you know, in my hiatus from making pretty much ANYTHING, i've learned a bunch of new things, techniques, etc. but i can't seem to carry them out, mainly because i cant find any good renders and i'm crap at sigs in general. where do you find your stuff, other than planetrenders? :/
oh, and nice sig~

You ain't crap at sigs, dearie.
Well, this one's a random picture I got off google. Generally, I just use planetrenders for renders, and google or wikipedia for stocks. However, this'll help if you want actual stills from animes.
As for anything else, this has a load of good links in general to renders and such. Just, be careful; I think some of the sites linked to have ecchi as well as renders.

^Heh indeed.
You've been busy; I hadn't been looking at your thread for quite a long time.
All your sigs thus far are excellent, and I have no doubt that those in future will continue to be so.
Additionally, what TCG card did you get that pic from? It looks somewhat familiar...

@DNA: I'm not quite sure; I think it was a fairly recent card. It's the first result on Googling "quagsire tcg scan".
@Valentine: I think I might. Knoll, as sweet as he is, is getting a little old now.

A bit of an experiment, pondering whether to use it.

That looks really cool, use it.
Is that that dude from Castlevania? Soma or whoever?

Soma Cruz, yeah. He's been in two games: Aria of Sorrow, and Dawn of Sorrow. Though the Belmont guys are probably who you'd more associate with Castlevania. :/

I'm really bad with names when it comes to Castlevania (one of them was named Richard, I think), but Aria of Sorrow is my favorite of the hand-held titles (didn't play Dawn).
Why aren't you using it yet. :(

rofl Castlevania, that game is so unoriginal. :[
ALSO, cool sig, it looks kinda like it was handpainted, what effect did you use to create that feel?

EXPLAIN YOURSELF, POPLERS. D:
no srsly, all i've played is harmony of dissonance, aria and dawn of sorrow. still, i heart them.
Also, I used a hell of a lot of blurring, overlay and smudging to get that effect,

well the guy's name is Soma.
that's lame because they got it from Brave New World. therefore its unoriginal and therefore is lame. :[
THAR. :o

@poplers: Soma is also a plant, four different cities and the cell body of a neuron. :P I got the piccie from a google search. It was a wallpaper, I think.
@DragonSpear: If you think I'm a good animator, you've obviously never strayed beyond Psypoke's "art" section. :/
I don't really *do* Pokemon animations, if that's what you mean. I mainly do Fire Emblem stuff, because the style's relatively easy to mimic and edit.

It's taken from a frame in one of the Hellsing OVAs. The character in question is Sir Integra Hellsing.

It would look better if she actually looked like she belonged there instead of looking like some anime cut-out along with a textured background. :[

Don't listen to him. Anyone who talks **** about Castlevania lacks intelligence and respectable percipiency. :o

Tee hee. :3
Incidently, my recent reading of Dracula uncovered quite a few amusing little insights into Aria of Sorrow. Namely, Mina Hakuba -> Mina Harker.
