WW2

Yes he does have a body, its just that I decided to save time and just do a head shot.:D

The head Vaptor lead the guardians to the base of the Volacano, where there was a cave entrance. [b]Vaptor:[/b] Come, the gem you seek lies within. The guardians nodded and followed the Vaptors inside the hot cavern. The air within was humid and burnt the senses. [color=indigo]Banner: Damn, its hot as hell in here.[/color] [color=orange]Kiara: Well, what do you expect? We are inside a volacano.[/color] Banner then noticed that Engestsu and Goraiku hadn't entered the caverns with them. [color=indigo]Banner: Hey Kiara wheres your animal buddies?[/color] [color=darkblue]Ki: They said they didn't like the heat, so they decided to wait for us out side.[/color] Soon the guardians were lead to a large metal door, and the lead Vaptor turned to them. [b]Vaptor:[/b] The gem lies behind these doors. The Vaptors then rushed foward and opened the doors. [color=orange]Kiara: Well thanks. I think we can handle it from here.[/color] [color=indigo]Banner: Yeah....thanks.[/color] Kiara then entered, followed by Banner and Ki. Behind the doors they found them selves walking down a long rocky passage way. [color=indigo]Banner: Hey Kiara, somethings not right here.[/color] Kiara turned back to look at Banner. [color=orange]Kiara: You noticed that too huh?[/color] [color=darkblue]Ki: Why, whats the problem?[/color] [color=indigo]Banner: Those Vaptor things were way too nice, and eager to bring us here. Which means we're probably heading into a trap.[/color] The trio then heard the big metal doors slam behind them. [color=orange]Kiara: I see what you mean, but lets keep going foward. We should be able to handle anything they throw our way.[/color] Banner nodded, and the three continued down the passageway, not knowing what lied ahead.:devil:

Putting that Legeto business aside, thanks for all your feedback. I've now decided to post my second Modern Dreams pic. This character's name is Gideon, Zarcadian Guardian of Shadow. [img]http://home.earthlink.net/~twc3365482238/gideon.jpg[/img]

[b]Here's the rule:[/b] The Art/Graphic Design Forum has a very specific purpose: members use this forum to post their own artwork and discuss it with other members. With that in mind, it is very important to remember that post quality is, once again, important in this area. Posting something like "Whoa! That's cool!" is simply unacceptable. So you see, just saying "Nice" isn't an acceptable post. The moderators here want you to explain what you like about a pic, or how it can be better. Just thought you'd like to know.:D

Um, your post is considered spam. You should write more, check the rules. But thanks any way:D

Well, the episode after "Girl Bandit" is "The Conquered Village. These episodes have not yet been aired on CN, but should be shown next Monday and Tuesday. Does that answer your question or are you refering to another episode? :therock:

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by kiddy_phenil [/i] [B]there's like one or two more out just not overseas yet, its the very end of kenshin.. [/B][/QUOTE] The very end of Kenshin? You must be talking about the two episode OVA,[spoiler] in which Kenshin dies at the end.[/spoiler] If so, that was released by ADV, not too long ago under the name Samurai X: Reflections.:D

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Tachibana Ukyo [/i] [B][font=verdana][size=1]hey how many eppys of rurouni kenshin are there[/font][/size] [/B][/QUOTE] There were 95 episodes of Rurouni Kenshin, and 2 different Samurai X OVAs. The first OVA was comprised of 4 episodes, while the second only had 2. That means that there are 101 episodes in all, and I am proud to say I own the entire series.:D

If you don't know Modern Dreams is a story posted in the Adventure area of this site, created by DJ Tatum. I like to consider myself a co-creater, since we worked together on the story. Well, anyway I created some pics of a few characters from this story, and have decided to post them here for everyone to see. My first pic is of Silia, the Zarcadian Guardian of Light. Me and Tate both worked on how this character should look. So, please tell me what you think.:D [img]http://home.earthlink.net/~twc3365482238/silia.jpg[/img]

Banner, Kiara, Ki, and the others were still on their way to the Hot Crater. Suddenly Goraiku and Engetsu sensed something in the distance. [b]Goraiku:[/b] Hmmm. Seems Tate has left this world. [color=indigo]Banner: Left? You mean he's dead?[/color] [b]Goraiku:[/b] No, I don't think so. After their battle, Silia must have sent him back to his world. [color=indigo]Banner: What?! You mean she can do that? Why the hell does he get to leave?![/color] [b]Goraiku:[/b] I don't know, but lets focus on the task at hand. Look, we have arrived. Banner looked down and saw a small island with a large valcano petruding out from it's center. [color=indigo]Banner: So thats the place. Well lets get down there and find that gem.[/color] Banner turned back towards Kiara and Ki. He pointed out the island below. Kiara nodded and Engestsu began to descend. [color=indigo]Banner: Well here we go.[/color]:(

I've seen the last 2 episodes that they have shown, and I have nothing bad to say about it. I like the Tezuka style of animation and character designs. I also really like Jiro's guitar playing skills, and his transformation sequence is pretty cool. But I do have one question, why is it that all the robots he fights look like bugs? Hopefully this will change as the series progresses.

*Kiara, check out page 5. Silia's kidnapping and Gimeron's first appearance is explained in one of my posts. Its the one posted on 5-27-2003 at 10:04PM :D ----------------- Banner got up, holding his head. He then coldly stared at the Crocgator and Kiara. "Great, now she's got a frickin' flying alligator," he grumbled. "How many of those damn animals is she gonna get?" "Does it matter," Tate replied. "We need all the help we can get." Banner turned towards Tate. "Who the hell asked you," he exclaimed. "Shouldn't you go pass out now, or something?" "No, I feel fine," Tate answered. "Jeez whats up with you?" "Nothing," Banner said in a low voice. "Its nothing, I'm sorry, just leave me alone." He then slowly walked off, away from the others. Banner made his way into the forest, where he rested up against a tree. He then reached into his left jacket pocket and pulled out a ring. The gold ring shimmered in the sunlight, and it's diamond sparkled. As Banner stared at the ring, memories of the past began to stir within his head. Memories about a warm summer day, not too long ago, and the heartache that followed. "If only I had been stronger," Banner muttered. He then heared something behind him, and quickly put the ring back into his pocket. "Who's there," Banner shouted. "Its just me," Andrea said. "What are you doing out here by yourself," she asked. Banner lowered his head. "Nothing," he said. He then lifted his head, revealing his goofy smile. "Hey since we're out here alone, maybe we could..." Andrea whacked Banner over the head, silencing his perverted proposal. "Enough funny stuff," she said. "Now come on, the others are waiting." Andrea then made her way out of the forest. Banner smiled and rubbed his head. He then reflected of his past thoughts and with a sigh erased them from his mind. "Hey wait up," he yelled, as he tried to catch up with Andrea.

Banner flew off on the large bird, Goraikou, while Ki and Kiara followed closely behind. [color=indigo]Banner: Damn that Kiara, she didn't have to hit me. I figured she knew I was joking about the whole thing.[/color] [b]Goraikou:[/b] It seems that act of yours is getting you into trouble. Maybe you should let up. [color=indigo]Banner: Maybe you're right, but I just can't help it. I've been like this ever since...[/color] [b]Goraikou:[/b] Ever since what? [color=indigo]Banner: Thats none of your business! Lets change the subject. Where the hell is this Hot Crater thing?[/color] [b]Goraikou:[/b] I see... very well. The Hot Crater lies farther south, we should be there soon. Banner then turned back and looked at Kiara and Key, who had started up a conversation. [color=indigo]Banner: Hmm. I wonder what they're talking about.[/color] [b]Goraikou:[/b] I believe that is none of your business. Heh Heh. [color=indigo]Banner: Oh shut up. I don't need to take any crap from any talking bird. What do you think about this Tate, Xavier thing?[/color] [b]Goraikou:[/b] I believe that Tate must be stopped before he goes over the edge. For then, Damienina could easily take control of him. How we can do this, I really don't know. [color=indigo] Banner: I wouldn't worry about that too much.[/color] [b]Goraiku:[/b] Why do you say that? [color=indigo] Banner: Lets just say Tate wasn't the only one who's been training for the past five years.[/color]:smirk: Goraiku then focused in on Banner's power, and was startled by what he found. [b]Goraiku:[/b] Heh...I see. I just hope that it is enough.

I really like the part in FFV where Bartz, Galuf, and the princess are trying to sneak onto the pirate ship. The princess says that maybe the pirates will help them. After hearing this Bartz and Galuf's eyes bulg out and Galuf says something like: Are you @*^#%&* crazy! They're @#^$* Pirates for god's sake! :laugh: I have to say thats one of the most memorable moments in FF.

FFVII was the first Final Fantasy I played, and introduced me to the RPG genre. Since then I am hooked on RPG's. Their great storylines, cool cast of characters and attacks, great lengths, I can't get enough. I now own just about every FF game, but still think VII is the best. Mainly because of its memorable cast of characters (Cloud and Sephiroth rock!!!) and great music.

I was first introduced to anime by the Sci Fi channel's old Saturday Anime block. They showed cool movies like Cashan, Demon City Shinjuku, Project Ako, Robot Wars, and 8 Man After. After seeing these movies, I was hooked. I loved it's great, fluid animation and mature storylines. From then on I watched anything anime. But soon, for some odd reason, Sci Fi stopped showing anime all together. That really pissed me off. :mad: Luckily Toonami came along.:D

Hey Tate! Can I join? (Like I have to ask) Name: William Age: 17 Character: Ryu (Streetfighter) Powers: Hadoken, Ryuken, Super Hadoken, etc. Description: Banner has glasses, dark brown hair, and is wearing Ryu's karate gi. Bio: Like Ryu William follows a strict code of honor, and wishes to be the strongest fighter in the world.

Not much has happened at my school. But this one time some girl went crazy in psychology class, and started to freak out. Our teacher told us that the girl said she had seen the classroom walls open up, revealing the grim reaper. After this the girl was put on some kind of medication. I'm not sure if its true or not, its just something my psychology teacher said. Oh and this one time some girl had a headache and took like twelve Asprins. Unsuprisingly, later that day she passed out in the halls. Like I said not much happens at my school.:(

Banner watched as Tate dissapeared. [color=indigo]Banner: Damn, I feared something like this would happen.[/color] Andrea turned and looked at Banner. [b]Andrea:[/b]Like what? [color=indigo]Banner: Seems our friend Tate is on a power trip. That transformation of his has clouded his mind, making him think he's invincible.[/color] [b]Andrea:[/b]I fear you're right. Sure his power is great, but it is nothing compared to that of Damienina. She then looked at her mother. [b]Andrea:[/b]What should we do mother? Silia: You shall do as we have planned, split up and find the other gems. [b]Andrea:[/b]But what of Xavier? Silia then spread her wings, and lifted herself up into the air. Silia: I shall find him and make sure he doesn't get into any trouble. Then in a flash of light Silia dissapeared. [b]Andrea:[/b] Come Banner let us inform the others of these events. [color=indigo]Banner: Sure thing sweet cheeks. Oh, and don't worry so much about Tate, the worse thing that could happen is he'd be killed.[/color]:smirk:

AAAHHHHHH Puchuus! Kill 'em, Kill 'em all!:eek: Oh sorry, thats a pretty good pic. But like () said, you should thin up the borders surrounding the puchuus. But all in all, not bad for your first try.:D

Cell Phones! I hate those friggin' things, especially the ones with those stupid musical ringers. Everywhere I go, be it at the mall, on the road, in the grocery store, theater, or even school, there is always someone talking on their stupid cell phone. But what really rattles my cage is that the people who talk on cell phones have nothing constructive to say. They're always just jabbering on, explaining what they are doing at that time.:flaming: After seeing this I have come to the conclusion that people who like to yak on cell phones are basically doing it because it gives them a feel of self importance. "Look I'm talking on a cell phone, Yippeeee!" Either that or they are so bored with being by themselves, that they must be talking to someone at all times. Plus I find that text messaging and the ability to play games on cell phones, useless. Oh I also really hate those stupid cell phone comercials!:mad: It just seems that people rely way too much on cell phones. Its like they become addicted and can't do a damn thing without them, not even talk to people face to face. To me, this growing trend of people becoming addicted and controled by machines is very sad. But this is all just my opinion:D

I own the entire Excel Saga series on DVD, and I cherish it. I love its twisted sense of humor and its anime perodies. Plus Nabeshin, his Afro Warriors, and Illpalatzo have to be some of the coolest/funniest characters ever! Oh, and Daitenzen should deffinately get their own series. As for the other two series, I've seen them for sale, but their not my kind of anime.

Banner looked at Tate. [color=indigo]Banner: Dude! What the hell was that?![/color] Xavier turned towards Banner with an arogant smile. [color=silver]Xavier: What this? This is my true form. For the last five years I have been training my mind and body, and it seems it allowed me to bring out my true power in this world.[/color] Banner looked sternly at the brash young Xavier. [color=indigo]Banner: Well I don't like it. This transformation seems to have made you more wreckless.[/color] He then turned away. [color=indigo]Banner: Just don't forget that great responsibility comes with your new found powers.[/color] Xavier snickered, not paying much attention to Banner's words. [color=silver]Xavier: Ohh don't worry about it.[/color]:D

*Hey KiaraStarr, I noticed that you met with Silia in your earlier post. How can that be? She was kidnapped by Gimeron, and we have to save her. Thats why we have been training all this time. You might want to edit that post, maybe change Silia's part into Andrea*:therock: Now on with the story: Banner nodded at Kiara's orders and summoned his Shadow Naginata. He then turned towards his allies. "Tate, Andrea, and you animal things, our best chance at destroying Lira is if we attack all at once," he explained. The others nodded, and prepared to attack. Tate flew up into the sky and prepared for his Heaven's Retribution, while the others powered up. Banner smiled. "Alright," he said. "Lets show this nightmarian ***** how we do things down town!" Banner then thrust forth his Kurai Shroud, which engulfed Lira and her Vaptor attackers. Then in one massive attack, Tate, Andrea, Taiin, Taiyou, Goraikou, and Engetsu all let loose powerful blasts of energy. Each blast hit Lira's position, resulting in a grand explosion that shook the entire island. The explosion sent out a shockwave that knocked the guardians down. After the explosion had diminished, Banner brushed himself off and got to his feet. He then walked over to the massive crater that had resulted from the explosion, and the others soon joined him. "Wow," Tate said. "Thats a big hole." "Did we kill her," Banner asked, looking at Kiara. "No," she responded. "I can still sense her thoughts." "What!" Banner exclaimed. "You're telling me after all that, she's still alive." Andrea then noticed some movement at the base of the crater. "Look," she yelled. The young guardians quickly turned their attention to the bottom of the crater, where they saw a bloody Lira get to her feet. "No frickin' way," Banner said in disbelief. "Her power has greatly dropped," Kiara explained. "She should be easy to finish off now." "Alright then," Banner said he jumped down into the crater. "I'll take her out now with my Kuraizuki!" The brash warrior rapidly desended towards the battered Lira, hoping to deliver the final blow. But when he reach her, Lira disappeared before his eyes. "Aw, hell," Banner groaned. "She got away!" "Don't worry," Andrea said. "We shall meet her again at Gimeron's castle. Now let us make our way back to the others." "Ok," Banner muttered, and made his way out of the large crater.:(

Favorit minor characters, let me think. I really like Mr. Satan (Hercule) from Dragon Ball. He first started out as a bumbling idiot, but as the story progressed so did his part. The idiiot even helped the others save the world. I also like Haji(sp) from Inuyasha. He's Miroku's little shapeshifting Tuniki friend that looks like a badger. I don't know why I like him, I just think he's cool. Mad Perot and Andy from Cowboy Bebop are also cool minor characters. I like Perot because he's a crazed mad man, who gives Spike a worse beat down than Vicious ever did. I like Andy because Spike hates him. The fight scenes with those two were funny as hell. But thats just my opinion:D
