WIP - Nina Antalk (Koukaku no Regios)
Oh man...I have not done any posts or graphic arts in sooo looong...I really meant to post something on Christmas, (I have the Photoshop file as proof...) but I fell asleep and didn't get the E-Card even remotely done on time. I blame honeycorrupts for passing on her procrastination bug to me.
Well, tomorrow is New Years Eve, and hopefully I can get some semblance of an E-Card up this time..? :P Besides all the excuses and apologies, I hope everyone on my FList is doing well. I might've surprised some of you when I randomly started commenting again out of nowhere...I think Sempai is the only one who I still chat to on and off. And that's because she spams my phone with random text messages, lololol. I'm on Twitter as well now though. Not all that active, but I have the gadget sitting on my desktop, so I do see the messages fly by. Please add me because I feel so horrible that I have not kept up to date with anyone, and so out of touch that I don't know if you'd still like to chat to me or not. ;~; The username is Yunaura as well.
Well, here's a little piece of work-in-progress that I started a couple of days ago.
So far, I have this much retraced:
A lot of the lines don't quite make sense until you see it on top of the original image. However, I realized that more than half of my lines are going to be void because once all the shadows get converted, I'll be losing a lot of details. T_T;; I need to plan things out better...
This is the original image:
Nina Antalk from Koukaku no Regios (Chrome Shelled Regios)
I chose this image because it's rather kick-@$$. My favorite character is actually Felli-sempai or Fon-Fon, but any epic image with either of them usually had the rest of the cast as well. I think right now, one character is my limit in this psuedo-vectoring of mine...
And this is the style I'm going for:
This is from a 2005 game called OZ, or The Sword of Etheria. I started playing the PAL release of it (so I actually know what's going on, yayness), but I was in love with the artstyle from long before. The theme song, Polovtsian Dances, was remixed and placed in DDR Extreme 2. I, or a friend I bothered, looked into it and found out about the game. I bothered another friend to get it for me sometime last year, and I finally started playing it this year. The battle system is a little tedious, but it's mostly because I haven't fully adjusted to it as of yet. Too busy playing Oboro Muramasa: The Demon Blade, lol...
Well, I'm hoping to get somewhere near 75%, or the whole thing done tomorrow, but I have to go run a ton more errands since I'm going back to Berk on Friday afternoon. If I somehow end up not posting and E-Card, I wish you all a Happy New Year. May it be filled with happiness, prosperity, and luck.
