Jin Roh...
3 weeks 1 day ago
Hey folks,

I just watched Jin Roh. So yeah .. I'm behind the time - everyone knows that :P.

I'm not gonna spoil the anime to you, because it's a lot more interesting to watch it yourself. Figure out who's the wolf and who's the little red riding hood.

Just that my emotions were overflowing when I was watching the movie. I'd expect just something average because of the setting and well.. the story. It's not new at all and (besides the suites) quite similar with human history.
However .. the conflicts arising and the feelings you think the characters have ... are simply amazing. There are scenes where the characters talk VERY little even though there was a lot to say and to ask. But they stay silent :(... which is good though: the German dub isn't bad, but it's not good either (average at best).

What I can and actually will tell you that this story is based on the little red riding hood story, which was first written down by the Brothers Grimm. HOWEVER!: the story they wrote is the children-friendly one. Jin Roh uses the more authentic one - what exactly and how.. this is what you should figure out on your own.

Since you still read, I've got a big request: if you have some more scans of Jin Roh, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE upload them here or send them to me directly :D. I'd "buy" them here too though.
What this (or these) scan(s) should contain, is: the second girl (not the one at the very beginning), the guy (unmasked!). The scan showing the girl running "away" (to the front with the face facing towards the back) would be amazing too - I want to make a wallpaper out of this.

"Make a vector" you say? Well: even though the quality of the source (the movie I've got) is quite good I don't believe it's decent enough (at the scenes I'd like to pick for the vector). Besides: by vectoring I often lose quality - because you stay absolutely true to the 3 colors you chose. It'd be better to shade it, but unfortunately it's TOO much work for me right now.
I've got 2 major projects going on (one is a reconstruction/extension of a scan and the other one is a highly-detailed vector trace out of a screenshot of a game) as well as some programming projects (webshop website and a project I'm not talking about just yet :P) so I'm too busy. If you would like to help me here (I have the screen and could send it, it's HDTV, but 720p I think) and at least create the vector, please send me a message :). I'd gladly accept this. Of course if it's just the vector of the girl, I'd credit you for your hard work on her!

Thanks for reading!

About Me

I decided to rewrite my biography since I seem to use animepaper more often again and can't really stand what I've written before. Anyway.. I am 24 by now and still like anime, programming, music (a huge lot of it) and other things. I started using Adobe Photoshop 3.05 in 1996 - almost 12 years ago. I still don't know everything that program can do, but I think I am a good average user :). As to Illustrator - I started very late with the version 12 and am now using CS3 Suite. My profession is programming in perl, java and many other scripting and non-scripting languages (html, css, js, lingo, actionscript). But due to the fact that I do this at work, I've got no time for the same things in my non-work time. I prefer to use the time for graphics, anime and - yes - music. My music interests change quite often - therefore I got a huge lot of songs. Currently (november 2008) I am (still) listening to Touhou music and from time to time to other music (I've Girls, Crows'Claw, Subway to Sally, Within Temptation). Check my last.fm profile if you want to know more :). You are always welcome to leave a comment and I'll be sure to write you back as soon as I find time. Till then, thanks for reading.

Thank you so much for the feedback on my PH wall Maid Hearts ^^
About the eyebrows: it was intentional. It's the same with the eyelashes. If you look at the will of Abyss in the anime, you also get the feeling that the white-grayish tone doesn't work out. It just feels unnatural. I just tried to wall it to the extent where it gives off the same vibe.

Have a nice day and look forward to my Christmas wall <3 emoticon

Thanks for comment and fav.

I think I know what you mean and I agree with you, but you're forgetting that vectoring is not only a way to up quality :3 I couldn't make it the way I wanted any other way ^_^

Привет!
Я только что заметил... тебя звать Игорь?! Меня тоже звать Игорь! x)

Btw you wrote a bit on Russian. You very well know it! You know it better than I know English x) Буду тебе писать и по-русски и по-английски :) Ты тоже пиши по-русски и по-английски. Со временем не только будешь читать и говорить, но и писать тоже.

Kämpfer is comedy with fan service. And I think it is one of the best comedies in these year. Also I liked mystic, mecha, triller, harrow, psychological. Но всему есть предел. Именно для этого и создаются такие аниме как Kämpfer. Для разгрузки мозга.

Thank you very much for your constructive comment on my wall! I'm flattered that you followed it in SZ, even if you didn't have input then :) I understand what you're saying about the grungy texture, actually! I thought about toning it down, but decided that the original scan contained enough that it wouldn't detract from the paper. If enough people share similar opinion I'll likely upload a revision with the grunge toned down.

I'll keep in mind your advice for my next and future walls as well! Thank you again!
