Oky Posted February 6, 2013 Hm... this will be tough without any photoshopping. Can we at least edit in speech bubbles and such? Also, can the 5 pictures be composed of multiple pictures/panels like a comic book page? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MstrOfPppts Posted February 6, 2013 5 pictures is a strange limit for a comic type competition ... hope it's a copy paste error as well as Photoshop editing :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hinckley Posted February 7, 2013 No photoshopping? Sorry... Plenty of photoshopping is allowed. Encouraged, in fact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oky Posted February 7, 2013 No photoshopping? Sorry... Plenty of photoshopping is allowed. Encouraged, in fact. Ah, that makes a lot more sense, thanks. One more question: Does our story have to be in the same innocent tone as Fabuland or can it also be about something like, say, murder? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cecilie Posted February 7, 2013 Entries are to be placed in their own entry topic in the Brick Flicks & Comics Academy forum. The title of the topic should begin with "FABULAND Story: " and then give the name of the entry. In the academy? Not in the main Brick Flicks & Comics forum?

The Penguin Posted February 22, 2013 One question. This is my entry for the Fabutar contest. Can I use this figure in the story, despite it having plenty of "cutting, sculpting or modifying"? No other bricks will be violated! Good day, ladies and gentlemen! ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hinckley Posted February 23, 2013 One question. This is my entry for the Fabutar contest. Can I use this figure in the story, despite it having plenty of "cutting, sculpting or modifying"? No other bricks will be violated! Good day, ladies and gentlemen! ) Um...good question. I suppose, I would tell the story in the panels more. Combine the paragraphs and the pictures to make it more of a comic. The Penguin himself is pretty butchered, but that's your own custom, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Penguin Posted February 23, 2013 but that's your own custom, right? But of course! I'm almost insulted! Seriously speaking, thanks a lot for the answer! I'll be making a story about him then. Good day, ladies and gentlemen! ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
