First off I hope everyone is coping okay with the current unprecedented situation. Stay safe and spare a thought for key workers the world over at every level who are on the front line of the pandemic. We'll get through it and good health to all.
Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to have a look at the first post of the Funky Punk Comics blog which will be the new home for my Fred Fortune comic.
Fred is a fun loving free spirit of the future who likes nothing better than lots of beer, his friends, a good curry, lots of beer, his flying car and... ahem... lots of beer. He lives by his wits and is always getting into scrapes that he usually embraces with a cheery grin and a song in his heart. And there's car chases... lots and lots of car chases.
The story is set in roughly 1000 years time in the city of Imperium, nicknamed 'Shitty City'. The city was once the proud capital of Earth's Solar Empire, but after 500 years of galactic war it has fallen into disrepair and squalor, it's mile high towers long since past their prime and the lower levels are dark with a nasty dank whiff in the polluted air.
The first new Fred story, entitled 'City of Tomorrow', will be divided into three or four 40-50 page graphic novels that will be crowdfunded. In the story the city is invaded and taken over by the mad evil pirate King Lord Tim Timminy-Tim-Timminy-Timtim-Terry (!)
So far the first forty or so pages are scripted, with the first twenty being pencilled and the first two are completed bar the lettering. I hope you'll join us as Fred's new chapter begins...
Here's a quick sequence from the Fred animation that was part of an old college project back in the 90s... It is a short two minute cartoon that was all done traditionally- hundreds of hand drawn acetate cells and eighteen painted backgrounds, filmed on high band video- it was done before digital animation. As I don't have a video copy that could be digitised I have scanned all the cells and backgrounds and will be remaking it digitally. As soon as it's done it will be posted on YouTube.
Next time- Meet the cast #1
Coming soon- Fred Fortune's secret origin and lots of other stuff...
Stay safe everyone.
