Hi guys!
It’s actually been a while since I updated my blog and this
time, time for some graphics-related stuff. At first, I actually wanted to
review the resource book I recently bought but then changed my mind because I
haven’t fully explored every damn render inside of it and I’ve only used a few
of them so far.
So instead, let me dump these facebook cover photos I’ve
made lately, continuing from my previous post.
Me and Krantz’s next facebook set were – again – Rin and Len
Kagamine and that time, it was all floral and stuff that I almost couldn’t
believe I MADE IT.
Truth be told, I am not a fan of flowers but they look nice
on the ambiance of the render that I randomly found at Renders Graphiques (thank
you, btw).
And after for a while, Psycho-Pass The Movie scattered all
over the internet that made me watch it immediately (I has been waiting six
months in agony!). Then I remembered,
“I want to create a group set featuring
Psycho-Pass!”
And I did.
I actually made the ID's and Sybil's design manually. And it took me four hours to finish everything! Can you imagine how my eyes were almost close to crying while being glued on screen and my right hand becoming stiff for holding the mouse for too long while maintaining its accuracy? No. lol
I used first season because:
1. Kougami is already NOT included at second season’s OP
Song Sequence. I want to use the scene where they were all standing on the same
line looking so cool and badass at the same time. And I want to HAVE a Kougami
because Krantz wants to be him.
2. Mixing second season with the first season is just a bad
idea. I thought of that too but I was too lazy to make a one big photo where
every damn character from first season and second season will be shown.
3. I just hate Mika.
And that’s how it all ended up in the first season. Whether I
will do another one featuring the second season is a debatable topic.
After Psycho-Pass, Krantz and I are back to Rin and Len
Kagamine and this time, featuring the ever-catchy song, Remote Control (リモコン - YT/NND),
by jiizasuP (じーざすP). The illustration was done by KEIGYO.
Actually, in this work, I’ve already used some resources
from the book that I was talking about and I used a lot a neon lines and some
color toning and adjustments that destroyed a lot of colors on this thing. HAHA
But I was too lazy to do anything to make it look better… lol
At the same time, Maikan, a dear friend, asked me to make
her a facebook set too. Since me and Krantz already changed facebook sets, the
Psycho-Pass Group Set is already done (I guess? haha). Well, I wanted to try
using the other new resources I have so, why should I refuse, really?
She wanted GUMI. I’m not a big fan of GUMI like the fan I am
with Rin and Len (Yes, I’d die for these babies) but I like some of her songs
especially if it’s DECO*27 who tuned her. Maikan actually made me choose among
random pictures she saw through Google but then I chose naoto’s illustration
which was easy to manipulate. HAHA
It’s the usual lazy Linzz.
I hope you enjoyed the small graphic ride!

Hi guys! So sorry for not updating for months. I never knew
that settling down in a new country takes a lot of time and I was busy going
around town, hopping from one place to another, adventuring. So, what do I have
in store for my blog this time? As the title implies my first
anime-related-stuff buying starts.
Since I promised to treat myself on my first salary in this
country, I didn’t hold back. But to be honest, I DID hold back because if I
didn’t, I will not have anything left for my savings.
The story started with me and my friends planning to go for
some gaming time but then he forgot the way towards our supposed-to-be destination.
And so, I ended up at Animate – an hobby collection store.
I think most of my friends knows that I am a crazy fan of
Rin and Len Kagamine. And when I entered their store, the first thing that came
to my sight was the Rin and Len Kagamine Cup with a G-clef holder and with Tama’s
illustrations!
Dude! It was Tama! And you know what I did? I immediately called
for a sales person and asked to get that cup out and give it to me. Yes, I
ordered.
With that done, I proceeded with getting the first Art Book
of Yana Toboso – the creator of Kuroshitsuji. I already had planned on buying
it ever since I first stepped into Animate. So I took it and didn’t even recheck
the price. AT ALL.
The front and back inner covers are actually so fine that I almost cried when I opened it myself. I plan to buy Yana Toboso's other art books and the same goes for CLAMP.
So next, I turned to the Vocaloid section because I was curious
if there are any more Rin and Len merchandise that are being displayed, and so,
I was right. And I caught “Evil’s Kingdom” Album. My friend tried to stop me
from buying it but it was futile. Everyone knows that my love for Rin and Len
(and for mothy) is uncontrollable.
The album comes with a chain (and I am loving it)! I will be
using it on my company phone and will be always filled with energy whenever someone
from the company will call me instead of being depressed while thinking it is,
again, work (lol). And with an Exit Tunes Card! I crai. I dunno if I’ll be
using it but I will use it for my Rin and Len Babies.
And I found these beautiful and cute chains of the both of
them too. I just took it from its place and went to the counter with the fear
that I won’t be able to eat for the next few weeks if I stayed there.
After that small adventure, another friend came to accompany
me going around town. We were able to reach Nagasaki’s China Town and I
stumbled upon this book store.
私＆僕たちの出番だよ！
So I was originally searching for any CLAMP
Artbooks then I saw a Rin and Len Kagamine Artbook Collection instead. Oh, you
know the rest of the story.
Linzz became broke and shall wait for the next payment with
hunger. HAHA

It has been a while since I posted anything related to graphics. Truth is, I haven’t really done anything except things for Chronos – my group in FFSNG – and, of course, for my facebook (and maybe onee-sama’s as well). So make this story short, I’ll be just dumping my cover photos here since I’ve decided to use my Deviantart for illustrations purposes only.
As some of you might know that I am a big fan of Nano (ナノ) so I happen to have stumbled on one of his song that was used in a PSVITA Game, Re:Viced's Promotional Video. And I went like, "Why not make cover photos out of these cute looking characters?" So it happened.
Originally, I only made two - that's for me and for Krantz - then Bea and Badz ask for theirs and so I made them too.
Isn't Yukine so cute?
I also made the ones bellow as my other facebook sets with my Onee-sama, Krantz.
Please tell me you have read and watched Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso (Your Lie in April)! Because if you haven't yet, you have missed the top-ranked musical anime of all time! So I will recommend it!
The manga has 44 Chapters that ended last March 2015 and the Anime with 22 episodes that ended last March 2015. There is another manga entitled, Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso - Coda which tells Kousei Arima's (the lead character) past. The Code started last April.
The ones written on the cover photo was what Kousei once said about Kaori (female) on episode 2, I think.
"I don't want to but I want to hear it."
"I don't want to but I want to see her."
I also made another version featuring other characters where my friends wore them for their facebook profiles. How lovely is it to do it in bulk? I love my friends!
As obvious as it may look, I am a big fan of Emi! She was one of the contestants that thought winning doesn't matter. She was only there to show something to Arima Kousei through her piano - which she had done marvelously, by the way.
After that was actually Valentines Day. So I made a cover for the Holiday. Actually, I planned to do this for me and Krantz only (again) but my other friends demanded for their share so I had no choice but to edit ones for them. LOL
And it turned out like this:
And after Valentines, Krantz told me to change sets so I have to make a new one. LOL Why am I being ordered around by these guys anyway?!
This one was hard to make because the original illustration was cut off and not really meant for graphics work but I liked it so much that I didn't have a choice but to make something out of it. This was the outcome.
Then after a month, Krantz wanted a new one. OTL
This time, Krantz chose the image to be used and I made it simple with a little blending and lighting.
As for the latest one, I made Krantz do the choosing since I downloaded this image pack from Vocaloid Otaku's Rin and Len Fanclub (oh, if you're interested, I am inviting you over haha). I made a few selections and ended up with six of them all so I went and ask Krantz to choose the image for the next set from my selected pieces.
We ended up with this one. I used some simple editing and spammed it with brushes. I like how it turned out.
Hope you enjoyed looking at them! /o/

When you look for answers
And you don't know where to find them
You're hoping there's a sign to point the way
Have you lost the courage?
Will you find the strength to stand against the darker days?

Hello Fate! Long time no blog! Yes, it is, isn't it? But yes, I finally decided to make a good turn with my blog. I wanted to focus on graphics before but now that I have no more time and just do it for myself and some friends and for my FFSNG Group, Chronos, I will make this into a random blog!
Yes, my dump blog will become a dump blog once again. But of course, when there are times that I have done some works, I will post them up and if I have anything new going on, I will do the same after this post.
Most of my friends knew I am a big fan of Rin and Len Kagamine (Oh heck, most of my blog's layouts were Rin and Len lol) and nano (no kidding, my playlist is full of her songs). So I decided to make a layout that could feature both of my lives! Aren't I a genius? Nope. LOL It is too simple anyway.
So the results is the, obvious, version 16! But really, have you lost the courage?

I know, it has been a long time and I'm really sorry for not being able to reply onto your messages, guys. Internet over here is just too slow to browse anything lately and can't get a stable connection on my side. (I do get some good ones but I have to wake up too early in the morning to have it)Since something went wrong with the image hosting site I have been using before, Version 014's images cannot be seen so I decided to make another layout for Linzz's Fate! This time, featuring my all-time favorite, Rin and Len Kagamine from Vocaloids, of course!
Since I have done the Crypton Layout Run, it's time to go back to my lovelies this time. I'm still working on who drawn the image. I seemed to have renamed my files forgetting I needed the image tags to retrieve artist information on my saved images. I know, I am dum. LOL
There were actually a lot of bugs when I made this and I tried at least three styles to make things work and made a couple of attempts on changing everything and it took me four days to finish this and install it because of school. OTL
PS: I don't think I'll be able to do any graphics work after this since I still have a lot of pages of vocabularies and Kanji to work on. XD

Well, as I said before, even if I'm really busy now, I know there can still be a time where I can make graphics but for selected people only (including myself). Actually, one level of language class had just finished on my side so we had a few days of free from schedule so I made use of that time to do them. And now, we're on another level of language class so it will be busy again. 
The images were drawn by my favorite PV Artist, Suzunosuke and these were from HitoshizukuP and Yamadan's song, Party x Party featuring the six Vocaloids of Crypton (which to say that I have featured in all of Linzz Fate's layout before - pround).
I didn't actually plan on creating two of these but my friend Krantz wanted to have one as well featuring Len Kagamine so why not? All I did was change the position, blur and sharpened areas of the work anyway. Plus, the name. XD

Totally, it is! I mean, I haven't really done any Rin & Len tags in a while, have I? LOL And I seriously miss listening to their songs! ever since Vocaloidism stopped posting the Vocaloid Weekly Ranking (Well, I know they are now posted in Ofurotaimu still...), I wasn't able to catch up with their latest songs and only stalks my favorite artists if ever they drawn illustrations for certain songs. LOL But that doesn't hinder my love to these lovely vocaloids. It does not!
I made two versions of it. I mean, I don't really know what kind of color environment suits this piece! Anyway, renders are from Render Graphiques and the rest of the resources are listed here.

I decided to share them so here you go! I do hoe you'll put them into good use, somehow. LOL Anyway, the original illustration was done by MonicA. I only vectored the basic features of each Vocaloid (Crypton-marked only) and as for the rest, it is u to you do use them in where ever. XD
Of course, if you're a fan of vocaloid, you'd know right away who is who in this banner, right? You can actually use them for anything (maybe for T-shirt designing) but I only will give away the 150dpi coy since my computer couldn't save my files in 300dpi. LOL RAM problems. OTL
