Fly... by °Phill 1 week 1 day ago

^nat
This wallpaper captures the urban essence that proliferated the art of Ghost in the Shell in every incarnation of the series. Phill does an amazing job of capturing a moment of surrealism.

While there are a few, stray building angles and shadows, you find that your eye forgives the minor details and instead focuses on the overall scene that is larger than life, with lights trailing off into infinity.

10 months 3 days ago

"As a devoted fan to an anime, ill collect random stuff, stuff like for example and OST,
great to listen to the original tracks of my few favourite themes but now wat :P

Stuff

"Lol, reading that bak, i cant fully understand myself.. ha..

well...
the two other characters you hav thats looking to the left.. are fine...
its all shaped right and such...
but with your other character thats looking to us... well

isnt she looking at us from an angle, not straight on... the hair shows that she's looknig from and angle, but with that face, it looks too flat to well .. look right

and i was comparing that to the other two characters, think wat their face shape would be like when they turn their face to the left alittle, just enough to look right at us...

somebody help me out here if i aint explaining it right...
unless im totally wrong about this

hhmmm.. gram someone and put them in that position or something... :S"

Stuff

"Was that a spam (o.O) lol

well i can say for sure you cg alot better than me... which i guess is the next step for me...

one thing, with your characters face...
i know everybody has their own style and thats wat we all want, a variety of ideas and wat-not.. but atm it just seems abit flat, or dull...
sorry if this offends or anything...

also noting, in your second pic, i was just thinking, wat happen to the face of the furthest right, it looks like the style from the first pic so ok... but with the other two characters... im trying to imagine wat if those people turned their face on that angle, it just doesnt seem realistic

just keep practising, and look at some "how to draw head" tuts or something at like deviantart, this shouldnt change your style but might help you get the i guess, the way a human shapes like or something... (i don't know if there is a tutorial with that exact name, just poking ideas)

before i go.. just wanna say, with the girl on the furthest left...
should hav bent her bak abit, i think people usually don't hav their bak straight when sitting like that :P

I absolutely hate Bleach...

What's so bad about the actual animation of Bleach, i personally can't tell the difference between animation in the later episodes compared to the earlier ones. I for one prefer anime over manga just because of the degree of drawing quality.


drawing quality.. er :P

but yeh... i myself say that the animation quality has toned down, but alot of people still perfer anime just for like well, animation... like recently with grimjow fighting ichigo, ofcourse its more intense than the manga but hey :O

the ironic thing is, i think that the manga quality at the start wasnt as good as it is now, kubo (somthing)'s style changed through out the volume :P"

"I hate pencils, they betrayed me, so ive given them up, not fully but their not my partner anymore :P

but yeh, your hella good with pencial drawings, i wont hav the patients to do watcha do
ur shading is really good, but your size proportion is abit off..
go to deviantart and search like "tutorial body" to learn to perfect the human body..

just a suggestion :P
keep on drawing mate :D"

Just got a Wacom INTOUS 3 Tablet

10 months 5 days ago

"So yeh, with the tablet i hope i can fully learn how to draw perfectly,
plan is so far to trace and learn the mechanics of anime...
which i found its pretty important and complicated
im still abit puzzled but i hope to master it during the xmas holi's
if some may havnt notice, im trying to draw like Hisashi Hirai's style
most famous for the character design for gundam seed, but i actually never really finish watching that series, although im abit more fan to Sokyu no Fafner and Heroic Age, his other works

[looking bak at my old pic's i feel like choking myself, cant believe i thought that was good/alright]

so yeh, everybody keep drawing, and commenting..."

OMG Demons!!! Sketches of Demons

10 months 5 days ago

"Oh woah, just looking at those pics im get ideas
random anime story with human like warriors with the ability to transform..

unfortunatly these stories are taken like heroic age with transforming into a mecha sized being, ps3's white knight story with kid also transforming into a mecha sized 'knight'
but urs are like "legendary myth like creatures" so yeh... awesome concept.. should expand on this hahaahha

but yeh, im no fan of demon stuff but these dont seem very demonic.. their usually very death related but these bare closer to like FF summons so yeh..

keep up, and wanna see more

Why did you like Code Geass

1 year 5 days ago

"My few points
-So after watching the last episode of the season, i was so amazed... couldn't have been any better.
-About half way through the series, i thought.. hhmm... just gundam seed again with Arthun and Kira, old friends that has to fight each other through the series that become buddies at the end.. but they proved me wrong, which was good
-Nina.. she's nuts, not a highly developed character that has such a pretty significant
-Honestly to say, i really don't care about CC's past, it just never hit me to wanting to wonder.

So all in all, i was wondering, what made this show such a ultimate hit
what was the one top reason you watched and i assume enjoyed the show?
Because:
it's character design was by CLAMP
of it's Mech design/action
of it's story and characters
[just to name a few, any others]

post a "short title reason" with the quote's title and the "reason description" and the quote's text

example/me


It's story and characters
The simple story of revenge and betrayal that loops all over the place, all worked together with such great characters. My homage goes to Lelouch, his the character you'll love to hate. His so intelligent that it makes him evil. Always adapts to any situations to achieve his goals, even when the worst happens. All the conflicts he has with all other characters, especially Suzaku, just never know when they'd be together again. Behind all his zero concern for the lives of anybody, his totally devoted to his dear sister's future. so he isn't totally heartless


thats all i got right now... i dunno how to explain why i like his character, so bad that its good

So what was the very reason you like the show and why?"
