I can answer this one. It is an awesome thing to do. Just don't Keith Moon it up.

Jeph, have you ever considered experimenting with Flash or After Effects? A Deathmole music video could be a fun side-project.

I know just enough about animation and video production to know that I hate it

Ah, that's too bad. Flash animation is a hobby of mine.

With your strong female-heavy cast of characters I'm sure Mr. Miyazaki would be enamored with this source material and willing to spin it into a film. Try to work in more gods/spirits and flying machines.

I would watch it.

Hell yeah. I would watch it too. I'd be completely baffled as to how such a thing came into existence the whole time, but still, Hell yeah.

Do you like any industrial? You've mentioned techno a couple of times, don't remember if that came up, though. Anything there you'd recommend? My favorite is Psyclon Nine, you heard of 'em or enjoy it?

Quote
I liek mudkips okay I guess

So then, out of curiosity, how much of a /b/-tard are you? It would explain where Pintsize's twitter comes from...

Quote
For the day-to-day, I'm definitely a gag writer and artist before I'm a "storyteller." The story unfolds over such a slow, long-term arc, that it's only taking the work in as a whole (which, I should add, I have NEVER DONE BECAUSE AUGH MY OLD ART) that I could describe myself as a storyteller.

I was wondering because I've read the comic a couple of times through (I need a hobby) and I've always seen it as a story, moving at its own pace, with lots of tangents. I also see evidence of that in the individual comics. However, this might also stem from how I am artistically retarded, so while I notice the gradual changes, the day to day stuff is utterly lost on me. You've certainly done a great job of making the comic accessible from all sorts of perspectives.

I never really got into industrial, I'm more into bizarre sequencer-wankery like Venetian Snares or Mouse on Mars or Squarepusher (going from least to most melodic there).

I'm not really a /b/tard at all, actually! I become aware of some of the memes via osmosis, as I imagine most people who spend a good portion of their lives on the internet do. I met Moot once a couple years ago, he's a pretty nice dude.

Are you suggesting that Jeph is a very cool drawing tool?

bodymod89 · « **Reply #1968 on:** 27 Jul 2009, 21:06 »

Two things. Wait, two and a half.

1. Will there be more queer characters in your webcomic? (This is secretly asking if there's potential for Hannelore x Marigold [whomayormaynothaveacock])

2. Why do you discourage others from getting a Pintsize tattoo? Granted, I too understand the dumb implication of getting something "generic" and something you may regret later in life.
a. Of course, I don't think I'd regret getting one because I don't see a potential "GWAH I HATE YOU JEPH FUCK THIS TATTOO IT REMINDS ME OF YOU!" more, specifically because we're not dating, or even like, know eachother.

Listen pal, if you don't mind, could you go back to your little discussions about the comic and Jeph can crank out this size comparison chart for us so that I can finish my Bible/QC slashfic with accuracy?

Toba · « **Reply #1977 on:** 28 Jul 2009, 23:36 »

Jace it had better be King James Version because nothing else is the true word of god and you wouldn't want your slashfic to deviate from your religious precepts now would you?!

Ok, i ACTUALLY HAVE A QUESTION! One with real-world implications at that:

Jeph, you seem to be the knowledgable sort on this matter, I'm looking at getting a new Guitar (the old 'Valencia' acoustic my parents bought me coz they were to cheep to fork out an extra $50 for an electric just doesn't cut it any more), and was wondering what sort you would recomend. Do you know the Brand name "Cort"? The local music shop seems to love them and they only cost about $300. Of course, I'd need an amp too, any particular brand you'd recomend there? If it makes a difference, my style of music is to the heavier end of Rock, but not neccisarily outright metal either (though only time will tell what i am best at playing).

But yeah, QC is teh awsomesauce (mmmmmm... sauce...), keep up the good work man!

PS: Was just strolling through the archives, actualy reading the news posts this time, and in #462 you mention knowing an Australian named Ben. Well guess what dude, you now know two...

jeph · « **Reply #1982 on:** 03 Aug 2009, 19:41 »

If your budget is around $300 for a guitar, anything made in Korea and/or China is going to play pretty much equally well if set up properly. I'm partial to LTDs and Ibanezes myself, in that price range, but Corts and Shechters are fine too. Play one, see if you like it, then buy it. Avoid anything by Fender or Epiphone.

Get one of the smaller Line 6 amps, they are surprisingly good and versatile for a "beginner" or practice amplifier, and will suit your style of music better than, say, a Fender or a Peavey or whatever.

fitsea · « **Reply #1983 on:** 04 Aug 2009, 00:24 »

Jeph, as of comic #1462, how long has it been since Faye and Marten met in QC time? And when was it that you drew that arc (approximately)? Just curious. Thanks.

scarred · « **Reply #1984 on:** 04 Aug 2009, 00:30 »

Jeph, this ain't a question, but you read this thread (occasionally) and I'm too lazy to spam yr inbox.

I love QC, and it's my fave storyline-based webcomic (Penny Arcade doesn't do "continuity") on the webs. You're great. Keep 'em coming.

Thought you ought to know.

OK, see, that wasn't an answer to the question: "I know PHP, use me?"

See, you don't say like... like nothing, or some shit like that. You say, "Yes, I am woefully incompetent at hip things like THE INTERNET. Please help me!" or, "Piss off asshole, you disgust me." Or you can do combinations...

Very nice, sir. It's just I'm sitting on my ass here doing fuck all, so I figured I could put my time to some use that might make my favorite webcomic work better. Ah, well.

So, how long does this "cred" you speak of take to accumulate? Should I check back in a year? A week?

SirJuggles · « **Reply #1998 on:** 12 Aug 2009, 03:08 »

To try and assuage some of the tension that seems to grow oh-so-verdantly in these fertile lands, Jeph has in the past kept the running of the site itself fairly close to his vest. Nothing wrong with it, I just haven't seen him take too much community involvement in the back end. Nothing personall.

As for the "cred" comment, I believe he was referring to your post count, which, due to its visibility, is something of a status indicator around here. Look around, read some threads, post some (well thought out!) replies, and I'm sure you will be welcomed with open arms.

Unless you're a wanker.
