I wonder if Biggs and Wedge will be in FF7AC. =3

Some of the charas' facial rendering seem inconsistent, from what you see in the trailers. Tifa for example, looks really good to me when she looks up from her land/crouch against the wall during her Loz fight, but not any other time; her face is different. I had really hated Cloud's face when they first released images, but during the trailer, it's not as bad, depending on which scenes I'm looking at. I think his best frame is the scene where he and Kadaj are surrounded by the crowd of children and Kadaj has his sword pointed down at Cloud's face. He looks pretty good when he's launching up to meet Bahamut too. Kadaj's face seems to be the most unchanging so far, considering his range of scenes.

Look! I made kitty Aya. ^.^

I'd been waiting for those ears for so long~
Now to get the drooping cat for Kaede...
But I still can't decide if I want to give up the gears necessary to make Ears of the Devil. I <3 my evil wing. D:

Oh yeah, lol:


Irvine and Youji (monk-to-be)! XD
(Aya was a thief originally, but I hadn't enjoyed playing assassin nor liked the outfit, so I had remade Aya to a hunter instead =P)


Monday, December 13, 2004 07:13 a.m.

I was looking at the screens they have at adventchildren.net. A good many of them are of the charas talking on the phone. I'm beginning to wonder if the movie might actually just be giant cell phone commercial, rofl. I actually wouldn't put it past Square-Enix to do something like that either, now.

Wahah, I just registered a domain name FF7AC related. Preemptive-obsession strike. Even worse than what happened with Itachi. >XD I just don't want the same thing to happen all the time, where I am always too late, be it an email, domain, online game handle, etc. I wanted uchiha.net soooo much. T_T
So, what is it? Secret. ;)


FF7AC, new trailer

Monday, December 13, 2004 05:07 a.m.

http://www.square-enix.co.jp/dvd/ff7ac/

When the site's flash finished loading and the music started playing, I was instantly sent back. A huge wave of nostalgia swept over me. I haven't heard it in years. And I felt so sad. That emotion always seems to be constant whenever I feel nostalgic about anything....

And then I unhappily, despairingly wonder why Final Fantasy has to suck now. I wish things could go back to the weird, ugly polygonal figures again. Or even the old 2D pixel sprites.

And OMG, the Shinra theme! ToT. Send me back! Send me back!!! Back in time! Pleeeease. ::sobs::
They even made Shinra a website. T_T

I like Tifa's look more in this. She looks more mature, features sharper and not so much the Jpop idol face and dress I had expected and that tends to run rampant in FF now. (edit: okay, nvm. I just watched the third trailer, and her face isn't as improved as I'd thought, just a tiny bit better. Her voice ain't too fabulous either. At least her outfit is more practical now.... but that tarded ribbon around her arm? Wth, Rinoa?)

Omg, the trailers....  ::mesmerized::.
I <3 One Winged Angel. ::makes out with it:: (the music piece, that is... though either works)

Those action sequences are beeeautiful. This movie will simply make it even more apparent how Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within was such a joke. (Did I ever mention that I actually fell asleep while watching that? I've only ever did that in a movie theatre *once* and it was because it was 2am and I lacked sleep)

And the way the character, Kadaj, goes on about "Kaa-san" can't help but bring Gaara to mind, lol. Yazoo is pretty. ^.^ He hasn't said much of anything yet either, which is always a plus. (But I get the feeling he's pretty sado-psycho-evil anyway)

And that guy sitting with the sheet draped over him is so totally Rufus. White suit, injured and on the dark side? Hell yeah, it's him.

I'm also happy to see all the previews still retain their cool points for the gray, darker, dreary setting. It gives me hope they won't entirely fuk it up.

(YEAH! Vincent! And Red XIII! ^ ^ I love you aallll ToT Too bad Tseng's still kicked the bucket)

Once upon a time, I was very into the FF7 fandom. One of my first major fandoms, in fact. The best fiction. This was all before I endeavored to create my own site and post art. It shows in my dj collection, but not so much on my site =P. One of my favorite circles is Be Happy/K.Haruka.

I'm all into this old favorite FF music video again. Final Fantasy Cubed. Awesome song, and the music goes great with the well done amv. =) Not a big download, very much worth it. (lyric translation at senshigakuen)

How will I sleep now?


Friday, December 10, 2004 06:47 a.m.

You know, for a while now, I've been thinking of permanently moving my blog to an oekaki bbs instead. I like the idea of having a convenient tool for including a lil doodle to go along with whatever post, idea or mood I'm in. I might not be as pressured to make everything look good or take it seriously and it would be practice. The only downside is the limit they have on account inactivity. I've already lost one personal oebi due to that XP. Meh, maybe when I finally get a tablet. Drawing with mouse really sucks, I'm not a big oekaki fan. (though drawing cute lil Sasuke's are fun)

Sasuke.... Sasukeeeeeehhhh.... >.<


Tuesday, December 7, 2004 10:52 p.m.

What's this...? Do I sense a stir of activity....?

::burp::


PMS rant Part I (continued)

Tuesday, August 24, 2004 06:08 a.m.

I wanted to mention that what I ranted about a few days ago goes the same for a situation where it's the other way around. Someone shows you a picture they drew, and you think it's no good, there's no reason to speak only harsh criticisms for the supposed pure purpose of being honest(*scoff*please), and basically only making them feel like crap. Again, how can you use your own standard on art and believe others should naturally accept it as their own? For art especially. It's ridiculous.

I recall once how I had read in a fan forum this girl completely tear into another's fan-sketch as if it was supposed to be her fucking college art thesis or some shit. I mean wtf. This is just someone who's sharing with a group a sketched idea she did for fun of something she enjoyed and she's suddenly being bashed over every little thing that didn't meet this particular critic's standards. Told how she'll never be a 'real' artist this way, and so on, and a bunch of other snotty crap that I sincerely doubt the artist was even seeking input for. Um, I'm sorry, or had I missed the part where she said she was looking to showcase her portfolio at a new gallery opening? And certainly not this critic's gallery. I mean, lighten the fuck up, she was just sharing the pic for mutual enjoyment. The critic even had the gall to say she wasn't trying to be mean when she labeled the picture "crap." Yes, quoted. Summed it up with that word, in fact. Most of her criticisms were purely personal preference and opinion anyway. Why does the artist have to draw the way she felt it should look for it to be worth anything? There's such a thing called style in art and just about every other creative field out there, and just because she didn't like it doesn't mean it's wrong nor is it crap. Not to mention, the critic not even commenting at all on the subject/idea of the sketch, which was really the whole fucking point of sharing it and the fan-forum. Not to hear this girl preach her snotty opinion on its technical merit.

If she was really so knowledgeable and wanted to be all high-nosed and talk 'Art', maybe she should have been able to consider the sketch as something that might actually be going for a style other than Realism, which was really what all her criticisms and "guidelines" were based around only. Which is almost so absurd I could laugh, considering it was an anime-related forum she was preaching in. Maybe she's the one that ought to think twice and go get herself some schooling.

I mean, I understand constructive criticism (which I still don't really believe the artist was seeking, tech-wise), but this was way out of line and far from constructive, once again, given without any consideration of what the particular artist's own goals and intentions actually were, but only concern for her own and what she thought. How the hell is that helpful? When you don't even give thought to what the artist themself was striving for?

And after being told things like that in such a way, I'd wonder if the artist would even ever want to pick up a pencil to draw again, let alone bother to try and improve(granted if that was even her initial desire).

I guess I didn't really have to rant about this. I mean, you'd think these kinds of things would be obvious now with how far art has gone and how different it can be these days and it shouldn't have to be explained. It's also pretty apparent where the line ought to be drawn in criticism and generally, people are either nice and well-mannered and note that line or those that are not, well, won't. But still there are those people who are usually okay, but will still sometimes shove their heads so far up their own asses, they lose consideration for all other things while voicing their opinion. And in the case of the mentioned example, actually believe they are being beneficial. And yeah, again, this goes for both rants and situations.

Pointless rant really. Maybe just getting the angry feelings off my chest from that particular memory. I'm so touchy about art. Gee, could you tell? But most likely just me more than making up for the lack of posting complaints here the past weeks.

I wonder, if anyone (may) comes here and then makes the same complaints about me and what I say. Heh, most likely. I'll never argue that it's all my own personal opinion, likes/dislikes though. I could shut up, but this is a blog and there'd be nothing in here. And really, none of you had to be here. Why you here anyway? Waiting for a site update? LOL, believe me, I'm hoping for the same from myself. I've become an ultra-lazy ass.


PMS rant Part II

Thursday, August 19, 2004 04:36 a.m.

Why is it that almost all "High School-AU" Seifer/Squall fics I've come across have Squall as the poor, unpopular picked on kid? Last I checked, that role is usually reserved for a completely different type of character. Why isn't Squall written as the cool, capable, but unsocial loner that, well uh, he is in the game? Why mess with it? Really, Garden is hardly much of a stretch from high school anyway. They couldn't have asked for an easier setting/chara transition. How the hell do they get the 'pathetic Jock-punching bag' role for Squall? It's so fucking stupid and annoying to me. Squall and Seifer are both very capable students and their abilities & achievements, as well as being each others' equals/competition, are an integral part of their personalities and who they are. If you didn't freaking like it, then why the hell are you using them in the story, is what I'm wondering. If you change Squall's chara so drastically, wtf is the point. If you like that kind of dynamic, use Zell, as even he would be the better candidate. But even he wouldn't be as pathetic as I see some of these HS Squalls done. He'd be better as the picked on fellow sports team member or something.

And I never really liked the 'rich boy' background Seifer is often given. I don't find it quite "true" to Seifer's character, as his attitude seemed built from adversity, not privilege. He loses that 'crass' edge, his toughness less authentic. I see more of the "tough jock/bully from the rough home." What's the point of the money really? So he can have a nice car? He can get something like that without having to be wealthy. He doesn't need money to set himself up in a position to antagonize Squall. Sounds more like a frivolous device for a teen girl's ideal love story for herself (*cough*Rinoa*cough*) than for characters like Squall and Seifer.

If someone had to be rich, I think Squall would make the better candidate, anyway. More easily workable to have Squall's personality still turn out the way it did. Not to mention he was even given a wealthy father in-game.

"Hey LG, why don't *you* write the fic you want then?"

. . . hell no.


What REALLY pisses me off...

Monday, August 16, 2004 05:02 a.m.

...is when I draw something I am extremely unhappy with or just simply unhappy with the way I draw and a friend attempts to console/disagree with me by telling me how "It's not bad at all, you're just being over critical; I wish I could draw something like that. I don't know what you're complaining about; You know how many people wished they could draw like that," etc etc and all that load of CRAP. Don't TALK to me as if I'm "those people," some random Joe looking to amuse themself or like this is my first time trying. This is after months, years of trying to get better, working to improve on those weak points I have. And then to have someone who has done nothing of the same berate me on my negative attitude? How the FUCK can you use your own standard and believe I should accept it as my own? That's just completely thoughtless and it gets me SO angry. Mainly because I have to hear it after all that fustration that's built up from failing yet again at making any progress. It - doesn't - help. And do not expect me to appreciate the intention because it's as if they gave no effort in even trying to understand my circumstance and why I'm upset, but just opening their mouth to tell me I'm wrong. This isn't some picture for a fucking book report. This is something that's supposed to reflect my skill, measure my progress, a pay off for my efforts. Did THEY spend year after year of their life working to draw proper perspectives and proportions or trying to major in art? No, so of fucking course they'd be satisfied with what I did. Being given five bucks would make most people happy here, but would they be so happy with it after having worked a 12 hour shift and paid that? Hell NO. Something to consider before saying empty shit like that to me.

I draw to please myself more than others. I'm not against encouragement, but if you're trying to help, you could give advice. Unless you're a serious artist, don't tell me I ought to be satisfied with what you'd be for yourself. Of course an opinion on whether you like it or not isn't unwelcome, it's necessary to have another's impression, but don't freaking tell me I am being unappreciative of my work.

OKAY? Yeah, I'm pissed from fucking up everything I put on paper, very old news. What's stupid is that no one even saw what I did tonight, I just imagined what so-and-so would say if they did see it and the thoughts alone just sent my already immense fustration through the roof.

Rant over.

Until the next butthead says the completely wrong thing. (Yeah guys, I'm talking to YOU. You know who you are.)


Monday, August 2, 2004 04:45 p.m.

<3 * double HEART* <3 !!!
Check out the alternate version on the index page too~

There needs to be a series dedicated to just these three. Seriously.


Sunday, July 25, 2004 03:20 a.m.

Omg... <3 *HEART* <3 !!!

(oh, main site ~> here. *Really* nice stuff)

Yes, I am Uchiha obsessed.


Sunday, July 25, 2004 01:12 a.m.

Sasuke B-day pic by Kasumi. Aaww... =3 I really like Sasuke's expression there.

And this pic, I love very much as well. Mah, I love all her works.

L'arc en ciel's gonna be at Otakon o_O. I am impressed. Good thing I'm not a fan, or I'd actually have to go. Well, regardless, would have been interesting just to see them.

I heard during Gackt's birthday concert, there were video clips of him in a school girl's uniform as well as a nurse's uniform. o_o What the hell...
Too bad the pic I saw of the school uniform was so blurry.


The new Naruto OP

Wednesday, May 12, 2004 11:18 p.m.

I'm not sure I like the new opening theme. When I first saw it, it reminded me of Saiyuki OPs. It was just... I dunno. Had a similar girlish-ness to it? Meant to appeal to girls, that is. Or well, just fans in general. The art is nice and all, but it's pretty cheap. Not much animation at all, just panning of poses. I think my friend was right when he had said it had a generic fan-ness to it. A lot more shallow, compared to the previous OPs I guess. Not a terrible OP, but not an OP of a "good" series. It doesn't really fit.
Mmmm, commercialism...

And again I wonder, why is Sakura a ninja...? And Naruto really shouldn't be in this series...

LOL, my friend had said it's like she should be the girl who pours tea while her teammates fight in a life or death battle.


siiigh

Wednesday, April 14, 2004 06:59 a.m.

Some intense reading of some intense fic has given me some emotional inspiration (yes, just emotional, don't know how far it'll get me) to keep going with my Youji/Aya pics. At the very least, the pursuit of some new pics. And something that'll probably look very different from my old stuff since it's been so long and I really do need to start again with something fresh, new. Though this feeling will very well only set me up for more frustration as I'll fail to draw and capture what I had wanted... ugh. I get so angry. Not for the picture but just feeling like I'm not getting anywhere in general. Nothing improves. If anything, I'm getting worse. I think about just giving it up all together so often that for the better part of the past year, I thought I pretty much had.

The thought of picking up a pencil fills me with a lot dread sometimes. Afraid of just proving my fear over and over.

Naruto has been a bit of help though. New series, new characters, new style. Most of the characters are kids to boot, so it really is something different from what I've been stuck/slumped on. It's just easier to give it a different approach, a different standard. I'd been able to do the occasional doodle and sketch for that... Maybe I'll eventually post a few of them on the site. But for some reason the thought of doing so made me feel somewhat guilty. Like it was some sort of betrayal. But it's not as if I don't already have art from other series up. I can't really explain or understand it myself.

A lot of my favorite Naruto sites are being taken over by other series. Some entirely replaced even. Damn you, Full Metal Alchemist! >_< Damn you!

I'm not letting myself watch that... judging from the character the Sasuke fansites are being replaced with, I'd only have a new obsession on my hands. And I just can't handle that.

And speaking of newer obsessions, I recently got my hands on a few volumes of Senjou Yatai's "Tsubaki" dj series. Centered on Itachi, Sasuke and Kakashi (In the words of SSX Zoe, "Does it get any better?!"). It's their take on why and how the Uchiha massacre happened. And it's just so freaking good, even without understanding most of the text. Especially the art by Yamato. I mean, it's *beautiful*. I still can't get over the cover of volume 5. I love her Itachi. And Sasuke. Agh. I had accidentally cracked the spine of that precious volume and I'm really hurting...


trickeeh~

Wednesday, April 7, 2004 06:40 a.m.

I've been playing SSX Tricky for the Gamecube and it's damn addictive. I've been mainly sticking with Zoe, but I recently tried out Brodi (who's so unexpectedly corny/funny) and only just tried Kaori. Holy. Crap. Uh... no comment. But her reactions toward Psymon are daaamn funny. XD

So far personality/image-wise, I like Elise least. Predictable that her enemy would be Marisol, too.

I still can't get gold for the Showoff event in the later courses though. ><

SSX 3 must be awesome.

trickeyeh~


iPod

Friday, April 2, 2004 01:37 a.m.

I received an iPod mini for my bday. It was a super surprise. I've never really thought much of an ipod nor ever saw what made it so popular or better than the other stuff available, other than the millions spent on promotion for it. I guess a mini is nice though since it's smaller and lighter. And while I'm truly touched and really appreciate the gift, I can't help but be irritated at why everything iPod has to be white. White wires, white adapters. Geez, there are *reasons* wires and such are made black. But seems they dismissed them all just to look special and unique like pop teen trends. Well after the surfaces get marked up and streaked with dirt, it won't be lookin so "cute 'n pretty" anymore. Excuse me while I scoff. ::scoffs::

But hey, least while I stroll down the street, the trailing line of eyecatching white will alert any around me how hip and trendy I am with my shiny ipod. That is until I'm mugged like a fucking moron.

But I guess this all works out for the company, with more orders for replacements.


more Naruto...

Sunday, March 28, 2004 05:24 a.m.

While watching ep 73, I had been thinking how retarded it was that for the last few episodes all Sakura and Naruto have been doing is jumping through trees. But then I realized I prefer it this way. Seems everything's been SO freaking good without them. And I really don't want them catching up to Sasuke and butting in on the confrontation. Or story in general, lol. Like they'll totally ruin the atmosphere of everything going on, breaking the spell.

....What are they even doing in this show?

P: HAHHA
P: that's a damn good question

Why's it even called Naruto? LOL, it's so freaking awesome without him. And for over 60 episodes he hasn't even been the catalyst for *anything*. And my (unbiased) friend admitted to me it actually gets *less* interesting once he is.

Okay, the next episode up is 74. I almost wet my pants just seeing the preview.


Shiiiieett...

Tuesday, March 23, 2004 02:50 a.m.

I had stopped watching Naruto at 69 since it seemed the slight lull after the Gaara/Sasuke match was a good place to stop and let a few episodes accumulate to watch all at once. But omg. Having nothing to do, I just watched up to Naruto 71 finally. Omg. Wow.... WOW. WOW.

I haven't gotten 72 yet, dammit. I'm a fool. 40mb to go. shiiiieettt. How can this show be so good. I am soo afraid of Orochimaru now. And I can't wait to see those flashbacks. Shiiiiiietttt.

And kuro-Sasuke's look just rocks so bad. Gaaahh, I need more.

I am NOT going to read ahead in the manga... NOT. It will make the anime boring. Must be strong.

...ITACHI! o (•_•) o

Btw, Naruto OST2 sucks monkey butt. They skipped all the good bgm, but stuck in all the lame stuff. Raikiri is good tho (of cooourse). And Orochi Sentou sounds like Castlevania. But I'll give it a plus for being more Sasuke-oriented.


Saturday, March 6, 2004 11:59 p.m.

Look <-- Hahaha, I love this picture! So cute, their expressions so funny, freaking perfect.

Is guest art from Maxim's DEEP FOREST.


Happy belated V-day~

Monday, February 16, 2004 09:33 p.m.

Hahaha this is great: Valentine's Day in Konoha

Love them all. All very close to the mark. Practically thoughts right outta my own head!

Hmm, I also did a pic for V-day. Though it's Sendoh x Rukawa, not YxA, since it was also Sendoh's birthday. Too lazy to update on my site so, tada~

I've been spending the whole last week just cleaning. And omfg, I have so much shit. Stuff I didn't even know I had. Some were really good finds, some not so good. I have this great Minami Ozaki book and didn't even remember. o_O; It's something I prolly would have ended up buying again, if I saw it for sale XP. I sure have a lot of double copies of things. I also found, believe it or not, a Ken/Aya sketch. Maifukkingod shoot me. I would read/watch anything yaoi back then.

And I've still more to go though! Uuuugghhh.... I need a digicam. It would make selling this junk so much easier...


Saturday, February 7, 2004 12:06 a.m.

Last night I had a dream. It was a strange setting. Some kind of art gallery/studio or loft, full of familiar and unfamiliar people. All I remember was that Gackt was in it, wasn't friendly to me at first, but later asked me to play a video game. Rukawa was also there and had a twin.

Now that's a dream.
