Hello All

Big fan of Viper RSR here. Was hoping to find some of the rare VIPER RSR stuff/pics that no one else has like the Birdskull chick, Gold Thunderbot, or Blue Catfish creature. Maybe even the Character Sheets for the Viper RSR girls so that I can learn to draw them better. And so as to not be just a leech I drew a one of a kind pic of all three Girls from RSR that will only be posted here on this website if someone could just tell me where we post images/Fanart at. I'm by no means a great artist but it's really all I have to contribute until I get my hands on a Viper RSR Artbook at which point I will scan every page and post since I'm pretty sure no one has done that yet.

Long live the Viper underground!

(edit) Crap just saw the intro thread! Sorry Mods move or delete as you see necessary!

Er...um I was actually hoping someone could tell me where I can post my little RSR tribute pic that I drew. I guess I can just post it here for the fans to enjoy and the Mods can tell me later where it needs to go. So here it is then, one of three images I have planned.

Nice artwork - very unusual to see Julietta fanart. I would definately rate you in the "great artist" category based on this image. Can't wait to see the other two images you mentioned.

The server you uploaded that one to is fine if you want to use it for the others. The Super Arts forum is where fanart is usually posted, but VIPER fan art is generally better of in one of the VIPER forums, so I've moved it there instead.

No one scanned the whole RSR Art Book to my knowledge, since its mostly screenshots and in-game artwork, or the pencil sketches for such. The book is almost exclusively plot summary and walkthrough, but I have posted the full page artwork here in the past. I'd link to the gallery for it but Hyperguy's recent overhaul of the portal has broken the gallery so I can't do it right now.

The RSR book makes the occasional cameo on ebay if you're looking to buy for collecting. Usually runs about $40 plus shipping. But if you have all the game art and the few extra photos floating around (like the scans gallery I mentioned) then you'd have just about everything already.

Many thanks for the compliment JG00 this first pic is the most mild of the three planned bt the way

Thanks for moving this for me as well, much appreciated! As for the RSR Art book I was hoping to find in it a source for more imagery on the somewhat unseen creatures/monsters that are hinted at on the DVD cover.
Basically is there anything else out there with these characters? And any of that Line-art you alluded to beside whats in the non-operational gallery?

JG · « **Reply #4 on:** August 19, 2008, 07:39:30 am »

Those are all monsters from the DVD version of the game, which has extra monsters and a number of new and extended animated scenes - its about 20% larger than the CD version.

You might be able to get it from one of the threads on the downloads board. The Vipers in DDL thread has links but I don't know if they're all working anymore. If not, search around for a torrent on other sites.

But if all you're looking for are better images of these three new bosses, I can hook up you up later.

Thanks again for being so helpful JG00 I found what I believe to be a DVD version torrent and if so then I can extract what I need via Grapholic. The downside is it could take a week or longer at this rate so any help with just the Harpy chick and Catfish creature would be awesome and of course at your convenience. Thanks again partner.
Just wondering JG00, is Julietta a favorite of yours I wasn't sure if I read too much into your callout on her earlier or not?

JG · « **Reply #6 on:** August 20, 2008, 07:05:22 am »

All I was saying is that there needs to be more Julietta fan art. Alot of Cala and quite a bit of Jota floating around, but not much Julietta. (But to answer your question: Sure, what's not to like about her?)

Since HG went nuclear on the gallery, I've had to reupload the VIPER art book scans to one of my sites. Enjoy:
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 31

And some pictures of the monsters you requested:
Thunder Bot: 728
Tremor Catfish: 802
Skull Bird : 855 | 858 (1) | 858 (2)

You are the "MAN" JG00!!! these are HUGE!!! and mega thanks for the pics my torrent finished yesterday but I've spent at least half a day fighting with ISO Breaker, Alcoholic 120, Daemon Tools and half a dozen other ISO crackers to get the game files opened up but it looks like a corrupted file so again thanks for the effort on your part (Julietta will get special attention for this >

And as for the Catfish creature wow! That just goes to show you what happens when you run over budget on the animation.....no ARMS! LOL

Thanks again brother the artwork will reflect your efforts!

Been to the Dlsite before but not really familiar with what constitutes a Circle? Anyone who thinks my stuff is that good is ok in my books though. Thanks Sleepy_we!

glad I saved Magelord's image of win before the board ate it 0_o

Magelord · « **Reply #15 on:** September 09, 2008, 02:53:02 am »

Hmmm now I'm confused I thought the board was being upgraded to a new style of forum? Did we get hacked or something?

Hyperguy · « **Reply #16 on:** September 09, 2008, 03:01:27 am »

Basically what happened was that I upgraded the forum to the wrong version, spent 2 days trying to get it back to normal, frustratingly gave up and left it as SMF 2.0, heard the hearts and souls of the people and harnessed it to restore the forum from a sparse backup that just happened to have been made right before the site was migrated(Y'know, that last news posts before everything went kaput), and then, after bringing most things back to normal, upgraded the forum to SMF 1.5.

So, this is the upgraded version of the forum, that is, the one that it was meant to be upgraded to. All posts and changes between August 28th and September 5th didn't make it since they're incompatible.

That's it in a walnut shell.

Oh yeah! Last time in this topic, I think you and JG were discussing making a Karin image or something. Sorry that the posts got eaten.

Magelord · « **Reply #17 on:** September 09, 2008, 04:18:04 am »

oooooohhhhh ok. Karin is not forgotten at all I got a paid commercial art project at the tail end of this weekend that I just finished for an out of state client. So now Karin is top Shelf again!

JG · « **Reply #18 on:** September 09, 2008, 07:57:24 am »

And I've not forgotten my end of the bargain either. I'm about three quarters done.
