V Guyver

another edit. Hopefully someone can do a better job with this one then me. I guess the last one can be used as a CD cover for the TV series. Original white darked white darke white with slight coloring classic 12 episode ova guyver new anime colored guyver same but with logo final edit of anime guyver, if someone wanted, they could edit it to become a cd cover.

oh sorry, I thought you were playing the PSP version.

no it was posted before, love the vacume riding cat. That was funny as heck, my cat would runaway in fear instead, or simply attack it.

again, some nice intresting finds. Thanks again for all the efforts in posting them.

yeah, if you've seen the early versions of Godzilla and King Kong, you'd see some differences. Like an pointless narration by an American journalist in the American version (I prefer the Japanese version as a result). The king Kong vs Godzilla movie changed a lot of things about both monsters, like King Kong becoming much bigger then he was in his original movie.

she was pretty annoying, almost like Mizuki minus the constant shouting of Sho's name and crying over little details... no we have the princess doing the constant crying. I will agree with you, the love triangle would be interesting. If she were to die, those tow would be after one another as much as Amuro and Char did. If she lives, they can probably go through an entire season of her being in conflicted emotion over the triangle. It shows some promise, and in turn this may actually redeem her character.

yes, even the body design is similar.

yeah, that was the best thing about that scene. A shame the fight wasn't better.

my god... http://video.yahoo.com/network/100024552?v...74&l=100051

Well, maybe he's a step towards having one, since many of the first new types on the original series were man made. The entire SEED plot revolved around man made New types, and even Gundam X had a few. But so far, the super soldiers of the series have proven to be the closest to the new types, they do have telepathy and incredibly reaction speed in combat, so they are actualy the closer to new types then Tieria. A shame he blew up the building filled with them, otherwise we would of had a ton more characters with similar abilities to deal with.

Yes, I was thinking that as well. Next episode we'll see a lot more of Soma and Allelujah.

yes, specifically after he got his arm bitten off in the OVA series. I may redo this to make it clearer, I sort of did it in the spur of the moment.

well not face to face. But as usually they are on opposing sides holding a trigger at one another. He's not too different from SEED's protagonist, albeit less disillusioned.

yeah, that's why I named that file g1 OVA, the blue green 12OVA (12 episode) and the dark blueg1 anime. I actually could of color schemed them to be G2 and G4, but show wouldn't pass for either one. Oh and during the competition discussion thread, I ended up getting an idea for an injured guyver in the snow.

warning some mild language here as Obama promises to preserve our @#%^ Jobs. http://video.yahoo.com/watch/3567872/9865409

I wonder if cannibals around too Kenji. I'd like to see if he'd be intrested in using any of the edits I did for his own projects.

yeah, but in Gundam X it was 99% of the human population on earth killed off. Anyways, the new episode was pretty dramatic. And next episode should be a very cool showdown.

ahh thanks kenji! Glad to see you posting more often too.

No argueing there. However, those have been dealt with by law, and the current federal laws are still in question about gay marriage. So it's not a point so much as distinction that gay marriage hasn't been placed in yet or ever. No qualifications are not to be confused with one's practices of sexual intercourse or skin color. So this is true. Where the bias comes from is of little indifference if it actualy accurs. But if you insists, the bias doesn't come from the faultless biological urge homosexuals have. But there is a ton of Bias that does come from: -Religious beliefs -Cultural values -superstitions -long existing prejudices passed on from one generation to another -and people who simply hate other people for being different (and as absurd as that is, it's common) You'd get the same result from only one parent, but it's two parents, with two incomes, and two different sources of ideals, and other variances. If anything it's still better then a single parent and close enough to a stable to parent household. You shouldn't dismiss it just because there are two same sexes raising a child. Otherwise single parents who have uncles and aunts for their children would be meaningless if some followed your view. I'm not sure what you are getting at... are you saying that they gay couples would be less effective because they can't give birth to a second child? They could simply adopt another one. Also if there is no difference between the security of a normal married couplewith a single child to that of a married same sex couple with a single child, then there really is no issue here. I can't see it as a seperate issue since you and others have made the point about gay marriage being a problem to family structure and the standard nuclear family. If you have to bring that up as a point, then we can't ingore this subject either. You sound like you are suggesting it's a conspiracy against marriage. I seriously doubt gay wanted the right to marry just so they can weaken the institution of marriage. Gay's are a minority in every country. If they gain the right, and suddenly the rate of marriage goes down, you can't blame them it on them solely, also if they are also declining in marriage numbers, doesn't that mean it's a common national problem that is extending to gays as well as the more common folk? One may as well argue that gays are responsible for the birthrate drop in many countries in recent years if that were the case. It certianly isn't a simple issue, we all are having problems trying to understand the social problems, but I can't follow your logic on too many points. You said "Same sex Unions should enjoy many of the benefits of marriage, but they neither represent all the reasons why those benefits exist or require all of those benefits to fulfill their needs. Neither are the responsibilities of marriage entirely theirs to take on." This is true, in that they can't reprisent all the same reasons that a normal couple should, but they shouldn't it's a different type of couple. One not typicaly concerned with child birth. If anything they are just as capable and justified to get married as a normal couple, and would would simply reprisent a point of marriage. It doesn't have to be about biological functions or child birth, it could simply be a model of adults in union from love. I can see no horrible consequence in that. I think I lost some of my text in the replies because of errors with the board.

I can definitely understand your points and concerns with marriage. Just like You I don't have all the answers, but I still have to point out the flaws in your argument as much as you have done with mine arguement. Oh and worry not Durendal. I suppose a few of us may get a little heated over the matter, but I doubt we'll be at each others throats anytime soon. In the end, i'm sure we'll all remain friends. The systems still in place though, and oddly enough people tend to still pay these higher taxes. With the rising single Parent and pre-teen parent's rates, the system is still useful. Just odd that the government in the end taxes many of us more, ironic since that wasn't the purpose of behind that bill. No need buddy, you broke it up enough that I could digest it easily. Read the whole thing, so thanks for the effort as i can tell you tried to condense your points a bit. That's the thing, aren't we arguing about how we define gay marriage? Though that has been one of the common associated views in marriage in the last 100 years, it's in the crossroads of society in choosing weather or not to change it, preserve it as it is. It's almost as much of a debate itself as those who want to ban or approve gay marriage in the first place. The Nuclear family concept is fairly new, it wasn't until just this past century that we started to advocate it. Before hand it was marriage to one lady, then with some mistress's here and there and divorce was a new ability to. Before that multiple wives and divorce being being unneeded. I don't see a change in our current tradition and view of family units all that bad or unwanted. Besides, in the here and now, Gay's have been the target of biased abuse, prejudice, and segregation. You can't possibly argue that protecting one's current traditions doesn't constitute as being biased or abusive to someone different or gay. May I remind you that Native Americans, blacks, and Jews were all targeted with lynches at one point or another in the last 2 centuries to protect the then traditions of "expansion" "black submission", and "barbarian cultures". actually man clubs have been targeted for being biased against other social groups. Same goes for both a women's club and men's club. Many times both have been sued against and even been made the subject of movies for social movements. You just don't see them often enough enough these days to warrant notice because of the progress in equal rights, as well as the fact that women's clubs and men's clubs tend to have major differences that each other's parties have no interests in. Even gay's have their own social clubs as well. I understand the point you were trying to make, but it doesn't apply IMO. What business does a christian have in joining a Mosque if he doesn't convert or vice-versa. There's a reason why they are treated as second class citizens in some countries. Look at Afghanistan, they sentenced a man to execution for converting to Christianity 11 years ago... If not a second rate citizen... then a dead one. I also don't see the point in this comparison. Same as above. If you don't convert you have no reason to join a church. This is confusing, this offers no logical point at all. Babies are too young to make choices in the same level as an adult, and babies also lack the same physical traits that would allow them to be on the same. Level, and if you are to talk about disabled people, some of them do consider themselves second class or specialized citizens depending on the point of you. Trying to compare people who are incapable of doing things that the average human being doesn't constitute as being biased against or second class citizens. If anything, they are just in situation preventing them from certain functions. I'm not sure why you'd try to use babies as a point in this manner. Second class citizens for a limited biological function? No, but the same can be argued about women, men used to say that women were biologically inferior and this is why they actually were second class citizens. In fact women still are in many regions of the world, simply because they tend to be smaller, weaker, and function differently. I also fail to see the logic in this, sorry. sorry about splitting the posti n half, but I reached the quote limit. lol Then I suppose my logic is flawed, I don't think it is though. The concept of Romance has only been around for only some hundreds of years, and marriage thousands. But marriage wasn't about responsibility either. If anything it was about practicability to survive and gain human needs like emotional support. I suppose you are right in people not needing to be in love to be married, but I can argue you don't need it to be same sex either. You are going about this in ancient and dark ages periods in which marriages were used as bartering tools in trade and politics. If some so desired, they could of traded off their sons to be married, even to a gay man if it would help reach a goal (and trust me they did according to certain ancient peoples.) But times have changed since then, haven't you noticed that love is now one of the primary reasons for marriages today? You can't ignore love, it's part of human social functions and it helps in finding a desirable long life partner weather it be man or woman. Emotions are not just personal, they also serve a function into social interaction in allowing us to judge the others feelings, without it there would be many misunderstandings. it makes totaly sense to me in my logic, but we don't seem to use the same form of logic, so I doubt you'll accept it. If that is the case, then the points of your older traditional cultures don't hold merit to current changing culture. But my point wasn't that they represent our current culture, no it was to point out that there have been changes over time that removed gay marriage, and it may very well be reversed into allowing gay marriage in this turn of the century. Alas poor Nero, ever a sufferer of biased historians over the centuries. It wasn't until recently that he's began to be viewed in a favorable light. He's been vilified by Christians for rumors of him burning Rome down and killing Christians and thus being associated with the devil. To top it off, even roman historians wrote about him negatively about him, and some even admitted to being biased against him. You should second guess all that is said about him. Tiberius was a far more vile being, who made Caligula the mad emperor he became. Nero on the other hand was treated like a pawn by his family and thrust into politics and tried to survive this while reforming Rome... He actually tried to end poverty in the Roman empire. Sorry for the detraction. What's wrong in comparing older societies to ourselves? It took us more then a thousand of years to relearn how to make concrete like the Romans. The Aztecs had much more advanced astrological then we did fairly recently, not to mention incredibly accurate calendars that makes our current calendar look like a joke. Some societies and cultures have been devoid of war and famine unlike us (sadly we wiped some of them out). Heck, the ancient Chinese built a device that could detect earthquakes long before modern technologies. I think we should keep an open mind. Oh and I can name a number of primitive and even advanced societies that practiced all of the above, look up Baal, now there was a god who was worshiped by the most advanced iron makers in the world, but required having children burned alive inside a statue... We have police officers and firemen who parade themselves in drag as a joke as a yearly joke. Online MMORPG marriages, so it's not that different and not really related to actually homosexuality. But you said it was mistaken, but I have to point out yet again that Nero was biased against, so I wouldn't take the slanders written about him with full conviction. The persecution and murder of gays was due to the change of power and infulence held by christians. At this point, Rome wasn't Rome anymore, it was a new anti-pagen, anti-gay, anti-polygamy empire based off the single minded beliefs of early christians. It doesn't count as an example of roman intolerance to gays, if anything it just shows more anti-catholic/orthodox (before the two churches split) policies. Neither was it written that minorities nor women should be excluded, but it still happened at one point. You are right though in saying that it won't deny them the rights... but it can lead to that situation if they close off other venues too. Like I mentioned before, I would prefer marriage being defined as only a man and woman union, but I can tolerate it not being defined like that too.

another version of the previous work. Dunno why I bothered doing it. I guess the lighter texture attracted me. and me toying around with another toy image. original source material and subsequent versions... all of which you can change the color schemes to your favorite guyver color scheme. Also, it's an easy enough image for banners and wall papers, so feel free to use it to create some. and just for fun...

another one, this one took me even longer because I ad no idea what I was doing. I got lucky with the final products. original black and white, didn't become as lined as I'd hoped, so I had to improvise from now on coloring for expirimentation merger of coloring with original for look, then smoothed textured with for darkness and leaving face half black then added transparant glow then figured Id's try to add air pressure from his facial pores (note they go up, not down like other guyvers.) Oh and on a final note. I don't know what the contest that Durendal and Ryuki are eventualy going to sponser and hold. But if anyone likes, I can try and help them with their entries. Also, if you'd like to use some of my edits, or just parts of them then jsut ask. I've seen Cannibal and others here on the board do better work, but I hope some of these can be of some use.

the last 2 only took like 4-5 minutes of work. These new ones took a bit longer because I had to airbrush things by hand digitally like an hour. I really had no idea what I was doing, but eventually I just decided to try and make the guyot action figure look like it was actually drawn. I really don't know how well it came out, especially the last one with the clashing red and blue with stone backdrop. (did it just out of curiosity of how'd it look.) Anyways... Original black and white and after contrasts and size blow up. colored with airbrush tool the same but with plastic effect for shading and a slight texture and just an experiment with the coloring. I should of done the background separately instead of just airbrush it in to the pic which messed up a 2 blades a little. But I really don't care since I don't like it much. Also used the stone filter to give it that bumpy look again. Edit: Oops just noticed that I miscolored his right tooth (to out left) Edit2: Fixed and updated the images.

thanks guys. I think I may expriment more from now on. Just because I can't draw as much as I'd like these days, doesn't mean I can't photoshop these days.

well another one, again used the stone in the background and edited from an action figure pose someone posted online. I saw potential in the image so it led to this. I decided to use two different colors in order to add a dynamic contrast to the image. Now that I think about it, Cannibal did some NBA guyver mock ups that used the same color contrast as I just did. anyways, the original image I found (Blew up the image because it was pretty small, almost a thumbnail.) and my re imagining of it...
