Problem is, I don't really have any figures to help meself with.


Care to draw me a rough sketch of where I should place the darker colors for the shading?

Oh, alright then. When does she become permanently added to my team though? I'm now at the level where both Shiki's and Touko fight off a few enemies.

She gets added to your group after your last fight against her, which, if I remember correctly, is the fight against Nanaya.

Help! I can't shade for [parasitic bomb]! (Original-sized ultra-huge vector PSD provided in link, if anyone's interested in helping. Quickie, I'm looking at you.) (EDIT: Link deleted!)

Yes. Tohno should strike the killing attack to Sacchin in at least two of the three battles you fight against her. Once she's unlocked, you can use her permanently, and as far as I'm informed, she also becomes available in the opposite route (same happens to Mech Hisui and the other route), so you'd basically need two whole playthroughs to have both secret characters available in a single game.

I haven't played SRW, but unless I'm wrong, seeing as Amuro happens to be a major star of the Gundam universe, he's probably a very good player, or at least a decent unit. The maids, being supporting characters, barely have any attack power, usually needing someone else to bring enemy units down to their knees before the maids can dispatch them.

Some minor corrections in lines here and there, and I decided on the coloring palette for the next phase:

Quickie, get your artistic ass down here pronto -- I need advice on shading this bad boy. I can't shade for [parasitic bomb].

Yeah, that's what I was referring to when I said I'd rather play it translated.

Thanks, but it'd be nice if someone had told me I had to defeat Sacchin twice with Shiki so she'd join my party, BEFORE the factory stage. That way, I wouldn't be having to tail her all around the damn RoSHIaKI stage. >_>

Try getting Mecha Hisui. The maids need to have an added total of at least 45 kills for it.

That's really interesting actually.  You've got my attention.  Do tell of this new digital inking process. 

Basically, I'm just tracing over the lines with the Pen tool with the regular Paths setting, and once I trace over an amount of lines, I stroke them on a new layer with a light, thin brush to see how it's coming along. Has the little disadvantage that I have to clear the layer once I check how everything's going, because stroking again over it makes the lines darker (and I want to keep everything consistent), but so far has proven itself to be quite a nice way to ink.


If you want, once I'm done I can give you a copy of the PSD, so you can see how I did it.

You make it sound like I follow BMW info.

You don't? Your loss. Epic game, really.

I only JUST got into the game. |:

Read above.

And I'd also rather play it translated.

It's been fully translated for a while, except for the new content introduced in the Perfect Edition patch which Aro gave up on for the time being waiting for Werk to fix all the game-crashing snafus they left in the game.

Also, woo, RoSHIaKI stage, all Masteries so far. D:

Whoa, nice going.

Shiki uses a Phoenix Down!

Thread is revived with 50% more badass!

So I got this pic as a gift from my best friend from jap class. She knows how much I like Phoenix, so she made this inspired by the Prince's pose in this promotional picture from Prince of Persia: Warrior Within (which, aside from the promo pics and the über-hotness that is Kaileena, was a rather forgettable game riddled with glitches and lockups).

(click to show/hide)

And since I liked the goddamn pic so much, I decided to color it digitally, and have been toying with a new line art cleanup technique I thought of today, with rather surprisingly good results. It's gonna take some fine-tuning in some places, but nothing too extremely hard. Quickie, remind me to tell you of this one and get your opinion on it.

I DID make a point of digitally fixing some small details though, such as the squiggly ends of Nick's eyebrows.

I'd also like to inform you that TMNT: TF had a kickass soundtrack.

I wish I had it...

THAT I'm fully willing to concede -- the music was frikken awesome. The game itself, not so much.

Oh, isn't that called the Wallflower or some [parasitic bomb] in the dub? Where the girl is all gothic and pulls out random chainsaws when she finally flips?

The very same.

...We sure we're talking about the same version, Tohno-kun?

Unless the game you're referring to is NOT

this one

, then YES, we're talking about the same game.

Finally finished RuroKen. It was awesome, but I'm tired of manga for today after reading so much, so I'll start something else tomorrow x_x

You hadn't read RuroKen yet? Jesus, and I thought you, as a good fellow latino, were educated in classic manga and anime...

I owned it and played it.




Absolutely HATED it. The fight system was wonky and unbalanced as NOTHING I'd ever seen before.

Leonardo leads, Donatello does machines.

Raphael is cool, but rude; and Michaelangelo is a party dude.


Also, I agree with that quote, Jerry. It is single-handedly one of the most fantastic shots ever.

I think I'd rather actually BEAT the game before even trying Perfect Edition, since that's still being waited on too.

Chapter 13 complete, 13 Battle Masteries, Excalibur, [tornado fang] yeah.

Dude, Perfect Edition is merely a content patch that inserts new stuff (2 characters, at least one level, according to my info) into the game, not a completely new game. What rock have you been hiding under lately regarding this game?

It was pretty damn funny. The Path To Becoming A Lady shorts were the funniest [parasitic bomb] I watched that season.
