A rather long taking project. Hours and hours wasted on this one. It is a comic in the style of http://www.joyoftech.com/joyoftech/index.html which is a remarkable net comic. I hope I don't get sued for the name? :wink: (it's in the honor of those fellas really).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway, those of you not aware of the "sudden motion sensor" need a little briefing. It's a gadget in the newest Apple Powerbooks that raises the HD reader when it detects high acceleration (a free fall). So when the laptop crashes the HD won't break caused by the pin piercing the disk.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The comic here is a 50% version (no, it's not fully vector) so if you are interested in the real thing, check it out here. http://www.elias.pietila.fidisk.fi/joyfinalfull.png (warning it's over 1 mega in size)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The comic is for my brother's blog but it is in Finnish so it's only interesting to a handfull of you. (JCP = junior content provider = my alias on the blog).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Written and drawn by me, I present "Joy of Mac" (vol. 1 :wink: )

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I decided to link it and not IMG it here. So click it! now!!

PS You need to watch the final episode of "Friends" to know what a filangi is.

Haha... don't use mac's much but as far as illustration goes, you did a wonderful job. :thumbsup:

Hahahaha thats my notebook! OS X OWNS! Get jaguar! :D

I like the drawing, good job on that. I'm not big on comics, but that's not what I'm here to comment on :).

What program did you use for that?

 

 

 

Its really good. :shock:

Very nice work! Do more of em!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Great illustration work on the guy especially.

It's fully done in PhotoShop 7. Thanks for compliments. Anything seem odd or out of place? Why does it not look like professional work? ( or does it? :wink)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

More comments please! :)

Haha, that's awesome man. Well made, but personally i wouldn't use the "Krasch!!" spelling and just use "CRASH!" or a sound effect of some sort. I reakon you need to really highlight that too, like in the old style comic books.

Kind of like the text at the top, as that way it makes the boom look like it sounds a lot louder. Other than that it's pretty perfect, i love the expression his face at the end too :) excellent job

Lol joking.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyways, nice work as usualy ColAvanor :D You should make more comic style things 8)

1) OS X Panther does own you all.

 

 

 

2) Linux scares me

 

 

 

3) I don't like the color blue

 

 

 

4) Re-read the above comment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway, very nicely done Col. IMHO it does look rather professional. If it makes you feel any better, I've only gotten one fav (*cough thanks Nad cough*) on my 239 frame emoticon on DevART... so that's one fav for each of the 6-8 hours I spent on it. Bunch of bums too lazy to watch the whole thing :P.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love the random quotes on the frame where the plane is being viewed from the outside. Ye cracked me up, man.
