Well, well ^_^; Welcome ^^;
Maaa ... as you can see, this page is starting to accumulate cobwebs. Here's the deal ...
I feel a little more confident about my artistic abilities these days. I've actually been
doing things that could be considered good art (well ... at least, by some -_^ )But ... I have
very limited scanner access -_- The only time I could use the scanner was before/after school,
and before school is out because I'm on such a tight schedule in the morning. After school I
have no easy transportation. So ... it could be a while before this page sees big updates ^^;
However, keep checking back! I could get lucky ... besides, this is now a co-sponsored art
page. <grins>
-
A fairly decent Yuffie pic. Scanned in
from (would you believe it?) lined paper. The outline wouldn't be so
bold, but the first time I scanned it it didn't work right ... eventually,
I figured out how to get to the scanner's settings and
scan it in as greyscale instead of color ^^; But I'd
already done over the outline ... so. But anyway. 32k
-
Another piece of my final - a Sephiroth one
this time, sans Black Cape. I just gave him a black shirt with what
appears to be the SOLDIER logo. 40k, "color"
- A generic cherub icon. 7k, puny color
-
A kind of old one I did of Magus, everyone's
favorite Chrono Trigger sorceror. I've retouched this so the notebook lines
are almost completely gone ... didn't bother with the thumb though ^^; 17k
-
Do please excuse this. But ... you *know* I had to try Michiru-sama sometime ... ! Anyway, this
is much better than my ... er ... first attempt ... which no, you
won't be seeing up HERE anytime soon ^^;;; Looking back, the hair
needs more detail. *sigh* Mediocre amateurism sucks ^_^; Anyway, this
is from ep. 106, where Michiru is saying "If you pick that up once, you'll
do it again ... " <sigh> I love Nakayoshi ^_^; 9k
-
Speaking of Michiru ... here's a more recent
rendition of everyone's ... well, mine anyway ... favorite senshi ...It's
from the SuperS movie ... well, anyway, the cards says SuperS, and we
know how many times the Outers appear in that season ^_^; So, I'm
assuming it's from the movie ... anyway, it's a really beautiful picture
of the two, Michiru looking out towards Haruka, who's in profile and
blushing ... I should scan in that card ^_^; I think I need to rescan this
one too ^^; I even managed to get this into decent dimensions at school,
but I need to scan it darker ... Oh, the quote, "Let this moment last
forever ... " is from the Alita manga, the last tankouban. The whole thing
is said by our dear Doctor Desty Nova, and is as follows: "If one can
truly believe in happiness ... one can only have this prayer ... 'Let
this moment last ... forever.' " <sniff> And then Kaos as Den attacks
trying to get Alita out of the Ouroborous program she's caught in when
Nova says that, and he goes back to his usual insane self to fight. Oh
well ... 62k
-
This one I actually did a little after that first Michiru
picture up there ... back around the beginning of March. It's
the girl described by some as "the next best thing this side of
Haruka" ... that's right, Tenjou Utena-sama!
This one is her ascending the stairs to the duelling arena ... you
know, one of these days, maybe I'll work up enough confidence to
draw something out of my head instead of relying on cards and
anime and stuff for ideas ... at least it's not tracings though ^^;
Oh, and that little black squiggle in the middle of her hair ...
is not my fault. I had this notebook with me when we were playing
Diplomacy in the Social Studies room after school one day and
someone tested their pen on the back of Utena-sama's hair ;_;39k
-
And this one ... names do not matter ... but if you insist ... "Id" ...
Sorry. Couldn't resist ^^; It says so on the drawing, anyway ^^; The thing
about Id is there's only the one picture of him in Xenogears. The only thing
you see with him on it is his icon and his chin in a movie o_o So for this
one I loosely based Id off of a portrait of Fei in the instruction manual,
and made ... changes. ^^; It doesn't really resemble the in-game picture
of Id, but ... good enough, I guess ^^; 42k
-
A "better Nyakun." And yes, that is
my first time trying to draw a Japanese-styled sword ^^; 42k
-
First of two pics of Emeralda from Xenogears. This is
Emeralda in her adult form ... wai *_* I think she looks very cool this way.
<grins> This is a fairly good rendition of the original picture, from
the ending animation. 26k
-
Second of two pics of Emeralda from
Xenogears ... this one's Chibi-Emeralda, ie, Emeralda as she first joins your
party. The first one crapped out when I scanned it the first time, and I
didn't have time to scan it again this morning, so it'll be here soon. Which
is too bad, since i like it better ^^; Anyway, this picture wasn't done from
any other picture (^^;) so it's more or less original. For once. 43.8k
-
Nyakun in his Crescens Armor, with his new
sword. Before doing this picture,
I sat down with Xenogears for about half an hour and made sketches of Emeralda's
Gear Crescens from just about every angle I could find. Even rotating
after a Kislev Battling victory. ^_^; Incidentally, this was finished in
Bordeaux.
-
A passable representation of Ci. The only real guideline I
used for her was to give her a couple Michiru-ish characteristics.
-
Sailor Polaris of the Otaku Wars!.
-
A quick drawing of the Amichanian Sodalite.
- Another small picture, of Nuriko!
- The dreaded self-portrait ...
- Agrias Oaks from Final Fantasy Tactics. Easily one
of my favorite characters. The color version of this is okay, except for her hair ...
this pic is in black and white. (~64k)
- Sailor Star Destroyer of Otaku Wars! infamy. There's a
reason she looks like Nyakun ... ^^;;;;; (Oh yeah, THANKS Angyl :P ) (~100k)
- Not fanart, but the Dark Star hierarchy from Slayers TRY.
- Xellos chibified from my Slayers cards.
- Xelloss from the Slayers TRY ending. Wow, three non-fanart
pics in a row.
Pics by Hime-chan
With captions by Hime-chan now, too ^_^;
-
Aihino Himeko Lying in the moonlight looking at the
night sky. This is
the first drawing I've ever done of her. It's actually in color....but my
scanner was in black/white mode and I was too lazy to fix it. ^.^;
-
Himeko ~
Posing for the camera in her civilian clothing. <studies the
picture a bit> Yes I certainly was a novice back then. Some of her curves
aren't right...oh well.
-
Aihino Natsumi ~ Himeko's mother, Queen of Fire. This is
the one and
only picture that I've ever done of her. The colors go quite well together,
I think. But one may wonder where Himeko-chan got her blue eyes from.
Certainly wasn't her red-eyed mother. o.O;
-
Himeko ~
Another old picture, but good shading, I believe. There's a few
things on her that are quite off that I'm not going to take the time and
effort to fix. It still looks nice. <realizes she needs more color pictures
done>
-
Emeralda ~
Okei, this was a request by the Icefalcon himself. <"himself"? ^^;>Straight
out of the owners manual...with color sprinkled about. Still at a time when
copying was all I could do and do it well.
-
Kakyuu Hime ~
a.k.a. Princess Fireball from Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon:
Sailor Stars. This was just a sketch that I shaded a little bit. I always
seem to make the faces on people either to wide...or too tall. Oh well,
something to work on.
-
Himeko ~
sitting at her spot near the lake behind her adoptive parents
house, she realizes that she is a princess by the symbol on her forehead.
Again, a few mistakes and not colored. I have colored it now and it's up on
my wall. I should scan that in again....if I ever get around to it.
-
Kaioh Michiru ~
The princess of the sea, she walks along the (imaginary)
beach pushing her hair out of her face. the shading is *really* nice on this
one although her cheek is a tad chubby...oh well. It just
makes her look younger.
-
Belldandy
from Ah! Megami-sama. I did this picture at summer school (yes I
have summer school >.<) to use for my guest host section banner for my fanart
ML. It was my first time drawing her and that anime style, so I think I did
pretty well. Although there are a few things off...but really no big deal.
Oh, and if you would like to join and are an AOL member (hopefully someday
I'll have it available to non-aol users), then e-mail me saying you would
like to join my fanart ML! kei? KEI!
-
Chibi-Hime ~ This was a quick one I did and I'm wondering why I'm even putting
it up. I totally screwed up on the shading >.< Oh well. People still say
it's good, so I'm putting it up.
Comments? Criticism? Anything, in fact, short of outright flaming?
Email me here,
kourino at hotmail.com. Be honest. I don't mind, I have no ego as far
as my "art" is concerned ^^; ... well, not too much anyway ^^;
Or, you can mail Hime,
athenahimeko on hotmail now.
