyptic Nazi to me...

 

[Crni Vuk]

I think its awesome.

O Captain! My Captain!

 

[Faceless Stranger]

Good, but I do believe Gone With the Blastwave is a tad better

 

[Brother None]

The visuals are great. The writing is shit.

 

[Arr0nax]

Seconded.

It's not even remotely funny, which is a shame since, as a webcomic, if you take out the funny you're left with nothing but a bunch of nice visuals...
What a waste of an impressing good artist...

 

[KlimatNV]

Awesome.

I've never read it (starting right now!), but they look similar.
For those who like RAC, a TV (?) series is in making. Here are some (concept) vids.

it has its moments though

It appears that massive NMA visits now killed the site. I get strange errors while trying to open it.

Read GWTB. Like the humour, but it's sad it's not an active comic. RAC on the other hand is updated every week or so.

 

[Viliny]

Amazing visuals, too bad the story and jokes are shit...

 

[Korin]

Beautifully drawn.

I think its great. Its relatively lighthearted but otherwise a great effort. Dont forget to like things once in a while people.

I really wonder how one manages to make such detailed drawings. This has to literally takes ages till completed. But then again, I have no clue about drawing on PC.

Started reading with misgivings, stopped when I got to the "feel like I forgot something" joke.

I guess it's made from a mix of photographs, effects, and parts that are hand-drawn. When I say hand, I mean photoshop and a tablet.
Very few are the digital artists that don't use photos as base material anyway, mostly for textures.
With a little talent you can really create wonders in a few dozens of minutes, I remember some live videos of this, I'll guess I'll go digging for them.

You can see how he uses photo incrustation like any other tool

Would be nice for some little hands up, I am just interested how this is done.

EDIT: Thanks, watching now!

EDIT²: The video is pretty fast, I can't even see the single steps he does.
