Finished Unlimited Blade Works. Humanity is saved, but the feels that Gilgamesh could've off'd everyone with Ea alone (no Enkidu needed) still lingers. Arrogance.

Body is ready for Heaven's Feel. Already having Sakura feels.

Okay, here's my draft of the week:

sonozaki_shion_1.jpg


Only one Sonozaki, Tayeez. Sorry for only doing half the job, but hey- I want to push this draft to refined linework and colouring later so I want to use the next few weeks' worth of submission for this. I hope this will be okay with you.


BTW guys, don't draw tilted heads like I do. It's totally wrong because I'm overcompensating for the foreshortening.

edit: notes to self:
-either shrink the chin to create more tilt or pull the nose and lips down a bit to reduce it.
-shrink the left arm a bit to foreshorten it more.
-tilt the shirt tuck "rim" a bit more to exaggerate her leaning forward.
-Maybe lift the lower eyelids a bit more to create a happier or even ecstatic expression.
-Draw a better knee.

It started the other day. No one has yet to license it though so you have to get it through other means

Actually FUNimation has it. Like usual they're slow about getting simulcasts out of the gate at the beginning. So they'll be late by days, even a few weeks.

It happened, just holy 🤬.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes after all this time has been licensed.

Indeed, that's the biggest failure of the entire figure, as she shot her Fire Arrow with two fingers instead of one:

I actually didn't event take that one into account, go figure. That's definitely something as expected from you, the TGAT Mex-man with a degree in "Rayearth-related innacuracies". :sly:

These figurines aren't the most accurate in the world, but hey, they do their job just fine, no?

We're glad they even exist. In the last year or so there's been a strange onslaught of Rayearth merchandise -the Clamp gilrs must have noticed one less zero on their bank account, or they simply want another island or something-, but these are the first true figures of the girls in almost 20 years. That alone was enough reason to get them. They were not that expensive either, we're talking about $120 for the three figures, which isn't bad for what they are.

God bless Clamp's greediness then, I guess. If that makes any sense... And who knows, maybe this "onslaught of Rayearth merchandise" will prompt other companies to join the fun, and perhaps even create new figures/figurines that are Rayearth-related. One can hope, right? And well, as a huge fan of Rayearth yourself, it's already a great sight to see actual Rayearth figurines of the main characters after such a long time since the show aired, I bet...
 
I'm gonna be pretty sad once I'm done with Sakurasou... I'm only 5 episodes in

@AOS- it's looking good mate 👍

In other news, dayum, I enjoy 'That' show too much. There's a thread over in the GT7 section about fan made UI. I've been making it a bit of a habit to make Event Cards similar to those of GT3. Since this pertains to an anime, thought I'd post it here too. So today, this idea came about:

Indeed. Before these, there was only a series of chibi keychains and such stuff, the last proper figure release for them was... I think it was this resin set by Yetiart:

wich was extremely rare, expensive, and well, it was just resin, you had to put it together and paint it and all that. Interesting project if each wasn't about 200 euros or so :crazy:

200 euros!? Holy Cefiro, that's expensive stuff alright. :scared:
But to be fair, they look like a whole different monster compared to the figures you own, in quality that is. Of course, being made of resin AND forcing its owner to paint and put them together, they aren't the easiest things to own and such. Still, dat sword detail...

Well, those are already painted and stuff, they don't come like that. Since you put them together by yourself, you can go stupid-crazy with detail. I've seen custom clear-plastic jewels on the swords and armors, custom glasses for Fuu, textured paint and stuff like that. But an already-painted set with such features hovers the 600-700 bucks, which isn't bad, but unjustifiable :lol:

Not even your passion for Rayearth can justify 600 bucks worth of figurines, huh? Well, one does have to draw some sort of limits, after all. :lol: And yes, that's indeed some incredibly insane amount of detail; custom Fuu glasses? Now that's true WaiFuu respect right there.

Yeah, that's a bit too much, all of it. I'd love to, but no thanks. I'll stay within pre-painted figures limits.

Fair enough, that's what I would do as well. I'm about as good with making figures as Conan Edogawa is good as singing. And last time I checked, Conan is tone deaf, so you know what I mean...
 
It's happening.
Miss Monochrome got another season. Let's go eat some alkaline batteries.

I didn't even watch the first season. I thought it was rather morbid.

After Sailor Moon Crystal we just want to put that crap out of our minds lmao

I still have some respect for Usagi. It's just not this so-called "improved" version that Toei claims they made, when in fact it's anything but that. Same goes for the rest of the Sailor Senshis; unless the next seasons of Crystal want to prove me wrong (which I would gladly accept, by the way).
 
Bought this a few days back. Came in today

Got some nice art in there, though 99% of it is the same style. Now if they can translate the rest of the material...
