Description For . I dun like it, but I'm hoping you will.

Well, I struggled with nearly every aspect of this; the poses, the background etc, and no amount of references in the world could help me. Now there's just far too much for me to complain about, so I just won't bother this time around. Apart from these brief notes-
Sorry to all Maxi fans for his tragically disgusting appearance. Personally I've never had much of an interest in him myself, and in case you hadn't noticed; I- CAN'T DRAW-MEN.
If the pictures so bad you don't have a clue what the hell's going on; Maxi beat Taki with a 'Ring Out.' That's all you need to know.
Yes, that is supposed to be water Taki's about to free-fall into. Hard to believe isn't it?

As usual, Advanced Critique/CC is GREATLY encouraged. Plus anyone who actually figured out who the hell these two were before you read this gets a cookie.

I love how the colors came out. And I hope Taki's outfit is waterproof, as I'd hate to have it shrink on her as soon as she gets out of the water.

That is true. I have to wonder if she ever goes barefoot, since I've seen her with those geta a lot.

Holy cow! That's awesome. I don't think Taki's mask really works in the game, but somehow you've made it look right here.

MissAnneThropee In reply to robot-god [2007-01-05 13:25:16 +0000 UTC]

Thanks a bunch. I disliked Taki's mask at first too. But once you notice little details and realize the whole 'cat-demon look' she's going for, it sort of grows on you. Plus, I think this costume is a lot more intricate and thus more interesting than her last 2.

I never saw the TV series, I'm not even sure it was aired here in England, but I've heard and read the bad reviews.

Eurgh, I'd move! XD I can't live without my local Manga/Comic store.

If you ever do manage to find a place which sells them, check out 'Fathom' by Michael Turner (the artsist who created the early Witchblade issues, the best in my opinion.) It's differenmt, but brilliant all the same.

Hmm, well I've checked and it states quite a few times that he's English, but I agree about the accent. It's far-fetched that he'd keep it with how much he travels.

I absolutely luuuuuv you for this!!! *steals pic off the net to treasure it forever* *takes deep breath*

Okay, now that I've calmed down a bit, I can get to the advanced critique. *trying to stop grinning* Your coloring technique is gorgeous!! I soo need to learn that! This pic looks like a page straight out of a comic book!! I love the dynamics of this pic as well. *something else I also need to work on since all my chars look like they're posing* I think Maxi does look more mature here. He kinda reminds me of Wolverine a bit. LOL Taki looks more voluptuous than usual. I also love the look of the water and the rocks. I still think you can really do this for a living. You should take commissions! This is honestly one of the best fanarts I've seen of Taki!!

Okay, now that the advance critique is over, I say this... THIS PIC SO TOTALLY ROCKS!!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! Happy New Year to me!! Happy New Year to me!!

So glad you like it.

Straight from a comic book? I wish. And there were too many references used here for me to take comissions, but one day I shall be as good as Michael Turner and Ryoichi Ban. I shall.

Yes, Happy New Year to the both of us. Thanks again for the comments, the and your support in general. I luvs you!

I know how you feel about not taking comissions yet. I'm not up to taking them yet either because 1) I take such a long time, and 2) if I'm not feeling it, I give up sometimes. I hate things not turning out the way I want them too, but I've found that most ppl are happier with my art than me. I see you are the same way. Um, why does this feel like deja vu? Well, nevermind.

Thank you again and you are welcome. It's easy to support such a sweet, talented person! I luvs you too!!!

*nods* Exactly my point. My art teacher continuously pressures me into taking on further projects and going to Art College, and it's SO damn hard to politely tell someone you dislike where to shove their offers. 'Go forth and fornicate' and 'Sir, you're extracting the urine' just don't quite have the same effect as 'Go fuck yourself' and 'Are you taking the piss?' XD

Oooh, Cherise is being naughty. XD

Cherise75 In reply to MissAnneThropee [2007-01-05 18:54:59 +0000 UTC]

I love your euphemisms, but you are right they definitely don't have the same effect. LOL

I had a big argument with an art student online about a year ago who couldn't grasp that idea. She refused to understand why any person who loved to do art so much wouldn't want to go to college for it and make a living doing it for other people. *sigh* Some people just don't get it and never well.

Ooo, MissAnne likes to play rough! Mmm, I do need a good spanking sometimes.

XD 'Euphemisms', that's the first time I've seen anyone but myself use a decent 4 syllable word on here. Yay for intelligent people! (Wow, I probably sound really obnoxious right now. Not like I care though.)

*laughs* I'm constantly having fights with people who don't understand me. Only a few days ago I argued with a fellow Deviant because she'd wrote a rather offensive journal entry about how Artistic Nudity is all 'shit fucking porn.' *rolls eyes* XD It was one of the most pathetic debates I've been involved in as well. Rather than explain her beliefs to me intellectually, she simply replied with 'I don't give a shit what you think' and 'fuck you's' then deleted the journal. Gave me a good laugh though. Tell me, how could she not care about what I think if she actually deleted the entry? XD

I certainly do. *grins* And I hope you'll be naughty often.

Cherise75 In reply to MissAnneThropee [2007-01-06 18:08:47 +0000 UTC]

'Euphemisms' has 4 syllables? LOL Sorry, I really did end up sitting here counting them. Just the curse of being a pseudo-nerd. LOL

How can someone be so offended by artistic nudity to the point where they feel the need to degrade it that bad. If you don't like it, don't support it but we weren't created with clothing already on, so what's the problem with nudity? It takes a lot of talent and/or confidence to do/be an artistic nude. Besides the human body is a magnificient creation and... um, ... I can go on and on so I'll shut up now. Sorry.

Um, the last line actually made me a little for some reason. *trying to convince myself* I'm not a naughty girl, I'm not a naughty girl Damn, that was useless. LOL

XD You counted? That's SO cute Miss Pseudo-Nerd.

Exactly my arguement...she didn't take it so well though. Okay, so maybe I was in a bad mood that day and came across much more cruel than intended, but I had a lot of valid points damn it!

You cannot resist the power of the dark side! And yes, I did just quote Star Wars. You know, a boy once said that to me when I was on holiday in Orlando. Creeped the hell out of me. That's why I don't hang around the comic-book section of book stores anymore.

Well, sometimes it is good to vent. Too bad she was on the receiving end though. Oh well. Bad timing for her! LOL

Oh my!! Yes, the dark side has soo much more fun! A family friend has a son who is a Star Wars fan and had one of those motion sensored talking toys. I think it said that line when the mom walked in the room in the dark. Scared her half to death. LOL

IMO being a bitch can be a good thing and sometimes quite appropriate.

LOL There are a few Star Wars emoticons here I think but that one was simply "jedi".

Aw, poor baby shivering It's gonna be okay. No more scary comic book geeks popping up in the bookstore. See. *looks around and sees a group of them all with pocket protectors and taped glasses* AHHHHH!!! *screams in terror* Run away!!! Um yes, I was scared.
