Some interesting images

The first up is this picture of an Aye Aye Lemur baby. Search Aye Aye Lemur and it's all that comes up really. So for a little while I had a warped view thinking theyd all lost their hair and the looked like wierd  batty gollum monsters. Certainly a unique animal. It's the one that taps on trees with its long boney fingers to find bugs.


Next is this image done by an artist who modernised old retro games like Sonic, Mario and Megaman into fresh new colourful pieces. Of course these kind of things could be remade to look like this nowadays. I suppose it's the nostalgia and then seeing everything in a brand new lease of life.


Presumeably this picture was done in biro alone and it really goes to show the scale of how big Giratina is compared to the Trainer. The moon being the main draw and seeing a collosus in front of it, then it's giant wings and leading down its body to the dead trees really brings in a haunted atmosphere.


And this, I think, is a character from fighting game Blazblue. I like the design as she has the big hood, hidden face and massive hand image going on. Alot like Vivi in FFIX. The constrast between her dark face and bright clothing makes me wonder just what kind of character she is.


Current WIPs

I thought I'd post these up too just to have a record of my summer progress.

First is my Azure Kite/ Lucario All star cosplay for a Game Artisans mini comp

Second is my entry for Comic-con: the Phantom Stranger. Due to going away for a week I couldn't finish it before the deadline so I'll be sure to finish it now that I have more time and make it look better than if I'd rushed

We don't call it Summer

We call it the Rainy Season. Yes its an old photo but I wanted to post it up. I want it to rain again now. Or at least have the swimming pool open again >:(


DS Style models

Recently I've been making some Low poly models after I found people had ripped a model of the GTS from Pokemon and the Link model from Phantom Hourglass.

The first one is a Highwayman which i think i was subconciously inspired by the guys Gambit Comicon entry.

And this one is the Pokemon Typhlosion inspired by the news that Gold and Silver will be remade.

But this is it for the DS models. After this I'll finish the Phantom Stranger and another model hopefully by the time Uni starts again
