EFII Episode 8 – Ninja Mountain

Episode 8 of the Escape From Illustration Island Podcast features an audio interview with Ninja Mountain, a collective of Illustrators working in the Fantasy and Sci-Fi field. Together we discuss the origins of Ninja Mountain, the evolution of the podcast side of the mountain, and the controversial question: “Are forums dead?” We get some exclusive insight into the genesis of their group-format show, via a reading of the coveted Ninja Mountain Scrolls, a previously protected portion of early forum discussions. The international collective also shares some of the resources that they use on a regular basis to get the job done.
Weigh in on the current state of the online forum by taking part in the poll at IllustrationMundo.com.
