Newly acquired Sakura-tan wallscroll was stolengiven to me kindly by Seiya when I raided his house.

It took me about five or so hours on and off, but I’m finally done unpacking. Tomorrow is Poster Day. Thinking of putting up more big posters, leaving slightly less room for smaller Megami pinups. I’ll give priority to newer blood.

Fixed the face. Hopefully I won’t screw up cleaning it up!

I like where this is going, but I need to fix up some things. I’ll do that tomorrow between copying down every kanji I know 50 times, reviewing Japanese grammar and looking up various bits of vocab.

This post will probably be the last of these for a bit.

For the Alter figure, I auto-level’d all the pics, then touched some up individually. As such, the lighting and colours are kind of inconsistent between the photos. For the trading figures I just did the auto level thing and left it at that. The colours still change a bit, but I’ll blame that on my camera. As you can see, I’m still rather new at this.

I only really post on one forum these days, but every now and again I complete a piece of work that looks kind of ok and decide to post it on various other forums that I have posted on in the past. Back in the far off year of 2003, I posted on the Anime Academy forums for a period of time. After I figured out the place wasn’t really for me, I left, but I still popped in a few times to post bits of art in their art forum for critique. It seems they have some kind of hilarious anti-pedo sentiment now, and because of this totally harmless sig, plus a link to my art site, I am now temp-banned.

Now, I don’t really care at all. It’s not my type of community, so being shut off from it doesn’t really bother me. What I do find hilarious is how there are still anime fans out there who are genuinely bothered by those of us who have a preference for younger 2D girls. I’d think by 2008 the general American fan community would learn to accept us, given they’ve accept freaks like yaoi fangirls (and fanboys!) quite readily. Near as I’m concerned, if a dude who likes looking at pictures of 2D dudes fucking other 2D dudes is acceptable, then certainly a dude who likes pictures of 2D dudes fucking 2D little girls is acceptable. If the anime fan community is open minded enough to accept faggots homosexuals, then certainly they can open their minds to accept the far more enlightened lolicon men of the world.

It’s just funny, you know?

The second Tsukuyomi ending animation is beautiful.

I need to get to re-watching that series…

… but I’m too busy watching trash.
