epic release #6 august 2000 Well its been about a billion years since our last release (january to be exact) the but once again we return with a vengeance epic crew ready to take on all those alleged artists out there (glue used ) ) @argon alla xul Unless you ve been living in some obscure ansichrist far away land (like finland) you no doubt +h7 have noticed Epic has been to put it +juice kindly DEAD lately I admit I am at platoonim partial fault for this The simple reanimator fact is that I ve been interested skybax in other things lately ranging from @sodium school to different hobbies so naturally +stone the crow I had no time to draw anything for awhile Members of epic seemed to mirror this + = new for a few months as the group was about @ = staff as lively as a nursing home on heroin However I must take this opportunity to rant get a few things off my chest Like I said this was partially my fault But the blame also lies on the group as a whole I don t expect artists to produce 6 pics a month (although that would kick ass) but I just want to put out the word that we as a group need to draw more regularly and support each other whenever need be We haven t been much of a group lately just a collection of names As much as I hate to say it it s true With that in mind understandably the group membership changes has gone through many membership changes in the past few months Some of the members have greets go to left so obscurely that I m not even sure who the epic crew & has officially quit so I ll make things easy aesthetic (rippa) the member list as it stands is final a k a Anyone not on the list is no longer in the STC s No 1 fan! group unless they email me about it and draw regularly Needless to say I really hate it when did you know artists just drop out of the scene without epic was formerly notifying me they are quitting known as one we had a name change Stone the Crow has joined up yes that s right the before the first oldschooler himself! His art always gives me release and many warm fuzzies inside kinda like the feeling after artists left a six pack of coronas Yes my friends that s the including the co- STC feeling founder (ellisdee) Juice has joined formerly known as Phli of Sodapop He s got some great logos in the pack and hopefully we ll see amazing things out of this artist in the months to come Also H7 has joined us This guy s got some skills both in ansi and ascii art!
