Luis Royo: Dead Moon

Hi!! Chibis!! Did you like the last blog? Sure it was a nice change of pace from the usual chibi blogs. Well, onto other important Royos. This one has some selective 5 star worthy pictures from the Dead Moon Collection of Royo. The Dead Moon Concept is based of one of those traditional Chinese tragedies. Basically, there are two warring tribes Mars and Moon. The two champions from Mars and Moon meet in an epic clash. They say that ninjas' and Samurais can communicate through their weapons. After the battle ended, both the Mars Champion (champion as in top fighter not as in a champion knight or Champion Champion) and the Moon Champion fell in love with one another. Their bodies combine into one. The End...

Luis Royo: Dark Labyrinth

I know that some of you have become nostalgic about Luis Royo. He is the most prolific contemporary dark fantasy artist. His artworks has inspired many Heavy Metal bands. He has also revolutionized our perception of what a dark fantasy artwork is all about. Today, I am mostly gonna focus on Luis Royo Dark Labyrinth collection. In his Dark Labyrinth, Royo taps into our darkest dreams, our darkest fantasies he brings to life. Here we see all the goons and monsters from our nightmares. So, sit back and enjoy the show.

Nekomimi Chibi Pics that are 5 star Worthy

Eh...! Sorry for the bloody anime wallpapers. I hope they did not frighten you. I expected that since most of you folks are from the US, that you would have a high toleration for blood and gore. After all, this is the birth place of horror films.

In any case, here are a lot of cute chibis. The first one is Patchioli Knowledge and the second one is the Scarlet Devil. Both are in their nekomimi form. In front of them, the viewer is holding a bit of catnip. Catnip makes cats crazy. In any case, this anime wallpaper is 5 star worthy.

Original Tukiji Nao Anime Wallpapers

This is my last Tukiji Nao blog (for now). These are some of Tukiji Nao's original work. All the characters are of his creation and his alone. The whole bulk of his work are original art pieces. Most mangaka artist stay in the popular medium. It is very hard to sell one's own original work without leaching off popular anime works. It is for this reason that all mangaka artist have at least one death note or one vocaloid anime wallpaper.

Tukiji Nao's Pop Culture Anime Wallpapers

Hi!! Chibis, did you sleep well? I had such sweet dreams today...Today I am gonna blog about Tukiji Nao's movie and books anime wallpaper. These are the last anime wallpapers of Tukiji Nao that I could fung Shuei in a thematic format. The first pictures are from the classical Alice in Wonderland book.

Much ado about Tukiji Nao (About Ten Pics)

So yeah, another Tukiji Nao Blog. There is still two more to get done before we move onto other business. Do you dig these anime wallpapers? I like em'... Anyhow, here we see a lovely Card Captor Sakura Anime picture. Sakura always wore a lot of pretty costume in her quest to capture the Clow Cards. Behind her we can see Li. Both were rivals and best pals in this similar card capturing business. Her attire is quite pretty and original. What I like best are her shoes. They are so flamboyant and pretty. This lovely anime wallpaper is 5 star worthy.

Tukiji Nao 5 Star Worthy Final Fantasy Anime Wallpapers

My dear chibis today I am gonna write to you about Tukiji Nao. He is the last mangaka artist that draws 100% by hand. His style is quite lovely and pretty. What I like best is how pretty the eyes and jewels come out. He has a way of giving a certain special glow to everything.

I wanted to start with something simple to get you into a Tukiji Nao kinda mood. So I decided to focus on Tukiji Nao's Final Fantasy artwork. Final Fantasy is my favorite game series. The first piece shows the two main girls of Final Fantasy Seven. On the left, we see Aeris Gainsborough. She is the daughter of professor Gast and the last ancient Ifalna. The irony of her story is that Gast last mistake (or Sephiroth) was the object of her demise. She was the girlfriend of Zack and would have stayed with him had Shinra not slain him for escaping from the Sephiroth cloning lab. All her life revolved around Sephiroth in one way or another. Heck, she ended up dating Sephiroth's defective clone. In any case, here we see Aeris in the way we know and love her. She has flowers all around her. Nature seems to grow around her. This goes well with her original Cetra or Ancient powers.

20 Newest Genzoman Anime Wallpapers

Hi!!!Chibis! How you been? Did you have sweet dreams? Did you eat right? So yeah, another Genzoman blog. He is truly the most prolific anime artist in our neck of the woods. His Japanese equivalent are Kantoko, Mikeou and Tony Taka. Well, this is a Genzo blog so onto his work. As I said before his art style is a hybrid of anime and marvel. He is fluid and has enough imagination to come up with some amassing artwork. This blog will focus on his latest work. So sit back and enjoy the ride.

Touhou and Anime Mangaka Artist Caidychen

So, yeah, after the llama blog I wanted to get back on discussing about Caindychen. Today, I am gonna focus on Caidychen's touhou work. Almost all mangaka artist have a truckload of touhou fanart. The majority of KD's artwork are Reimu Hakurei anime wallpapers. In any case, here are the rest of KD's touhou girls.

Much Ado about the "Dali" Llama

I bet you thought I was gonna write to you about the spiritual leader of Tibet. But no... I am writing about llamas. I wanted to write about Tibetan llamas but its too bad that llamas are endemic to South America. Oh well, the joke is spoiled. In any case, I am gonna stuff you full of llamas.

Ron Mueck Part 3

Hi, folks!! Today is my last Mueck blog (until further notice). As usual, I left the best for last. So sit back and enjoy the ride (or at least pretend to be interested). So yeah, we all love looking at babies. For that reason, I decided to begin with this cute lil baby sculpture. Like kittens, a lot of babies are born with blue eyes. Later on the dominant brown and black eyes become the phenotype. As you noticed this cute baby is looking at a random something or other. His gaze is meant to engage the onlookers. In any case, Mueck's lil baby is 5 star worthy.

Much ado About Ron Mueck Part 2

Ah... my chibis, today is such a wonderful day. I wanna eat cookies!!! Which brings me to my next point : Ron Mueck. This blog has another truck load of Mueck Sculptures. If you liked the first Mueck blog then stick around to watch some more.

Death Note Second Opening "Whats Up, People?"

Death Note has become a classic in the Anime World. It has been translated into more than 20 languages. Its Hobbes philosophy has spread among the young anime otakus. It critiques violent Inquisition like actions to get rid of the evil in society. As L states, the good guys always win in the end. "Whats, Up People?", speaks about criminals. It acknowledges the sad fact of life that criminals will always exist. Even injustice can arise among those pursue bad guys. As Light Yagami, these enforcers of the law have the potential to become the thing they hate the most. This song describes Death Note pretty well. Maximum the Hormone, did a brilliant job arranging and composing this song.

"Manga motion Comic : The first Mission : Frank Tirofijo, a dangerous new villein appears" That is 5 Star Worthy

So yeah, I kept wondering around youtube and found this lil number. It is a manga motion comic. I seen professional versions of motion comic but none are as hilarious as this one. The voice of the anime characters where made by the artists who drew the comic. They used an interesting editor program called VEGAS. This is the video program that professionals use. From what I know of the artist, this is a promotional stunt to get the graphic novel exposure before publishing it.

In any case, this chapter chronicles the death of the furies' Harpies. During Kida's God tournament, her harpies inform her of the existence of Franko Tirofijo. Franko is a terribly deadly sharp shooter who shoots any person that steps in his way. The furies' harpies where summoned because Franko shot an old hag who laughed at him. This is just the gist of the storyline that is covered inside this motion comic. If you are into guns, monsters and harpies then this is a must see motion comic. For their comical effort The Power Project: The Furies - The First Mission deserves 5 star rating.

"Its a Pikachu Cubone Animation Speed Drawing" Tutorial that is 5 Star Worthy

While I was roaming around youtube looking for 5 star worthy videos I ran into this lil tutorial. It is useful because of its simplicity. It shows step by step process on how to color and animate a pikachu using scary face on cubone line art. This tutorial shows that one only needs two line arts developed in order to create a pretty decent trigger gif. Trigger gifs are gif that only show the second image when your mouse hovers over it. It is pretty useful for making your site fun without having too many html calls (that slow down your site).

So if you are an anime site owner and want to make something cute to humor your members this tutorial is quite useful. One does not need too many photo shop and drawing skills to get good results. Just follow the step by step process in the above video and watch the magic work. From what I heard, this trigger gif was made for the social media reddit.com/r/pokemon. In any case, this cute anime tutorial is 5 star worthy.

Guilty Crown Opening: "My Dearest" sang by Supercell Band

So yeah, today I wanted to bring to you attention this awesome opening song from Guilty Crown. Guilty Crown is a new anime show from Funimation. It is of the Code Geass protest against US occupation variety (these kinds of anime shows are far more common that you can imagine) . This song was sang this new band called Supercell. They wrote and compose all the songs for the fictional Egoist Band. The opening song goes well with the anime show. Basically, Inori is giving her hearth to Shuu for him to use as a weapon to fight the occupation forces in Japan. Thus, this sword is everything that makes Inori whole. " My Dearest " is 5 star worthy because it goes well with the plot of the anime show. If you are interested the opening song is above. Bellow are the English lyrics. Hope you folks like a lot.

A Hatsune Miku Scary Halloween
