'Sometimes... You can cry untill there is nothing wet in you. You can scream and curse to where your throat rebels and ruptures. You can pray all you want, to whatever god you think will listen. And still, It makes no difference. It goes on, with no sign as to when it might release you. And you know that if it ever did relent... it would not be because it cared.' -Jhonen Vasquez
Moonlight Over Nagasaki Moonlight over Nagasaki A cacophany of dying screams Spinning gently to the stigma of our imperialist's white dreams Moonlight over Nagasaki We're evening the score There's no devil, there's just Enola Gay And it's coming round for more A pocketwatch clutched into my palm I watch the ashes drift away Into the moonlight, over Nagasaki The paper walls wither and sway I'm just lamenting this path that we have taken Fearing there is no return We reach so desperately for Hell But can't you see the bodies burn? Beneath the moonlight over Nagasaki Just moonlight Over Nagasaki (C) 2006 - Orion Moony ...yeh. Most recent lyrical venture on my part. One part piano cabaret, one part accoustic funeral...
Hey all, Does anyone remember Pod? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kehceg9Dq7s By golly, I do. I used to be obsessed with this and a handful of other games (Wipeout 2097, Heavy Gear II, Quake 3, Half Life 1). Since POD didn't get a lot of recognition, I thought I'd do my favorite car of the game a favor: I went fishing through the game's resource files with resedit and from the coordinates of the game model and the texture files, I have maticulously reconstructed the GAMMA: <center> Pretty, isn't she? </center> Since the publisher who made the game went under not too long ago and they didn't hold a copyright over the imagary (or the name of the car) would it be OK if I chose to remodel it in detail (down to every last...
Okay everyone. As an artist, I have to ask... Does anyone else just absolutely adore prismacolor?! :D They kick ass! I've been using them for about three years and I've never gone wrong with them! (They're just a tad bit expensive, meh...) (This thread is for general talking about art techniques!)
(Warning: Contains some spoilers on cut-scene at end of mission 2.) Curtains up. Yangfan, Merlin enter, stage left. Merlin: "Artica is defeated..." Yangfan: "Yep! We're hitting Karissa next!" Merlin: "She is furious that I sided with Karissa rather than her..." Yangfan: "Divide and conquer my friend. We only allied with Karissa so that we're not fighting them both at once. I've already positioned my men so that..." Merlin: "I made a deal with Karissa..." Yangfan: "... Wait, what? ... We're still fighting her, right? And by fight, I mean stab her in the back. Stabby stabby!" Merlin: "My people now have good land upon which to settle. Karissa's Orcs may keep their desert cities to the south. In exchange for the...
It started with me making a couple of fake cards based on the Sakura crew and expanded to an entire work-in-progress set, complete with its own game mechanics. That's right, a Star Army Magic set. There is no doubt now. I use a program called Magic Set Editor for this. It's in a useable state but it's a bit buggy. Game mechanics introduced in the currently untitled set: Keyword - Command: Representing the ability of a commander to keep their crew at their best performance, Command gives all creatures you control other than the creature with Command +1/+1. Keyword - Manifest: Several cards have the ability to produce 1/1 Nekovalkyrja Sprite tokens. But even better, is that you can replace these sprites with specialized...
Names A name conveys an image It conjures up a shape Brings to mind good memories Fun times dancing round. Names can bring up faces, Or familiar places, The aspire to be more Than script on mental paper They strive to become a part Of what you call your life. They ask of you to speak their characters, Form the word, and make the call From thought to reality Love scene to a brawl Names can be everywhere, decent or obscene But names, they hold this world together, Names are you and me.
The vehicle is broken, where to take it? The price may be wrong, but the service is right He will get it fixed for you just give him some time. You tell him its the dash, he finds that its the engine, You tell him that its the brakes, he finds its in the throttle. But when you tell him these things, he takes it all in stride He tries to fix it right, because of his mindset and his pride He never yells at you, for saying it was the brakes, When all he finds wrong is worn tires, or a clutch But yet, you find it right to yell at him, when he didnt fix it right When hes already worked fourteen hours on it, and only got paid for five. You find it right to yell at him, when he has done his best, going off what you told him, not...
Feedback appreciated. (This scene takes place within a hospital bedroom. Two white beds sit in the corner with blue sheets and blue pillows and blankets, able to be separated with a curtain, also blue. Next to both beds lie a nightstand, filled to the edges with get well cards, flowers, and balloons. There is one bathroom, strangely, and very little space to move about around the beds. The two television sets, hanging from the ceiling, battle each other over whose voice could be more piercing.) (In one bed, sleeping, lay one female child, about 6 years of age. In the other, staring into the sky is another child, a male, about 17 years of age. Both are currently breathing through oxygen masks, panting heavily.) Enter one...
http://castleparadox.com/download.php?game=800 This is a game about Macbeth that I did for English. Specifically, Act V, Scene VIII. Spent a good deal of time on this and got an A+. It's a short game because a scene in Macbeth isn't very long, that and I couldn't sit there playing a game for hours in front of the class presenting it. If you have a spare 10 minutes, give it a go, it's only about 1 mb unzipped, and it's pretty short. The zip includes a copy of the game, the executable, and a .sav file, due to the lack of a menu screen. Requirements: -Windows (or Linux, but you would have to get a Linux version of OHRRPGCE, http://hamsterrepublic.com/ohrrpgce/index.php/Main_Page.html which is the program used to make it.)...
Obese Obscenity Yes, this is to you, lady in the giant hummer This is to you kid that could roll faster than walk This is to you, when you find that you are wider than you are tall. When i walk the streets, or drive around town, I cannot help but notice the sheer weight that we as humans exert on this earth. We drive vehicles that weigh 2, 3, and even 4 tons. Bigger is supposedly better in this crazy world that we call home. The people that drive some of these vehicles are not much better when it comes to weight either. Some of these people are in excess of 400 pounds. Yes, just short of 3 times what I weigh. They eat fast food, drive gas guzzlers, drink big gulps, and sleep in California King beds. You tell your...
http://www.myspace.com/lyzation Should begin playing automatically - this is me and my partner-in-rhyme Lyzation together on a track produced by Pittsburgh producer INFO (produced tracks for Dipset, etc.). Just launched this as a radio single regionally and hopefully, if our connect comes through, it'll be getting play in all six national markets. If we're really lucky, the track'll blow up enough that we'll actually get a music video for it. But anyway, here's a chance to check out the not so nerdy things I do. Lyzation raps first, I rap second.
Feedback wanted. Story is supposed to be mysterious and unravel slowly. Aeacus Adoro Fabella N Domus N I don’t remember my reason for doing this anymore. I do it because…I have nothing else… Why is it that those who fight for the sake of others never receive proper award?… If this world is hell, then the gods must be kinder than everyone thinks… Be it as it may, I refuse to back down. I’ll fight until the bitter end…even for those who would rather see me hang… An astranged world this is…where the taking of another’s life is more important than the conservation of the same. … I wish that everyone could just be happy. I’m tired of the sky pouring tears of sorrow unto my head. People are always...
COMMISSIONING INFO The service I offer: I am currently offering to make character artwork or 3d modeling/texturing commissions. Character artwork can either depict your character in a bust/chest area or upward, a whole body shot, a model sheet or a scene. These will usually be print resolution (about 8.5x11in at 150 dpi). My artstyle is currently heavily anime inspired, but I also took figurative drawing classes so I can go for more realistic. I use a cell-shaded coloring style with softer edges. In the instance of a 3d model (preferably an object, not a living being) I can build up a mesh and texture it to flesh out whatever you wish to have me flesh out with my polygonal-shaping skills (along with diffuse/bump and...
5 flights both ways per week. I seen this little corner of space so much that I think I could fly this thing with my eyes closed. 8 light-seconds, Earth to Luna. On the cosmic scale, that's barely a hiccup. I do less than most suborbital transport pilots. Plot course, make occasional corrections so we don't crash into space rocks, and then spend the next 3 hours drinking with my co-pilot and mingling with the bluebloods in first-class. It's only 3 hours now. These new neutrino engines are damned ingenious. I was talking with a science-type about a week ago who explained to me how it all worked. Don't know what half of it means but damn, it's a lot faster. "See, first they figured out how to produce neutrinos. Otherwise we'd be...
Ahem... Bitter Seeds, by Some Random Emo (Me) All the divine essence of my life Has become bloodstained edges Tear-drenched pillows And withered petals Without you… Amazing incandescence… Perplexing shadiness… I fall victim to the curse and the plague that is you Incurable, unassailable, unquestionable passion Ignoble, inadmissible, uncomforting passion I fall victim to the curse and the plague that is love In you the aria of amity In you the dirge of discontent In you the glorious portrait of perfection In you the constraining delusion of delirium In you…the completion of this awkward chimera Every ounce of your spirit A rose blackened by the shadow of death I can feel your heart pounding within mine All the hatred, all...
I know that some people have some (avaters) and others just get them for when needed. I have a large amount of them and it's always growing, and the thought about sharing them with people who might want them to use hit me not long ago. Maybe it isn't one of my best idea's but it's a helpful one none the less. So I will soon start posting some of my own avatars that I have found or made from images mostly manga and anime focused and I might soon move into other areas with it (depending on how it goes.)
These have been approved by Zakalwe as accurate art that can be used with the Equine and Forin applications, so that's two less that have to be drawn. The grill is for easy access repair and maintenance, while the "headlights" are actually sensors and/or parts of the deflector array. The Equine has a slight 70s semi-truck feel to it, but not so much so to cease making it look like a spaceship. Equine: Forin
Okay, so...I want to make a new species. Don't worry, I'm not going to post it for a while, so no need to fret about that. But, I have a concept of what the creatures of my species would look like, and I would like to know if it would be acceptable in the future sometime. The race is called the Valon. And sorry for the distortion, I did it in paint.
Wes posted that there's a need for Nepleslian Propoganda War. Here's my first battle anthem suggestion: Battle of the Nepleslians Assaulted by corrupt waves of wildest hailstorms Surrounded by the swarms of hungry, rabid timber wolves, Empires swore allegiance to destroy our holy might And we all knew: here begins the fight for our lives. Refr.: ----------------------------------- We stood against great odds Fought with no matter what In our pure hearts the goal, Like a lit torch, it glowed! All who oppose us We shall show no mercy For there’s a rule that binds Throughout life, we must fight! ------------------------------------ Rusty shackles of war have bent our weary backs Yet we still hoped for our deserved victory so...
Hey all, I've just been goofing around again and mid-way through illustrating a catgirl a very strange thing happened and my fingers gave birth to this strangely entertaining abomination. Rather than put it down, I thought I'd share it with you and ask your thoughts. Note the left arm is disconnected and the grey things are an enclosure for the pilot's own legs, the armor a good 7 meters in height.
Something I did in Flash as a bit of spare time work. It's some reference to my character named after my username which is named after me. (Wasn't bothered thinking of a name, so I used my own!) One problem with the picture is transparency. It was intentional, and you can't quite see the text. It's up on the imageboards too if you want to read what's up there. (Which isn't much) Also, some general comments are welcome too! --Luca Pavone
*sits down on stool* Chrome Eggs and Spam by me Would you like some chrome eggs and spam? Would you like some, Taisa Pam? No I don’t like chrome eggs and spam! I don’t like it! Pam I am! Would you like them in a chair? While a Neko combs your beautiful hair? No I don’t like them in a chair! While a Neko combs my beautiful hair! No I don’t like chrome eggs and spam! I don’t like it! Pam I am! Would you like them baked in the oven? While your heart is charmed with three Nekos’ coven? No I don’t like them baked in the oven! While my heart is charmed with three Nekos’ coven! No I don’t like chrome eggs and spam! I don’t like it! Pam I am! Would you like them with a gavel? While a Neko...
Officer. https://stararmy.com/starchan/character_art/src/1159292179767.jpg Enlisted. ( Officer minus tie, coat and double belt ) https://stararmy.com/starchan/character_art/src/1159292261225.jpg I originally intended this for the SAoN, but before I submit these to the "New Additions" board, I would like to see come comments first. Do speak away, I wount prosecute you ;p.
I have an new idea of a forum/site theme: It'd feature a friendly orange sun rising over a teal ocean at the top. Most of the content areas would be a light teal with black text, while the background would be a deeper teal. All exterior corners would be rounded and links contained within little rounded rectangles. Thoughts? (Inspired by this topic)
Alright, so here's the deal: Star Army is currently going through the summer slump that all online RPGs go through every year. There are too few RP posts each day and several of the plots have died. Since the 4chan ads have ceased, the influx of new players has slowed to nothingness. The players who stuck around are excellent, but I feel it's time to expand this circle of friends, or at least make up for the roleplayers lost over the inevitable real-life schedule conflicts and such. We're doing well, but I think we could do better. What we need is some new players. I'm going to be shelling out some serious cash for advertising, but it's not going to work if the forums aren't active and inviting. So, what I need is for everyone to be...
These are screenshots of a 3-D Yggdrasill made in GameStudio A5's WED. Not the newest program out there, as it can run on a P-II, but it's fun to play with. These are in PNG format, and combined the pictures are less than 500K. Note: SRSS-000 may not be the final designation number of the Yggdrasill.
Hey all. Just been goofing around in OpenCanvas. Being my first registered day, I thought I'd share what I'd done with you. <center> Click to view full version If there'a anything you dislike, do tell. :3 </center> Oh! And I was wondering if I could sit on a roleplay and see what your style is like, if that's okay...
