Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood

fmab

This weekend I watched Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood from episode 1 to 27, even though I had some other things to do. The first part of the series was similar to the first series – Full Metal Alchemist, then the other half was totally different. It’s quite interesting to watch another version of the story. I read that FMA Brotherhood is closely related to the manga unlike the first animated series. Though, I don’t like the part of their jokes, even in serious battles they have silly chibi characters having tantrums, specifically Ed. That’s just my own opinion though. The artwork also differs with characters like Scar, they look older compared to the first series. The series by far is very interesting to watch, and I’m still craving for more!

Kyuubi

Monday has passed, another wallpaper challenge. This week, Mae was our challenger. I really liked her topic, and I love the outcome of my wallpaper, but I don’t think my concept will suit her taste though. Her topic was:

With a smile…

My concept was to create an evil smile. I didn’t have much time, so I vectored an animal’s face that is already sinister looking on its own – a fox. After I finished creating the wallpaper, I realized it looks like Naruto’s Kyuubi. Created in just about 30 minutes I didn’t place any effects on this one, for I was going for a simplistic wallpaper. Let’s just say, I’m tired of my messy wallpapers all this time.

Ghost in the Shell

Wallpaper Challenge on a Monday! Since our wallpaper challenges have been moved from Fridays to Mondays, as requested by one of my officemates.  The change of schedule has just been implemented today. The person who was  assigned to give us the topic for today is Adelbert, who gave us designers an awesome topic:

Future Intelligent Robot

I loved this topic for the wide range of Anime I may use to portray my idea. Ghost in the Shell was the first thing that came into my mind, since I’m not a fan of gigantic Gundam type robots, and I’m fascinated with humanoids. The design style used in this wallpaper may be typical, but I love the overall outcome of the wallpaper, since I was able to create what I envisioned to do in just one hour. Hope you like it.
