Description Ta-da! I re-did this picture. Kind of an interesting idea, huh?

I wrote a fanfic a while ago on fanfiction.net, in which I mentioned something about Weevil knowing how to play the cello. I think illustrating it was fun to do.

I have a bamboo flute (I created that for my music project a year ago) , but I'm not good at playing woodwind instruments so please don't laugh at the reason why, but it's because I can't whistle. The only instrument I play is the drums because they're easy; I also like rim-shots.

Even though I know the flute, I can't whistle on my own either. I've never been able to. I'd love to try playing something like a bamboo flute. I never tackled percussion, though...

I actually have an imaginary YGO minor character band with Weevil at keyboard, Rex at vocals and electric guitar, Bonz at drums, and Esper Roba at bass guitar. XD I laugh every time I think about it.

Hehe, you're welcome. I generally comment on anything Weevil-related...

Unless it's...shrimp-shipping material...*shudders* >_>

I completely agree with you. I'm not a shrimp-shipper either. And that minor character band definitely is something. I kind of like the idea.

YES!!! FINALLY! Someone else who's a Weevil fan, AND NOT A SHRIMP-SHIPPER!!! And that's good. Atleast I'm not the only one who thinks that a minor character band would be a good idea...<_< Major characters are kind've...dry, anyway, in my opinion...Except Joey, but he's not very smart, so...he doesn't count. Atleast, not with how my mind works...

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of many of the main characters in YGO, besides Kaiba and Tristan. And of course, Joey provides a lot of humor.

Yeah, Joey is pretty funny... Meh...Tristan kind've bores me because he seems sort've...not very detailed...<.< Kaiba's alright, I guess...Just a bit...mean to Joey. Then again, so are alot of characters...XD

That's true. Sometimes I wish Kaiba didn't have so much of an attitude.

So do I. By the way, I'm Anerai-Weevilfan, but I got a new account since I forgot my password after having to change my e-mail address. The result: Couldn't retrieve my password since my old e-mail address had already been deleted. @_@ Quite frustrating.

But, anyway, continuing our conversation (which we could switch to messages if you so choose ^^', I do agree that Kaiba could be alot better if he'd drop the "I'm-better-than-you" attitude. Of course...that attitude is the reason why many of his fans seem to like him, so...where he might gain me and a few others as fans, he'd lose alot of his fan base. ^^' Therefore, he could never be changed, even if the original series did continue.

LadyUnderwood In reply to breakoutthenapalm [2008-07-27 22:31:29 +0000 UTC]

Kaiba could be so much better, morally, if he tried to get along with people, but...you make a point; his fans might not take to an agreeable Kaiba so easily. It's a little scary to imagine him that way, too. And considering his past that made him the way he is, he changing his attitude wouldn't make sense.

breakoutthenapalm In reply to LadyUnderwood [2008-07-28 01:18:02 +0000 UTC]

*nods* Yeah, some of his fans might dub him a Gary-Stu...which I just realized he would be. O_O Kaiba...as a Gary-Stu? You're right. That would be scary. Yeah, changeing his attitude would kind've be like saying, "So what if my parents abandoned us, my brother was bullied, and I've never felt joys of nurturing love. Have some flowers!" Okay. That made me laugh too much.

They DID die? :/ Oh, that's right. Okay, then. That's slightly less depressing XD. I sometimes don't pay as much attention to the lives of the characters I don't like as much, and that's probably why I got confused. ^^'

LadyUnderwood In reply to breakoutthenapalm [2008-07-31 18:45:59 +0000 UTC]

I thought that it was mentioned somewhere that the mother died during/after having Mokuba, but I'm not sure about the father.

breakoutthenapalm In reply to LadyUnderwood [2008-07-31 20:48:57 +0000 UTC]

Hmm...I'm not sure either. That was kind've fuzzy. All I really know about from Kaiba's past was that Gozaburo was a complete-[censored by 4Kids] and Kaiba started yelling at him that he was going to kill the guy or something so Gozaburo jumped out a window because he was so scared...O_O Which I now realize is a pretty odd idea.

LadyUnderwood In reply to breakoutthenapalm [2008-07-31 22:19:33 +0000 UTC]

Wow, I don't remember that scene! I haven't actually seen it (or I just don't remember), but doesn't Kaiba jump out of a window sometime in season one?

breakoutthenapalm In reply to LadyUnderwood [2008-07-31 22:40:24 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I didn't see it, either, actually. I only know about it because I was reading about it on yujyo.org! Apparently, in the 4Kids version, Gozaburo just died of a heart attack because Seto THREATENED to kill him. o_O That would be pretty faint of heart. And yeah, Seto does jump out of the window of his headquarters because Pegasus' henchmen were trying to capture him...And, in the 4Kids' version...WITH INVISIBLE GUNS! *laughs self to death*

LadyUnderwood In reply to breakoutthenapalm [2008-08-02 22:14:37 +0000 UTC]

Oh, I see. Wow. When you think about it, it doesn't make much sense that Gozaburo would die that way...they couldn't come up with anything better for the English version, could they? So, in the 4kids version, do the postures of the mens' hands and arms just make it look like they're holding guns, even though they're not there? I'd like to see that.

breakoutthenapalm In reply to LadyUnderwood [2008-08-03 00:34:03 +0000 UTC]

*shakes head* It didn't make sense. Though, to be honest, I was surprised when 4Kids didn't just say that Gozaburo was so surprised, he just "disappeared". They seem to be so keen on editing. ^^' Yeah, it does look like they're holding guns...INVISIBLE guns. I think that what 4Kids was going for was that the guards were pointing at Kaiba...Because, well, it's threatening since...*can't resist* It's not polite to point!

Yes! "Let's teach kids manners so that our ratings will go up with the mature adults, since, goodness knows, we'll never get big with the people who actually watch anime!" I could definitely imagine a 4Kids executive saying stuff like that ...

Anerai-Weevilfan [2007-08-27 21:41:49 +0000 UTC]

Nice picture! I always thought of Weevil as a pianist type, but I CAN see him playing the following instruments (in order from most, to least likely):

1. Piano.
2. Violin.
3. Cello.
4. Flute.
5. Clarinet.
6. Drums.
7. Harmonica.
8. Saxophone. (which would be awesome)
9. Xylophone.
10. Guitar. (Yes. I have imagined Weevil playing the guitar. It was awesome, but extremely unlikely. <_<

I would love to see Weevil play ANY of these...But atleast I'm glad I got to see your drawing of Weevil with a cello.

LadyUnderwood In reply to Anerai-Weevilfan [2007-08-27 22:07:19 +0000 UTC]

I had to go through a lot of instrument choices before I finally decided on the cello. The flute and piano seem likely, too. In fact, I had someone else comment saying that they could see him with the flute. Maybe I should do a picture with a whole YGO orchestra.

Thanks for the comment!

Weevil must feel the same way when he draws

Weevil-I hate drawing!! Its a waste of my time!!
Vaati-Um.Hi.I'm purple.Bye.
Weevil-Get away! I don't like randomness that much but only when Rex and I make fun of Bonz that is! HyukHyukHyuk!!!

LadyUnderwood In reply to TheForestSage [2007-01-27 17:23:12 +0000 UTC]

Weevil would probably be an expert at drawing insects if he liked art. Who knows, maybe he does. :sly: And it does seem like he and Rex would have a good time laughing at Bonz if they ever met.

I definately couldn't draw a pose like that without a reference. And by "reference" I actually mean copying a photo, heehee! Good job. And it's nice to see some realistic depth added to Weevil. In the show he's a pretty flat character who usually only focuses on one thing.

LadyUnderwood In reply to nessa [2006-09-04 16:42:53 +0000 UTC]

That's true. It seems like a good way to expand peoples' view of him. As for the pose, it took me a while to figure out that the cello is held in front of the musician, not next to him.

Thank you so much for the comment!

hehe, thats cute! I love the cello - i think its pretty
I tried playing the cello once... but i guess my hands were too small, so i just kept up with the violin

LadyUnderwood In reply to IzZiE88 [2006-06-09 18:13:08 +0000 UTC]

Cool. I have trouble with stringed instruments (I tried violin once), so I play brass and wood wind. I had a friend who used to play the cello, and the only reason she chose it is because it's the only stringed instrument that requires the player to sit down.

Thanks for commenting!

Cool - we didn't have an oboe player in our school, so they got this kid's mom to come in and play it for them. I've always liked the saxophone - it has such a jazzy sound! :cool:

I know the flute, and the baritone horn (brass).
