Made w/ Minis Comics: Lords of Timlin (It's Alive and in Print!)

[Jevenkah]

Complete in all it's glory, "Lords of Timlin" is the telling of one outstanding night of role-play gaming. We have a dark-age low-fantasy, high-intrigue setting, with a gamemaster (my husband, Teshub) who knows how to give his players just enough of what they want and leave them coming back every month for more.

The comic is intended for print, as a gift to the players who have given us so much fun over the years, but we found a whole new world for it on the internet.

I hope you enjoy!

edit- I would love to hear any comments/critiques especially as related to your viewing experience. I'm not sure if galleries are the way to go for the pages; I thought it was easier on the eyes than scrolling down. What do you think?

Even through the mental fog of early morning, that was an EPIC TALE that held my attention completely. A GREAT NARRATION in combination with the OH-SO-COOL minis & scenery made The Tale a FINE way to wake up.

Hearing of your enjoyment was a fine wake-up for me as well. Thanks so much for the compliments! It was such a long labor of love it's great to see others read it in it's completeness! And, most importantly,  have fun doing it.

Not yet. Thanks for the link. I plan to use http://ka-blam.com. The comic is magazine sized (just like Savage Sword of Conan). It will cost some $ per issue, but they're gifts so that's OK.

I loved it, too! What a masterpiece! I am utterly knackered tonight but this kept my gnat-like attention span firmly in check. Great work!

I look forward to seeing the reunited humans deal with the growing Orc threat!

I love what I see but unfortuantely it takes hours to load the pics up on my computer. So I haven't really had the chance to read the whole thing.

Thank you very much! I've been a comic book geek for only a wee bit longer than I've been a gaming geek. It's rewarding to see both of these loves of mine combine in such a vibrant way. And while I've written countless short stories in my life, I've never attempted a full-length comic. It's one of those things one never knows one can do until one tries. I'm pretty excited and can't wait to see it in print.

Thanks for enjoying the website too! That has grown like a magic bean stalk so far!

This I don't like to hear. Well, I want to hear it, but I want to fix it too. It's a hard balance to strike with resolution vs size for the comic pages, especially as the actual pages are 8.25 inches X 10.75 inches! Perhaps a separate lower-res gallery...I will let you know when I figure this out.

Thanks Gibby! I'm glad to have enabled some escapism for you! And we have some beautiful orcs to showcase in the following comics, sculpted by Nick Lund. These orc sculpts we liked so much we built an entire orc culture around their looks, elongated features, armor, weapons, gear, etc.

Thanks again all,
Jevenkah

The orcs look like they fit in nicely with Dark Age aesthetics. Are they still available to buy anywhere?

EDIT: Found them!

C'mon Gibby spill the beans - where can you get them from? I could do with grabbing a load of them to fight against my Normans, Anglo-Saxons and Vikings - All of Jevenkah's and Teshub's great threads (not to mention their wonderful blog) have really whetted my appetite to follow in their footsteps and create a massive game universe.

Sorry

I was reminded of Jevenkah's thread where she posted the Orc Bannermen, so I found that and she gave us the link there: http://www.mirliton.it/

Hope this helps!

I like your stories with this software. I think you already published the link for this software minicomics for it but can you post it again?

I'd like to do similar things than you.

Thanks Sybou! It's been very cool to hear how people have enjoyed the comic.

Little Odo- you have left me speechless, which is a total irony since you are the person who started me on this crazy blog thing to begin with! I hope you have as much fun in your "reality" as we do in ours!

Gibby- have you been to the blog website http://swordandsorceryrpg.com? The orcs you mention wanting represent one of our major orc races, the Great Northern Orcs. There are some cool pix here:



and in action one game night here:


They are soooooo much fun to paint! Lots of subtle details and "textures" to play with the paints. Love to see what you guys do with them!

Very inspirational blog. I love reading up on fluff from any fantasy setting really, so I will put the kettle on and get stuck in!

I think this is where I will put my Dark Age figures to use; building up my own little fantasy world. With obvious hints to the stuff that inspired me, I hope you will forgive

[magokiron]

Great comic!

I enjoyed each page.

Thanks for sharing your Beautifully painted minis, scenery and story.

Hope you and your group of players make more of this in the near future.

Best wishes.
