Thanks, that's really useful. I hadn't realised how much the shape tools could do because I've usually had Illustrator too.

i just voted on the halloween challenge, really good stuff guys! i'm gutted i didn't get anything finished.

edit: also just popped onto the blog to see whats going on and saw the speech bubble tips. that could turn out to be quite handy!

Thanks for the reference for Nori, Anders.

I usually use the eliptical tool for the balloon, and then use the paths tool to make the tail.
Nice samples Starfox. I might try to use a few of those when I'm laying it all out.

Are you still going with the cool xmas shopping theme Solomon? If so I've altered the first pages I'd come up with so they fit as a bit of a prologue and I'll post them once the fight threads up.

Just thought I'd share this, it's the final tweaked version of my Halloween final, with the speech bubble that I completely forgot to put in, even though it was the punchline! A few colour tweaks too.

Ha ha,  nice work Starfox.

Nori Vs Demonessa should be an interesting battle, looking forward to seeing how this one pans out.  who have we got lined up to fight the winner next week?

'Grats Fox.

I read the bit about the Christmas challenge starting soon and almost fainted. It feels like no time at all since the last one.

here's a question..it's possibly a stupid one but bear with me. this 3 fight rule, does this apply to our actual fightclub characters or to us?

---

I don't think there's actually any fixed rule that limits how many times you can fight with a character, its just been that 3 after straight wins the player let's two new people have a go. By the third consecutive fight most people are worn out anyway. Nori's on her fourth fight at the moment and I think I've fought in about 9 ordinary rounds now in total plus other challenges with various characters. Which brings me to the next question; what is the xmas challenge going to be this year?
