Thanks ^^
You have too cute userpage ^^

Quote by kaisui1tatsuDo you care if I add you to my watch list? I would love to have notifications of your vectors! ^_^


I would be very happy if you would do this =D

Quote by kaisui1tatsuThis is a very pretty wall! I love how peaceful it is and the landscape is great. Awesome work!

Quote by kaisui1tatsuThis is pretty good! However, it kinda looks like she is holding her own hand. I know that you didn't intend for it to look that way, and hey, hands can be really hard! If you just make the line underneath her ring finger more horizontal and the line inbetween the middle and index finger closer to her thumb it would be a lot better. Other than that, this is perfect. ^_^ Thanks for sharing it with us!

I couldn't help it. >_< Though I think the little rings were the problem, but the thumb and index I think were the same. I think I should rescan the magazine to show you the difference. :D

Well it's alright and thank you for your comment. :)

lol, you could just erase and re-outline. YOu could also just put all of the fingers together. . .
Oh, and I first saw the thumbnail in Pink Princess, and there is a hover over image that blurrs it. My first thought was, who would submitt a vector with a blur filter? no one will be able to wall it at all. . . Then I realized it was a hover over code. lol!

I really want to do that, but I'm not very good when it comes to drawing lineart. ^_^'

Let's see blur filter can really mess up outlines. @_@ Except for shades because it looks awesome. >:D

If only I scanned my magazine maybe the vector could've been better.

Well nice talking to you! ;)

Quote by kaisui1tatsuYou need to stop submitting scans from www.kawaiidream.net. If you look under the FAQ in the support section you will find a list of sites that Minitokyo doesn't accept scans from. KAZ has a very distinctive quality and is easily recognized.

Oh...but ive seen so many kawaii dreams scans on MT
Especially under the Resident Evil 4 Category almost all the scans are from Kawaii Dreams

I bet scanning a poster type image was difficult. . . .lol

It's surprisingly easier than doing the double-page spreadinsde the book. The way the poster lies flat makes it so much easier. After that, it's just fixing the whole thing in place :)

Quote by kaisui1tatsuThis is very nice! I love all of the color and detail that you put into this!
Sorry to hear about your account being hacked. . .that really sucks. At least you still have the files though! ^_^

Thank your for your nice comment =D
I am glad you like it.
Yeha I am also glad I did not have deleted the images. I think I would become mad if I would not have a copy from my works.

Hmm, I can only think of two things that you could have done if you deleted the files: you can do an image search for all of the images in your computer, or you can ask other people on MT if they have copies of your submissions. When you use search to find all of the images in your computer, you even get little icon images as well, so if there is a copy you don't know about in your computer, the search will find it. Ah well, at least you don't have to do either! lol


Thanks for your Ideas. I will think remind them if something like this will ever happen again. It was more luck than anythink else because I just made a copy from them the day before yesterday..

You are welcome, kaisui1tatsu. Keep up the good work! :)

Quote by kaisui1tatsuAwesome! You could always host the scans somewhere else like imageshack and link them to your page. That is what I had to do here. http://ffvv.minitokyo.net. MT doesn't accept scans from KAZ, so I just linked them on the page for people to use. You could link them to your userpage if you wanted to.^_^

I didn't keep it. I deleted it about four months ago because I was trying to clear space on my hard drive for some very large torrents I was wanting to download, and I didn't really want the image anymore anyway. I'm just not such a fan of Ashe that I would want to keep such a huge file of her :( I'm sorry.

Quote by kaisui1tatsuThis is nice scan! I don't know how you got the resolution so high without getting a lot of dots. Thanks so much for sharing it with us!

Thanks for your nice comment :)

It's scanned with 400dpi and sized down because of the maximum file size (2048 KB). But I think there are better scans because my scanner is not the best.

Hmm, I thought that 200 was good. I am scanning a art book, but I think that I am going to rescan some of them at a larger resolution, but I am just afraid that they might be too rough looking.

Well, sometimes I need to do some cleaning and a little blur with Photoshop. But I think it's better to scan in a higher resolution because if you size it down it looks much better as scanned in 200dpi. Most of my scans are sized down here because of the file size.

Quote by kaisui1tatsuAhhh! This is like an insane huge scan! Where did you get such good scans from? Especially if you had to downsize it.

Unfortunately I've had it for so long I don't remember where I got it from, but it was probably either one of the many image boards out there or a torrent. The original resolution was 5674x8000 and over 6 MB, so yes, it was far too large to submit as it was. I miss MT's old 5 MB file size limit :(

Quote by kaisui1tatsuI have only seen a few of the anime episodes on youtube, but I did enjoy the comicalness of it. I can understand that each episode is its own little story, so I agree with you. I think that this anime is a pretty good break from more serious animes if you need one. I think that the movie is also a long version of the episode, but the end of it ties into the tsubasa chronical movie, so that is a neat thing to watch out for. You have a pretty nice review here. Thanks so much for taking the time to write it for us1 ^_^


Thanks for the comment on my xxxHOLiC review. ^^

And I've heard that xxxHOLiC kind of connects it with Tsubasa Chronicle but I haven't seen it yet so I can say much. From the little I know, though, I haven't seen any connections (probably due to that reason). Just that the characters in xxxHOLiC show up in Tsubasa Chronicle as well.

Hi Kaisu-chan ^_^. I was away last week for an anime convention, so that's why I haven't replied. It's was a lot of fun, and I even wrote up a whole report on my site. You can check it out, if you're curious, right here, and there are pics too :D.

Quote by kaisui1tatsuThanks so much for the awesome comment! Sadly I don't have the orginal anymore, but I do still have the photograph, so if I need to I could try scanning it again. I think that her right arm is just brusing back her hair. . .lol
I don't really have any paintings that are better than this, but I am working on Paine's poster right now. Well, I haven't touched it in a while, but I plan too soon. I haven't really painted anything lately, not in oil anyways, so I think that I should just do a pratice painting before I continue on Paine so that I don't mess her up. When I am done with Paine I will also paint Yuna's poster so it is a complete series. Yay! ^_^

Very nice! I look forward to seeing those. When your next painting is finished I'd be more than happy to answer any questions you might have about photographing it to get a good quality shot. Though you probably already know most of the tricks :P. How far along is the painting?

Quote: Thanks for this comment as well! This one wasn't really a planned peice like Rikku was. I agree that some shoulders would help, I also think that the eye is too close to the bridge of the nose. . .but that may just be me. Before I continue with Paine, I may just redo this one in oil. . .I think that it would be pretty neat to do it in a different color scheme as well. ^_^ yay for ideas!

Glad I could help XD. Doing this piece might be a good warm up before finishing your other piece as well, on account of it being a bit less detailed.

Let me know how things turn out. Also, I don't know if you heard, but I managed to sell that painting I did already (Infidelity). After that I had to do another piece for that gallery in a very limited time frame. But I did get it finished, and it's up on MT here. Your feedback is always welcome :D.

Take care ^_^...

Hello There Kaisiui,
I wanted to pop around and thank you for commenting on my guest book. I really enjoyed my visit to your Group. As it were, I'm presently not a member of any MT group. It's mostly due to time restraints that keep me away. My general movement can sometimes be unpredictable and I'd hate to be a dead weight while I'm gone especially if I'd like to enthusiastically contribute to the group if it's based on something I enjoy as much as the other members.
Thus, many thanks for that warm invitation. Of course, I should like very much to pay your group a visit and leave a little message in your guest book every now and then when I'm around. And when situations change, I'd be all too happy to hit that join button. Meanwhile, if I produce a Valentine work, I'm happy to have you be the first to know about it!
Meanwhile, however, I'd like to invite you to my own gallery when you have the time. Have a look around, leave your mark on pieces you enjoy most. I'd be all too pleased to hear from you! ^__^
All The Warmest,
UV

Quote by kaisui1tatsuIt is pretty good. You have a really nice idea. However, her arm seems too stiff, and her leg is too far up. You need to try to imaging where the leg is under the dress and where you actually start seeing it. Other than that, I think that this is fine. Great start on this type of work though!

Thx for pointing those out! i tend to hv probs w/ anatomy most of the time. Din see that one. actually I was worried more that the leg is seen at a wrong angle. Lol. But fixing that will take longer so I decided to skip it. Thx loads for the comment! :D

r q g

Quote by kaisui1tatsulol, yea, I meant the elite gallery, it is all kinda the same to me. . .lol
And setting up a lot of stuff for a really, really nice photo can get to be too much. lol! I just use my digital camera. It does a pretty decent job, but it has to have a focal point or the camera will take a picture of something out of focus. So I always have to wait for the little green box to show up. . .oh well. It is 7.1 megapixels though, so I usually get really nice big photos! yay!
And yea, that is true about thumnails. . .sometimes they even have a pixelized look. . .Yours looked pretty good as a thumbnail though. ^_^

Hiya Kaisu-chan ^_^. Thank you for the reply, and compliments ^_^.

My personal compact digicam is 5mgp, but we have one at the gallery that's either 8 or 10 (can't recall right now). That's the one we use for the gallery's website, not that it matter for our site there since the images are pretty small.

You are right though, since the thumbnails are created by MT, they can get distorted in terms of color. It's particularly noticeable with vectors that have large areas of solid color (like my Curly Brace wall).

Take care ^_^....

r q g

Quote by kaisui1tatsuNeat-o! I really like thier poses. And the vectors of these scans makes them so much easier to wall! yay! Oh and great disription. I love the 'not to difficult' part. lol! Thanks for sharing!

hi kaisui1tatsu! XD
hahahs... i liked their poses too
that's why i vectored them XD

I always find it a great compliment that someone wants to add me to their watchlist. Just please don't spam my notificatiosn by adding everything to your favourites ^_^' Sorry you missed the Sacred Saga as they were coming out, but I can promise that they're not going anywhere and can be found easilly in either the St Seiiya or Future Studio categories :)

Quote by mentisWell, how can I not fav something from my favorite artist? I can't XD. Thank you for sharing this with me, as I don't believe I've seen it yet. What artbook is it from?

Thanks so much for the comment and fav! I am so glad that you liked it! ^_^
The full title of the art book is Yoahitoshi ABe Lain Illustrations ab# rebuild an omnipresence in wired. I still have alot more scans to submitt, but some of the images don't fit together perfectly, so I am going to have to fix them up a little bit. More stuff to do in the summer I suppose. . .^_^

Indeed, I do have that one as well. I just didn't remember that image in there so I had to check, and there it was towards the end ^_^. I'll be looking forward to those additional scans you're going to upload. Take care...

Quote by kaisui1tatsuYep! I de-spined the book so I could get the scans, but I don't have any protetion sleeves that are the right size for it. Do you know of any sites or stores that have a variety of protector sleeves?

Indeed I do. I have always been a fan of the Itoya ART Portfolios for my storage needs, and they are also archival. Best thing though, is that they are pretty cheap too! So you get good quality for a great price (and no I don't work for them XD).

They may be available at your local Micheal's or AC Moore (big chain stores), but you can also get them in just about every local art supply store.

If you'd rather shop online, you can get them from the Dick Blick (art supply dealer) website here... http://www.dickblick.com/zz150/19/

So they are pretty easy to get. I don't know that you'll find a better solution anywhere else :D.

Quote by kaisui1tatsuIt is pretty good! I kinda wish that there was more skin tones, but that is how anime is! lol
I really like how you did the hair, it does have a feathery look. I also really like the black lines that you added over softer lines, like the tear, and the hair. You can see how controlled the paint is.
The only thing that I think could use a bit more work is the eye, but everything else is great!

Hiya Kaisu-chan ^_^. Thank you very much for taking the time to comment! I really appreciate it :D.

And thank you so much for the compliments. I know it's not perfect, and I'm not sure that they ever are. But that's okay ^_^. That's kind of part of my style, especially when I add the black lines at the end I don't worry if they are right on. It lends the piece an element of spontaneity I think. Yes, the eye could be a bit better, but at this point it's done and I'm not going to worry about it. I try not to dwell on the details too much, and just keep going with a piece. After all, I can always improve with the next painting ^_^.

So, thank you again. I only wish that you could see it in person. It's much better that way of course. I will update the image with a higher quality photo when I have time, and probably after the show it went to is over.

Take care!

Quote by kaisui1tatsuYour welcome! And congrats on the highlighting of it. It is hard to get a really nice photo of a painting. . .you always have to have really nice lighting. I think one of the best sources is sunlight on a overcast type of day because you do get really bright light, but there is not any glare because the sun is behind the shadows.
I think that I have at least two pictures of paintings in my gallery. I didn't have a digital image of Rikku, so that submission is actually a scan of the photo. lol, either way it works! I kinda wish that my paintings would get higlighted as well. . . . but I guess no one really sees them. . . .*sigh*
Well, I will look forward to seeing more of your art work! I hope that you summer is going great so far!

Thank you again. But I don't believe it was highlighted ...? I checked the highlighted gallery and didn't see it on the first five pages. However, I did notice that it is in the elite gallery now, so is that perhaps what you meant...? If it was highlighted though, maybe you can give me a link to where you saw it ^_^.

Indeed, I am familiar with using natural light on an overcast day and I agree on that point. Unfortunately I was pressed for time and had to make due. I have a decent camera as well, but it's not the highest quality for this purpose. Though I do get 5mp on it, it's still a compact. So when I get the piece back after the show, I intend to borrow my friends pro camera to get a really nice shot of it. If I wanted to get it perfect though, I'd probably use a triangular light-source setup using Tungsten bulbs, but that's getting more technical and may not be necessary :P.

I didn't realize you had paintings in your gallery as well, so I'll have to go back and look for those ^_^. Don't worry if people don't look at your paintings though. Mine don't get that much attention either :P. I think people on MT in general prefer the digital pieces, mostly because you really have to download the full version to begin to appreciate a painted submission. They do not often look very interesting as a thumbnail image, and that's what a lot of people go by.

I'll write again after I have had a chance to look at some more of your work. Till then, take care ^_^...

You are welcome. :) And thanks for inviting me to your group but I don't join any groups...

Quote by kaisui1tatsu Why don't you? :o I have never met anyone who just didn't join groups at all. . . . .lol


You have met me. ;) The reason is: I already spent hours for this site. Scanning and downloading new scans cost me hours. If I would join groups then I wouldn't be able to leave the PC. Or I would not visit the sites of the groups and then there is no meaning joining them. ^_^'

Hm. I thought MSN is smarter and it sends invitations in proper language. But yes, I sent you such email ^^. It is just I like to chat with people in real time. Since I just hate waiting, it can be sometimes irritating, waiting for the reply in guestbooik ;).
About the games. No, I haven't heard about DoC online. Lemme know if you find it. And I didn't knew about that conversions site either. If you can, please give me link to it. Thanks in advance.

Quote by kaisui1tatsuHiya! Thank so much for the Sacred Saga scans! Or Saint Seiya, I don't know a whole lot about the series, I just really like the art. Are you going to scan more from the book? It would be nice to have one of your scans of Pandora. I have a smaller one that I am walling, but a larger one would be nice. I didn't remember seeing one for Pandora. I know that there are tons and tons of different characters. . .well, thanks again!

I've scanned both books and have already submitted the najority from them... and yes, Pandora is one I'll be submitting in a day or two (it's finding the time more than anything else ^_^' )
