I'm sure he just doesn't wanna see "THE GIRL WHO IS THE HEALTHY [???] SHELL FISH WITH MIGHTY GREAT! CLICKING HERE TO THE FORWARD IF YOU ARE THE TEN PLUS EIGHTS, OR ELSE CLICKING THIS BRING BACK NOT OF OLD." when he translates 😉

He asked for a translation, there was nothing in there about not translating it into broken english.  😛

DeviantArt, period.

I've gotten lucky with my DA run. But most of, if not all, the other artists on here with a DA page has had at least one or two attacks on their work.

Could somebody who can read japanese take a look at http://earthcolor.sakura.ne.jp/ug/main2.htm and tell to the rest of us what's it says.

What's the matter? Too lazy to babelfish it yourself?

It's dead because the deadline has long since passed and it was never a contest, it was a community thing.

He's actually referencing the image from the first page.

The artist is very_zenn.

A new addition to the FMG 100 collection.

013. Black

I wanted to give a shot at Frank Miller's very hard shading style from his Sin City books. With all that said, if you still fail to see where the 'black' prompt relates to this image, I fear for your well being.  😛

But I feel like I still need a degree in manga to understand your explanation!  😛

I suppose my explanation was a bit vague concerning what all the stuff dealing with Bleach. A zanpakuto is basically a physical manifestation of a sentient spirit in the form of a sword. A zanpakuto has three forms, its sealed form, an initial release form or shikai, and a final release or bankai.

Ichigo Kurosaki, the main character of Bleach, has a massive ammount of spiritual energy. His bankai is a compression of all this power, giving him a much greater degree of speed and strength.

Briana's "bankai" functions in a similar manner, where all her strength is compressed and focused into the blade of her Guan Dao. The way I like to think of it is like using a magnifying glass to focus the light of the sun into a ray that burns much hotter.

Hope that sheds a little light on the mystery.  😉

As celebration of me finally getting my website done, I finished off the first image for my own FMG 100 entry.

029. Too Much
. It takes from the bankai (final release) of Ichigo Kurosaki's zanpakuto (soul slayer). This idea is a complete 'what if?' situation (I don't know if I'd ever use it storywise) where Briana goes a level above her avatar form. When in this state all her massive physique is compressed into a more agile form. And all her strength is siphoned into her guan dao which also takes the form of a much more agile pudao. The 'too much' comes from all this raw power being compressed into a small blade is easily overkill when hit comes to blow.

After announcing it on my DA page a few months back, I finally have it up and running.

*Casually slides submission under the door*

Briana = 6'11"

There are two versions, one with a pair of sun glasses and one without. Use whichever you heart desires.  😛
