...EA. Really? Where did your mum obtain this information

To be perfectly honest, not sure--she may have heard it from Dad--which is why I said not to quote me on it.

But it would explain a lot...

Wouldnt put too much stock in it. I remember a few years ago it was also rumored that Capcom was going to trade Mega Man for Splinter Cell.

I believe that was just a GameInformer April Fools' joke.

I imagined this. My first thought wasn't "I have nothing left to live for" as I have seen many people say.
It wasn't "[tornado fang] Capcom rahrahrahrahrahrah"
Nor "I'm going to burn that [tornado fang]ing company building to the ground!!!!!111ONE"

Or any of the other bullshit I keep seeing.

You know what it was?

"Aw well. [parasitic bomb] happens."

Oh.

Well, I just hoped that eventually, you might learn how to empathize. But no, you're going to keep sneering at us for being justifiably angry. For all these comparisons to the Sonic fandom and whatnot, at least SEGA and others didn't pull this kind of dick move.


Also--DO NOT quote me on this, but according to Mom, EA has or is going to buy out Capcom. (Keep in mind, they already bought Pop Cap) If it's true, then this may have been a factor in MML3's cancellation...and we may owe Capcom an apology. Oops.

This is why no one takes the Mega Man fanbase seriously. 'Cause you're all 12 and dumb as [parasitic bomb].

Imagine this:

You work hard on something. You're supporting it the entire time, even when its status is dubious. The higher=ups constantly assure you it's going to be fine.

Then all your hard work and hope was for nothing, because it was unceremoniously canned, and no one received any compensation whatsoever. They didn't even tell you why it was dropped, beyond some vague excuse.

That's us, and likely the devteam as well.

Just sayin'.

Hey remember that other game people were waiting 14 years for? Remember how it turned out to be terrible in every possible way?

But at least it defied the odds and CAME OUT! ;_;

After a while, the RAGE from all this will die down. Then Crapcom will announce an "ALL NEW 8-BIT MM11", and fans will eat it up as always without a thought. It's a cycle, if y'all haven't noticed.

I may have a horrible memory, but I doubt that I'll forget MML3.

At this point, it'd be a miracle if we ever saw MM11. I'd like to think that if it did happen, we would support it in order to show that we don't want it going the way of MMU and MML3, not because we have the collective memory of a goldfish.

But, if Capcom is apparently so willing to flip off any fanbase of theirs that isn't large enough...

But after the departure of Keiji, it was almost obvious this project would go dead, after we saw what happened to Universe.

They say it has nothing to do with him leaving, but I have a very hard time believing that.

Oh well I think we all saw this coming.

We did, but most of us were hoping to every known benevolent deity that MML3 would survive.

Didn't even release the Prototype Edition to see if it would print money. [tornado fang]ing hell.

Huh. :/

First of three commissions from ~ElecRockin; his guy, Rockin, flirting with armourless Splashy (who is blatantly wearing her clothes from that failed tribute entry).

Second comm. from ~ElecRockin; now he offers to give Tifa some lotion; Tifa isn't yet sure if want. Also, sideboob. :B

Last comm. from ~ElecRockin. Rockin starts powering up, perhaps in order to electrically bitchslap some idiot.

edit:

OK, one more. ~ElecRockin asked me to continue the Rockin/Tifa scene--this was all I could think of. :/ Originally she was going to put it on him, but among other things, I couldn't get her face right.

edit2:

KH1-era Rock and Roll.
More Riku/Rock schtuff.

I'd like to think that pain serves the same purpose for robots as it does everyone else ("hey dumbass, you put your hand on a hot stove, take it off").

So I FINALLY watched some MLP:FiM episodes (the first and second, specifically). I imagine this is how Rock and Fluttershy's meeting went.

Also, Rock's mane now looks more like, well, a mane.

Anyone remember this guy? You know, the one I only drew once? He's back, along with his hammer. Would've coloured this if I felt like it. :/

"Others" being Megabunny and Ran-fox (his mate, presumably; of course, being Proto, they have no kids).

I can't draw foxes. :/

OK. ('twas just trying to emulating the manga covers' colouring, not the character style itself)

ry to "come at" these girls (durr hurr) and you're going home without a limb. Two, if you persist.

Look upon her, ye who think your KH character should start off with a variant of the Ultima keyblade for no reason, and despair.

And, uh, ignore the different chain lengths.

Yay for SAI sketches that go nowhere.

Backstory: Proto has some really powerful sedatives/painkillers (made by Wily; Proto didn't take any until he was sure they weren't booby-trapped) that he doesn't really take anymore. Rock got injured offscreen, and someone saw Proto's meds and thought "Robot painkillers? Robot who's in lots and lots of pain? BRILLIANT!"

Except it wasn't, 'cuz Rock is a lightweight. Now Proto's keeping an eye on him, and really wishing he'd hidden those things better (they could've just shut off Rock's pain receptors until repairs were finished).

I'm honestly not sure what separates the winners from the losers here (well, mine was comparatively total crap), apart from the obvious "the winners got in the book". :/

I need to play Dissidia again...

I believe I drew this before.

Poor Capcom-Rock is all nervous; Samus must be somewhere in the background with a rocket launcher. D:

Actually, no you are not, Sora. Turn back. TURN BAAAACK

Tried emulating the colouring style for the PMMM manga covers; didn't work. :/ Also, still thinking about how the KH and PMMM universes would work together. And this is obviously the first time I've ever drawn Madoka.

UESS WHO FIGURED OUT HOW TO TURN OFF THE ACCURSED CAMERA FLASH?

I had taken something similar to this earlier, in a different location, but my HD died before I could do anything with that. So I gave Sora the Soul Eater again, took him downstairs after getting kicked out of my parents' room (location of the original shot), and went into Dad's downstairs office.

The way the shadows fell on Sora's face was perfect, but my camera flash kept messing that up. Turns out all you have to do is press a single, very obvious button. DUURRRRR.


Anyway--Sora has the Soul Eater. An AU wherein Riku was the one to receive the Kingdom Key?

COMMISSIONS ARE STILL OPEN BY THE WAY /obnoxious

Oh, and some FA links. (All of which are worksafe)

Anthro fruit flies.
Oh hey there, Protocat.
TMNT doujin-related.
It's a fox!
Pony-photo.
Speaking of which...

Posted on: July 07, 2011, 08:42:36 PM

I forgot to submit this. :/

One night I decided to draw the Light siblings in clothes they normally wouldn't wear for whatever reason. Rock and Roll got stuck with Goth-y stuff, while Proto's wearing bright colours (fanon has decided that he wouldn't like that, anyway).

Maybe Rock's just annoyed because his shirt exposes his shoulders and stinks of mothballs. :/

I'd been batting around ideas for "MMRS 2.0"--essentially, a semi-combination of RS and game continuities, while still being distinctly its own thing (read: still pisses off the purists). A lot of the work's on a sketchpad page that I need to finish/scan.

These pics were drawn when I wasn't feeling so great, mentally (read: my HD had crapped out and Mom was still trying to get it read). Rock's supposed to have thinner gauntlets (like Roll's), for example.

In this continuity, Rock and Roll are a bit younger (maybe Rock's about 18-19), and while they fight together like in MMRS, Roll has armour like her brother's. Hell, she has the same bangs as him. Rock, despite going out more and having more human contact, is incredibly socially awkward (whereas I see RS-Rock as simply keeping to himself when out of armour), though his friends are trying to help him out of this. They are, of course, older than him and treat him like the group uke most of the time.

Hopefully, if I ever get this developed, I'll be able to do something with it.

Early-morning farting around in SAI.

Good thing I wasn't planning on seeing TF3 anyway (like I didn't see the first two). And you know, any movie that shoves some poor woman's ass directly into the camera five or so minutes in, without the slightest hint of "context will ruin this", and basically tells the audience "This movie was written by straight males, for straight males, and in such a way that most lesbians won't like it" (lesbian porn written by lesbians for lesbians is more sane, right? Right?) isn't getting my money. (Watched/listened to a video of Spoony and Brad discussing it on TGWTG)

Also will never understand the insistence that these human characters need to be shoehorned into these TF movies, as if the Transformers (who presumably have personalities, desires, and other human things) are totally unrelatable because they're made of metal.

And the lack of plot? If I wanna watch something totally without plot, I'll go rewatch The Mind's Eye (early 90s compilation of CG videos).

I cant answer that. I can guess that these are the same idiots who (may have) insisted that paying for stuff with real money in MMORPGs and DRM wouldn't become a major thing, either. Either they don't know a red flag when they see one, or they're in denial.

Five years for streaming too many videos with copyrighted stuff in it. BULL-[tornado fang]ing-[parasitic bomb].

I dunno how they'll enforce this, either, but still. I know that at least one of my sisters has a YouTube account--I'd hate for her to get thrown in the slammer for five years because ten or more of her videos had copyrighted stuff in it, no matter how briefly.

Jesus, when will the old media just take some time to learn about new media instead of condemning everyone who uses it?
