While I'm on news duty.... PBeM Client to get a make over :D

Post by Ithilkir »

Guess most of you know about http://nkelsch.planet3k.com/default.aspx bu now (A great mini icon site with Blood Bowl icons), well checked the site today and it seems he's doing a pile for the PBeM client.. Wooooo :)
Guess what? Someone likes my icons so much he has decided to use them in a program of his… It seems word really gets around. I am going to take a slight 'detour' and be making icons for his program. Don't worry, That probably means new Blood Bowl icons for a while…And once I complete the icons, life will return to normal!

The program is a nifty tool for playing Blood Bowl by Email called PBeM BB. Love Blood Bowl and I am excited to know I can work on such a cool project. Imagine the SCREENSHOT with bunches of little cool Blood bowl dudes on it. I am excited as well are the creators of the project. Check it out and everyone play Blood Bowl By Email!

And check out Tom's site… www.midgardbb.com
Kewl!

The work Nick is doing for Ronald and I will not be animated.

Its going to take a while. There are about 90 different positions in the current official and experimentla rules that each need an icon and Nick is trying to do 2 to 3 different icons for each of those 90 positions. Then each icon needs to be drawn in 12 different poses. Standing, Moved, Ball Carrier, Moved Ball Carrier, Prone, and Stunned ... than double those 6 by having versions where each of those 6 show that the player has lost his Tackle Zone.

So that's a lot of icons ..... for those doing the math at home that 180*12 ... or about 1,100 icons that Nick needs to create and then I'm going to do the lost TZs icons from these 1,100 to create the other half.

ie its a lot of work ... don't expect it soon.
