Hmmm yeah I've been thinking about money an awful lot lately. If I work hard enough I might be able to go back... but I doubt it :s... I've got enough money to cover my tuition but my living expenses will probably screw me over. Hehehe nice, nothing like a good drink to relax you.

Do you know how long they will stay in London for because I really should go see them . It is strange how long they've survived for... very eerie!! You held a samurai sword (0_o)? So lucky > _ <... they do look awfully cool... the craftsmanship that goes with them is absolutely beautiful. I envy you > _ q. But I'll go to London soon to see... I think it's the "Future Design" fair or something... my memory's gone blank . Should be cool. Oooh last night I booked my hotel in Tokyo!!

You're the lucky one! I wish I was about to get on a plane to Tokyo. My friend is already there, teaching English. I wish I can visit her as well, but I'm skint and I don't have much free time suitable for holidays. That Terracotta army exhibition ends in April next year, so there's plently of time. I didn't have to queue for long, but i got to London at about 9am and booked a time for 2.40pm. Good luck!

I'm really really lucky . But this is the most money I've spent on anyway... it's a bit expensive but really worth every penny. I'm so excited!! It's quite easy to save up... but I'm not paying rent at the moment so it;s easy for me. I've been saving all year . Oh, so I've got plenty of time to see it . No rush.

Now that you mention it I'm pretty tempted to start going for the 3D Castlevania games... it just seems like they're a completely different game from the 2D classic style "Symphony of The Night" games. I really can't get enough of Harmony of Dissonance... I want to draw Juste so badly> _ q... reminds me an awful lot of Moi Dix moi and Gothic Lolita... I really love that game > _ < . Hmm I think I'll try the PS2 Games...You've intrigued me , thanks! Is there any PS2 Castlevania game you'd recommend? I've heard some pretty bad reviews on all of them... but... I'm sure the novelty of another Castlevania game will be worth it. Which is your favourite (0_o)?

Hmm I love Final Fantasy but I've played it to death... I love VIII and VII but the rest is just trying to mimic how cool VII was... XII and Dirge of Cerberus were excpetions . Devli May Cry is a classic!! I love games where it's all about making the gameplay look as cool as possible . Looking back on the PS2 I didn't love it as much as my PS1... I probably played my gameboy more than my PS2. The best games I played on the PS2 were...Anything from the Guilty Gear series... Metal Gear series... Devil May Cry series... God of War series ... Final Fantasy ofcourse and the Silent Hill series. I wasn't too bothered.... more interested in playing Castlevania on my Gameboy . But anyway, I'll have to get the PS2 Castlevania games!!

I just read the very last volume of Death Note... It was awesome > _ <. The best manga I've ever read . No probs on the favourite , I really liked it. Yoruichi is the coolest Bleach Character ofcourse . You got guilty Gear Isuka? I haven't got that one yet but I hear it's pretty sick. I'm listening to the Isuka OST now. Hmm rcently I just found out they might not release the new Guilty Gear game in Europe... if they don't I'm going to be pretty pissed off. You better take advantage of the release date in the US and play if for me .

Man it's been ages since I've seen any Bleach. I'll catch up with my viewing soon enough. I think I'm going to re watch it from the beginning whilt keeping up with the new ones as they're released...

Yeah I think your right. Not better than FFVII... I'm being a bit obsessive over Guilty Gear at the moment. Who's your favourite character by the way? I always play as Testament and DIzzy. Johnny and Ky Kisuke are pretty cool... Sol Badguy completely owns aswell. I love all the characters really (L). Your a Castlevania fan too?? So cool! "Symphony of the Night" and "Harmony of Dissonance" were my favourites. But the new Portrait of Ruin game is pretty cool too. You played the Bleach Wii game at a Con? Your too lucky > _ q. The anime, manga and games following in the UK is pretty crap unfortuneatly, so I don't go to many of the Cons here... but I did mangae to Visit Comiket in Tokyo ^_^.

Oh, I saw your new line art. I'll download it and CG it. I'm going on holiday at the end of the week and I'm working a lot of this week but I'll try and get it done soon!! Do you have any preferences for colours?

Ya i definately am gonna take advantage of taht if it release it here lol. It took me a day or two to get used to this unique button setup but i beat it . Lol the last level was a like puppy in a crazy monster thing, it had like polar bear arms and legs, a shark body and head that was wide open and the puppy had like these crazy scientist goggles on it. It was funny when i 1st playd, i was so confused lol. I was like "i was facing 1 person and now im 2 WTF!!!!! and what the hell does that mean! "here comes daredevil" (what does that mean lol?)

ya i definately love the unique group of characters in that game; soo awesome. my favorites r testament, the samurai girl, that chinese girl the fighter, johhny, sol badguy.

ben a castlevania fan since i was a child lol. i loved syphony of the night and castlevania 64 and castlevania 3 dracula's curse (NES) and almost all of them lol. Omg the bleach game was so much fun, But id rather go to the one you went to. I mean its like Hmmm Boston? or Japan? this is a tough 1 (sarcasm) LOL! Don't feel bad most anime games in general r bad to begin with except for a chosen few.

I changed my mind lol, sorry bout that, you can if you want, ill still do the practice run lol. Colors id like black for my hair, tan for my skin, o realyy important!!!... the unifrom i designd is really weird like the black part sticks out of the sleaves, while the (white robe) is cut short at the left top arm. The right arm - the part that is hanging is the white robe. Red for the rope belt, the straps r on the shoulder plate is leather the prayer beads r a japanese red. For the colors in general white for the top robe, black under robe and black hakama, everything else red and black and some white( samurai armour colors). I hope that wasn't too much.... But you should see the 2nd 1 im gonna load in a few that has most of the colors on it. and decide between which one you to tweak.

Well, I think the release date is something like the 28th of August... your so lucky > _ q. You have to tell me all about it!! I think I'm going to order Isuka off the net. WTF? Really? Sounds like as really random boss . The End Boss to #XX Reload Midnight Carnival was insane. It took me 7 hours to kill her (> _ <. It was worth it tho... I hate her. Hehe yeah it's all so random, do they still say "Heaven or Hell" at the beginning of each fight? What does it even mean :s?

Well I definitely think Testament and Dizzy are on my list to draw. I'm actually mounting up a pretty big list now. Yeah the character design was really cool... the only characters I really hate are Potemkin and Slayer... they suck .

Wow really? I didn't pl;ay too much of the old school snes ones... or the 3d ones. I always followed them when they were released onto the GBA, PS1 and DS. Alucard and Juste are the coolest Characters in the series I think. They've been added to my list . Oh no, what I mean is that the fan base for Anime and Manga in the UK is terrible, therefore we get really crappy Cons. The DVD releases here are pretty non-existent too... I'm still waiting for stuff like Strawberry Panic and Busou Renkin. But yeah, I'd rather be at Comiket in Japan . I'll be going back there this Christmas with my Girlfriend again so I really can't wait > _ <.

Oh... so do you want me to? Or was that just a practice for you? I'm confused :s. Well I'll wait for your reply just incase. Ok, well I'll wait for you to upload your next thing then I'll decide

I will if i have the money and if it is shipped here without a doubt lol. I just need to slow down on spending for now. I ben a spend thrift in the past week lol. I dont know if ull liek Isuka coz it has a pretty old school feel to it, so it might b as good as the one you got, but its still a really good game to get into lol.

As for the boss ya, WTF is right, did i mention you fight it in Antartica? It sounds completely ridulous but im not lieing lol. What does the boss for urs look like? Yep they still say "HEAVEN OR HELL," "FIGHT!" I haven't the slightest clue what the hell it means lmao! but the randomness makes the game awesome i guess. I just wish mine had some sorta story line or character bios to it, does urs?

I feel ya man, i ben having urges to draw some of the GG characters, I KNO!! mayb i can do the lineart for some the characters for ya! i hate those too and faust lol

the 3d ones are fun but can be thorn in the balls gettin the movements right and when you go from platform to plateform lol. I all honesty i like castlevania better in 2D than 3D, but 3D is still good and fun lol

sorry you get crappy Cons. OMG you poor soul! O i read Busou Renkin and that was pretty good, i liked it; i dont remember if its released here but i doubt it. Lol if i was wasn't such a noob id buy the DVD's and mail em overseas.. but i think id screw that up.

Ya Comiket hands down lmao! Thats cool that you and you girl r doin that, bet you can't wait lol, shes adorable, how long u guys ben goin out? Me and my girlfriend (cherryblossomz) r gion to Florida soon, i can't wait coz i never gone nywhere besides the surroundin states, or ride the airplane.

As for that lineart im SOOOOOOOOOOO sorry to confuse you lol, i just couldn't make up my mind, and im the most indecisive person ever lol. I finally figured something out just now lol!!! i could do as much GG lineart as i can for you, that way i get my practice on my cpt. pic., you get urs, o and ill definatly feature them on my journal. .. Would taht b ok with you? Again im sooooo sorry i couldn't make up my mind.... Its up to you GG or my cpt. lineart

Yeah it'd Def being released in the US so you better get it (> _ <. Well, I love old school beat em ups so I'm sure it's OIsuka will be perfect. Isuka came after the release of the game I've got so if anything Midnight Carnival is even more oldschool ). Hehehe Antartica? Sounds pretty cool. Yeah the Final Bosses are insane in GG. The final boss for Midnight Carnival took me 7 hours to kill... it was a long day > _ q. The randomness of it really adds to it... one of the most original fighting games I've ever played.

Hmm well I think I'm going to draw... Testament and Dizzy for sure . I don't know, Faust is pretty funny but I'd never play as him. The worst are Potemkin, Zappa... the bloke with the fans annoys me too. Well, my game has quite a bit of Story, really worth getting.

I think you can't turn 2D Platform/Action games into 3D. Games like Kirby, Castlevania and Mario should stay 2D. My personal opinion... Castlevania is the best tho. You need to get yourself a DS and play Portrait of Ruin. The best new Castlevania game I think.

Nah it's ok. Having crappy Cons here just makes the good Cons in Japan all the more exciting. I just find it annoying how limited the Western Market is for Anime/Manga/Games. Here we only have one manga/anime magazine called NEO. It used to be cool but the editor changed last year and now it sucks. They only cover really mainstream tittles like Naruto etc. Sucks . Thanks for the offer, but really, it's ok!! I'll wait till I go travelling again or if I'm really desperate I'll order through [link] .

Well I'm mainly going back out to be with my Girlfriend but ofcourse Comiket's on the list. I love Tokyo so much... really, there's so much to explore and do. I don't think I'd ever get bored there. Thanks very much . She really is the cutest most beautiful girl I've ever seen!! I love her to pieces . Me and My Girl have been together quite a while. We'll be Tokyo during our anniversary. She's got something big planned for us but she's keeping it a surprise . Oh you've never been outside the US? I guess everywhere is so far away from there... you have to travel about 12 hours to get to places like Europe. Pretty expensive too. Florida sounds lovely./ A few of my friends have been and they loved it so I'm sure you'll have the best time

No No don't worry about it! I've been pretty busy working on my Kirby Fan Art so it's fine. GG sounds like a great Collab Project!! Thanks alot, just post the line art on your DA Gallery and I'll download it.

o well then im definately getin it then . Ya Guilty Gear is definately original. Mine has no story whats so ever but it still rules lol.

3D mario was pretty good but ya 2D is a classic. 2D in general is an overal classic. The only 2D game that i can think of off the top of my head that i didn't like/was better in 3D would b Metal Gear Solid. But ya a DS is on my list of things to get lol. A lot of my friends (who r castlevania fans) loved portrait of ruin.

here we have a bunch of anime magazines its just i haven't checkd em out lol As for cons me and my girl r goin to Anime Boston again lol i think its in march. I can't wait for Florida/anime con, coz i hardly get to c her now that i lost my damn license, but i loves my girl to pieces too . O the one thing i love the most is the Dealer's Room. Omg! theres so many things to buy lol its addicting lol.

Thats so cool that u 2 a doin all that in in Tokyo. O and happy aniversery!!!! How long you 2 ben together? Bet ur excited for the surprise lol. Ya Europe and Japan r my 1st and 2nd places on my to go list lol.

As for drawing my fav's from GG i don't know which ones i want to draw lol. Do u know any good sites that i could use to get GG reference pics? If not ill take a look myself lol. But are there any u want me to draw for you, like ur favs? But ya i too at the moment am hung up on the contest pic lol. and don't worry i won't take long with this contest lol.

I'm really getting back into my old school style games so I really think Guilty Gear is one of my favourite series at the moment. I just put in an order for Isuka!! I really hope Accent Core XX come out over here .

Yeah Metal Gear's a Classic. 3D Metal Gear is much better. I just got back into playing Castlevania POR and I started playing the hardest mode ever. Your capped at level 1 on Hard mode... it's insane > _ <.

Anime Boston sounds cool. We have the London Expo in October... I think I'll go and try and get a table in the artists alley. I've yet to post any of my manga here > _ q. I'll try and do that when I get from my holiday. Well, enjoy Florida . It's nice you can get some quality time with your Girlfriend . Oh, a Dealers room (0_0)? Sounds so cool!! You'll have to tell me about it after you go.

Yup... I think maybe we'll try and go sooner. But I'd really love to be there for our anniversary. Christmas/New Years in Japan is awesome too. We've been together just over a year and a half. Time keeps going by so fast tho. Seriously, you have to visit both Europe and Japan. Europe must be the party capital of the world. You should get yourslef an inter-rail ticket and travel for a while. The hostels and drinks aound Europe are dirt cheap (except for England). Japan is like visiting a different world. It's so hard to describe, it's just something you have to see for yourself. I've managed to save up enough to go and I only work weekends so I'm sure you'd be able to no problem .

Hmm, well I think we should draw Testament cos he's so cool... maybe Johnny? I'm already working on a Dizzy pick so I've got that covered . Oh, I found a great website for you to look at for Refs too.
[link]
You can't get much better refs than here. Oh don't worr about it!! Take your time and concentrate on your contest pic. I don't have Photoshop in Cardiff so I can't really do anything untill Friday. Yeah I'm really excited too!! If we do Testament... can I draw him in his Mint Green Costume?? He looks really cool in green
