New Lunargyros page today...getting back to seeing Kylie's parents for the first time in, like, three chapters. o_O

As for the Disney-buying-Marvel deal...I don't really care one way or another, and I'm kind of baffled at how fans are crying OMFG RUINED FOREVER. (Then again, maybe I shouldn't be baffled). It's not like Disney doesn't already have 50-odd subsidaries under their name, most of which people don't even know about. It's not like the other big comics giant, DC, isn't also owned by a media megagiant (Time-Warner). For now I'm just enjoying the lulz that're coming from it.

That aside...today I did some arts:

Stopped by Starbucks today for some peopledrawing. I also stopped by the pool, but there weren't really any people there, so maybe I'll try again tomorrow.


And now, STUFF THAT WILL MAKE NO SENSE!

I've got the textures done for the Ansem model:

...Except for some reason, the normal maps AREN'T WORKING on the model in Maya. DX They keep coming out jagged and chunky, no matter how much I mess with the bump map types and intensity. So I'll probably just end up finishing the whole thing in ZBrush. Only problem with THAT is...I'm pretty sure transparency maps don't work in ZBrush, making the transparency map moot. :(

Not that I know much on the subject - I really don't, but my concern with Disney owning Marvel is that they will try to make everything G-PG. Not that I read graphic violence. Not that this would even happen. But still, I dislike change on principle and some of my favorite characters come from Marvel. Marvel treated them badly enough; I don't want them going through worse with Disney. I really don't know if it makes a difference at all. But still. Ugh, change. Be for the better, dammit.
