Welcome to the FPSC Comic Contest, the aim of the competition is simple, to
produce the best sequence of eight images which tell the whole or part of a story, the end result must flow like a comic strip.
You must use FPS Creator (X9/X10)to create the scenery and position the characters for your eight images, take a screenshot and add any effects or dialogue needed to create or continue the story.
Two separate examples are given below which present two different graphical styles:
