Description I started to go through my runtime this morning, loading all my Aiko clothing into D|S, seeing what I liked and what I thought I could do something with. I hadn't used the Bijun Jigoku set before and started with that. Added a head morph to Aiko and fitted the Anime Flip hair to her, found the freebie Katana set I picked up a while back and then went looking for an background.

Initially this was going to be a normally lit and rendered piece but one of the light sets I loaded just looked to cool not to try and use and the result is the image above - 1 part Kill Bill, 1 part Ninja Scroll.

As always, thanks for taking the time to stop by and have a look.

Thankyou. It was a bit of a gamble that paid off.

I can't remember exactly where I found that particular katana, but a quick search or Renderosity ([link] turned up these. Hope that helps.

Hmm, not sure how peaceful I'd be with a giant snake who's venom is that colour and that smokes when it hits the floor, but I can see where you are coming from. And yeah, she is definitely preparing to use the sword - to make reptile shish-ka-bob's!

Damn - I really need some sleep. I was thinking of one image while writing about another. First time I've done that (hope it's the last time too - I feel like a real goose now). lol

Yeah, that it does.

I'm usually in bed by 2am unless I don't have to work the following day - and even then I'm usually in bed as the boy doesn't care what time we've gone to bed, he's still awake and ready to get up at 6:30 every morning regardless. lol.

Thank you.

I think this anime/toon look is something I'm going to experiment with as I'm really happy with how this one turned out.

a pretty decent "toon style" attempt. the pose is nice, too bad about the hair trans-mapping. that is out of your control however.

Ascavilya In reply to Tenebere [2007-06-26 06:31:32 +0000 UTC]

Thanks.

Yeah, the hair is a little bit out there. It's actually the anime flip for Maya Doll that I managed to fit to Aiko, so I'm pretty sure it wasn't ever intended to be used in the way I did here.

Thanks for the feedback tho, I appreciate it.

Who knows. Anything is possible. I'm working on a wallpaper at the moment so it will be interesting to see how that turns out.
