2010′s Tops.

I thought about doing a written year review.. but I decided against it because I realised I’d just be repeating what I posted before (the corkboard). But in light of today (New Year’s Eve), I shall do a post for it . I decided I’ll throw down a couple of personal “tops” for 2010. Any sort [...]

[Review] Suzumiya Haruhi no Shoushitsu.

AKA – The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya. OK, so this movie has been out for a long time now but I haven’t watched it until yesterday because only the LQ (bootlegged) version has been available. (Mazui recently released the HQ versions – DVD/BD only came out on the 18th of December; on the main date this [...]

[REVIEW] Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai.

Just finished this season today, and this was probably one of (if not) the best series this season (Autumn 2010). Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai aka Oriemo at first glance I had a few impressions; 1. Daaaaaaaaaamn that’s a long series name, 2. Very interesting storyline + art. Anyway time to [...]

[Anime] Winter 2010/2011 – Preview.

With the Autumn 2010 season coming to an end.. it’s time to have a look at the upcoming season; Winter 2010/11. At first glance I cannot say anything quite catches my eye except for a few surprising sequels and familiar manga titles. Anyway, on with the rant!

[Vector] Yagyu Jubei ~ Hyakka Ryouran (Day 7).

Quickly before I go to bed. Now that my new rig is up and running with all the applications and stuff now (I think). Somewhat good timing too, Kira-Fansubs released the 1920×1080 Blu-Ray version of Hyakka Ryouran so I too a NCOP (No Credit Opening) screencap and replaced the current 1280×720 screencap. A few new [...]

[Vector] Yagyu Jubei ~ Hyakka Ryouran (Day 6).

Haven’t been doing much extra; it’s getting quite difficult.. I’ve had a look at a few reference pictures to see what certain blurry parts actually are.. So I’ve done some huge revamps: The headpiece on her head was so hard to etch in. I deleted the first sword because it still looked too weird.. I [...]

[Vector] Yagyu Jubei ~ Hyakka Ryouran (Day 5).

Erm.. at first glance it would seem that I have not done much.. The left sword is going to be terribly hard.. Then the face! Ughhhhhhhhh.

[Vector] Yagyu Jubei ~ Hyakka Ryouran (Day 4).

The damn lower body is so hard to trace from the low res. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!   EDIT: Much better..

[Vector] Yagyu Jubei ~ Hyakka Ryouran (Day 3).

Yea.. quite happy with it so far, we’ll see how it goes. Yawn.. makes me so tired.

[Vector] Yagyu Jubei ~ Hyakka Ryouran (Day 2).

Just got back from the movies. Anyway here’s today’s progress: I had to check some other scenes in the anime to figure out what the hell was on her neck lol. Some guess work with that stupid necklace. Fixed some stuff with her hair accessories.. could not get a good angle on the badge/pendant thing [...]
