Fly... by °Phill 2 months 1 week ago

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.

Haha, I know your last comment doesn't pertain to anything I said but I say now that organization and compiling full ideas is hard...I want to do a futuristic novel trilogy and I have the whole idea and even some of it written but when it comes to the whole idea I'm just bleank on the ins outs and in betweens ;/

Or I just start drawing zombies and get side-tracked *dies*.


as much as i would like to say i am organised... i can't. xD
i can totally relate to that =="..."

Damn! If I had your skills my manga would've been on it's third volume by now! Although I only have the first volume written up and only the 1st chapter of the second volume ^^.

If you ever need help with writing, I'll be of service!


LOL! if i had your storyplanning skills i would be more organised and not be wasting my time drawing test pages ><" i get so sidetracked all the time, getting ideas and just wanting to draw it down... help me with my story, lol! if your willing... i just dont want you to sacrifice your time.
not publishing my manga... it will probably end up being a online manga, ill hook you up either way ^^"

O______O;; wow. your art is just amazing. the manga panel also looks very clean and neat! but in the full body picture of cirrus, i think the body and the legs are too short compared to everything else. other than that... good luck with your manga! it's looking really good!


haha yeh thanks for telling me, i've edited the arms to make them a bit shorter in comparison to the legs and body... should be good now.
AND now my finalized manga page! toned, and texted! i like how it turned out, but i didnt like the time it took to complete it =="

Ahh, well, I tried to make as much sense of it as I could, while trying to figure it out myself :P

Oh and what do you think of the names I gave him and her?

OOO! New character!

Is he evil? If he is, what a cute bad guy, lol. He looks like one of those characters that doesn't age.


haha, the name sosuke keeps reminding me of sasuke for some reason ==", whats a name suitable for a guy with a calm, yet cool attitude?
Rina sounds good i think i might use that for the girl ^^
that new character... well, i'll let you think wateva you want now ^^

ok! BUT for a recap on such an EXCITING day... i was working on a battle animation for cirrus but had a really good idea... so i decided to make a test page manga to see just how good i am at panelling... and other techniques... took me a solid 3 hours of work, and i stil havent finished everything... now i know how hard it is for manga artists... =="

anyways enjoy! haha btw think about what the characters are saying since i havent added the text in yet. ^^

In the year 2130 B.C.E, robots were mass produced in order to become "slaves" for the humans. However, by 2140 B.C.E, robots began to attack humans and take over cities and town. In order to counter this, one man, Professor (blah) proposed the transformation from humans to cyborgs, so that people can protect themselves. With having the intelligence of a human, and the calculating and analyzing power of a robot, they would once again florish and take control over the robots. However, the government, does not approve of the Professor's proposal and takes necessary action in order to prevent him from going further with his idea. What they didn't know was that the Professor already created a prototype cyborg that he planned to use it as an experiment to gather more human subjects to work with and hopefully turn into cyborgs. He programmed this cyborg, Sosuke (sorry, first name that popped into my head when I looked at him again) to neutralize humans, but one of the professor's assistants secretly overrides the main program with a sub program which would crash the main program if it ever activated.
During "Sosuke's" first test run, the army was able to intercept him and destroy him. Although he wasn't harmed in the process, the override program was activated causing "Sosuke" to fall off from a high area and becomes damaged. The army assumed that "Sosuke" was eliminated, so they proceeded to the Professor's company building.
The next day, "Rina" (yet again, first name that popped into my mind) found "Sosuke" and brought him to her home. "Sosuke," accepting her hospitality, stayed at her house. As he is watching the news, he sees the report of yesterday's events. As "Rina" came home with the repairs, he quickly turned off the TV.
Instead of purely neutralizing humans, every night his main program inside of him became active, causing him to go off on a killing spree. Soon, he met yet another cyborg like him, in which he forms a friendship with. The "night time fun" being their main activity together. Since the override chip was damaged, it takes about 6 hours for it to detect "Sosuke's" actions. When it does sense it, it makes him feel ill, causing him to go home without another thought.
One week later, "Sosuke's" injuries are nearly recovered. "Rina" then invitesd her dad over, which turned out to be the Professor's assisstant! He revealed to "Sosuke" and "Rina" what the Professor is planning to do, and reconfigurated "Sosuke's" main program with an alternative program in which this time, it "kills robots".


oh man... haha you cleaned that up very nicely... ==" i envy your writing skills, heh. one problem is the robots are working for the professor, they're not trying to take over the world, the professor is. He's just making it seem like robots are running amok so people would believe him.

ANYWAYS, off that topic... i've got down a new character.

Aw, where's the awesome looking characters?


awesome looking characters will be posted up as soon as i find some time between work ^^.

for now, i have the basic idea of the short story i plan to use, give me ideas on improving because im just totally unoriginal and sucky when it comes to writing stories:

so the story set not too far into the future, when robots have become the typical "slaves" of the human society. Professor 1 (well just leave it as that for the time being) plans to revolutionise the world by turning all humans into cyborgs, to create a "safer, better country", no fear of being dominated by robots as cyborgs are stronger and have the mindset of both human AND robot. however the government disapproves and will take all necessary acts to prevent Professor 1's actions. However Professor 1 has already created a prototype cyborg and plans to use it as an experiment to gather more human subjects to work with. He programmed Main Character (haha that sounds corny) to neutralize humans, but Professor 2 (working for Professor one) secretly overrides the main program with a sub program which crashes the main if it ever becomes activated. (omg i read through this plot and i get confused)...
Anyways, the governments special forces intercept Main Character on his first test run and fully blow the crap outta him (supposedly, but Main Character is unharmed). the override program was activated and Main Character falls off a high area and gets damaged. special forces assume Main Character to be eliminated change target and head for Professor 1's company building.
next day, Girl (haha no names yet sorry) found the body of Main character and took him home. Main Character stays at her house and accepts her hospitality. Main Character watches news and see the report of yesterday's events, he turns off the TV when Girl comes home with repairs.
However every night, the main program inside Main Character becomes activated and he goes on a human killing spree. he meets another cyborg like him and they begin forming a friendship through all the "night time fun". since the override chip was damaged, it doesnt detect instantly. Main Character gets a headache and returns home before day breaks.
a week goes by and Main Character is almost recovered from his injuries. Girl invites his dad over, which turns out to be Professor 2...! Professor 2 reveals to Main Character and Girl what Professor 1 is planning to do, and reconfigurates Main Character's main program with a program which "kills robots".

... its so confusing i read it 3 times over myself just to make sure its understandable... =="
the rest of the story is pretty straightforward... Main character goes on robot killing spree, eliminates other cyborg (climax 1), and the twist happens in the 2nd climax between Main CHaracter and Professor 1...

so yeh, bash me for the lameness... i dunt even think its creative but opinions are all accepted ^^

A couple of pictures from past artworks^^;

1 year 8 months ago

"Man i gotta say... that is art museum quality work rite there ^^
im not a real art critique but my favourite is the last piece. after i look at it i feel there is a deep meaning behind why you placed everything where they are... the way i see it is there are multiple steps, each representing a war, and together they form a staircase... and when they all meet, peace will be achieved... however the wires entangling the staircase prevent that from happening.
blood effects, black paint... give the piece of art a dark mood. it really allows the viewer
to understand the message trying to be expressed through the artwork.

the other ones are really good as well! the third one goes really well with the fourth.. i think it is like a tribute to all the fallen in the wars and stuff, their souls representing the paper birds.
and the bottled emotions is really original!

how long did it take you to do all that?"

"New pic, not part of the big manga im currently doing... im thinking of making a short manga first to practice getting used to panelling and storyboarding and all that stuff...
so i decided to create a main character for this short piece. I've pretty much decided on his features already so this should be his final design...

User posted image

yeh pretty bishie, and i also changed my style for this because the story is a bit more serious... don't have a name for him yet. perhaps when i finish writing the story, ill post it up and you guys can think up a name for him.

My drawings and other stuff

1 year 8 months ago

"I'd like to say... how long have you been practising? your first 2 pictures clearly show you have a very imaginative mind and your 2nd and 4th pics show your understanding of anatomy, so i guess you can be considered decent in my eyes. (better than me anyways ^^).

we all make mistakes, but your 2nd picture is just a rough sketch so it doesnt really matter, just to point out the robot's right arm is a tad too long. this is my opinion, i think the robots posture is too stiff, curving the spine a bit and putting its hips a little to the front will make the robot seem less statue and more dynamic... but thats just my taste xD.

i would like to see the fourth drawing finished but so far, its looking fine, except watch out for excess/unnecessary shading, like what ab-angel and princesslover pointed out, the stomach. less shading there would make it seem less rotund ^^"

all in all your drawing ability is good, but you have lots to improve on in terms of digital colouring.

Hey, I really love your concept sketches :] I really think your future Manga might be a success (if the story is good as well).

Do you have their colors planned out as well? If so, can we see a colored piece?


haha no not yet, i still havent decided on the colours as of yet... and since its a manga, not much of it is going to be in colour anyways ^^"
i'm happy that everyone likes my characters, makes me want to keep workin on them ^^ thankyou for the support!

well done with the colouring, your cell shading skills are quite good, good choice of colour as well, green and red work really well together xD. oh and i love the blushes, looks vv nice. ^^
uhh, critique? not much really... the neck is just a tad too narrow, and the sunspot reflections on the eyes should both be going in the same direction, the rest is all fine!
PS. like the scanline effect as well xD"

"Well, bit hard to say how i get my ideas... because they just come to me.. ^^"
i read a lot of manga, play alot of fantasy RPGs and such... so many of my characters were inspired by them... which isnt a good thing in terms of originality, thats why im tryin to develop a more original style.

for example a recent game i have been playing was Yggdra Union.. and this piece was inspired by the game art. (not one of my characters just some random.

and here's the main character of my manga! Cirrus Lightfoot!

i tend to just start drawing random characters... and when i get sparks of idea i just add them onto my character... until it becomes a loaded heap of clothes hair accessories etc... then i start removing/tweaking parts of the character until i am satisfied...
mind you none of the above characters are completely finalized... i get bored really easily and might decide to change them... =="

but thats all the MAIN main characters up... now its just the random characters in the manga to go ^^"

By chance can you help me out? I'm not very good when it comes to drawing weapons and I just need to draw a staff for my character. You think you could make a quick sketch for me? I'll send you the picture.

I'd love to write a story on this, but I'll see what more you come up with. I noticed that you like drawing guys, I do too. It's rare when I draw a female anime character.


haha damn you got my weakness... im really not that good at drawing girls...and if i draw a girl in my style it might end up lookin like one of the above characters... except with longer hair =="

haha your a bit off on the ages... my sketchbook is a bit small so i cramped it all up and squished the heads a bit... ^^"

Eliah - 18

yeh sure! ill give a crack shot at your weapons as well, do you prefer intricately ornamented weapons or more versatile ones like Cloud's uber 7 blade busterblade? xD
