FAQs
about Grand Theft Exodus
GENERAL
STUFF
How long has Grand Theft Exodus been around?
Grand Theft Exodus started and a once a week, one panel strip
on the week of July 26, 2009.
Why "Grand Theft Exodus?"
Grand Theft Exodus was created from the paper and pencil roleplaying
setting that I created, NeoExodus:
A House Divided. The name of the main planet in NeoExodus:
A House Divided was Exodus, and the main two characters
were thieves, I kind of just fit hand in hand.
When
do you update?
In theory we update once a week. We hope to increase our frequency
until we reach a 5 day a week schedule. So the more people you
tell about Grand Theft Exodus the more chance of that happening.
Are
Niobe and Tahki based off real characters?
Kind of, sort of. I really have to explain that to you face to
face. It wouldn't make sense if I tried to here.
PROCESS
STUFF
How long does it take you to do a strip?
Since
I just do the writing (The easier of the job in my opinion) I
normally write four to five panels in about two or three hours.
Paolo take about two to four hours to do draw. Paolo draws directly
in Adobe
Illustrator and then sends it over to me where I
bring it into Adobe
Photoshop where I letter the work and get it ready
for the web. Taa-Daa!!!!!!
What
do you use to update your website?
Adobe
Dreamweaver with Adobe
Photoshop. No hand coding for me, I am way too busy
for that.
What
about supplies?
A pencil, piece of paper, dictionary and Google.com (Got to
check facts once and a while).
MERCH
& BUSINESS STUFF
I wanna T-shirt. Do you have T-shirts?
I
am working on that as we speak so just hang on for a while.
I wanna book. Do you have books?
No, not yet. But when we go to five strips a week it will happen
sooner than you think.
Can
I advertise on your site?
Please do! I am saving up for a house and my wife and I are trying
to have 3 kids, so you know I will be broke ALL THE TIME. The
best way to advertise with me is with our Project wonderful banner
ads. Click below the ads for more information on how you can advertise
on my site! Remember, we are planning on having three kids to
support so I will need your ads.
Do
you sell your originals?
No, well kind of. Since everything we do is digital there is nor
"paper & pencil" artwork to sell. BUT, we do sell
posters and prints of the strip. Follow the link under the strip
to find out how.
