I was riveted from start to finish, Jules. A great read with many visual highpoints. It was well worth the wait.

The facial expressions are so great!  Do you Photoshop them onto the figures from photographs?
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

Thanks peeps for your comments of support, it's always great to read feedback.

Smeagol, yes the expressions are a mixture of Photoshop warping (lowering eyebrows etc) and pasting mouths onto the faces and blending them in. My favourite pair of lips is the wonderful Caroline Munro of Starcrash fame, I've used her lips on Maya and she's also used for Jez in Apocalypse. I've used Mark Hamil and Leonardo De Caprio for Ace.

Jules my friend, my comments on the front page speak for themselves. I count you as among the best graphics designers I have ever seen, but this chapter is utterly astounding. The storyline you have integrated with flawless and I mean flawless graphics and special effects is something I never thought I would see in any type of graphic fiction production. Your is a true talent and I am so happy to have met you and trailed along in the graphics genius that is hangarbay94. Thank for for creating this, sharing it with us, and adding such depth to the Star Wars Verse.

I am dealing with internet speed issues yet again so I have only been able to see to the Rebel Briefing, but that briefing is right up there in my eyes with the Battle of Yavin and the second Death Star Battle. I will try to leave better comments later, but these are my initial thoughts so far.

First off, as a side note...  r1bb1t!!!!  So good to see you around here again!  Stop disappearing on us, would ya???

Jules, that was epic!  No wonder you've been scarce lately (Not to mention your real job too!), the graphics were not only highly detailed and organized, but plentiful as well!  The story was gripping to be sure.  Excellent work indeed!
