Had an idea about a webcomic, and here's the character design I came up with.

Really just done it to keep myself from falling asleep tongue.gif

Also, Our very own Jules Rivera was nice enough to hook me up with a cool company logo.

She's awesome! I'm justmessing with different color schemes just now to see what I like best.

It does look great, Liam, and I'd love to see this developed, bro. I would caution you to research the name and make sure it's not still copyrighted. Alternatively, you could call it Rocks 'n' Socks. heh

Cool logo too!

That is a cool logo!

Hate to throw cold water at a great concept, but my thoughts went down the legal road right away, too. Conditioned to be sensitive to using trademarks and copyrights, I guess. But yeah, you probably should check their trademark & copyright status. If you're going to do anything with them.

Rocko & Socko?

Or go the Reservoir Dogs route and call 'em Mr. Blue and Mr. Red? Maybe Mr. R and Mr. S?

Cool all the same!

The name would be trademarked if anything. I would guess it probably is, since you can still see them all over the place, but some research would tell the tale.

Totally digging the bots man! Nice work! They have hilarious expressions on their faces!

And the logo rocks too! Nicely done!

Cheers Brant!

I doubt I'd be calling the webcomic Rock 'em Sock 'em, lol. It's almost definitely one hundred percent copyrighted. That was just a thread name I wanted to use lol.

Not sure what I'd call the webcomic yet. Although it is revolved around a set of rock em sock em type toys tongue.gif

Same again. Wouldn't be naming it after the actual toys. Not decided on a name yet. I was actually just going to give the bots pretty generic names like "Bill" and "Robert", or something like that.

Yeah I'm not actually using the name as the name of the webcomic lol. Just the name of the thread...


lol, just a quick design I came up with while I was trying to stay awake. William Blankership is in the middle of designing some bots for me.

Lol yeah i especially dig the red guy's expression

Yeah I really love what Jules done with the logo. Just messing around with colors now tongue.gif

I had a similar idea for a comic strip with using robots but decided sack the idea because I couldn't commit my full attention to it.
So I wish you the best of luck with it mate. I like the colours you gave them, red versus blue is an age old concept that can never get old.
I really love the company logo Jules came up with.


I can not wait to see more, keep the updates coming Liam. I want to see more.

I doubt anything will come of this for a while. At least until I get my tablet and knock a good buffer of strips out the way.

Yeah I love the red and blue together, I think, although it's so common, it still catches your attention really well tongue.gif

It caught my eye. Red is strong, bold, and blue is cool so they go well with each other. Good luck and I am looking forward to
seeing more.
