    The Kyber Crystal of Eternia, A MOTU action figure adventure!

    Some fun with vintage Masters of the Universe figures, but the story's not over yet!

    Edit: Some of the images have been touched up.

    Here goes:

    Interesting so far. Yeah, you're right about working in MS Paint, but do keep it up. I'd like to know how this finishes.
    Fictional characters are just that. Fictional. They have no personality or free will of their own.
    Writers and editors mold them to their own wants and needs.
    All we as the audience and fans can do is pick and choose our favorite interpretation and ignore the rest.

    Very cool. I love Old School. I like the lighting. If I had access to a camera again, I'd do stuff like this. Cant' wait to see more.

    Excellent work. I love the quality of the photos...the lighting and sharpness are top notch.
    That's a shame about your Photoshop, but you're doing really good stuff with MS Paint.

    Is this the end for Grayskull and Eternia?
    Is Man-at-Arms doomed to be chained to the walls of Snake Mountain for all Eternity?
    Is He-Man dead?

    Are we going to see any more Heroic Warriors? Or perhaps some new locales?

    You've taken some great pictures, very very sharp, your lighting can be downright eerie at times, and your special effects are pretty cool.

    I look forward to seeing more, keep up the good work!

    Oh my God! When I saw this thread, I thought it was going to be another Twisted Mego Theater sort of comedy (which I always enjoy). I can't believe it's a serious story, and furthermore that I'm really enthralled with it! I can actually hear John Erwin and Alan Oppenheimer when I'm reading it. It's even got a classic style plot. This really makes me want to do my own stories, too.

    I can't wait to see what happens next!

    Thanks for the compliments guys! sure motivates me to keep working on it!

    I was going for a more 'grown up' (skeletor talks about killing!) yet classic vibe. Sounds like I'm on the right track!

    Updates: I have installed photoshop! so I can produce better images from now. Notice that I used the modern Grayskull don't own the vintage version.

    Now to continue the story....

    This is good. Hurry up! We can't leave He-Man in Skeletor's dungeon.
    You can have all of the toys in the world, but they're all worthless if you have no one to play with.

    Will Stratos make it to Snake Mountain with the Orb in time?
    How will he rescue He-Man and his friends?
    Or will Skeletor's minions get to him first?

    Thanks for the positive response everyone!

    it sure does take alot of time to setup, light and add the effects and dialogue to every shot! But it sure is fun! especially old school classic fun!

    It's the big boys' way of playing with toys eh?
