        <media:copyright url="http://meibatsu.deviantart.com">Copyright 2013 =Meibatsu</media:copyright>            <media:description type="html"><![CDATA[ June 16, 2013.<br /><br />Paint Tool SAI, ballpoint pen.<br /><br />So after I played OFF and thinking on its coolness factor and how The Batter uses a bat, and then thinking about Earthbound where Ness also uses a bat, and then thinking about Shonen Bat from Paranoia Agent using a bat and how each one of those are surreal and cool&hellip; //rambles<br /><br />I was thinking how cool it would be to draw a character swinging around a bat too! But then I thought &ldquo;maybe that&rsquo;s too much of an idea-steal&rdquo; so I thought &ldquo;what else is cool to swing around to hurt people with?&rdquo; and I guess my next thought was a guitar because they are so cool and metal. LOL<br /><br />And then I wanted to draw Heimdl because let&rsquo;s be honest, I like drawing him, and a guitar is likely the only instrument he knows how to play after living billions of years, but he&rsquo;s not even very good so he&rsquo;d be swinging it around beating people up with it instead. &gt;___&gt;<br /><br />FAST FORWARD TO TODAY!<br /><br />I was talking to a friend about how she can up her cool cred if she just made a character with a guitar so it gave her an excuse to research band stuff and be extra punk metal, reminding me again how I wanted to draw Heimdl with a guitar. And then I stumbled on this thread on GAF <a class="external" href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=592906">[link]</a> showing this clip about two metalhead 6th graders who have the dream of being famous rock stars while growing up in a hip-hop centered neighbourhood/community <a class="external" href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://vimeo.com/68177758#">[link]</a> . AND IT&rsquo;S REALLY CUTE AND ONLY A FEW MINUTES GO WATCH.<br /><br />So I was finally like &ldquo;I WANT TO PROCRASTINATE SOME MORE AND NOT PLAN ANY WEDDING STUFF SO LET&rsquo;S FINALLY DRAW THAT HEIMDL PICTURE&rdquo;.<br /><br />Welp. It&rsquo;s not Heimdl because that&rsquo;s enough of parading around white dudes as cool despite their lack of colour when I have the perfect minority character that fulfills the role in multiple ways.<br />It&rsquo;s ASFIR~!

            <description><![CDATA[ June 16, 2013.<br /><br />Paint Tool SAI, ballpoint pen.<br /><br />So after I played OFF and thinking on its coolness factor and how The Batter uses a bat, and then thinking about Earthbound where Ness also uses a bat, and then thinking about Shonen Bat from Paranoia Agent using a bat and how each one of those are surreal and cool&hellip; //rambles<br /><br />I was thinking how cool it would be to draw a character swinging around a bat too! But then I thought &ldquo;maybe that&rsquo;s too much of an idea-steal&rdquo; so I thought &ldquo;what else is cool to swing around to hurt people with?&rdquo; and I guess my next thought was a guitar because they are so cool and metal. LOL<br /><br />And then I wanted to draw Heimdl because let&rsquo;s be honest, I like drawing him, and a guitar is likely the only instrument he knows how to play after living billions of years, but he&rsquo;s not even very good so he&rsquo;d be swinging it around beating people up with it instead. &gt;___&gt;<br /><br />FAST FORWARD TO TODAY!<br /><br />I was talking to a friend about how she can up her cool cred if she just made a character with a guitar so it gave her an excuse to research band stuff and be extra punk metal, reminding me again how I wanted to draw Heimdl with a guitar. And then I stumbled on this thread on GAF <a class="external" href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=592906">[link]</a> showing this clip about two metalhead 6th graders who have the dream of being famous rock stars while growing up in a hip-hop centered neighbourhood/community <a class="external" href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://vimeo.com/68177758#">[link]</a> . AND IT&rsquo;S REALLY CUTE AND ONLY A FEW MINUTES GO WATCH.<br /><br />So I was finally like &ldquo;I WANT TO PROCRASTINATE SOME MORE AND NOT PLAN ANY WEDDING STUFF SO LET&rsquo;S FINALLY DRAW THAT HEIMDL PICTURE&rdquo;.<br /><br />Welp. It&rsquo;s not Heimdl because that&rsquo;s enough of parading around white dudes as cool despite their lack of colour when I have the perfect minority character that fulfills the role in multiple ways.<br />It&rsquo;s ASFIR~! Everyone&rsquo;s actual favourite blacksmith because he&rsquo;s not as big a jerkhole~! XD Plus I imagine he can actually play the guitar and he&rsquo;s not an enemy of wearing colours.<br /><br />Quota filled and procrastination completed~!

They had stayed up all night to finalise some kind of schedule for the upcoming year and what will and won't happen at the stables. Some things Diego full on declined, but some, he smiled and accepted them without breaking a sweat. Isaac was pleased.<br /><br />"What are you doing, daddy?" A chirping, optimistic voice sounded from somewhere below the brunette. Isaac looked down, gently patting his daughter's head.<br /><br />"Plotting, sweetie."<br /><br />"Pl-plotting? What does that mean?" Viv chirped, hanging on his arm.<br /><br />"Daddy's got a big brain full of big ideas, Viv." Isaac replied, smilling. "Plotting means putting the ideas together and making a big tasty cake out of them."<br /><br />Vivian looked up at him with endless confusion, Isaac had to take a mental photo of that. "How's that even possible, dad. You can't make a cake out of an idea, you silly."<br /><br />Isaac huffed out a genuine laugh and patted her once more. Vivian looked deep in thought for a moment, her brows coming together as she was trying to imagine how could that possibly work.<br /><br />"I want cake." She said finally, letting go of her father's arm. Isaac winked at her.<br /><br />"You have to be a good girl then." His phone ringed then and his mind snapped back into business mode again. "Vivian, I have something important to do now, you can go, prank Sam if you want."<br /><br />"But Sam is a meanie!" Vivian pouted, frowning back at her dad.<br /><br />Isaac grinned, taking the phone out of his pocket. "Then it's a challenge for you to make him laugh, isn't it."<br /><br />Vivian took a moment to think about it before nodding and lifting up her nose in an accepting manner. "Okay, but I still want the cake."<br /><br />As she ran off, Isaac finally pushed a button on his phone, lifting it up to his ear. <br /><br />"Yes?"<br /><br />"They're here." Diego's voice sounded through the connection and Isaac had to smile for himself. It's on.<br /><br />"I'm at the balcony, send whoever wants to speak to me upstairs, will you?"<br /><br />"Understood." Diego replied and the phone buzzed off.<br /><br />The Fallen Angel boss smirked, hiding his cell phone and leaning on the balcony wall. He had the papers there, the contracts, everything. Everything was on the move and he had been pleased with himself. Everything was going smoothly. Last he had to do now was having this talk.<br /><br />Damon felt some wind of change in FAS' atmosphere that maybe the new boss brought with him. He stepped on the balcony and was eager to finally meet that guy who dared to run such a successful stable all of sudden. "Good evening sir, glad we could arrange this meeting" he was hiding a grin, of course he was excited about the upcomming happenings.<br /><br />Isaac tilted his head, giving a slight smile as he pushed himself off the wall, walking up to meet the other man half way. "Isaac Lorraine," He introduced himself, offering a hand. "So am I, so am I. I Hope you haven't had any trouble on the way here?"<br /><br />"Damon Rodriguez, pleasure to meet you" he shook his hand and kinda scanned his eyes in hope he'd figure out what kind of man Isaac is "Not at all, it is almost getting rather comfortable to come to FAS, surely not the first time. Thank you for the invitation. Excuse my partner, he is about to check out those Angel Warmbloods everyone is talking about lately"<br /><br />Isaac chuckled at the remark. "Angel warmbloods? Now that's a name for them I'll have to note down. It's a fitting one indeed." He walked back to the wall, leaning his back on it again. He glanced at Damon, then at the papers by his hand and tapped them with his fingers. "He's excused as long as you're the one who's gonna be in charge of the paper talk. Now the biggest question," He sighed at that and looked Damon dead in the eye. "is if you're absolutely sure that you and your stable wants to do this. The event is a big one, obviously, it's going to be a lot of stress, work and of course, money. If it wasn't for the situation Fallen Angel is in, I wouldn't have to bring this upon someone else's shoulders."<br /><br />He joined Isaac and listened closely, he was very sure RPS could handle an event of this size and nodded determined. "We are glad carrying along the torch this year, it will be an honour, but also a challenge to do the perfection justice that FAS brought up last year. I can assure you tough, we will gather a crew of responsible partners as well to make everything run smoothly". He smiled "will make it easier for your stable to compete finally as well without all the stress."<br /><br />The brunette nodded with a faint smile. "I sure hope some of our riders will show this year. Well... That's that, then." He leaned to pick up the papers and gave them to Damon. "This is the contract for the 2013 Olympics, mr. Rodriguez. Everything you need to know is written in there and by signing it your stables be the official host this year."<br /><br />He just let a glance fly over the documents and was impressed this was actually happening. Hosting the Olympics, a funny surreal thought. <br />"Well then, imma say let the games find it's beginning", a smirk was written all over his face while signing the contract.<br /> <br /></blockquote><br /><b>Next:</b><br /></sub><br /><br />&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#2972;&#1769;&#1758;&#1769;&#2972;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;&#9644;<br /><br /><u>-Tools Of Trade-</u><br />Paint Tool Sai ; GIMP 2.0<br />Wacom Intuos4 S A6<br />art and Isaac &copy; Michelle Gr&uuml;n aka =<a class="u" href="http://noblestallion.deviantart.com">noblestallion</a> <br />Damon and his text &copy; *<a class="u" href="http://abosz007.deviantart.com">abosz007</a><br /><br /><b>Follow me on tumblr to see sketches, wips and unposted art - <a class="external" href="http://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://thepudingist.tumblr.com/">[link]</a> </b><br /><br /><br /><blockquote>All Rights reserved.

After going through my DVDs, looking through movies I'd love to start off with, I figured I would start off with a relatively unknown, truly one of a kind gem.<br /><br /><br /><br />The year is 1929. With Nosferatu, London After Midnight, and the stage version of Dracula out, vampires were all the rage. After finishing the masterpiece, "Passion of Joan of Arc", Carl T. Dreyer started his plan to break new ground on the horror genre.<br /><br />In 1932, he gave the world the surreal nightmare, "Vampyr".<br /><br />Like most films that are so innovative and ahead of it's time, it was universally panned and booed by audiences and critics upon release, causing Dreyer to immediately re-cut and edit the film. With the original version lost, this is the only version we have left of the nightmare.<br /><br /><br /><br />DVD PRESENTATION<br /><br />I have the Criterion Collection 2 disc DVD which comes with the following...<br />+The 1932, 73 minute, German version.<br />+Edited version with English text<br />+Commentary by Tony Rayns<br />+1966 documentary of the director Carl Dreyer and his film career<br />+Slide show of the making and influence of Vampyr, narrated by Casper Tybjerg<br />+1958 radio broadcast of Dreyer talking about film making<br />+Original script of Vampyr<br />+Essay of the film restoration<br />+Written interview of producer and lead actor Nicolas de Gunzburg<br />+The story "Carmilla", which is one of the inspirations of the film<br /><br />Obviously the people at Criterion went up and beyond on this set.<br /><br />So let's get started!<br /><br /><br />STORY AND VISUALS:9<br /><br />Normally these categories would be separate, but for this movie, the visuals are the story.<br /><br />The movie starts us off with with a spider web covered prologue, ""This is the tale of the strange adventures of young Allan Gray, who immersed himself in the study of devil worship and vampires. Preoccupied with superstitions of centuries past, he became a dreamer, for whom the line between the real and the supernatural became blurred." Now we see our main character, Allan Gray, walking to a hotel. The hotel sign has a silhouette of an angel standing on it, holding a wreath, reaching it out towards the white sky. He turns, eyeing an old man on a dock with a scythe summoning the ferryboat with a bell. Allen then walks inside and is guided to his room. Inside he looks out the window at the man with the scythe crossing the river by ferry, glaring back at him from afar.<br /><br />I was immediately hooked.<br /><br />The film's plot is very small and plain. Simply, it's Allan finding an almost ruined family who is being attacked by a vampire and her henchman. Ladidah! Happy ending! Nothing great until you realize this is NOT the story of the movie. Here's why the film is so innovative, even by today's standard of filmmaking. The director resisted putting in a straightforward plot line, to where much of the movie is unexplainable and doesn't make sense if viewed as a conventional movie. Instead, he cleverly breaks the rules of movie storytelling by showing us abstract symbolism of these scenes, then asks you, the viewer, to make the story by how you interpret the visuals in the movie. How much of what you see in the movie is reality is up to you. Because of this, people back then didn't get it, not knowing that this is how the movie worked.<br /><br />Now because the viewers interpret the story by how they see it, the story is different from person to person. Here's some different ways I interpreted what's really happening...<br /><br />WARNING! SPOILERS!<br /><br />#1) The whole film is nothing more than Allan Gray's dream of having an adventure into the occult world he longs to be apart of.<br /><br />#2 and my favorite interpretation) The people in the village Allan adventures in has a plague or are being poisoned by the doctor, killing everyone including him. Therefore the whole film is Allan Gray's dieing hallucination, showing the moments leading to his death and trying to make sense of them with his occult addicted imagination.<br /><br />Now for just the visuals.<br /><br />Even though this is an independent film, the movie feels rich with elegant detail. Using all locations gave the film a natural, organic grittiness that sells the surreal effects of the movie very well. Bringing in the set maker who did Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, he shows his mastery in this film, making sure that most of the interior sets look cluttered and claustrophobic. The cinematography is also very astounding, showing erratic continuity and odd angles which adds a level of unnerving and distortion to the film. Another thing the camera does is refuse the viewer of getting a sense of direction, giving the feeling of being lost, adding isolation in the mix. All the interiors in the film feel like a warped labyrinth because of this. Though one sequence has all of the angles matching up and more natural camerawork, the scene with Allan being sealed into the coffin and being carried off, which supports my second interpretation of the movie. The exteriors were all glazed with a film of white which is sometimes viewed as a bad film transfer, but actually was done deliberately. Some people say this was achieved by putting thin gauze over the lens, others say they overexposed the film. I cannot tell which.<br /><br />The effects work is very stunning. First effect we see is the reflection of a peg legged musket man in the river walking, yet the reflection has no master controlling it. The reflection turns into a shadow in an abandoned factory, looking for it's master and then hosting onto him. This whole sequence was phenomenal and seamlessly done. Along with shadow work, we have lots of ghost effects by double exposure and dissolve transformations. My favorite effect would have to be a deformed baby skeleton casting the shadow of crow's wings behind it along with skulls that turn to look at the vampire coming into the room.<br /><br />Editing in this movie was good and adds to the innovative storytelling of the film. For example, when one of the characters collapses and slowly dies, it inter cuts repeatingly to a knocked over candle slowly burning more and more of the wax, symbolizing that his time was running out.<br /><br />SOUND:8<br /><br />The people at criterion did a very great job remastering the audio. I did not hear one crackle or pop that you get from older films.<br /><br />Considering that this film was made back when sound films were relatively new, and made in Europe where the sound technology was terribly lagged, what we have is pretty brilliant. First off, we have a full musical score playing throughout the movie, nonetheless, actually in sync with what's on screen and adding to it. Nothing special now, but think back that just a year earlier, both Dracula and Frankenstein only had a theme play at the title screen and credits, between those, nothing.<br /><br />They filmed the movie using silent cameras and added the audio in post using experimental sound equipment. They had complete control over the sound. Though, because of this, all the dialogue, what little they had, was dubbed. Sometimes it was spot on, other times it was off, but it worked for this kind of movie where everything is supposed to be warped. Speaking about warped audio, most of the movie feels like they intentionally left out sounds, example, whenever they are by the river, you don't hear the sounds of running water. You don't even hear footsteps in the whole movie. Is this a bad thing? No, it's a pretty clever way to make the world in the movie more odd and surreal, it also, in a way, makes you watch the visuals more closely. And now that I think about it, they heightened the sounds you do hear even more, adding to my point.<br /><br />A very interesting take of sound in movies at the time.<br /><br />PERFORMANCES:8<br /><br />Even though this is 1930s acting, and the movie is mostly made of amateur actors, it all works for this movie. The offbeat acting blends in with the dreamlike quality and sometimes adds to it. I have no complaints here.<br /><br />FINAL THOUGHTS<br /><br />Vampyr is one of the few movies I know where all the elements in it fit perfectly. However, because this movie is so unconventional, most people won't get what the movie asks of them story-wise. With it's slow pace, no action, and barely any moments with the vampire, this movie is not made for everyone. Yet, if your the person who enjoys movies that toy with your mind and makes you apart of the film, you'll love this movie.<br /><br />I hope in the future it can be viewed as the masterpiece it is, yet, I cannot see that happening soon with how ahead of it's time it is, even by our time.<br /><br /><br /><br />And there's my first movie review! Feel free to critique respectively and give suggestions for future reviews you'd like to see! ]]></media:description>            <media:thumbnail url="http://th04.deviantart.net/fs71/150/f/2013/162/f/6/kane_s_movie_review__vampyr_by_aquavore35-d68o6ns.jpg" height="118" width="150"/>            <media:thumbnail url="http://th01.deviantart.net/fs71/300W/f/2013/162/f/6/kane_s_movie_review__vampyr_by_aquavore35-d68o6ns.jpg" height="236" width="300"/>            <media:content url="http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/162/f/6/kane_s_movie_review__vampyr_by_aquavore35-d68o6ns.jpg" height="643" width="816" medium="image"/>

            <description><![CDATA[ My first movie review! After going through my DVDs, looking through movies I'd love to start off with, I figured I would start off with a relatively unknown, truly one of a kind gem. <br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />The year is 1929. With Nosferatu, London After Midnight, and the stage version of Dracula out, vampires were all the rage. After finishing the masterpiece, "Passion of Joan of Arc", Carl T. Dreyer started his plan to break new ground on the horror genre.<br /><br />In 1932, he gave the world the surreal nightmare, "Vampyr".<br /><br />Like most films that are so innovative and ahead of it's time, it was universally panned and booed by audiences and critics upon release, causing Dreyer to immediately re-cut and edit the film. With the original version lost, this is the only version we have left of the nightmare. <br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br /> DVD PRESENTATION<br /><br />I have the Criterion COllection 2 disc DVD which comes with the following...<br />+The 1932, 73 minute, German version.<br />+Edited version with English text<br />+Commentary by Tony Rayns<br />+1966 documentary of the director Carl Dreyer and his film career<br />+Slide show of the making and influence of Vampyr, narrated by Casper Tybjerg<br />+1958 radio broadcast of Dreyer talking about film making<br />+Original script of Vampyr<br />+Essay of the film restoration<br />+Written interview of producer and lead actor Nicolas de Gunzburg<br />+The story "Carmilla", which is one of the inspirations of the film<br /><br />Obviously the people at Criterion went up and beyond on this set.<br /><br />So let's get started!<br /><br /><br /> STORY AND VISUALS:9<br /><br />Normally these categories would be separate, but for this movie, the visuals are the story. <br /><br />The movie starts us off with with a spider web covered prologue, ""This is the tale of the strange adventures of young Allan Gray, who immersed himself in the study of devil worship and vampires. Preoccupied with superstitions of centuries past, he became a dreamer, for whom the line between the real and the supernatural became blurred." Now we see our main character, Allan Gray, walking to a hotel. The hotel sign has a silhouette of an angel standing on it, holding a wreath, reaching it out towards the white sky. He turns, eyeing an old man on a dock with a scythe summoning the ferryboat with a bell. Allen then walks inside and is guided to his room. Inside he looks out the window at the man with the scythe crossing the river by ferry, glaring back at him from afar. <br /><br />I was immediately hooked. <br /><br />The film's plot is very small and plain. Simply, it's Allan finding an almost ruined family who is being attacked by a vampire and her henchman. Ladidah! Happy ending! Nothing great until you realize this is NOT the story of the movie. Here's why the film is so innovative, even by today's standard of filmmaking. The director resisted putting in a straightforward plot line, to where much of the movie is unexplainable and doesn't make sense if viewed as a conventional movie. Instead, he cleverly breaks the rules of movie storytelling by showing us abstract symbolism of these scenes, then asks you, the viewer, to make the story by how you interpret the visuals in the movie. How much of what you see in the movie is reality is up to you. Because of this, people back then didn't get it, not knowing that this is how the movie worked. <br /><br />Now because the viewers interpret the story by how they see it, the story is different from person to person. Here's some different ways I interpreted what's really happening...<br /><br />WARNING! SPOILERS!<br /><br />#1) The whole film is nothing more than Allan Gray's dream of having an adventure into the occult world he longs to be apart of.<br /><br />#2 and my favorite interpretation) The people in the village Allan adventures in has a plague or are being poisoned by the doctor, killing everyone including him. Therefore the whole film is Allan Gray's dieing hallucination, showing the moments leading to his death and trying to make sense of them with his occult addicted imagination.<br /><br />Now for just the visuals.<br /><br />Even though this is an independent film, the movie feels rich with elegant detail. Using all locations gave the film a natural, organic grittiness that sells the surreal effects of the movie very well. Bringing in the set maker who did Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, he shows his mastery in this film, making sure that most of the interior sets look cluttered and claustrophobic. The cinematography is also very astounding, showing erratic continuity and odd angles which adds a level of unnerving and distortion to the film. Another thing the camera does is refuse the viewer of getting a sense of direction, giving the feeling of being lost, adding isolation in the mix. All the interiors in the film feel like a warped labyrinth because of this. Though one sequence has all of the angles matching up and more natural camerawork, the scene with Allan being sealed into the coffin and being carried off, which supports my second interpretation of the movie. The exteriors were all glazed with a film of white which is sometimes viewed as a bad film transfer, but actually was done deliberately. Some people say this was achieved by putting thin gauze over the lens, others say they overexposed the film. I cannot tell which. <br /><br />The effects work is very stunning. First effect we see is the reflection of a peg legged musket man in the river walking, yet the reflection has no master controlling it. The reflection turns into a shadow in an abandoned factory, looking for it's master and then hosting onto him. This whole sequence was phenomenal and seamlessly done. Along with shadow work, we have lots of ghost effects by double exposure and dissolve transformations. My favorite effect would have to be a deformed baby skeleton casting the shadow of crow's wings behind it along with skulls that turn to look at the vampire coming into the room. <br /><br />Editing in this movie was good and adds to the innovative storytelling of the film. For example, when one of the characters collapses and slowly dies, it inter cuts repeatingly to a knocked over candle slowly burning more and more of the wax, symbolizing that his time was running out.<br /><br /> SOUND:8<br /><br />The people at criterion did a very great job remastering the audio. I did not hear one crackle or pop that you get from older films.<br /><br />Considering that this film was made back when sound films were relatively new, and made in Europe where the sound technology was terribly lagged, what we have is pretty brilliant. First off, we have a full musical score playing throughout the movie, nonetheless, actually in sync with what's on screen and adding to it. Nothing special now, but think back that just a year earlier, both Dracula and Frankenstein only had a theme play at the title screen and credits, between those, nothing. <br /> <br />They filmed the movie using silent cameras and added the audio in post using experimental sound equipment. They had complete control over the sound. Though, because of this, all the dialogue, what little they had, was dubbed. Sometimes it was spot on, other times it was off, but it worked for this kind of movie where everything is supposed to be warped. Speaking about warped audio, most of the movie feels like they intentionally left out sounds, example, whenever they are by the river, you don't hear the sounds of running water. You don't even hear footsteps in the whole movie. Is this a bad thing? No, it's a pretty clever way to make the world in the movie more odd and surreal, it also, in a way, makes you watch the visuals more closely. And now that I think about it, they heightened the sounds you do hear even more, adding to my point. <br /><br />A very interesting take of sound in movies at the time. <br /><br />PERFORMANCES:8<br /><br />Even though this is 1930s acting, and the movie is mostly made of amateur actors, it all works for this movie. The offbeat acting blends in with the dreamlike quality and sometimes adds to it. I have no complaints here. <br /><br />FINAL THOUGHTS<br /><br />Vampyr is one of the few movies I know where all the elements in it fit perfectly. However, because this movie is so unconventional, most people won't get what the movie asks of them story-wise. With it's slow pace, no action, and barely any moments with the vampire, this movie is not made for everyone. Yet, if your the person who enjoys movies that toy with your mind and makes you apart of the film, you'll love this movie.<br /><br />I hope in the future it can be viewed as the masterpiece it is, yet, I cannot see that happening soon with how ahead of it's time it is, even by our time. <br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />And there's my first movie review!

All five of her senses are dull and blurry; she distinguishes her surroundings with a sixth sense: gut feeling, as she calls it. Basically, she acts upon instinct. Whatever clothing she wears loses color, as though conforming to her indifference.<br /><br />Bio: Before death, Shiku lived in a rural town. Having been abandoned at birth and raised by beggars, she did not have any desires, save her insatiable hunger. The beggars took turns feeding Shiku and providing her with shelters. Although the beggars loved Shiku like a family, Shiku never loved them back--at least, not on the surface. After all, she could only make three expressions: sleepy stare, blank stare, and hungry stare. Her obedient nature often misled others into thinking that she was considerate and well-behaved, but in reality, she was simply passive. She learned that obeying the beggars and other passersby resulted in food, so she did as she was told. Everything seemed colorless to Shiku, and she never felt any attachment toward her surroundings. She would often wander in search for "something that Shiku lacks," which the beggars made her look for every day. The truth was that the beggars wanted Shiku to discover a desire, a preference with which she may identify herself. They were afraid that Shiku's lack of emotion and reason may leave her vulnerable. In fact, the children and adults were afraid of Shiku's surreal demeanor already and attempted to drive her out into the forest. Shiku never thought anything of others' abuses, never blamed anyone, never trusted anyone. The only trust she had were of patterns: obey to get food, be quiet to avoid getting abused, sit still to be found after getting lost, etc. Without event, Shiku turned sixteen. One day, Shiku was sitting still under a tree after getting lost in the forest. She figured the beggars would come and give her food again; however, no one came. At midnight, Shiku started nodding as sleep came to question her. In her sleep, she heard "kill...no..." (Later when she was working as a shinigami, Shiku found out that her town was wiped out in a raid by bandits, though at the time, she had no idea of what had happened) The bandits carried Shiku with them and made her work at their hideout. Shiku was feeling "oddly empty" after discovering that one of her patterns came out to be false: no one came to find her. Shiku worked obediently every day. Soon, the bandits became fond of her serene air and pretty face. The bandits treated her like their own family--Shiku saw them as reappearance of the beggars. Yamato, the leader of the bandits, took an especial liking toward Shiku, which promptly became love. When Yamato proposed marriage to Shiku, Shiku simply accepted the "request which Shiku did not understand." Although he showed deep love for Shiku for two years, Yamato could not help feeling disappointed with her lack of reaction. Soon, the leader had affairs with a different woman whom he had captured in a raid. One night, Shiku was out wandering about the hideout again and saw Yamato sleeping with the captured woman. She walked to Yamato to wake him up because his pattern for sleeping was not in accordance with her memory. Yamato woke up and was shocked that he had been discovered. Shiku told him to "sleep in the bed like Yamato always does." Then, Shiku went to Yamato's bed and slept. Next morning, Yamato came back to his room with the woman and woke up Shiku. He then gave Shiku a tanto. "Stab yourself three times, and I will give you food," he told Shiku. Shiku was hungry, so she took the order obediently. After stabbing herself two times, she barely managed to take the tanto out of her stomach. Shiku felt an unfamiliar tugging at the bottom of her throat, and was "intrigued by the sensation." When Shiku lifted the tanto again for the third stab, however, she felt as though a "creature" was eating up all the food inside her stomach. Desperate, Shiku placed the point of the blade on her stomach and lied face down. Her weight forcefully drove the blade in, and Shiku felt chilly because of the "cold metal." Her last words were: "I'm hungry."<br /> Shiku worked diligently as a shinigami. After all, it was another pattern to satisfy her hunger which "even transcended death." She never did anything eventful, however, and was always kept in quiet because of her personality. Those around her saw this a waste of talent and deemed it unfair to only keep her unoccupied. As a result, she was dispatched to fight during the war with quincy. Unfortunately, quincies were intelligent enough to figure out Shiku's weak sense of self and used it against her. Shiku believed that "hunger is betraying Shiku yet again" and decided to flee because she would not be able to fulfill her quest for "the lack and hunger." She hid herself from the quincy and the shinigami and wandered around the world in search of "food." Numerous sightings of a wandering ghost soon ensued.<br /><br />Appearance: Height - 158 cm (5 ft 2 in). Weight - 50 kg (110 lbs). White hair (used to be black when she was alive), pale skin, black hair ribbon (gift from Yamato), red eyes, white clothes (anything she wears becomes white except for red--possibly because of her memory of blood), thin and fragile body, slow/fluid/gentle movements (does not move fast--except when she's eating food)<br /><br />Personality: quiet and [too] obedient (with a lot of complications behind), does not understand others' or her own feelings (although she claims to act upon her feelings--she believes that she supposedly understands what "feeling" is--the fact is that she acts like an animal would on its instincts)<br /><br />Abilities: Ability to turn any clothing to white (LOL), crying blood when hungry (usually after exerting herself or with lack of food), ability to dull opponent's awareness and purpose (using indifference; the opponent lacks determination and has dulled senses, resulting in weakened/confused state), ability to suck opponent's energy with a bite (somewhat like eating). The oddity about Shiku's ability is that her use of these abilities are unlimited so long as she has a constant supply of food--the "abilities," to her, is very natural and instinctive, much like how people breath and stand without thinking consciously. (thus, she does not understand why those around her name their attacks or moves and "think a lot" when fighting)<br /><br />Weaknesses: slow movement and lack of sense of self leaves her vulnerable to speed and manipulative psychology (i.e. she is easy to fool), cannot fight when hungry, her energy depletes fast without eating constantly during the battle<br /><br />Zampaktou: Name - Jibun. Shiku's zampaktou is a tanto resembling the one she killed herself with (wooden handle and sheath), except its dark blade with red and purple glints. Although it has a worn edge, the blade is as sharp and hard as any other.<br /> Shikai: Its only ability without bankai is enhancing Shiku's ability to suck the opponent's energy. The hungrier Shiku is, the stronger the effect. The energy that is being sucked out is an essence of satisfaction, strength, and life force. So, with enough sucking, Shiku can "eat" the opponent to depression, lethargy, illness, and even death. However, Shiku's slow movements make it difficult for her to actually hit a clean shot.<br /> Bankai:<br />- Shibito no yona kiga (&#27515;&#20154;&#12398;&#12424;&#12358;&#12394;&#39138;&#39187; - Deathly Hunger): Shiku deprives herself of satisfaction and life force (i.e. makes herself hungry) to enhance her physical abilities for a certain period of time. Her speed, strength, awareness, regenerative capacity, and sucking capacity all multiplies by however many days of starvation she vows to follow. This puts a lot of strain on both her body and mind, and the repercussions are proportionate to the number of days sacrificed--i.e. she cannot do anything other than eating for the ensued days, else she starts to consume herself to death. The length and enhancing quality of the "shibito mode" depends on how Shiku wishes to distribute the power gained from the sacrifice. However, Shiku hates this ability--the only matter of preference in her life--because it leaves her feeling as "empty and cold" as the time of her death. (when used, the white of her eyes turn completely red, and the iris becomes dead white)<br />- The more preferred "ability" of Jibun's bankai is that it enhances the natural abilities of Shiku. As the name implies, Shiku's zampaktou is "herself" and attempts to accommodate the shortcomings of Shiku's physical capacity--e.g. dulled senses and slow movements. Although it consumes extra bits of Shiku's "energy," restricting her combat to the amount of food supply, Jibun's bankai enables Shiku to completely disregard up to three of opponent's senses--e.g. she can make the opponent temporarily blind, deaf, and unable to feel any touch by letting Jibun consume some of Shiku's energy and touching the opponent. The name for this Bankai ability does not exist because it functions as an attribute rather than a technique.<br />- Changes in Shiku's physical appearance: Shiku's eyes become bloodshot, and she starts crying blood. Her fingernails become sharper (though it's hard to see since she cuts her nails neatly), and the color of her hair and clothing becomes black with purple and red hue, like her blade.<br />---------------------------------------------------<br />Contest Entry to <a href="http://fav.me/d5ls2f8">[link]</a> held by <a target="_self" href="http://peachtrades.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/p/e/peachtrades.png?3" alt=":iconpeachtrades:" title="Peachtrades" /></a> ]]></media:description>            <media:thumbnail url="http://th06.deviantart.net/fs71/150/i/2013/158/c/9/oc___shiku_by_darock830-d6854td.png" height="150" width="125"/>            <media:thumbnail url="http://th07.deviantart.net/fs71/300W/i/2013/158/c/9/oc___shiku_by_darock830-d6854td.png" height="360" width="300"/>            <media:content url="http://th07.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2013/158/c/9/oc___shiku_by_darock830-d6854td.png" height="979" width="816" medium="image"/>

She does not speak at all for any reason and she manly just hangs out on Meg's back all day. She uses Melody's wings kinda like a glider and is quite good at being stealthy with it. The reason why she is called Melody is because Meg uses a special song on a flute to call her when she wants to leave. ]]></media:description>            <media:thumbnail url="http://th04.deviantart.net/fs70/150/i/2013/147/2/7/meg__melody__and_antino_by_starwolf98-d66vfjy.png" height="150" width="134"/>            <media:thumbnail url="http://th09.deviantart.net/fs70/300W/i/2013/147/2/7/meg__melody__and_antino_by_starwolf98-d66vfjy.png" height="335" width="300"/>            <media:content url="http://th02.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2013/147/2/7/meg__melody__and_antino_by_starwolf98-d66vfjy.png" height="945" width="845" medium="image"/>

Her azure orbs caught a lock of white hair flowing in the wind, a figure recumbent on the other side of the tree across the clearing.<br /><br />Wow, he came to get me? Maybe he&rsquo;s finally about to apologize! Who know he could take a mature step like that, Kagome stifled a giggle. She hauled her bag strap over one shoulder and made her way towards him.<br />As she got closer, alarm bells began ringing in her mind.<br />Wait&hellip; His hair is too long&hellip; and it&rsquo;s silver--- &ldquo;OUF!&rdquo;<br /><br />Kagome&rsquo;s wide stormy blue eyes stared into familiar but distinctly different golden pair, a magenta band bordered over each lid.<br />Sesshoumaru stared down at the miko below him, his right striped arm lying over her neck, effectively pinning Kagome to the ground; her abused body trying forcibly to draw in air that her lungs refused to take.<br /><br />&ldquo;S-S-Lord Sesshoum-maru,&rdquo; she wheezed, a surprised lilt colouring her tone.<br /><br />&ldquo;Miko. I want answers; it would be unwise to ignore this Sesshoumaru&rsquo;s queries,&rdquo; the inu youkai growled. He was lying on the ground, half hovering over the young girl, his face close to hers, amber eyes gleaming brightly with an almost unnoticeable touch of red, <br />&ldquo;Where do you go, miko&hellip; Where do you go to in the well.&rdquo;<br /><br />Kagome audibly sucked in a gasp, her azure eyes wide,<br />&ldquo;You&hellip;You followed me&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Where. Miko.&rdquo;<br /><br />Kagome squeaked as the demon applied a little more pressure, her trachea pinching painfully. Sesshoumaru could scent the fear coming from her, hear her heart beat quicken, feel the jump in her pulse under his arm; he held her life in his hands, quite literally.<br />&ldquo;A-Away.. Away from here&hellip;&rdquo;<br /><br />Sesshoumaru&rsquo;s growl reverberated through his chest and settled into hers, her ribs vibrating with the sensation. Kagome swallowed forcefully; suddenly very aware of every place the inu youkai&rsquo;s hard body touched hers. The center of his chest lightly hovering over her left side, his pale warm arm over her neck, the empty left sleeve of his haori resting on her hip. She could feel the cold wood of the two sheaths of his swords against the left of her stomach.<br />&ldquo;The&hellip; The fu..ture&hellip;&rdquo; <br /><br />Sesshoumaru&rsquo;s eyes perceptibly widened a fraction, his arm pulling back just slightly from her airway, allowing her to breathe a little easier. He seemed to be contemplating her answer, his face turned just slightly to the right, away from her. Kagome felt him remove his arm, clearly moving to stand up. He&rsquo;d gotten his answer now, whatever other questions he should have could easily be answered now that the main one was out of the way. She closed her eyes and blew out a lungful she&rsquo;d been unaware she was holding, her head rolling to the right.<br /><br />As Sesshoumaru was about to stand, he felt the miko release a sigh of relief, her soft breath flowing over the left side of his neck and ear. Within a blink, those white and amber orbs grew blue and red, offsetting against his silver hair as he slowly lowered his head.<br /><br />Kagome eyes shot open as she felt something silky, wet and warm against the side of her neck; her body froze. For what felt like a minute-but was in reality only three seconds- her mind tried to comprehend the hot sensation trailing up the left side of her neck. The miko let out a soft whimper unconsciously, the motion freezing the inu youkai. Kagome squeezed her eyes shut as a rush of wind encompassed her, her hair whipping about in a frenzy; a distinctly cold portion chilled rapidly on her neck. When she opened her azure orbs and sat up, she was alone in the clearing, <br /><br />&ldquo;&hellip; S-&hellip;.Sesshoumaru?&rdquo; she winced, her voice sounding squeaky even to her.<br />After a few seconds, Kagome still couldn&rsquo;t believe what had just happened. She rose up on shaky legs, unsure if she was scared from almost dying or&hellip; just confused about what actually happened. The whole situation felt rather&hellip; surreal. <br />The miko lifted a hand to her collar, goose bumps covering every inch of her skin; her fingertips just barely grazing the surface.<br /><br />It was wet. ]]></media:description>            <media:thumbnail url="http://th09.deviantart.net/fs71/150/i/2013/146/3/3/the_first_appearance_by_shadow72-d66nwpw.jpg" height="150" width="116"/>            <media:thumbnail url="http://th01.deviantart.net/fs71/300W/i/2013/146/3/3/the_first_appearance_by_shadow72-d66nwpw.jpg" height="389" width="300"/>            <media:content url="http://th09.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2013/146/3/3/the_first_appearance_by_shadow72-d66nwpw.jpg" height="1018" width="785" medium="image"/>

Online friendships really can pay off! <br /><br />FYI: Alyssa is the tall gorgeous girl to the left and I'm the shorty to the right XD <br /><br />Anyway, Enjoy! ^_^<br />-Ai<br /><div><img src="http://th02.deviantart.net/fs71/300W/f/2013/146/a/7/a_trip_to_the_city_by_airenneth-d66ngxf.png" alt="thumbnail" /></div> ]]></description>            </item>

                <media:description type="html"><![CDATA[ Well this is my own little take on the style meme. It was more about trying out some different styles than following the original meme accurately. So for this I used my own style, Luigi's Mansion style, surreal style, Naruto style, Dragonball Z style and ichan's style. I had wanted to do a couple other styles, which I may still do, but I wanted to get this out to you guys. Primarily I wanted to try shoujo style and Baten Kaitos style.<br /><br />Anyways, I'm just going to leave a little commentary on each box (sort of "In-Universe" situations), if you decide to stop reading here that's fine. XD If you wish to proceed that's great too. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/> Lastly, I still have some art stuff to do related to <a target="_self" href="http://das-ratsel.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/d/a/das-ratsel.jpg?2" alt=":icondas-ratsel:" title="Das-Ratsel" /></a> and <a target="_self" href="http://sofia-1989.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/o/sofia-1989.gif?8" alt=":iconsofia-1989:" title="sofia-1989" /></a>, I'm sorry I've been so slooooww guys, I'll try to speed up. Thankfully I'll have some time to do stuff now that I'm done practicing and studying for my G2. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/><br /><br />Okay, so here we go:<br /><br />My style: So for each of these styles, I wanted to not only represent Vincent in a certain style, but I wanted to give a bit of a different expression to each as well. If you guys have been around for a while, as many of you are, this one might look familiar to you. I was kind of lazy and took one of my sketches on the reference page for Vincent and made a full colour pic of it. I figured this takes place not too long after Vincent died. This is when he first encounters the group and starts to learn ghost stuff. What is so upsetting? Who knows? Interpretation is required. XD<br /><br />Luigi's Mansion style: This was really fun to do. I was a big fan of the original game (not to mention its fun sequel where I got to play loads of online matches with Das Ratsel and ichan) and its style. Actually, as much as I love the new game, I wish it had been a bit more faithful to the source material, but oh well. XD The interesting ghosts in the game were the portrait ghosts and depending on how well you fought them, you'd get a painting of them based on your ranking. All the paintings were basically PS filters, which I spammed the heck out of for this. XD I figured Vincent could be one of the portrait ghosts that could reside in the backyard area of area 3. The reason he has no clothes (unlike the other ghosts) is because he spends his time swimming in the fountain. XD<br /><br />Surreal: So I figured I would do something very dark for this one. In the end it's a little random, a little messy and a little Nightmare-Before-Christmas-ish, but really for this, I just wanted something creepy. XD <br /><br />Naruto style: I'm not too sure how well I could pull off the Naruto style, but I'm told by a couple people I showed this to that it does indeed look like he was in the Naruto universe. I had a lot of fun making this one and it was the first pic I did for this meme. I wanted the background to look like it was part of Naruto as well, although I rushed the background. XD I thought that perhaps he could be a hidden leaf ninja who had a kekkei genkai that allows him to use the "ghost jutst" which allows him to go through walls. It's quite useful for infiltration and reconnaissance I'd imagine.<br /><br />DBZ style: This one was easy to do, considering DBZ already has a ghost design (which was actually a pretty cool attack used by Gotenks). Basically it was the kamizkaze ghost with Vincent features. Tried to make the rushed background DBZ-ish as well. I thought perhaps Vincent in this world is a Sayian and has this as one of his attacks. XD<br /><br /><a target="_self" href="http://ichan-desu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/i/c/ichan-desu.gif?10" alt=":iconichan-desu:" title="ichan-desu" /></a> style: Originally I was going to do Mazjojo style, but then I thought it would be a real nice homage to my friend if I did it in his style. It helped that ichan has sketched Vincent before, so I had an idea of what he should look like. XD According to ichan, I get his seal of approval for drawing Vincent in his style, which makes me very happy. <img src="http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="366" title=":D (Big Grin)"/> Who knows, since ichan is the artist for Elders Floating Temple. perhaps this is an Elders version of Vincent. lol ]]></media:description>            <media:thumbnail url="http://th06.deviantart.net/fs71/150/i/2013/144/9/9/destron23_s_style_meme_by_destron23-d66gf6b.png" height="117" width="150"/>            <media:thumbnail url="http://th09.deviantart.net/fs71/300W/i/2013/144/9/9/destron23_s_style_meme_by_destron23-d66gf6b.png" height="235" width="300"/>            <media:content url="http://th04.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2013/144/9/9/destron23_s_style_meme_by_destron23-d66gf6b.png" height="790" width="1011" medium="image"/>
