Black Angel – Black Rock Shooter Photoshop

by radiantdreamer October 20, 2010 in Anime & Video Games, Anime Figures, How To Draw Anime & Photoshop 32 comments tags: anime, black rock shooter, brs, figma, hatsune, Kannagi, kodomut, miku, photoshop, toradora, troupes, valkyria chronicles 2, video games, zetsubou sensei
Kodomut had some problems trying to get his shot looking right, and eventually gave up. I asked him for the image so I could get a crack at it with some photoshop magic.

Moe Passion Mascot Contest (and other stuff)

Comrade Punynari decided to hold a contest for artists to design a new mascot for his site, Moe Passion. He used a moe character generator (more info on his site), to design the mascot, but wanted something with a little more artistic liberty to fit with his site’s main theme – being a blog of a US sailor and otaku. His design was quite interesting, and very impressionable to me, so I gladly took on the challenge. That and he also wanted to draw on a Navy motif gave me just the inspiration I needed in order to make his mascot Sakura more unique. Drawing this style was definitely out of my comfort zone, as I don’t do a lot of moe feeling characters. That and I’ve still yet to grasp the subtle nuances of the loli-moe proportions.

My Gaming Habits of ’09

1.5 years ago I started to track my gaming trends, how my life’s events affect it, and vice versa. I wanted to do this so I could literally gauge my habits of gaming by the hour. The results are quite an interesting reality check!

Neogaf is having a contest. Well, actually it’s more like Arc System Works Europe is holding a contest hosted by Neogaf. So I’ve decided to participate with heated soul! Part 2 of my work, continuing from Part 1.

Noel Vermillion – Blazblue Fan Art

This isn't the first time I've done fan-art. But this is the first time I've tried to make fan-art look like official art. While it's not quite to par with official art, I'd say I come fairly close. More pix and video after the jump!

Miku Hatsune in SC4?! Well, sort of…

The Create a Soul feature of Soul Calibur IV is pretty fully featured this time around. They’ve added a lot of detail to it in order to make clothes fit better, have more colored parts, and overall good revamp of the color tinting system so things don’t go completely out of whack when tweaking colors. Several people on NeoGAF have already made some great recreations. I’ve posted my own recreations here, as well as a few of my favorites that I’ve seen on GAF, with minor modifications. Note that all details are color calibrated as accurately as possible, and with Japanese voices instead of English.

Ah! Taisen Shiyo! Chiyo-Chan FTW!!!

Ah! Taisen Shiyo, Ah! Taisen Shiyo : Come Back! Publisher : Snow Dharma Released : 2004, 2005 Platform : PC I wish I wish I wish I had this game. Too bad it was released in 2004. Chances of finding this nice little fan-made game are next to nil now. A sequel was even made for it too! C’mon, you know you want to play as adorable little Chiyo-chan and kick some serious ass (who wouldn’t?). Well, too bad… I can’t find it anywhere. So here are some screen-shots for amusement purposes anyway.
