[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	The idea is to have the sprite built out of blocks. See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1Sy9O7nurY for the inspiration. The idea I had was to take that... and supersize it. Utilizing that technique I'd create the characters and attacks so they were 1/2" thick. Then the background would be made with plywood, so it would also stand off of the wall a little bit. I want to mount everything up on the wall in a pattern like this: (I'm open to suggestions) and just because I want to, I'm going to create a tails model to sit on a a shelf that is 1" thick. right now leaning towards this image: As it cannot be too big. So... what say you? -----signature----- Vagina Purse: 'A daily blog about what I find inside me' ~Ticky

	Update from my other postings: I measured the wall, instead of going off memory. It wasn't quite big enough though. I have also changed what I was going to do. I looked around for more sprites and found some that I liked better, plus the background was rather bland. this one works better IMO. Branlaadee Linked me to a nice blog with a forum for this sort of stuff. I'm going to check it out. It's http://www.spritestitch.com/ I'm going to build this out of wood. 1 Plywood plank (set side by side) for the entire background (Ghost House) then another plywood plank on top of it for the foreground (platforms) and finally I will use 1/2" Cubes built into the sprites (characters & attacks) So instead of being just a solid piece, it's going to have a bit of contour to it from the various levels of wood. I think it'll create an awesome effect. Wormwood. posted: Will you be hand painting the blocks? I feel like I'm missing something here. Yup. The blocks will be hand painted then glued together. The Plywood planks will simply be painted and set side by side to create the background, and again for the foreground Edit... Screw Tails. I like Luigi better Going to make a proof of concept 3x3' image. Will look like this: -----signature----- Vagina Purse: 'A daily blog about what I find inside me' ~Ticky

	^_^ The price of wood is a bit more than I expected... Though, that's my own fault. Will need to calculate it all out and probably break it into pieces ` -----signature----- Vagina Purse: 'A daily blog about what I find inside me' ~Ticky
