SOUL CALIBUR V CREATION

Yep, no new artwork yet...the artwork i am curretnly working is hellish literally xDDD soo i need a few more days. But while its ready, i leave some updates for my character creation in Soul Calibus V




First a little update on Mizuki. I didnt want her to look too outdated, but since shes a japanese Oni, a black kimono was the best way to make her looks elegant and faithful to her original design. Soo far Alex Gates didnt change at all (previus post) hes my most fav design x3




Akuma Otoko.....yes, i am soo good for names >_<...this is my second favorite design!!!! I love everythign on this guy and he uses Mitsurugis style soo hes the character i use the most D:




Zero. I did create this guy in SC III, IV and Broken Destiny. He has been always on my Calibur games xDDD




My werewolf character, Jason!!!!! Since its imposible to give him modern clothing i turn him into a roman soldier xDDD




Jack Rider. Just playing around with designs




Apolo




Persefone




Fiona




Cleo




Aya Brea from Parasite Eve




Melisa Pearce/Eve from Parasite Eve




Jecht from Final Fantasy X




Kilik...the true Kilik...not the mimic character <_<




Rock from the old Soul Calibur games

Even with all this options i feel the game is falling short in term of items...theres soo many items missing from SC IV...i wasnt able to reproduce any of my designs of IV and Broken Destiny o_o

Then again, SC V feels short in more parts than the creation xD

ALEX GATES & MIZUKI NORI

I finally played around with the character creation thingy from Soul Calibur V. I have to say, the level of custimization its pretty awesome!!!! Add tattos, paterns, change colors, change size, height, color in the eyes....but i cant seem to find descent clothing >_<

While all the colors and patterns can be changed, the clothing menu is kinda...hard to work xD half the stuff looks generic and boring, the other half looks soo silly. I ant find some good looking shirts...or a vest...not even a good looking coat >_<

I am tempted to leave my characters nude(and not for the eye candy...) or maybe i need to level up to the max to unlock the really awesome items for the game!!!

Here i leave pictures of Alex Gates, who turned out to look quite amazing o_o but the clothes...and also Mizuki Nori, one of his companions (who most of you still dont meet xD)






Once i update this designs or come up with new ones (Jason deffinetly xD), ill post pictures.

TRASCENDING THE TALE OF SOULS AND SWORDS

This last days i been replaying a lot the Soul Calibur series with the excitment of SC V coming tomorrow!! I must say, while it seems it dosnt have as many games as other series, the evolution of the series have been quite shocking from the last generation to the corrent one o_o

Sadly, i cant say anything about Soul Blade....i never played that one and is soo expensive already ;_; but it sure had a badass opening xDDDDD



Soul Calibur leave me a little behind at first. I didnt played it in the original release date but i bought it later thanks to someone special obsession with the game xDDDD even with the old graphics, the game works surprisngly good and it have HWANG D:!!!!



Soul Calibur II now thats feel nostalgic...i remember how crazy went people about it (and the first one as well). I get the Gamecube version of the game just because back then i didnt have too many GC games (and i still only have a few >_>) and i had soo much fun playing with my sister and traveling in the Weapons Master mode with Talim xDDD I get all the weapons very fast even if i didnt use them at all



Soul Calibur III had some pretty odd new characters, but i was in awe to see how HUGE and improved was the game. From all the games it had the best story mode, the endings where much better than the retro endigns from 2, it had an obscene number of unlockables, loads of strange game modes, hidden cutscenes, amazing scenarios (the war rage scenario from Mitsurugi is still my fav level form all the games)

It even had Hwang and Rock back xDDDD as well as many many new side characters (like Amy). My only complaign would be how hard was the difficulty :(



Speaking of big jumps, Soul Calibur IV was the most different game from the series xD i was amazed with the graphics and the gameplay was fun but....outside of that....sadly thers nothing

And for some reason, looking at the records, is the Soul game i played the most >_<



Soul Calibur Broken Destiny was for me the lowest point of the Soul series....the graphcis and gameplay are perfect but theres literally NOTHING to do there xDDDDD is like...a mini game or an excuse to play if you feel the urge to play SC IV while your on the street >_>



I am soo excited for SC V but soo...anxious.....and confused as well to see Godzilla with sword and Charlie Chaplin there but no Taki, no Sestsuka, no Yunseong, no Rock....i have the feeling this game is going to be the Tekken 4 of the series. Evene if they add new characters, is just....not the same.....

Also, i am the only one who find anoying those guest characters? I love Ezio much more than any other guest characters xD but i seen people asking if SC V is an open world game or a linear game....it seems they dont even have any idea of wath kind of game is and they are just going to get it for Ezio. I see him in all the promo posters instead of the main characters

I know people who buy the Broken Destiny game JUST to play with Kratos and people who dont play the games just because Link is not in there anymore

The game is still far away of being an off topic random selection of characters, like Street Fighter x Tekken that it transform into Capcom VS Namco now, but i would be glad if the next time Namco dont add guest characters xD and focus on continue the same style Soul Calibur III had >_>.....

WATHS HE THINKING?

Hey people!!!!!

First let me say, THANKS to all of you who follow this site, THANKS to all of you who enjoy my artwork and THANKS to all of you who comment my art. Even if you dont comment, THANK YOU for visiting me x3!!!!!!

It seems i open this year with...Tekken...with Miguel, hu xDDDD?




This picture actually have...more than a year, but just a few days ago i decided to pick one of my many Miguel sketches and give it a go. I pick this because it was a back side image soo it was going to be easy

I end up giving it TOO MUCH time to this!!! I was expecting to finish it in one day :( but the chains!!! Those chains!!!! And the LUCHADOR mark and the background (horrible Cartoon Network style background) where quite a challenge.

I dont know if i should post this with no background or shadows, to give a better look tough...wath do you people think?

Yes...a little teasing and i take some liberty with his underwear i know. I wodner waths he thinking? Maybe hes not happy because a ridiculous manequin with a pink wig kick his ass? Or maybe hes falling asleep...

EGG OF THE SUPREME KING

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY!!!!!!!!!

They are making a Berserk anime faithfull (for now) to the manga!!!!!! Is going to be a movie and it seems they really have in mind traslate all the sagas into movies/OVAs!!!!

At last an anime with dignity, originality and with a complete lack of school girls/teen-girls in sexual situations

The aniamtion have a lot of CG tough.....but oh well, i really wasnt expecting this.

Now i just need a new anime of Devilman to live happy forever and ever.

Here is the official site http://www.berserkfilm.com/index.php

DIATO

A Diato doing wath diato´s usually do. How original i am xD?

Sorry about the UGLY background...but anyway, i needed something dark to make him stand out a lot more xDDD soo a cave/lab was the only thing i could think about

This picture is for the Sablechan. Not because of Christmas and not because of his birthday, but because he has been a pretty cool and nice guy and his art is too awesome x3!!! I hope he dosnt mind and like this picture tough u_u it was supposed to be a side-project thingy but i ended up giving it a lot of my time and i loved it!

Draw this guy is just...soo amusing!!! His hairs where very difficult but i had a lot of fun doing even that and while i was drawing i felt how his colors where melting away my eyes D:!!!!! I cant shake the feeling he looks kinda...devilish...guess for the red skin? But i tried to stick to his original design as much as i could

Theres soo many questions about him D:!!!! Wath is he? Diato is HIS name or his species? Where can i get a diato D:? How cum taste like blueberry? Hope Mr.Kenny answey this questions in a future x3

Anyway, here is a close up for his eyes just ebcause i really liked it....i spent a lot of time on eyes and usually when i resize the image, the details get lost >_>



And the owner of this guy is in here http://savoryken.blogspot.com (Waths with Bloger messing with the links i post >_< ? )

A NOT VERY BLOODY VENGANCE

Soo a few months ago i posted an entry with the name of Blood Vengance....i was soo hyped about the news they where making a full scale movie of Tekken

This time with CG and made by Namco. It was too good to be reality and now the movie is out!!!!



It was hard to get around here but the Tekken Hybrid was an....interesting and odd package xD a movie, a HD remake and a demo....the HD remake of Tekken Tag Torunament is pretty awesome but its soo cute to see hwo simplistic are the graphcis and the gameplay and back then (in 2000) when the game was new, it ws the most amazing thing in the videogames world D:

The best deal in the package of course is the Blood Vengance movie



The movie really made me smile :3 its such an amazing and fun experience. Soo odd, just like the game, and soo exciting at the same time. The power behind it is pretty impresive, the people who worked on RE Regeneration movie, the scriptwriter from Cowboy Beboop and Samurai Champloo, pretty amazing seiyus behind the characters, the action director of Devil May Cry, etc....



The character development is pretty good in the movie, all characters are solid (even the ones are only a camoe, like Lee Chaolan) and they act and talk in the way theyr are supposed to do it! Thats pretty amazing for a movie about a fight game. See Xiaoyu mentions his dream about a big Xiaoyuland or listen her theme from Tekken 3 while she does a combo where a few of the most amazing details

Even the fight styles of each character are perfectlly protrayed



The visuals are soo amazing even in the most boring moments. Just the 3-some fight in the last section of the movie is worth checking it o_o Mokujin was pretty badass xDDDD and i specially liked Ana Williams. I am soo glad they add her to the story



The story dosnt link too much with the Tekken lore. Its mor elike a side story. The new chaarcter Shin Kamiya was...pretty useless xDDDD i think the only part i remember about him is his nude scene on the shower. Xiaoyu is pretty cute and Alisa is...well.....i really hated her on Tekken 6 but after seen her last scene with the rocket punch, i like her a little bit more.



Now is there where the movie falls....isntead of focusing on the main characters of Tekken, the 70% of the movie focus on this sidecharacters - Xiao and Alisa - and they lesbic romance. Lots of soft yuri and romantic scenes starts to pop here and there and school life.....yhea with soo many characters in Tekken....they focused on the two girly teens.....



Alisa and Xiaos excelent adventures are pretty amusing, But i cant see how THAT can represent Tekken on a movie...in certain point, the two girls are tossed aside and the movie continue. The Mishimas finish the conflict, of course, because the girls are just eye witness and dosnt have anything to do with the affairs.

With such amazing visuals and character development, the movie feel kinda wasted with the two main characters....i didnt had too big expectations for it actually, maybe thats why i enjoyed it xD

I really hope they amke a new movie...this time triying to really show Tekken on all his glory and with more characters interacting. Miguel wasnt in the movie but Kazuya and Jin (and Ana) bringed more than enough sexynes to the screen soo better luck next time xDDD



Oh i canot forget either the last section of the movie....all of the sudden, it stops being Tekken and it turns into DEVILMAN!!!!!! I was pretty excited about it but i dont know how other people could feel about it....i really wish they used the classic Devil Jin design
