When bored, I have an unhealthy prediliction to randomly create Advance Wars comic strip things.
So, here's a collection for your viewing pleasure/horror.

Winter Wonderland

This Explains Alot...

There are good days when you're a Mech, this is not one of them

A fundamental mystery

It's a project of some kind, I'm sure

The one that started all this off

Watch for Newbies

Yes, I'm biased towards Green Earth, and yes, there may be a Far Side reference or two.

All backgrounds and sprites are copyright their original owners, by the by.

I like these, great work.

What game are you getting the little guys from? Or do you draw them yourself with an 8-bit emulator?

I think they're from Advance Wars for the GBA.

Yeah, they're from Advance Wars 2 in this case.
I am not an artist, so I have to improvise.


Edit:

That said, I'm quite pleased with this fire effect I made.

Nice work! The sharp, detailed backgrounds in contrast with the sprites reminds me of 8-bit theatre. Very cool.

Green Earth tanks are weird, but at least they're not hovertanks like the Black Hole tanks.

Tallgeese! w00t!

But where is the Megatank?!

My waffles, they are roffled.

Being heavely addicted to AW:DS, I find this awesome

The Megatank isn't in Advance Wars 2, which is where the sprites are from. When I find a set of DS sprites, I gaurantee we'll be getting Megatanks. For now, make do with my giantised Neotanks.

I think the Yellow Comet recons in AWDS take the cake for weird.

Have they changed from their little armoured car then? I don't ever play as Yellow Comet, so I haven't noticed. Still, Green Earth Recons are the best. The others get Hummers, jeeps and armoured cars. Green Earth gets a mini-panzer.

I'm making a little series of these for another forum I go to, I'd post them, but they wouldn't make much sense. If anyone knows the best way to reduce an animation's filesize without buggering the quality, I'd appreciate it. (Can't have AW without CO powers, eh?) It's presently about 1.1 megs and I can't seem to lower it further without mangling it.

Just a quick one I threw together while bored. Shockingly, there maybe a recognisable member.

The wonderful world of OSF

Anyone else think it's weird that neo-tanks are tanks with legs, yet they count as tread vehicles?

1.1 megs? What's the animation?

ROTFLMAO

Odd, I don't recognize anyone in particular in that.

They seem to have wheels at the end of the legs, maybe a vertical set of tracks in each leg?

The animation is CO Power- BanHammer

Rogue: NecronLord is in there as the Malevolent General Sturm™. 'Feh, you'll all be mine in the end'
He kinda got shrunk as I uploaded it though.

Yes, that is true. Look at the Neo Tanks roll around. They're so cute. Like Tachikomas.

Just a quick little one I made while bored.
I give you the totally unbiased SWvST debate forum!

The rabid trekkie's grammar is too intellegent, but otherwise, very good.

*Falls out of chair laughing* good stuff

No bombers? No Advance Wars smackdown is complete without bombers. Or b-ships, for that matter. But still, that was funny.

"FOR THE EMP—woops, wrong forum. move plz" Heh.

I didn't think the bombers looked quite right for an imperial side. I could use an ISD sprite though, anyone got any ideas?
And yeah, I had to make the guy actually readable. Maybe I'll make a special edtion l33t one for you.

C'mon Vanas, please please pleeeeease make one with the Megatank in it - I recently built a lot of them, so I have a sudden hankering for the five gunned death machine.
