Description And idea I kinda like to play around with. Creatures that can act as guardians or guides, starting out small, then being capable of growing to the size of buildings.

I like the evolutions of the upper one, but I like the interaction the bottom one has with his girl.

EDIT: The more I look at it, the rougher it is. Definitely will be building and making better versions of this. ;w;

No matter how big the guardian gets, the girl will always see him as his former tiny/adorable self. How does one acquire a guardian, is it like Digimon/Pokemon with eggs? What is their typical lifespan and if their human partner dies, what happens?
Sorry, I have a lot of questions.

I was honstly kinda thinking them as djinns as well, though I'm not sure I'd go that route. If I did, they would be appointed to their owner. I might also go with eggs, though I'm kinda not sure.

They live an incredibly long time. If their owner dies, nothing happens to them, they must choose what they do next with their lives, be it grieving, finding someone new, or making a new life in the wild.

I remember seeing a creature someone had made that when their owner dies, they become very grouchy and easily angered that's why. It's actually something I see a lot of so it's nice to see a change of pace. I think the appointed method seems better. The "receiving eggs" method appears to be becoming more common, IMO.

Yeah, I was kinda thinking appointed was better, too.

I mean, I'd be grouchy and angry if my owner died, but all the time because I lost some kind of connection with them? ... not sure. I just think it'd be more natural for them to try to live their own life, however that may be.

So much angst. Pinkie and the Brain got nowhere with angst. Just imagine how short those episodes would be if they just sat around and were grouchy and reflecting on life and death and questioning the meaning of everything.

I honestly never watched too much of Pinkie and the Brain...or Animaniacs....I was a special child. Who surrounded herself with Japanese stuff. And Ed,Edd, and Eddy. And Disney/Dreamworks. And other stuff.

Not much wrong with that. I remember when I had fun with anime. Now I've become swept up in the sound quality, animation quality, and writing.

I'm disappointed that Disney doesn't seem to do a lot of animation, nowadays. I feel like it's just me, but they really don't seem to do all that much with it anymore.

SpottedAlienMonster In reply to Blue-Hybrid [2013-06-24 01:24:00 +0000 UTC]

It just makes me bitter, what with how ignorant people can be of animation. And a Pac-man tv show isn't really helping.

I watched the first episode of it and it was ... not something I'm into at all. I liked the quality of the models and backgrounds, but other than that ... WHY ARE THEY MAKING A SHOW OUT OF PAC-MAN?

Blue-Hybrid In reply to SpottedAlienMonster [2013-06-24 01:39:55 +0000 UTC]

Because they want to make of a remake of the Pac Man video game; Namco needs the money. I didn't last more than 2 minutes watching the sneak-peak. It was 5 min long.

SpottedAlienMonster In reply to Blue-Hybrid [2013-06-24 01:46:36 +0000 UTC]

I couldn't stand the writing or the characters. It was all stuff I've seen lots of times before, only this time with something some kinda wonky design scheme starring Pac-man.

And for some reason it reminds me of the Megaman anime they ran earlier this decade (Battle Network). I remember enjoying that one more, and quite frankly I want to see something more like that. You know. Starring humans and not some weird ... circle people. Ugh, Namco.

Though now I really want to make something 3D animated. I just need to learn modeling. And rigging. And textures. *sigh*

I tried working with 3d stuff. I didn't last a day before I lost interest. Plus, I've been planning to rewatch Magaman NT. I'll get to it. Eventually.

With 3D, I get the feeling that I'll have to approach it with wanting to play with it before I can have an image in my head an put it down.

Dang, now Megaman NT does sound really good.

SpottedAlienMonster In reply to Blue-Hybrid [2013-06-24 17:30:09 +0000 UTC]

That's right, I need to finish my next playthrough! I also need to finish the Sly Collection, Valkyria Chronicles, Shadow of the Colossus, Darksiders, Demon's Souls, Kingdoms of Amalur, Borderlands 2, LoZ: Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Dark Souls, and ... yeah, I have a list. Well, now I know what to beat before I get my next game!

It'll be Demon's Souls that gives me the massive amounts of trouble. You really need to dive into that game, and I'm terrible at it but I love it.

I love LOZ: Ocarina of Time, it's currently my top LOZ game. Though so far Twilight Princess looks a little interesting. I need to learn how to ignore the people around me, I tend to screw up more after they notice that I made a mistake.

SpottedAlienMonster In reply to Blue-Hybrid [2013-06-24 17:43:11 +0000 UTC]

I probably would appreciate Ocarina more if I had played it when it came out. I'm kinda getting annoyed with how the camera controls, but that's kinda my biggest issue right now.

Honestly, I think Twilight Princess was my favorite Zelda game. But graphical improvements and the ability to swim underwater kinda work into why I like it so much. Plus, you have a wolf form.

Are people looking over your shoulder? Hrm ... it always does make it harder for me to draw whenever someone has a criticism about something, even if I fully intended for it to look as such (the head is supposed to be that small >:[ )

Ha, that IS a common comment I see on your artwork. You'd think by now they'd know it's supposed to be that way.
Twilight Princess is on the Wii for me, so I need to play it in my living room. The Xbox has taken my other TV. (the xbox is not mine) Yay for large families. I think it's ironic how you hate the camera controls in OOT, I like aiming with my 3ds; it makes me feel like I'm in the game. Plus the graphics were updated, the originals are a little weird...

SpottedAlienMonster In reply to Blue-Hybrid [2013-06-25 00:13:26 +0000 UTC]

Well, I'm playing OoT on the GameCube (I don't have a 3DS yet) so I'm used to the C-Stick being the camera. However, for the remasters, item select is on the C-stick. So every time I want to get the camera back behind me, I have to remember the old L trick and not go for the C-Stick, which is kinda frustrating.

I'm lucky enough that we have a TV we didn't really use. I'm able to use it as a monitor (it has a PC converter) and I can hook up my PS3 or GameCube as well.

I played Twilight Princess on the GameCube. I don't know how the Wii version is controlled, really. I usually use my cousin's 360 if I want to play Halo, and even then we've both kinda stopped using it. My cousin's actually gone more towards PC, and I may also start using PC for games, too, on the side of Sony and Nintendo.

I swear, sometimes I just want to upload a quick sketch that I don't want to put up at all, but it's got "correct" proportions and it'll please a lot of people. *le sigh*

What I mean is I didn't know that you make some creatures that fit in the palm of your hand. Usually, you make some creatures that would put Godzilla, King Ghidorah, and Cthulhu to shame in the size chart.
