Drifting Manga needs YOU!

[Ethix101]

hmm...emphasis on the dirt....like this?

 

[Ethix101]

if so..I don't think a slammed Sil-1580 like I wanted before would work really well on back roads, dirt or otherwise. (I live in an area that has alot of roads like this and I would never wanted to race a lowered car on them) I think I'll take one of these..if that's possible.

 

[spaceratk]

i could be dori's younger brother.
black guy with hugh ego, i'll mannered, who tries to compete with his brother, but his brother being the only1 he stands by (even though he races and his brother doesn't, he can't beat him in a race)

car- RX7 savannah

 

[dori]

YEAH,that would be off da' hinges LOL.This is gonna be a sweet
manga.Maybe a all black man team (LMAO).The dark riders .
I wonder where we can find the manga when a issue is complete?
We could be the rival team.!

 

[MeM]

Yea im in for the dark riderz. but I think that our cars would have to be all black!

I got a team of bad guys, five kids between 16-18 year olds who grew up on transformers, They go to school with the main character and detest him. Their name, "The Drifticons", they all drive Silvias and have scissor doors, the leaders name would be "Traction" (S15 age: 18) and well the others could be "Feint Motion" (180SX age:18), "Grip" (S14 age:17), "Torque" (S14 age: 17), and "Power Slide"( S13 age:16).
their trademark is that all the cars are black with black Nismo Volk TE37's and they dont care what happens to their cars in a race in an attempt to win, and they'll even go as far as to try and wreck other drivers.

Can I be Power Slide?

 

[Naoki]

Seriously, I'd love to be Power Slide, but if you need any help with anything, I'd love be of assistance.

 

[Ethix101]

You forgot Opposite Lock..shortened OppLock hehe

 

[FusionS2000]

sure you can be Power Slide, I'llbe traction, does anyone else want to be in the Drifticons?

 

[Maky]

i be in the drifticons

 

[FusionS2000]

Macky, who do you want to be?
so far there are 3 characters Feint Motion, Grip, and Torque.
Hopefully the Drifticons will make it into the comic.

 

[kirkis9]

drifticons spin up: transformers? drifting? team? put into the mix and we have a team of transforming silvias! my god that would be outrageous, the mecha alternatives would be block type and stereotyped to that of most 80s robots. they would have elaborated intro sequences when they introduce themselves and often get hurt when transforming because theres still people inside.
the nismo parts could factor into this, (because maybe they have special powers?!) the nismo inisigna would light up when being used.
im not afraid to do something unique like this , yall for it?

leethe slacker: you got car models in rendered in 3d? this would be a huge contribution to the series (and maybe some future projects?)

darkdrifterz: hmm,
for dori i had in mind very talkative character with all kinds of lame jokes that only he thinks are funny. people like to be around him, its a colorful atmosphere and plus hes very persuesive when it comes to girls. He has his cars stunning in apearrence, that turns everyones heads, "uniformity"
his little brother would have to be frustrated with the infererior skill.( a dihlandau type character?) he would make some descent conflict! this could be a dynamic group of guys that will not apply just to one section of the story, but many sections.

this has been a blast to make so far, expect the first volume to come out in late october. still got a long way to go, appreciate yalls dedication and great ideas.

 

[MeM]

Nice Drawings. I wish i could make those. But i have no tallent any tips?

 

[kirkis9]

takes AN ETERNITY OF PRACTICE, i loved drawing and just never stopped. a key point when it comes to anime and cars is "symetry" alignment, even the characters the set up of the eyes in relation to the nose, mouth and the chin points are all part of a predefiened geometrical pattern pertaining to what kind of person it is.
drawing cars? its like eating sand, but more rewarding!

back to work im kind of in kuwait right now and its REALLY HOT, all the websurfing and drawing is done at nighttime

mem: you got any interesting character details? i try to keep all characters based off other people. (makes it more diversified )

 

[mwoodski]

ill be a 16-17 yr old male, who drives a black chaser(gt3 model, but not a tom's), dropped, body kit, 17" rims and EXSTENSIVE engine mods, who has a need for speed and fients alot, he can win some races, but not many, until he jacks up the boost on his car, and he has many engins at his home

 

[mwoodski]

Remember, if you need any help with something, just ask and I'll see what I can do.

 

[FusionS2000]

See I cant draw anime characters to save my life so maky maybe you could work them up and save kirkis a little work.

 

[Maky]

i be torque. i draw some thing up and see what you guys think of it

 

[MeM]

Well, I could write a book on me (ok mabey not but..)


Well Im only talkative around people I know. If im with a group of people and a couple people i dont klnow join in. Ill be quiet. Not talk at all unless someone asks me a question then ill mumble or shake my head Im shy. Im very connected with my car. Even if it gets a scratch ill bring it to the shop. And i would hate to crash it. Putting so much work into it.

im gonna go write some stuff down and come and type it up so my comptuer dosent freeze.ill try to get osme pics of inside the skyline.

As an all black group. I think we will taunt alot. and diss alot. Since its what some of us usually do to phyke out opponent out. Especially during my basketball games. mabey some corny disses like. "Damn your car is uglier than your momma" things liek that.

I when i drive. Blast music. Keeps the blood flowing (even though MA wont let us drive untill were 16 and 1\2) Mabey we talk ebonics.. Ill get more stuff downa nd edit this post.

 

[spaceratk]

well i like modelling 3d cars, (right now i'm working on a ae86... a bit off but thats because the blueprints that i'm using are a little off especially in the grill)

 

[spaceratk]

seeing that its a manga i did it in cell shaded.

 

[mwoodski]

what program did u use to do that!

 

[spaceratk]

Anim8or (anim8or.com) its a free 3d program thats easier than 3ds max but not dumbed down like other free 3d programs. (the cell shading is a technique you can learn easily)

 

[KT_Mazda_Fd3s]

yeh...and i'll like to be a chinese good lookin chracter who drives a white mazda Rx7 (FC) who has had a bad past, and the main girl falls in love with him but tragically he dies in a race with the main character and he was in front...(he tryed to do an inertia drift and went straight off). the main girl of the thing is in tears and he has a proper funeral where loads of street racers go and respect him (cos he was better than the main character but clumsy)

 

[mwoodski]

i like that KT
