MOPHO Last Analog Transmission

February 28, 2023 Leave a comment

In 2008, the Editor in Chief of Producer’s Edge magazine, Drew Spence, was inspired by the Dave Smith Instruments synthesizer MOPHO. Sound designer and Media Editor Griffin Avid released a soundpack of elements created purely by the MOPHO. Rap Artist Lenzmen Dynamics Plus released the album Dynamic Universe Volume 12 Battlestrux Year One: Captain of a Starship. The bonus track “MOPHO Last Analogue Transmission” was bundled with the magazine DVD. That song was entirely composed of sounds made with the MOPHO.

This work is a depiction of the events detailed in that music recording. It’s a song created in tribute to the Dave Smith Instruments MOPHO desktop synthesizer. A vessel responds to a hail and find out what the Push It button is for on the MOPHO.

The young Captain Dynamics Plus will see the light of destruction. 22 Pages, full color, standard format for your collecting pleasure.

Kitbash3d.com Mission to Minerva Entry Drew Spence

Kitbash3d.com has a global art challenge where they have released a free kit and artists are able to use the kit in an animated (motion) or 2D (still) piece. Submit the piece to the contest by tagging Kitbash3D.com (#KB3Dchallenge on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or Artstation). Details of the contest rules and prizes are on the site. https://kitbash3d.com/pages/minerva

I discovered Kitbash3d years ago. They were offering high quality model kits that were mostly aimed at high-end 3D users, artists, VFX and concept/story board illustrators. The packages come in different software formats. [3DS Max, Blender, Cinema4D, FBX + OBJ, Houdini, MAYA, Unity, Unreal]. My main software is Daz Studio so I usually download the Unreal or Blender version and export to OBJ+ Texture files. At around $199 USD it’s a solid deal for the amount and variety of pieces that come with any set. For me, there was no hesitation with jumping in on this contest. Their kits were already part of my asset library and the Mission to Minerva offering would be an easy addition.

The follow-up story to the graphic novel The God of Fury took place at an army-like basecamp. I found the overall layout inspirational and some of the elements, like the radar towers, figure prominently in the story. The Transport and Rover are key vehicles. I need a lot of functionality from the assets I use for my comics. Kitbash3d does a wonderful job of supplying models that look great up close and they have now implemented texture sizes as a choice. I’ll be sharing my comic book entry across all my social media profiles. Thank you for your support.

A comic book is a powerful medium of expression that speaks to a wide variety of ideas and emotions across all genres. DAZ Studio is a great tool to generate renders for your creating comic book artwork!

However, it can take a great deal of time in building and rendering those scenes. The Comic Book Creation kit (bundle version) saves you time and energy in providing you with over a hundred renders ready to select from and build your own comic book. This kit includes an extensive video course of over 13 hours of instruction and insights on composing your comic by Drew Spence, a professional comic book artist.

The artwork in this kit is royalty-free – so you are free to create and publish your own stories with this kit. Over 1250 PNG renders of various characters are included across contemporary, sci-fi, and fantasy scenes. The renders come in a selection of styles ready to select, sequence, and compose into your own story.

Drew teaches you how to use and arrange the elements of a comic book:

  • Panels
  • Lettering
  • Word/Thought balloons
  • Captions
  • Sound effects
  • Panels
  • Borders
  • Gutters

He shows you how to…

  • Map a story structure onto a comic book layout
  • Show, rather than tell a dynamic story
  • Progress and express characters through their story arcs
  • Create strong visual appeal
  • Gain a comic book style that fits your story
  • Comprehend comic book elements and use them to your advantage
  • Compose comic book elements with confidence
  • Master composition of characters in a shot (for a panel)

This course is for you if you are…

  • Overwhelmed with the prospect of creating a comic book
  • Wanting to add extra impact or emotion to your visual story,
  • Needing a comprehensive understanding of comic book elements in all their varieties and how to use them effectively.
  • Having challenges in using composition for comic book elements
  • Wanting to experiment with comic book creation without having to render scenes yourself.

This is Part 1 of a 3 part Course. There’s also a bundle version available.
