Actually I'm pretty okay with that... >_> I've got no idea what to draw anyway.

I haven't even started yet... Not sure if I'll be able to do it, because I have a lot of other stuff to do.

--
...if you know what I mean

I got lucky I guess... I made a bad choice on the last contest... Idk if I should do this one, being music inspired and all...

1) 9/10 (Good colors all around, not much to say except that it looks great i see wat u did there)

2) 7.5/10 (Not so sure about the colors you picked. Like one other guy said, the lightning could use a little more "OOMPH" like a bang. Seems like he's summoning lightning, but from the colors it almost looked as if he froze time around him. A little more "magic" would've ranked it a little higher)

3) 7.7/10 (Not much to say than the drawings this week are all pretty good)

Done, but it'll be a while before I can upload it.

Yay for Tuesday submissions.

Getting sick wasn't my plan (damn cold), so I've only done 1/3 of my drawing. Theme-wise it's fairly straightforward, so no artsy unique symbolic meaning which I am honestly bad at doing.

I better see some ****ing ponies in this round

Implying friendship is magic

Magic tricks, Magicians, Wizards, Witches, Spells, and magical girls which is technically easier because the theme isn't too open.

I think the problem is that by having this week's theme as "flight", I wouldn't be surprised if the background only consists of clouds >_>

--
...if you know what I mean

Can't help wonder why won't people just rate quickly a bunch of drawings. Maybe next time we should make a theme that would attract people into clicking the topic...

--
...if you know what I mean

Recommend a "Magic" or "Wizard/Witch" theme for next week...

Why? because I feel like drawing wizard hats.

--
...if you know what I mean

Again, I'll be using 5/10 as a base number:

1) 7.5/10 (It's well drawn, but my gripes were that the gu-- girl on the left looks like a guy, while the other 2 faeries obviously looked female... or was that intentional?)

2) 7/10 (Reminded me that I lost a bunch of Doraemon books when I moved to another house, and buying all them back will cost too much these days. That aside, it looks good)

3) 6.5/10 (This looks cool even if it's all black it shows a "clashing in the sky" theme. Would've been even cooler if you didn't go all black and add feathers falling around the birds)

4) 6/10 (The obvious magical girl witch with 4 fingers. My suggestion would be to improve the face somewhat and take your time checking through and drawing it)

5) 7/10 (I thought this was a drawing of a certain white dragon in Suikoden, until I realized the mouse and that it's a wyvern. Pretty simplistic and with some anatomy errors, but overall it's good)

6) 7/10 (The very simple art was compensated by this drawing's take on this week's theme. Penguins don't need to fly anyway dood!)

Oh yeah, I forgot about different timezones >_>

--

last few hours...

Hope everyone makes the deadline

--
...if you know what I mean

So you guys have about 12 hours left?

--
...if you know what I mean

I see. That isn't exactly good news either...

--
...if you know what I mean

Bump

Shouldn't the voting be up by now?

--
...if you know what I mean

Well, I sent mine in. It's not much though since I only have little time because of other drawing work.

--
...if you know what I mean

Wait. Do we just send our drawings to Drakeryn or what? Same rules? So images are still 800x600 right?

--
...if you know what I mean

Bump

--
...if you know what I mean

Lots of stuff and ideas and I can't pick what I shoud make... Dammit, I sometimes hate "open" themes...

--
...if you know what I mean

Sent mine >_>

--
...if you know what I mean

Almost done with mine. Hopefully this will be better than the last.

--
...if you know what I mean

I'll probably have mine up tomorrow.

--
...if you know what I mean

Just to be sure 800x600 size vertically is allowed right?

--
...if you know what I mean

Tbqh your drawing was better last time Raka.

--
...if you know what I mean

Non living as in rocks, tables, chairs, etc...?

I guess I'll have to use "that"

--
...if you know what I mean

I submitted mine, although it's a bit of a lazy job because I have other drawing related stuff to do.

--
...if you know what I mean

Okay I'm in.

I see... thanks.

The descriptions are pretty interesting to read with all the backstory and stuff

What's this? Seems interesting.

I'll think of it. If I'm not busy I guess...

Actually, Persona 3 and 4's Hard mode is where the game actually feels challenging. Normal is too easy, you heal too much and the bosses deal little damage. I've seen some bosses churning out new attacks you don't see in Normal mode.

The only thing changed is item/equipment/persona prices and difficulty IIRC which makes you use almost every equipment that the game has. Normal mode earns you items easily which makes you skip a lot of weapons and equipment. Costumes becomes useless because you can get higher ranked equipment easier in P3FES on normal

Tales of the Abyss had a large difficulty gap between Normal, Hard, and Unknown which was sometimes ridiculous during Boss fights. I think the game needs more balancing but it's good as it is already. Hard and above becomes much more reasonable once you get to New Game+

Copics are great. They make coloured manga pages look amazingly beautiful.

I'm gonna skip this topic though, since I don't really feel like doing a tatoo drawing.

The skits were voiced in the JP version of the PS2 TotA

I'll only recommend hard to veterans of the game or on New Game+ but if you're going for Unknown difficulty you better hope you have enough Grade to transfer a LOT of stuff for your playthrough.

Always SAVE after each level. It'll save you the time for restarting again.

...then blame it to the cabbages

Try to use the map to tell where you should aim your shots and if you have a lot of shots remaining go for short straight shots until you get a good angle to aim for the goal.

Spheda is fun!

Just get used to the controls and it's basically a modified golf mini-game. Starlight Canyon's spheda is hard though...

--
...then blame it to the cabbages

My preference would be (if I ever reach end-game):

Max's Gun: A machine gun and a beam gun
Max's Weapon: Either wrench or hammer would be fine

Monica's Sword: Either one or two-handed would be fine
Monica's Bracelet: Whatever

Yeah, Linda and Haloween caught me off guard on when I first played. Thankfully I got them in this restart but instead I missed the ****ing giant fish (which thankfully isn't important for inventing). I forgot how much I loved the forest dungeons in this game, and I'm now up to the Rainbow Butterfly (got to make sure getting the scoop).

--
...then blame it to the cabbages

Anyone know where do I get the "Letter" photo? I'm missing that from my album...

Also I just checked some FAQs and thankfully King Mardan (The Holy One a.k.a giant queer fish) will only be used for a temporary ability-upping potion invention recipe. You can also miss 10 scoops or 25 photos and can still get all of Donny's prizes.

I seem to be getting bad luck with crystals from chests and drops. I haven't had a SINGLE flame, power, or protector crystal in 5 hours since I fought the elephant. I got lucky by getting a Dark Coin though...

--
...then blame it to the cabbages

Well, I try to get all the scoops but just now I missed one *facepalm* the giant fish in the forest... I caught the small fish beforehand so I just talked to him instead of taking it's picture and then I SAVED MY GAME...

There's another method of getting it by using the album from another save file but it'll take too long. I was trying to get a 100% file but I guess I'll have to forget that now.

I have a feeling that the english dub altered some of the dialogue in this game. The mayor sounded like a total wimp, contrary to his facial expressions and the so called "grape juice" is obviously wine. The voice actors though, did a great job even with the altered dialogue. It's one of those games where gameplay outweighs the story (which by the way I find decent). It's more like some old school games that had emphasis on gameplay and the story is just like as for completion.

Well anyway I just got to Sindain after photo-ing the hell out of Palm Brinks. That Baron Hangin' scoop was a complete pain in the ass because it's attacks are randon and you had to be right in front of it to get the scoop. Got my first diamond earlier than last time, and I heard that the Diamond will be an essential ingredient to one of the inventions so you better save it since they're rare to come by.

--
...then blame it to the cabbages

Kinda, but not the drops. It's just the consumption of them as synthesis items for your weapons. Like sometimes you have plenty of flame crystals but what you really need is another type of crystal for your weapon. That where the crystal shop comes in. They sell crystals (around 300 gilda each IIRC) for you. Since later levelling synth weapons becomes easier, so do the amount of points for you to synthesize items to.

--
...then blame it to the cabbages

I could've sworn that I read that in one of the guides in the FAQ section... Well then I guess it's my bad.
