Toys, guns, and tomatoes.  A good smuggler needs a diverse portfolio.

Heh, it's not fun to be flogged by geese.  Particularly those really big Chinese geese.

Most of my height is in my legs, as I have a short torso.

Nice!  How much did he cost?  Did you pose him in embarrassing positions yet?  Those figures are great for stop-motion.  EVA-4 has gotten alotta use in our animated shorts.

Quick tip on belt lines: The butt will usually make the back of the pants sit higher on the hips than the front, even if just slightly.

General / Re: Why does everyone hate MMKB so much?

« on: March 29, 2010, 10:13:18 AM »

Honestly, it's one of the best resources I've seen since Planet Megaman died awhile back.  Why, therefore, does everyone hate it with a passion comparable to those who hate Twilight?

I don't hate MMKB.  However, I do see areas that need improvement.  The few times I've gone there, I corrected grammar and spelling.  Poor sentence structure runs rampant there.  Some articles also lack links to relevant related articles.  There is also fanon, according to others, and most articles that I've seen lack citations.  The categorization seems a bit lax, and the article format could be much better.  The usage of present tense in articles is also a bit informal.  The prose is also chock full of POV.  I mean, just because one user thinks that Blaze Heatnix is "extremely difficult" doesn't mean everyone else will.

But, as was said in the other topic, to which I am going to merge this afterward, not every wiki can be Wookieepedia.

Though, taking a page or two from our Manual of Style certainly would help.  It just takes people who are willing to put in the hard work to make sure that everything is sourced, spelled properly, and is free of fanon.  Sadly, it seems that the MMKB just isn't willing to do that.

Hm, totally forgot about this one.  For whatever reason, I thought that the image of a gangsta Gand was funny as hell and had to draw it.



Yeah.  That's all I got for now.  Other stuff is under wraps.

My given name means "from Brittany" (an area of France), and my nickname means "strong," "brave," or "liberator of Sweden" (something like that).

Yes, I rename all characters in RPGs. Shut up.

Nothing wrong with renaming characters.  Iggy, Stinky, and Fozzy are far better names than what the game provides!

The bottom-right one's not too bad either, though his hair is a bit low on his head.  Giving him a bit more forehead and a higher crown should fix that.

And inks are pretty cheap.  Sharpie pens should work just fine.  I used to use fine-point roller balls when Pigma Microns weren't available.

Certainly stylized.  Your linework's pretty tight and consistent, have you tried inking your work?   And feel free to make an art topic in the Fan Creations forum, stuff posted there doesn't hafta be Megaman-related.

The colouring is indeed very nice.  Though, I must agree with the eyes...  They're kinda creepy...  Though, that I think is more due to the fact that she is looking directly at the camera and staring straight into the viewer's soul.
