Description /screams WHAT IS PAINTING
/also WHAT IS REALISM for that matterย 

So yeah, uh, I first did this as an experiment which then became a birthday picture for Cass which then didn't because I changed the date of his birthday SO. Now this is just some meaningless extra portrait thing ahahaha o)--<

Ahhh thank you so much! ย  Hahaha I sort of gave up on trying to look realistic by the time I got to the hair, so I'm super pleased you like it! :'D โ™ฅ Eeeee

And don't worry, you've done wonderfully with the 'realism.' I can't even get the hang of it until now... TT^TT

Holy damn!
Heh, never noticed it before but Cassair looks a touch like a young Griffith from Beserk. With a bit less hair that is. Hopefully his life ruins less lives than Griffith's did.ย

Ahahaha omg I never noticed either but I CAN SEE THAT NOW. Cass' hair isn't as noble though, yeah, it's just sort of a mess :'D And the answer to that last part is... debatable.

will2bill In reply to number11train [2014-05-02 19:13:00 +0000 UTC]

No one's hair is as noble as Griffith's.
Have you managed to watch or read Beserk yet?ย 
hehehe, yes indeedy.ย

I imagine not. Except maybe Thranduil's, but, well. That's a shampoo ad battle crossover that I have yet to witness.
And gaahhhh I haven'ttt. I definitely have some of the manga around but what would you say is the difference between reading or watching it? :'D Any recommendations?

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

will2bill In reply to number11train [2014-05-04 20:41:24 +0000 UTC]

Ohmygod I want that Shampoo ad so much now.

Alright:
Beserk the anime covers the first arc of the manga. It cuts out a little bit here for time and to remain as a consistent whole (particularly it removes a lot of the magical elements). However, you won't be able to not read the book if you finish the anime. It would be too cruel to yourself.

There is a new Anime which I haven't watched but is VERY shiny. I believe it is doing the whole thing as a series of OVAs but again, haven't watched it yet.ย 
But yeah, shiny:ย img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20โ€ฆ

Then there is the manga which is obviously the whole thing (not complete sadly and the author updates really really slowly) and is basically amazing.
Although you do have to be prepared for some pretty dark stuff. Darker I think that anything we've talked about (but then you've read Claymore yeah and I think it was similar levels to that). I think anyway, my minds drawing a blank on the dark stuff we have talked about.ย

number11train In reply to will2bill [2014-05-09 15:24:47 +0000 UTC]

Ahahaha one can dream /faraway look

And ahhh I've seen bits of the new anime here and there, so very shiny! But yeah, I had a feeling reading the manga would be the best way to go (though I've also heard of the super excruciatingly slow updates and general NOOO when you get up-to-date :'D). And fear not, I am super prepared for dark stuff hahaha I've seen snippets of Berserk around and, you know, heard about it. =ใƒฎ= But true, I'm cool with Claymore and... and... yeah omg what other dark stuff have we both seen. Hellsing? I didn't get to finish that though. Blade of the Immortal and Vinland Saga have their dark/gory moments too, I guess. Uh. Hmm.

*also looks into the far away distance of sparkly hair*although you could totally make those gifs just saying or I guess I could make an AMV

Yeah. The current arc (mostly because of the update 'schedule') is pretty slow anyway so...eh. It's pretty annoying. I think the best way would be to get to a certain very climactic event, and then just stop and leave it till it's finished. I just checked, if you read up to 307 and stop you will be just before the current arc and also a pretty good pause point (slightly frustrating but not too bad) series wise. The current arc takes quite a different tone to the previous so yeah, good temporary stopping point till the series ends. I would recommend that method if/when you do read it.ย 

Ooh you should totally finish Hellsing. It's pretty short by comparison to most of what we read and it's got quite a good ending I think.
Vinland Saga does have some pretty gory stuff but I don't think it gets to the same level as Beserk. Honestly all told I don't think it's too bad, but it was a bit of a shock to the system when I first watched it because I wasn't really used to that from anime. Even the nudity and stuff generally doesn't come across so much as fanservice (well some of it does) but more an actual representation of what would be the case in those situations.
I've been meaning to read Blade of the Immortal. Keep seeing the name around.ย 
It might help that I've gotten a lot more used to gore generally though...

gaaassppp make it makeitmakeit

Ooooh that sounds pretty good, yeah. Up to 307, I gotta remember that. But yeah, the slowness sounds excruciating. :'D At least Hunter x Hunter's latest hiatus came at the end of an arc, it was frikkin painful before that. Actually it's still painful whenever I think about it sob

Yeesss I don't know why I didn't finish Hellsing but I definitely meant to, just gotta find my spot again (or re-read it haha). And I'm pretty sure Berserk is way up on the gory scale but I'm totally prepared for it, it's like... reputed for that. :'D But yeah, probably not the easiest thing to encounter on one's first descent into the messed up glorious world of anime ahaha

But dooooo read Blade of the Immortal sometime. I haven't finished it either (since I caught up at the time and haven't got round to collecting the rest ffff) but it's a most excellent and beautiful seriesss

But amvs are haaaaaaaaard.ย 
Fine, I will add it to my list of like 8 AMVs I have planned. Maybe I should actually start doing those and do something on my youtube channel.ย 

Hunter X Hunter came on Hiatus at a stage where it could have easily been the end of the series which was FREAKING CONFUSING. Man. I want to reread it. Also Yu Yu Hakusho. Just because.

Rereading is not too long at least. And also exciting explosive fun!ย 

Yay. More things to read!
I'm still midway through Jojo's (kind of paused after the third arc for reasons), and still watching and loving Sailor Moon.ย

number11train In reply to will2bill [2014-05-31 15:14:10 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha they do look harrdddd. But yessss, add it to your list anyway!

Oh man, I could reread Yu Yu Hakusho forever. Like seriously. I'd love to reread Hunter x Hunter too but I don't know how often I could do it, I'd be so much of an emotional wreck after it, for so many reasons. :'D

Yayy! And yeessss Jojo and Sailor Moon, I've had to pause on the Jojo anime at the moment though cuz my internet is shot and this prepaid mobile one is expensive as heck. BUT I HAVE SAILOR MOON, I should totally get onto watching that, THERE'S SO MUCH. So much goodness.

will2bill In reply to number11train [2014-06-02 19:38:49 +0000 UTC]

So many lists. So many projects.

So much rereading. Such good fights. I think I need to reread it because I read it on my iphone which is a week puny screen and also some pages were oddly out of order which didn't help at all.ย 
You'd just get to the insect arc and cry. As would I.

Ew expensive internets. Clearly you should move to London. Internet is so cheap out here.ย 
SAILOR MOON IS SOOOO GOOOOOOOOOD! I'm having heaps of fun watching it (though I don't watch much at a time because monster of the day and also subtitles make watching slightly tiresome on the eyes).ย 

Also sorry to hear you won't be living with your sister anymore *sympathy waves*

number11train In reply to will2bill [2014-06-05 14:45:41 +0000 UTC]

So many. What is time.

Hnng yeessss you need to reread it on the big shiny badass screen of your computerrr. But god yes, I'd hit the York Shin arc and scream out windows. Then the Chimera Ant arc and sob endlessly into the night.

IS IT REALLY? I WANT CHEAP INTERNET dammit. I hear the booze in London's cheaper too, why am I still in Australia

AND OMG YEEESSS I've finally started rewatching Sailor Moon now as well and it makes me SO FRIKKIN HAPPY. I GRIN SO MUCH WHENEVER TUXEDO MASK APPEARS, GOD DAMN HIS RIDICULOUS PERFECTION. Hahaha I agree though, need to watch it bit by bit cuz of the monster-of-the-week syndrome :'D Still, I'm so excited to finally go through it all properly, the fragmented dubbed memories of my childhood will finally be patched up.

And ahh you saw her journal :') Thank youu. โ™ฅ Yeahh lots has been going on for the past month or two, I'm still in Karratha (probably for another year) but I've moved to a little 1x1 rental unit. It's alright, really, but my god I need my proper internet back.

An inconvenience to be surpassed.

(or my tablet more likely). IT UPDATED THOUGH!!!! Admittedly only one really exciting thing happened but still HUNTER X HUNTER UPDATES OMG. Can't wait for more.

As far as I can tell the only thing that is cheaper in Australia is wine. Everything else is equally or more expensive. Which is awesome while here but makes me more annoyed at Perth.
Clearly you should move here.

I like that we rewatch the original ancient animation before the super fancy animation comes out. Like smart people. But really though, so damn good.ย 

It certainly sounds eventful. So is your family not going to be there any more (as well as your sister?) Or were you living in your own place away from them anyway? But yeah, you desperately need internet. Stat. I hope at least your non internetty hours have been productive.ย
