The World Ends With You- Pins

okay, i mentioned the world ends with you, and i posted some of the character designs.

well, in the game, the main character (neku) is put into a reapers game to win back his life. he is given, or earns pins (like the ones you put on your shirt?) that each give him unique abilities, or "psyches"

here is a list of the different pins






































a lot isnt it? 304 total.

heres ones that i made
 my entire collection so far, 44 i think.

i had a lot more, but i lost or broke them... ive gone through at least 2 dozen of the black skull pin, cause i used to always wear one!

these were the pins that neku started out with, and they did a veriety of basic attacks... from slashing to healing.










these came from my fav set in the game, called gaitio

in this set, you had to wear every piece to a certain pattern to use the abilities.

for instance, when you wore the bottom three the "cat" set, it reduced loading time of all attacks by 50%. but if you wore one, it did nothing.


 My second favorite, Jupiter of the Monkey

this set used mostly sword style moves.
the numbers were all stabbing attacks, while the letters were slash attacks.

 random assortment of pins that just looked really cool lol


D+B set
basically, D+B focused on long range attacks
all but the topright one was some kind of spike coming out of the ground to hit the enemy









these pins were "unbranded" pins meaning they didnt belong to a set.
the ones with numbers were money.
the white, yellow, and red at the bottom were keys
the top two (the wolf and pig) were rare boss drops, and are the more powerful weapons in the game, but with a .50% drop rate or less.
the black skull pin, aka the players pin.

the proof that you are part of the reapers game, and the only thing that keeps you from being "erased" (destroyed)

lets you read minds, imprint ideas into the minds, and was originally used to bring your spirit to the reapers game. without it, youd be in a hole. xD goodluck to any that pick up this game, youll need it if you ever leave easy mode.

Gosha Radio Practice

 my first post, i mentioned gosha radio. well, here is where i went through gosha doles animations and practiced all the eye, mouth, and hair types he has used in the past.
 i drew me too!



dont you love that last one?


GO NON SPARKLY VAMPIRES!

doodles

 This is what my teachers tend to see when i turn in papers

i have a habit of scribbling in the margins




random drawings

 nothing special, just a few random drawings. some (the cubone, and the girl thats sitting) i used reference pictures, but the others i drew freehand without any reference.




character papercrafts 2- commissioned

i showed someone my papercraft of me, and he asked for ten of them, and said he would pay me.
the ten he wanted included the following three
joker

made him, was pretty simple.. but looked too plain

so i made him EVERY mask from the bank robbery, plus i made him a plain face mask to make him look like he didnt have the cut mouth.

not shown:
made him a knife and a gun


phantom of the opera

again, was too simple to make so i added the two extra masks from the movie. they both fit semi-snuggly and look really good on him.


not shown:
i made both his and the other guys sword, as well as a rose
















scream/scary movie

the hood on this one was a pain.. but the masks werent hard. they just slip in, and it can fit all of them at once, behind the front.


not shown:
couple knives, and a extra mask that was my own design (skull)

character papercrafts

as some may know, there are paper crafts of several kingdom hearts characters floating around. well, a LONG time ago (before it got so big) i made a bunch of designs.

Heres the first five.

Coraline, sasori from naruto, random emo kid,
saiix from kingdom hearts, and zigbar from kh.
 zigbar close up. the guns were a pain!!!
 saiix close up
had to cut down the sword and hair cause i
WAY overestimated them when i drew it on
the computer
 coraline
was really simple to make, no big complaints
 sasori
same as above
 ME! ^_^
was fun to make.. .cause well, is me!
 and i got bored, so i designed a reverse bear trap like from saw!

The World Ends With You - character design

I, just like many others, ALMOST missed one of square enix's greatest masterpieces due to it not having "final fantasy" in the name.  when i started this game, i wasnt expecting a modern day japanese city setting, nor was i expecting for the main character, neku, to be dead when the story started.

I decided about a week ago to draw up some drafts of my own character in their art style...


heres theirs.

Neku







And heres mine,

psyxe


took about20 min at the most, to do several different poses... but they are taking up too much room so ill only post a few.






Letter Design



the third and final art project from last semester (that im going to post at least) is a letter design. this one... was a bit messier...







































i honestly dont know where most of this came from, but it had a fairly good effect. i put a few spades, since thats my fav playing card suit. put a few things that look like guitars, and others that vaguely look like other stringed instruments.

i think i got a B on this one. i dont remember. took about a days work, so not exactly my best effort anyways.

Skulls background- chalk pastels

Another art assignment my teacher gave me.

the instructions were to cut out a design from card stock, and to use chalk pastels by scribbling on the pattern, placing the pattern on the paper, and to smear the chalk over the paper.

i decided on a skull, and went to work. took me two days of class to do (so about an hour if you add in the time i goofed off) and it was really simple to do, just very repetitive.

















Sexy Vampire- construction paper cutout

my art teacher last semester gave us this assignment. she gave us assorted construction paper colors and told us to make a basic, simple pattern.. i went WAY beyond that.


One thing i love to do is watch flash video's by a person that calls himself "gosha dole"

the first video he did that i watched was called sexy vampire. it was more or less about a vampire who finds a girl he likes, and helps her escape the hunters that are chasing him down.


i layered several colors in the background to add a fogged effect, with a big white moon in the background.. several silver shapes with blue windows, and an explosion with blacked out windows behind it.

for the main eye catcher, i made gosha radio's "sexy vampire" outlining his black cape and his "ghost" arm (i believe thats what he called it.)




in the end, i got a 100% on the project and put it in a poster tube for storage.
