Here's something for Bleach fans. Sets made for Moshi, she wears only Rukia.


( See more of Rukia )

I've shown sets made for Keii so it's time to show other sets made for one person, today for Mommy :D



( See Mommy's sets )

I was asked few days ago to make set with Res from Crimson Shell. I was given few scans from manga, and since I enjoy colouring I finished it in few hours. I started with avatar and then I made signature. I'm really proud of it cause I tried new way of doing things in PS and I'm quite satisfied with the effect. Some people tell me I should start with bigger ones, but I'm not confident enough. I still need practice with small little things like these. I don't know exactly the character and I don't have any idea whether he has right colours. I planned to make him similar to the person I was making it for - Keii. But while working I decided that brown eyes would be too much and changed it to light blue.  I know he doesn't like brown colours... I'm sorry for the choice, but when I'm given only black lines I tend not to think about others' preferences but I forget myself and do it to suit my tastes... Well I prepared changed version since the text wasn't appreciated too.


( See new Res set )


If I put this set why don't put others I made for him? They would be in one place and will save me saying over and over again for whom they were made. For avatars I will make another entry, there are too many...



( See other Keii sets )

I tried to manage somehow my profile, but it's hard, I'm angry and disappointed in myself. I didn't finish layout, and my emotion icons are driving me crazy (even though I made them quite quick).


( For now enjoy few icons and sets from Pandora Hearts )

Oh my, I haven't shown myself here for so long. Many things changed, many new thing were born, but my love for Photoshop hasn't changed at all. Firstly they accepted my first wallpaper on AP more than year ago, and since then I made 10 of them. I also started to make vexels. And for the little things I now prefer much more to make avatars and matching signatures rather than make avatars only. I want to present each and every one of them but I guess it would take too much time to do this so I will show them slowly step by step. I will try to do this today or tomorrow.

I didn't plan to write anything today. But I fell in love with Tamaki you can see on the left side and I had to. I hate writing things like that, you know this so-called "happy new year". I had good time even though no one wished me that. It all depends on myself. I don't like it. Maybe the reason is that I have as my only company my dog and myself ? Not that it's bad company... I can be happy just with that. But it still pisses me off...


But the most annoying thing are these #@$%&... kids who are trying to burn everything (including themselves) using fireworks. Every year I pray (but since I have a dog I'm much more aggressive and dangerous) that they will blow up their hands or something and it will end... But I'm in that kind of mood only before new year, tomorrow I won't remember about it.


So to end happily the most strange year of my life (you know, now come to think about it... why am I writing in english ? "Consuetudo alter natura est", ka ? First funny thing today, so the last day of the year when I became an adult won't be a waste afterall. I'm sort of angry and cause of that veeeery sarcastic and cynical. Though it happens very often that I'm disscusing with myself inside.. it's not rare for me to feel this way. Some people says that that's why they like my sense of humour. To be honest it's not sense of humour but realistic point of view. Well, whatever, I said earlier that I'm not in the best mood.) I present some of my work:


Another wallpaper from Ouran with immortal roses (I'm kind of obssesed with them, I mean look how often I'm using Ouran's roses... And I don't do it on purpose they just suit my ideas, that's all... So it in the end proves that I'm really obssesed.) Third one that wasn't accepted on animepaper. I'm determined more than Tamaki and I will probably learn how to vector to get my beloved scans (though I found another place where I got a lot of beautiful things and I'm happy, even if I wasted about 6 hours of my life to download them). I love red colour, I love their pose here. It wonderfully shows character of every one of them !!! And I love their legs here ! Don't ask why, I just like intense black and red (they are my favourite colours) and Honey's leg !! I love it. Although I don't like Honey in a special way (so loving his left leg is not liking him in a "special" way...?). And we have different taste... definietly... I can't sympatise with someone who likes pink, eating cakes and ! And Usa-chans !!! (not eating, carrying).


I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to write even one sentence but apparently I'm writing and writing and... When I'm in cynical mode I tend to be veeeery productive...




And as always when I register in new place I want to make myself something new (though it often means remaking the same picture over and over again like an idiot and then behappy cause I chagned new 1x1 px thing, which no one can see, after a day... including me...) So here's some kind of remake of my header for LJ (though you won't be able to see it till spring) but it's almost exactly the same thing as this sig. I'm reaally grateful and I have to thank GoNik for her help with japanese text.



And avatar with Tamaki. Come to think about it it's the first time I took him serious. Maybe cause I treat THIS art like something special (I've drawn him in this moment, Another avatar with the same moment I drew !!!). But if it weren't requested I wouldn't do this. One person somehow motivated me (compliments are baaad, it's worse than blackmailing ! seriously !!! I know it from my experience, though I've never ever once be blackmailed). He looks wonderful. Excactly how my favourite male character should look like. It's been one year since I met him ^^ Year ago I was watching Fruits Basket to cheer myself up after finishing Ouran.







King in Action was meant to be similar to this. To header. But sig is really almost the same. "Będę dzisiaj straszna i..." nie opowiem dowcipu, ale będę zamęczać czerwonymi grafikami. Niech żyją róże ! Co ciekawe w realnym życiu nie lubię kwiatów. I'm sadistic, I wrote really interesting thing above, if you want to read it learn this beautiful and wonderful and only one language, polish... Or rather die before you will have to say "Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz z Chrzęszczyrzeboszyc", and yeah, for people from Poland it's really not a big deal to say it. ^^



Edit: 15.01.2008

The cutest bunny I've ever seen. It's just too cute ^^ I fell in love with this one little guy. The picture itself is beautiful and I didn't do anything special, just added the text and played with colours... And I still don't like pink, really...

It's just too cute, in the anime it would be definietly main bad guy, and source of all evil... ^^

I received permission from this little guy's owner to use him, here's the original picture.


.

Kicham na to, piszę po polsku. I tak nikt tego nie czyta więc wszystko mi jedno. Jako że nie przyjęto poprzedniej dorobiłam się kolejnej wersji tapetki z Tactics. Prawdę mówiąc samo robienie tapet spodobało mi się szaleńczo.






A tutaj tapetka z KareKano Arima and Yukino. Ciekawi mnie skąd ja mam taką okropną tendencję do tworzenia kompozycji zamkniętych. Ale bardzo mi sie podoba. Przerabiałam róże żeby były 3D (czyli całe to cholerne cieniowanie, połyski i kropelki), przerabiałam oczka zupełnie od nowa bo te na moim rysunku niespecjalnie dobrze wyglądały. Nareszcie miałam okazję naprawdę pobawić się oczami ! To było coś ! Przy bohaterze z Tactics też miałam okazję nieco się pobawić ale to się nie umywa do tego co robiłam z Yukino i Arimą. Nie mogłam ich zrobić bez róż ! Wszystkie róże na tapetce są Ouranowe. Pomysł z texturką z róż zaczerpnięty z mojego headera z Nekozawą. Nota bene nie tylko pomysł ale i same róże też. Zastanawiałam się swego czasu czy nie założyć sobie tu drugiego konta z pamiętniczkiem właściwym dla moshi i mamuni, które dostają mój zeszyt ale się waham. Byłoby to pewnie wygodniejsze od maili. Ale ja z kolei tak strasznie lubię dostawać listy... ^^ Wracając do Arimy i Yukino (cholera po angielsku jakoś się powstrzymuję od dygresji) mnie się strasznie spodobali tutaj... Pomińmy ile ja długich godzin nad tym spędziłam ale efekt mi się bardzo podoba.

.

I was forced by my desires as an avatarmaker to make a wallpaper. I just want to download some scans from animepaper... Since it's not a big deal for me to make avatars and sigs I tried for the first time to make wallpaper. Believe me I still don't like pink... I don't know him, I know he's from Tactics and soon I will start watching this anime but personally I don't know who is he. I don't know whether Senbonzakura (yes, this is Senbonzakura ^^)  suits him either. But I like it ^^ I love the backgorund. I love this kind of photographs. I remade it cause the quality of the first background wasn't good. And since I had it in my mind I could focus on details. And I changed a little his eye (since it's my obsession as well ^^) and hair. I didn't add text. It's generally bothersome and annoying, I like clear wallpapers.

        
    


I also have 1200x960 version. Made by mistake. I wanted to make only 1024x768 version but didn't check real size of background (in Photoshop you can work on 50%...). I'm kind of happy now but it wasn't planned. I must say that I like second version more, colours are much better and he's shiny (cause of little change in his hair and eye), and the background is better.

I don't know how to show preview. It seems that putting it in this size doesn't affect real size of wall if you download it so it should be okay... I guess...


And my avatar today (Tamaki inspired by text "Masters in action") clearly shows my mood ^^ I feel and probably look (though I'm not that wonderful, beautiful etc) similar ^^ I love Tamaki, on 24th was exactly one year since I first saw first episode of Ouran. Ouran will be always special and precious to me.

.

I started to like av with Haruhi I put here in this note. It wasn't something I planned to make I was just fooling around with various avatars and screenshots and this is the result.  Now I have to say it's the best av I've ever made. I still can impress myself... But I love it, though I don't like pink. It's a mystery I don't like it yet I love to make avs in this colour. And the text is blunt, I couldn't help it. It's just thing she was really thinking about. No magic... But still I love it ^^


Today I will put avatars I like specially except Sasuke. But the one with Darling and L and Hatori are ones I really like. Tomorrow will be the last part of my older avatars. I'm currently thinking about adding ones I made for a request. But I'm not sure. We will see.


Sasuke

Well I like how it came out, I love dark avs with shiny texts. But the text itself, the meaning... It's something only person who watched Naruto would understand.  But generally I like it cause of colours. Sasuke wthout dark blue is not Sasuke.

Today there will be avs from Kanon 2006. I love this anime. It's one of my five favourite series.

1. Ouran High School Host Club (since year ago, exactly one year !!!)
2. Code Geass, Kanon 2006, Ghost Hunt
3. Saiunkoku Monogatari


Kanon has one of the best male characters I've ever seen. Yuuichi's sense of humour is just marvelous... I said a lot about Kanon so I won't do it here but I love it ^^ And of course I love Nayuki, but you will notice when you see my avs... ^^ And it's necessary to know Kanon 2006 if you want to understand my avies.


Yuuichi

I love this guy... Yuuichi and charm are one... ^^






Mai

Mai as Dancing Queen. This episode was wonderful... I love the scene when they are dancing. Even though Mai is not my fav from Kanon, I rather prefer Ayu than her. But still she was nice.






Nayuki temptation

I LOVE this one ^^ And you have to know Kanon to understand why strawberry jam was something... THAT special and why one jam was something she would never eat even if it meant death ^^

And here are my nevest avs, and one sig
(I can't believe how I like THIS Lulu, it's the first time I changed sth so many times)


Lulu and Narusegawa are currently used so they are NOT free to use.

Narusegawa

And the last one today. It was made for request (I don't usually make avs for requests cause I don't like to be forced but sometimes it comes out pretty good). I hate Narusegawa, truly deeply hate but I like this av.




Lulu

This av was meant to be similar to the sig. I even put here the same geass. I like it though I don't specially like this Lulu's expression.

Well I wrote a lot yesterday and the day before so today it will be short and not very interesting. I can't be sure but these avs I will show today are just normal and I don't have special attitude towards them. Just simple avatars. Not everyday we make something special, right ? Cause in that case it wouldn't be special. So I like them but they are not the best ones I made. Tomorrow I will add my Kanon 2006 avatars ^^ So tomorrow there will be much more interesting. And soon it will be the end of my older avs and I will be adding them like I did on Dev. I don't care about number of my avs, I just care about the quality (which is improving all the time), meaning and character on them. Cause the most important thing is the person I make av with. If I like him/her it becomes much more precious than the most beautiful with the person I don't like.






Well, Rukia and Ichigo. What else can I say about it ? ^^ I simply love this moment. And there are two versions, in english and in polish.





Just Touka from Utawarerumono (One being sung). I don't like her specially but she was cute in one of special episodes (yes, it's female). To be honest when I first saw her I wasn't sure about it, it cleared later. Poor Oboro...





                             And since I decided to use Winner you are not allowed to use it for yourself.


.

Today I will show two special avs, really special. Or even three, I'm still thinking but well they have almost the same text so it would be the best to put them together. I just love the question "Quo vadis", I like how it sounds. And I use it very often, sometimes it can be really funny when I seriously ask someone who goes for example to the bathroom "quo vadis", cause in polish it sounds really... noble... Well still I like it and probably I will make another avs with this text. And I purposely found screenshots where characters are sitting. I said earlier that I like when the av has deeper meaning and in my opinion this kind of poses are the best. I'm angry and I want to write in polish so if some of people who doesn't understand this beautiful and unique language wants to know what I wrote leave a comment.

No więc właśnie, apropo tego quo vadis, to jest ciekawe kiedy z pełną powagą pytam kogoś "quo vadis". Zwłaszcza że u nas przywołuje to dodatkowe nadęte skojarzenia. Zresztą ogólnie mój język mówiony jest interesujący, niedawno byłam naprawdę zaskoczona kiedy po pytaniu, którego sens możnaby ująć w trzech słowach (jesz tą bułkę?) osoba z którą rozmawiałam dostała ataku śmiechu. Dlaczego ? Ano dlatego, że moje pytanie (ja się nie kontroluję, po prostu mam taki specyficzny sposób wysławiania się, a tworzenie barokowych, jak to określił mój ukochany polonista, długich zdań uważam za swego rodzaju wyzwanie, tzn nie tyle tworzenie co dbałość żeby nie zgubić odpowiednich form gramatycznych) brzmiało "Czy będziesz w najbliższym czasie przystępować do konsumpcji?"... I ja o to zapytałam normalnie w tłumie innych ludzi, dopiero potem szanowne koleżanki uświadomiły mi co ja powiedziałam... Cholera a miało być o avatarach. No to już piszę (mam przeraźliwą tendencję do robienia dygresji czego Mamunia, moshi i tsunami miały okazję doświadczyć) na temat. Dla mnie siedzące postacie były wyrazem takiej jakby zadumy. Poza tym pominąwszy scenę Sasuke wygląda naprawdę całkiem do rzeczy i pasuje mu ten akurat tekst. Mnie się w każdym razie podoba. Co prawda kiedyś mamunia sugerowała że powinnam to wziąć bardziej dosłownie, ale ja raczej wolałabym żeby to było odebrane jako zastanawianie się "dokąd ja idę ? ". Nie umiem tego wytłumaczyć, a specjalnie skomplikowanej ideologii też nie chcę do tego dorabiać bo w końcu, na Ouran, to tylko avatarki !


As I expected I wanted to write one sentence and now I have this... Whatever, let's present my work instead of talking about it. Sometimes art shows things better than author's comments.



Sasuke from Naruto as you can see. I really like it I came up with this text when I was thinking about next one with Akito but I found this screenshot and I made it. I really like calm colours and generally it's just realxing just to look at it. It's calm and nostalgic somehow. And it shows part of Sasuke we haven't had a chance to see often. Cause generally he was emo and angsty and really annoying guy. But deep inside... maybe there is something else ? Who knows ? Now I don't like him and I'm neutral but I like my avs with him.

I couldn't hold myself and I HAD to change the picture above for what I made yesterday. I just love it ^^ I want to have them even for one day ^^


I'm not in the best mood so it can affect my comments but I hope that my avs would be enough. Well recently (I think it started for real three weeks ago) I can't stop thinking about one thing and that's why my mood can change very easily, I hope it will be over soon but my hopes are not something my heart would accept...

Today there will be some remakes, one I made today. Seriously I'm really grateful that I have an account here on LJ, cause without it I wouldn't have had motivation to make my avatars again.


So let's start with Winner

Maybe you're wondering who he is (he has... an interesting name), so he's from "Karin", an anime itself is not the best thing I've ever seen but it was nice. Winner reminds me of Tamaki, and I don't mean only apperance (cause they are like twins in this case), but generally behavior is very similar. So I like him very much. Second version is not old, but still it sucks so today I made another remake. I promised to myself not to do it but sometimes I just can't stand the quality of my older avs and when idea is worth it I'm remaking some of them (now I think that recently I've been only remaking). But I keep every one I made, even if they are really bad and I didn't show them here. Just to know how I started and how is it possible to improve skills... After every avatar that somehow impressed me I thought that it's the top of my abilities, and then I made another one, better than others... Now I'm really curious what I will make next time ? It's fun to think about it ^^ Cause I don't know myself. It's just one moment when I decide to do someting, and as it was today with Winner - I had some kind of vision but the result is always surprising. I really like this guy. And the brightness of this av (I generally like shiny and bright avs, and on the contrary really dark ones, I'm complicated person) and colours... and I'm currently thinking about adding it to my avs here... The word "imagine" is not some random word. It suits him even if someone doesn't know him (when I see closed eyes I can't stop thinking about imagination, mind etc), but well if you know Karin you would understand what I meant by that and WHY in this situation and with this face it's the most appropriate word... ^^ If it were Tamaki it would be the same (I mean this word with this face would suit him the best)  they were really very similar... And yes, the font was supposed to be not really serious cause I can't force myself to treat him seriously...

I think that I don't have to say which one is the newest ?
 










And now Naruto remake.

It was meant to resemble Lost in Darkness, I started to like this style (and I have an av with Gaara really similar to Lost), I still can't understand why it came out... like this... And why I didn't do from the start what I did when I was remaking it. The text are Sasuke's words, I remembered them and this is the result of rememebering strange things. It was the first (and till now, last) time I put more than one picture of the same parson in one av... But I like the effect. Even if now I'm not Sasuke or Itachi fan (to be honest I've never been Itachi's fan, he just suited my conception). And again it's dark blue cause I couldn't imagine Sasuke in other colour.




And this is another situation when I couldn't come up
with a border. There are avs that just don't need to have it.





     And two Ouran avatars:



Evil Mitsukuni. They are veeeeery similar, I mean Honey and L ^^
They have the same attitude towards cakes.^^






And this is special av cause I remade it five times ^^ It's some kind of record for me. I just couldn't came up with a text but I wanted the word beauty and it caused me a lot o problems and still I think it's not "it", and what it should be. So there will be probably changes in the future. But now it's not bad, I think.






.

Yesterday I took some kind of break cause I finished Code Geass. I was looking for some good arts and I found a lot. I will probably change my account and it will be with Suzaku :3 I like Lulu more but everyone hates Suzaku and I refuse to understand that. I don't know why people feel this way. It doesn't matter whether it is Lulu or Suzaku I just want to have someone from Code Geass (I was seriously thinking about Rivaltz, but... he's not that interesting even after last episodes). I don't know whether I will make some avs (now I don't have a chance to take some screenshots) but I have prepared long time ago a lot of sketches with Lulu, and now I have much more moments I would like to draw. But we will see...

I was thinking about adding here my newest (I made it today) graphics from Code Geass but I decided not to do it. I made it for my mom and I feel strange to put it here now. Or maybe with watermark...

Now some avatars, finally better ones (I hope, I hope), but since I made these avs I started to really like my work. I mean, they are avs I'm really and without any doubts proud of. Cause it took hours to make them (I'm pretty slow and I care a lot about details so making one av sometimes took me three or four hours, it depends on my idea etc.) and generally I like them the most ^^

Tamaki

I said earlier that I like profiles without eyes... So here's another one. This is the first time I wanted to make this kind of avatar and the last time. Don't know why, maybe I should try another one in this style. And this is one of avs that I couldn't come up with border for. I also had really big problems with text but I guess if you know what scene it is it makes sense. And it makes more sense when you see one of my newest avatars with him and Haruhi together. Now I think it's preparing for Haruhi and Tamaki in violet.




Sasuke

Definietly one of the worst avs I made but still 101 ep was just wonderful and I HAD TO make something with Sasuke. I can't leave him alone... To be honest I don't think he would be alive after meeting with fangirls but well, I didn't want to show some ugly sights.



Ryuuk

made for Vodh (from Tanuki), it was meant to be
connected with his sig so that's why colours are a bit strange.

I found out about Scrapped Princess accidentally. I was looking for something like Utawarerumono (even if it wasn't the best thing I've ever seen I started to like fantasy thnks to it, and special episodes... they are DEFINIETLY worth watching all anime for :3 ) when someone told me about Scrapped Princess. I wasn't too optimistic about it but then I saw one AMV (yes... Shannoni) And I started to watch Scrapped Princess. It's wonderful anime. It has the best characters I've ever seen. Raquel, Shannon, Chris, Furet, Zefy (I love to call her that way since Shannon started to call her like that, it was quite funny situation "Come here Zefy" ^^ and her relationship with her D-knight was also wonderful, well you will notice when you see one of my avs, I reaaally like them together) even Pacifica. But what is the most important is relationship between Shannon and Raquel. It was something uncommon and wonderful. Each of them was awesome (apperance, characters, clothes, their abilities !) but together they were the best siblings I've ever had a chance to watch. Furet is also interesting and I liked him more than Shannon but... Well those of you who watched it should know why he didn't become my favourite character. I can write about Scrapped Princess all day. I still really like it. It would be better if you know this anime if you want to understand my avs, and second reason: they may contain a little spoilers... Now I think I made too little avs from Scrapped Princess. I haven't got any with Chris ! And with Furet I have only one, and I don't have Forsyth (I know what he did but still I like him). I won't show Zefiris. You may see Dragoon as my av in this note and she's for my personal use so I won't put her here ^^


This is the first serious avatar I've made (one I really like and used for a loooong time). With Raquel. She's wonderful ! And with her is connected the only one moment I was really shocked while watching anime. It was when she screamed in the last (?) episode, her reactions after what Forsyth had done were just too realistic. I know it's one of the worst avatars I've made but I like it very much. She's special and this av is special as well even if it's such simple.


Furet in violet. His hair has undescribable colour so I thought the violet would suit him the best (the same is for Shannon and green). This is some kind of spoiler. Well I think that if I didn't say anything some of you wouldn't acknowledge it as a spoiler but I think it's necessary to know what happened between him and Pacifica to fully understand the text. It's not something he said but in his situation I wouldn't be surprsised if he said something like that. And I think that now it's clearly seen what kind of spoiler it is... I'm hopeless...



I was wondering whether I should add it or not cause it's not special or anything but well... Maybe there are some people who will like it, who knows ? And I like Cz, even though she was a Peacemaker.




And the one I was talking about earlier. I love them together ! Their relationship was something like Mai with Bou. It was special and undescribable. It's of course a remake but I refuse to show first version. I might only say that the first text was "Trust, one thing impossible to steal". And it was all about trust... with both of them. I love it. And this moment was also wonderful. D-knight and his Dragoon. Really warm av.





And one of the newest avs (but I decided that it's meaningless if I put it later so I'm doing it now, nota bene the remake with Shannon and Zefiris is something I made after this one). Shanonni. His face expressions were just PRICELESS ^^ I still like him a lot ^^




And here's something only for people from Poland.
 

Aż mi dziwnie pisać po polsku teraz, przywykłam do angielskiego, chociaż mój angielski robi się coraz gorszy, a dzisiaj osiągnęłam chyba apogeum w kwestii niegramatyczności. Whatever...



Za pozwoleniem mojej szanownej Mamuni (w pewnych kręgach zwanej Melmothią ^^) przekopiuję dyskusję którą odbyłyśmy na temat avatarka który miał tu już swój debiut. Mowa o Trust no one.




Mój opis avka (ja ten avek zrobiłam i pisałam to wszystko przed skończeniem Death Note):

Mam osobistą i prywatną słabość do męskich profilów. Zabijcie mnie nie wiem dlaczego. Zrobiłam ten avek bo im bardziej patrzyłam na cały kadr tym bardziej zwalał mnie z nóg. Takie ujęcia zaspokajają moje poczucie estetyki a dodatkowo coś jeszcze co odczuwa jednostka płci żeńskiej w stosunku do jednostki płci męskiej jeśli się owej jednostce ta druga podoba, nawet jeśli to tylko kupa kresek. Poza tym on ma grdykę, normalną, prawdziwą, męską. Nie lubię tego szczególnie ale podoba mi się realizm w Death Note, podoba mi się że ich męskość jest podkreślona takimi szczegółami o ogólnej budowie nie mówię /otrząsa się ze zgrozy na wspomnienie Kazuki z Get Backers.../. I jeśli jest takie ujęcie kupy kresek, jak nie widać oczu i jak cały kadr ma klimat taki jak ten...
Cholera, zaczynam coraz bardziej lubić L.

Melmothia  18-06-2007, 20:51

To jest po prostu piękne! Śliczne kolorki, ładnie wycięte (ma swój urok takie pokazywanie postaci, znaczy się, oczy zakryte włosami i charakterystycznym kadrem). I napis. I cienie. Jakby był w akwarium podziemnym, gdzie wszystko się we wszystkim odbija *_* Kojarzy mi się ponadto z tymi załamaniami obrazu, gdy nie wszystko jest takie, jakim się wydaje, co za tym idzie: znaczenie napisu - genialne!

Salva  18-06-2007, 21:12

Co do kolorków jakoś w przypadku L oscyluję pomiędzy zielenią a niebieskim, przy Kirze wszystko co czerwone. Jakoś tak mi pasują do nich te kolorki. 

Wiesz ja jak napisałam wyżej mam słabość do tak ukazywanych postaci, z zasłoniętymi oczami z profilu, a jeszcze jak on ma tu uwydatnione męskie cechy... *pada na ziemię z zachwytu* Te cienie i całe tło zostało dodane bo takie jakieś mi się puste wydawało to wszystko... Napisik celowo rozmazany, cień a raczej zarys sylwetki L był wynikiem przypadku nie był zabiegiem celowym, ale ładnie wygląda ^^ No i co do napisu jeszcze popatrzyłam na niego i musiałam napisać coś ze słowem trust, no musiałam... Strasznie mi pasuje... I jeszcze to zachodzenie na siebie napisu, celowe... Też się przyznam że mi się podoba.

Efekt akwarium został osiągnięty niechcący xD

Melmothia 18-06-2007, 22:48

Ja nigdy nad kolorami do L się nie zastanawiałam, chyba wychodziłam z założenia, że wszystkie do niego pasują...oprócz czerwonego ^^
Zasłonięcie oczu dodaje tajemniczości i jakiegoś takiego dziwnego odczucia, jakie może wywołać taki avek, nie wiem jak to nazwać...niepokój? Jest nastrojowy.
Dobrze, że ci to "niechcący" akwarium wyszło, to jest praktycznie główny czynnik i twórca klimatu (na równi z kadrowaniem) xD Napis zaś jest smaczkiem samym w sobie, potęgującym to wszystko, jeśli zna się bohatera, chociaż przypuszczam, że z takim wykonaniem to i bez tej znajomości może być tak samo odbierany. Ale mając pewną wiedzę wyczuwa się tu aż umysł L próbujący rozwiązać sprawę, samemu będąc otoczonym przez przeciwników x3

Wiem już skąd taki napis. Chodziło mi to po głowie i dopiero teraz dałam radę skrystalizować. Utkwiło mi baaardzo w pamięci aż sama się zastanawiam dlaczego, zresztą nie tylko utkwiło, jest to myśl która mi się często pojawia przy L, chodzi o motyw "przyjaźni" z Kirą, z Lightem... Jest w tym napisie z mojej strony trochę wyrzut, gorycz i nawet sarkazm biorąc pod uwagę co się stało w 25 odcinku. Ja to odczuwam tak, że on zaufał, trochę zaufał i przepłacił to tym czym przepłacić nigdy nie powinien. Oj zdaje się że jak dojdę do 25 odcinka będzie reakcja jak przy Hughsie... Jakby to ująć ? Przy L mam permanentne problemy z określeniem i wyrażeniem słowami tego kłębowiska myśli. A to jest ważne bo na tym motywie powstał w ogóle ten avek i zasadniczo przez to taki napis mi przyszedł do głowy. Napisy to jest pewna suma moich obserwacji, rozmyślań na temat danej postaci. Jest w tym avku niepokój, zgadzam się. Można powiedzieć, że jest to trochę stwierdzenie, ostrzeżenie i jakby wniosek z zachowania L na początku. Mam wrażenie, że gdyby ten avek był ruchomy on by przemknął jak duch a napis by powoli za nim znikał, taka uwydatniona stop klatka. O rany, głupio to brzmi. Zdaje się, że z większą łatwością operuję obrazem niż przekazuję co myślałam robiąc go i co myślę o tym teraz. W każdym razie jak patrzę na niego pierwszym rzutem oka, jest to podsumowanie strategii jaką przybrała ta postać żeby przeżyć /to mu się wspaniale udało /, jest to krótkie określenie jego samego, jaki jest. Na drugi rzut oka ja widzę w tym sarkazm. Zaspoilerowani wiedzą dlaczemu. A potem jakby współczucie, raz mu się zdarzyło i gdyby miał szansę to by tego drugi raz nie zrobił. Można się w tym avku doszukiwać ideologii i ja bym potrafiła spory referat napisać na temat tego avka. Zresztą na temat wszystkich. Nigdy postacie do moich avków nie są dobierane przypadkowo, nigdy tekst nie jest przypadkowy. Nie jest to twórczość ot po prostu żeby ładnie wyglądało ^^ Taki pewien rodzaj sztuki.

Dodam jeszcze że to wszystko mi siedzi w podświadomości i ja o tym tak nie rozmyślam podczas robienia. Dlatego zawsze o motywacji, o impulsie, który mnie skłonił do zrobienia avka piszę długo po tym jak go zrobię. To właśnie te moje obserwacje zbierają się w napis a dopiero potem wychodzą mi motywy i mogę się zastanowić dlaczego tak, a nie inaczej.

I żeby się nie wydawało, że taka nadęta jestem. Ja po prostu lubię się bawić z grafiką, zwłaszcza jeśli bohater mi się podoba ^^

Referat xD
Problemy z określeniem postaci mogą wynikać z tego, że nasza wyobraźnia ma spore pole do popisu. L jest bardzo skomplikowaną osobą, a jego proces myślowy, a raczej nie sam proces związany ze śledztwem, ale samo to, co tak naprawdę myśli o innych, jest przed nami ukryte. My tak do końca nie wiemy, czy on chciał zaufać...eee...dobrze...nie będę spoilerować.
Córcia, ja też nie potrafię ubierać w słowa tego, o co mi chodzi. Że stop klatka? xD A Ty wiesz co mi przyszło do głowy kiedy pisałam poprzedni komentarz, tylko nie chciałam tego napisać, bo doszłam do wniosku, że nie dość, iż to będzie nadinterpretacja to jeszcze, jeśli w moim wykonaniu, to dość niejasna? Chciałam napisać, że ten avek jest jak zatrzymany w czasie, tak jak to spowolnienie w filmach, gdy postać się porusza i myśli, ale wszyscy naokoło zamarzli. Wtedy to wyglada, tak, jakby ten niezatrzymany osobnik był sam jeden, ale jednak widzimy innych, tylko jakby w pewnym oddaleniu. Ktoś, kto musi się pilnować "nie ufać nikomu" i reszta, jego wrogowie, otaczający go ze wszech stron...taka zamarznięta cisza i spokój, które w każdej chwili mogą zamienić się w piekło...Mam nadzieję, że to było w miarę zrozumiałe xD
Im więcej piszesz o danym swoim avku, tym bardziej mi się takowy podoba, bo raz - zyskuje na głębi, i dwa - człowiek zdaje się go lepiej rozumieć ^^

Salva  19-06-2007, 19:45

Ja wiem że to moja nadinterpretacja, ale ja nawet już nie piszę o tym, że to tylko moje odczucia. Dokładnie przeczytałam swego czasu dyskusję (to przez nie wszystko) o Death Note IT. ghostface, Crofesimy i innych. Oni mnie trochę zasugerowali, a raczej mnie pasowało tak o bohaterach myśleć jak one pisały. To nie jest tak, że ja stuprocentowo wierzę że on mu zaufał. Ja po prostu czuję to ziarenko niepewności i nie potrafię całkowicie tego zanegować. Dlatego nie dodaję, że jest to maluteńkie prawdopodobieństwo bo wtedy na kruchych nogach by ta moja motywacja stała.

Wiesz to nie jest tak, że ja robię specjalnie avki z trzydziestym ósmym dnem. Po prostu jak zaczynam się nad tym avkiem zastanawiać i patrzeć wychodzi to wszystko co było bodźcem do tego żeby taki avek zrobić. Ja po prostu lubię jak moja twórczość ma sens. Albo jest zabawna, albo coś o postaci mówi, albo jest sumą obserwacji... Tylko to musi mieć sens. Nie jest to sobie a muzom.

Dokładnie oddałaś to o co mi chodziło !!! Takie chwilowe zatrzymanie kiedy wszyscy są dookoła i nie wiadomo komu ufać. Dlatego im dłużej patrzę na jego twarz (ciężko mi powstrzymać zwyczajny zachwyt tym ujęciem i rozczulenie, ja w stosunku do L czuję rozczulenie... Chociaż jak analizuję to jakbym o obcym facecie mówiła. Ciekawa rzecz, muszę się nad tym zastanowić...) tym bardziej napis wydaje mi się pasujący. Ale wiesz te dwie alternatywy napisów o których pisałam na devie, chociaż zasadniczo raczej ta pierwsza też by się ładnie wpasowała w klimat, ale zabrałaby za dużo miejsca.

Dziekuję mamunia ^^ Cieszę się, że rozumiesz ^^

Melmothia  19-06-2007, 20:43

^^ I dlatego, że ma sens jest takie ciekawe. O! i oprócz sensu maja też estetykę. Forma i treść. Właśnie o to chodzi, to jest potrzebne, żeby avek był idealny. Ten Twój z L jest moim ulubionym z Twoich wszystkich dotychczasowych avków ^^
Pierwsza na DA? A nie chodzi Ci raczej o drugą? Bo mi pierwszy napis nijak by tu nie pasował, głównie przez to "no fear", nie musi sie bać? Nie pasowałoby do klimatu avka. Już prędzej drugi, ale w porównaniu z tym, który jest teraz, ten dłuższy wydaje sie nieco przegadany. Pierwszy, oryginalny i zastosowany jest najlepszy, bez dwóch zdań ^^ To takie dziwne odczucie o którym piszesz (analizować L, jak obcego a jednocześnie zachwycać się i czuć słabość do postaci) - ja tak mam z Light xD Ponadto uwielbiam wynajdywać jego wady i komentować jego poczynania, nawet nie wiem dokładnie dlaczego.

Salva  19-06-2007, 20:53

Wiesz jakby się tak głębiej zastanowić to ten pierwszy pasowałby bardziej niż Ci się wydaje. Podpowiem Ci mój tok myślenia, strach o życie... ^^ Już bliżej prawda ?

Drugi faktycznie przegadany. Ale i tak mi sie podoba.

A co do L. Jak o nim piszę to tak sobie piszę, sucho bez emocji. Jak zaczynam się zastanawiać to czuję falę ciepła jak na niego patrzę to samo. Rany jak my się rozdrabniamy. No wiesz w każdym razie o co chodzi xD

Melmothia  19-06-2007, 21:34

Ale właśnie chodzi o to, że na tym avku ten niepokój jest!
Jeśli dać, że nie ufa, więc nie musi się bać o swoje życie, to w takim razie po co istniałby ten szczególny nastrój niepewnosci...takiego jakby drgania prawdy? ^^ Bo to stwierdzenie "no trust, no fear" jest bardzo stabilne i dlatego mi nie pasowało, taka prawdziwa sentencja z kropką na końcu, do tego jak wypowiadane na głos to z takim akcentem: _ / _ / czyli bardzo takim ...pewnym, stwierdzającym, a nie tak jak w tym drugim / / _ z wyciszeniem na końcu... ...ee...mniejsza z tym xD W każdym razie tak, jak jest teraz, jest idealnie xD
A ja jak mówię o czymś, co lubię to się niemiłosiernie jąkam i powtarzam, bo wtedy mówię szybko, jakby od tego moje życie zależało ^^"

Chcę złożyć wyrazy szacunku wszystkim, którzy doczytali to do końca ^^



.       

I've changed a little the picture above and the background and I think it looks better. I have prepared two another version but now I want Mai. It's darker now and generally I feel more comfortable when I look at it. I just love dark colours.

Today I will show not the best ones but I think rather interesting avs. Hope you like them. And the first sig. I forgot about it ! But generally I make them for myself so it would be no point in showing them here when I don't want other people to use them. Maybe at the end of this note I will add my best ones ^^

I forgot to write about it. I think about the text before I made one (and now it's the most often situation) or after doing some strange things using Photoshop to the characters. But generally I don't have to think about it, it appears in my mind when I see someone's face or I remember something special about the person. I usually try to find the text with connection to series... Not something completly random. However I made once an av with random text (Some blue man).




Kyouya. So as I promised combination of two series, my favourite Ouran and Death Note. When I saw his smile I immediately thought that he looks like Kira or he would look like it if he has death note, but... I think it's better for Tamaki that Kyouya doesn't have one ^^'







Tamaki and Haruhi.
One of avs I love the most. It's exacly what Tamaki said when he caught her. I really like this moment. And Haruhi's reaction. It was kind of experiment cause I used new options to made it. And there are few avs made in that style.



Some blue man. :3 On Dev I never said who is he. But I think it's simple to find out. I would imadietly recognise this guy, maybe cause I like how character are drawn in this anime, who knows ? And the text has NOTHING to do with him  (though it's possible for him to say somthing like that with that face to the main male character in... this anime ^^), I just saw this screenshot and the text appeared in my mind. It suits him ^^


Kyouya. I don't like it. The text and idea and screenshot are very good and I am definietly going to remake it but now it sucks. It's part of screenshot from 8th episode, and when you compare it to what Honey said in 23 episode... It makes sense, ne ? What does he truly desire ? What is it that he really wants ? Kyouya is a very interesting guy. And mysterious, and I like to think about him though I don't really like him.



Little Akito. I really like this one. It suits... this character. Now I love Akito. After I had watched anime I started to really like this person, the voice is really interesting. After reading the manga Akito became my favourite character. I don't know why cause till 20 volume I hated this person from the bottom of my heart. Now it's changed. And I'm going to make many avs with one of the most interesting Sohma. This av is just cute (though on it Akito looks more like Yuki) and it's really good, I mean this text.

And the last one for today:



Sword Dancer from Trinity Blood. I'm proud of it cause the screenshot was reaaaally bad. And I like the text, and the background. I used new effects and generally I like it. However I don't even remember real name of this man... ^^'



And my best avs with sigs. For my personal use so with watermark (or whatever it's called). All from Ghost Hunt despite Sleeping Beauty (Kanon 2006). I simply love them. They are veeery simple but they are my favourite.


The first one was with Mai (top left) the second one with Lin, the third one with Yasuhara, the fourth with Nayuki (Sleeping Beauty), the fifth with another Mai (top right) and the last one with blue Mai (and I'm currently using it). And I have some kind of habit since I made first sig from ghost hunt. I always add the logo. It looks much better this way. I think...

.

Today was very stressful day. I'm tired, I'm simply very tired. And I feel like I lost part of my pride and it's awkward feeling. I don't have proper icon for my mood but depressed suits me the best. It's really hard to be female.


But I didn't come here to write about myself but about my avatars.


"The Smell of death is in the air, he has been here..." I was inspired by this song once, but it was different situation I guess. Well I love this one. It's part of screenshot from 25 episode. And it has two meanings if you know what happened and if you don't know... I'm proud of it. I didn't like L at the beginning but when I started to watch Death Note (I must say that I made almost all of my avatars from Death Note BEFORE I started to watch this anime ^^ I haven't read the manga either) he became my favourite character from DN. His eye is almost alive here (I added lens flare to make it "alive" and it looks somehow like Kira's eye...)






Kira

with EVIL eyes. I love this one !!! And the text ! (I was inspired by this av when I made avatar with Grimmi recently, they are similar somehow, Kira and Grimmjow... maybe cause of their laugh ?).




And the last one today (tomorrow I will add Kyouya with Death Note. One of my most popular avatars after one with Ichigo and Rukia together, though I still haven't figure out why is it so popular and people like it...) It's not the best av I made but I had to make av from this moment. I love when they are shown together. And again the text has it's deeper meaning if you think about it. I try to put everywhere the word "light" (in avatars or titles of drawnings ^^) on purpose... I like it. You may interprate it, the fact that each of them has his own colour, and they are looking in opposite direction... And by light I mean truth and light in polish reminds me of God so... ^^


.

I wonder why I'm writing in English when only people from Poland read it ?

I proudly present first avatars made in Photoshop. Well I must say that when I started using it I knew nothing about this program. I've never read any tutorials, as well. So I will protect with my own body my PSD from seeing by real pros ^^  I still can't use PS properly, but I've learned a little and now I can somehow make many things. I can't use complicated tools and I don't know a lot of options, but I'm learning all the time. Step by step. And it gives me much more satisfaction than reading about it in tutorial. I'm happy when I discover something new, and I will make new effect. I created something like my own style accidentaly using various options. Although there are few things I like more than others and I try to use them every time ^^

Yesterday I made an avatar cause I've prepared new face of my account on LJ with Tamaki. And I think it's really good. It doesn't mean I will remove Mai but I have another one. I decided that it has no meaning if I'm not adding avatars the day or day after I made them waiting till I finish with older ones. So you will have the chance to compare first and newest version. I see a huge difference but well when you see Sasuke Lost in Darkness you will probably understand that after each of my avs I felt that it was huge difference and I thought that I would never make something better and the next day... Oh well, I guess I will add some avs instead of talking ^^


Yesterday Tamaki, King in Action. The best Tamaki I've ever made. I made few avs with him but this is definietly the best. I love it ! It's such dynamic ! I love him (he's since december last year my favourite male character from anime ever, and no one beat him. Even Yuuichi, even Yasuhara, even Bou, even Lelouch. He's still the one ^^), his pose, I love red colour, I love this shiny things, I love my 3D texts and THIS text (nota bene inspired by one of banners from amv.org ^^) and since I saw Ouran I started to love roses... So I simply love it ^^ And since I made it for my account here it's not free to use. But I didn't do anythng to it. I hate when someone adds some kind of signs to confirm who is author cause it always looks bad (I just collect avatars and don't use other than mine) so I didn't do it.

  
First text made using Photoshop. Well you may not believe but I didn't like to add texts in PS, it was just too uncomfortable for me. Today I think I can't agree with this... ^^' But as I said earlier that time I just started to learn how to use PS by myself, no one helped me so effects were kinda interesting... ^^ The first version (left) and some kind of remake(right). I love little Vash, he's just cute and such warm ! And when you think about his past it's sad but still I love it (and my weakness for blonde men has NOTHING to do with it ! ^^)




My first Death Note avatar (and as you can see the text is better than the last one, though still it sucks...)! Made when I didn't know Light/Kira at all ! But I knew spoilers, all spoilers from the beginning so I could guess what kind of character he had. He is lord of nightmares even if he has this smile on his face, Nota bene I drew him in this moment.






I can't comment this, it just can't be commented... ^^









Another Vash, I just love this guy in SD...
The half of text is BOReK's idea ^^
And I like the way I made the text, it really suits him.





I'm thinking about adding first avatars with L but it would be better to do it in one post and I have plans and can't write too long today so you will have to wait till tomorrow.


And why amused and relieved ? Cause of my wonderful Mom ^^ She comforted me today and now I'm in really good mood. And I feel optimistic about tomorrow. Although I'm still scared when I'm thinking what I will have to do... But I know I'm brave (...little toaster...) ^^

.

The time to finish with Bleach avies has come ! I mean with older ones cause I made Bleach avatars recently and even if they are on the same level they will wait.




Kon and Rukia's feet

Yes, she was kicking him... His face here, it's so different from what we often can see in Bleach... I couldn't stop myself from making it.






Byakuya

Did I mention that I like to torture my favourite characters ? :3 Byakuya is not my most beloved character from Bleach, but he's wonderful to make funny avatars with. And it's not the last time I'm making fun of him... ^^






Hollow Ichigo

Made from a fanart I can't find (Dev... &*$%^#^#$) Well it's essence of what Hollow Ichigo was for Ichigo.






Ichigo

I said earlier that I was often inspired by songs... So the text is Blunt's, Ichigo belongs to Kubo Tite and the spider is MINE ^^







Ukitake

One of my favourites even now !!! Not only because of the character but his pose, I love it !!! Nota bene I clearly remember the day when I made it. The screenshot was really bad and yet it turned out into something like this. It's one of last avatars I made using only ACDSee ^^




Tomorrow I will start adding avatars made using Photoshop. Even if they are different it doesn't mean they are better. I just like the result. And few of my fav avatars are done in both programs but for example Ukitake was done only in ACDSee and I'm proud of it even more !



Tsunami co do Makoto, wiesz dla mnie też było to zaskoczeniem ale do teraz podziwiam twórców za płynność i wyczucie z jakim wprowadzili tak odważny element i nie zepsuli klimatu całej historii. Bardzo mi się podobało w Kanon że na pytanie jaka to jest seria elementy fantastyczne przychodzą do głowy dopiero po jakimś czasie, bo na pierwszy plan w Kanonie wysuwa się co innego. A Makoto konsekwentnie nie znosiłam do samego końca i zakończenie jej wątku nie zrobiło na mnie absolutnie żadnego wrażenia. Ale przyznasz że sytuacja jak jej wrzucił to lodowate coś (jego MINA, evil evil Yuuichi ^^) za piżamę, albo jak kazał kupić gazetki i wiele innych powalało na ziemię ? ^^

.

I couldn't stop myself from having as my av today HIM. I've loved this one since I've made it and I'm the same as him. I love dark places, dark things and black is such beautiful colour (but I'm exacly like him, I mean I don't have black hair etc, I just like to wear black clothes and I feel calm when I'm in dark place, at night or when I look at for example my journal). And the contrast with the text I just love it. It's the essence of what I call beautiful avatar in my style. I simply love my avies and I make them because I love to look at them ^^


Kakashi sensei. I made it when I didn't know Naruto and I hadn't watched even one ep. The text is in polish and it means "Day without book is a wasted day", and yes I was well aware of what book he was reading ^^ If someone recognise this chibi please tell me who made it ! I want to credit properly but I don't know who is an author !




Here are the Bleach ones, I decided that I would put every one of them in one note cause they are on the same level. They were made one after another and it would be no point in putting them in few parts. But even if they are not the best avies I've made I like them ^^


Ishida prepared for all... I hope everyone who watched Bleach can say what scene it is ? :3 It was short after they enter this strange thing between Soul Society and Karakura Town, Ishida was catched by something and then Sado threw him but unfortunately he destroyed Ishida's cape... But Ishida was prepared and had a new one ! xD I didn't like him at the beginning but after seeing his "club" and how he acted when Menos appeared I started to love this guy, he's wonderful...

Just some random strawberry... I love when pink and orange are together on one pic, I don't know why I just really like it.
 

Rukia and Ichigo

I'm moved when I look at them. There is no reason, just... Maybe cause he's holding her this way and he's realxed and happy. It's such warm... Made from this wallpaper.





Ishida

Probably the most of you wouldn't understand it.. Inspired by GoNik's post from Tanuki. I just HAD TO make avatar with this text and this face ^^ I love Ishida, and when I like character I'm sadistic and he becames victim of my sense of humour. But it's compliment. I like to make fun only of characters I truly deeeply like :3

It doesn't need any description, it's just Kon, perverted as always. By the way I'm really often inspired by songs.

Just Ichigo and Zangetsu, I LOVE when they are shown together in anime. Both of them in their human forms, together, I don't know why. I just like how Zangetsu treats Ichigo and the paradox cause it looks like Ichigo's powers are older than himself... I don't want to even think about it ^^ It's complicated.



Well I guess I won't finish it with one note. There are too many Bleach avies I have. But I think it's enough for now. Hope you like them. You know I was searching around LJ and I found some interesting avatars but I think that avatar lack something without description. I have to tell people why I choose THIS scene and why I made it with such text. Without it it lacks something important. I mean, I make my avs when I feel like doing it. I must have inspiration or just be in mood or excited after seeing anime (I felt that way when i was watching Bleach, I'm calm when I'm not currently watching it but when I start to rewatch it... I feel like a real Bleach fan, I think it's all shonen's advantage). I don't know whether you like my descriptions or not but I feel that sometimes I have to explain why i made avatar.
