I'm gonna go ahead and say that Finnish beats it by a long shot.. probably the ugliest language in the world :poly122: I started studying Japanese for the same reasons as you frell.. one year I spent just studying by myself whenever I had some spare time (busrides, shower...:poly136:), then I moved there for 2 years.. now…
Sony PSN servers were just as secure as almost every other company that holds credit card information was and is to this day running on the latest stable Apache software. People need to realize that this wasn't because of a software blunder on Sony's part but more on the part of determined hell bent hackers who had a…
Cool, looks good! I think you should try optimizing your Japanese maple so it's more appropriate for real-time applications though. One thing that could help you with making a diffuse is arranging the leaves from a top view, baking them for a normal and the alpha, and then use that. That Japanese maple looks like it's…
okay... concept number one: supposed to be a character from a fantasy land. His people are a small tribe with a Spartan/Japanese type culture. ie.

I honestly don't really think I could actually compete with the massively talented and hardworking artists here but I think I could get some really valuable feedback. So I'm a Nami one trick that happens to draw periodically. I like pretty much all of her skins except koi. The general aesthetic of it is nice but, when I…
First - we're discussing a major subculture, not an art style. Anime is a style of art, but you're referring to a particular subcultural group in Japan that ascribes to particular types of anime. Japan and Japanese society, by and large, appears westernized to us but still has some major aspects that are definitely not…
@Kid.in.the.Dark Thanks for the feedback/ideas. My influence comes more from near-future Japanese films: GITS/Appleseed/Akira/etc, rather than American storylines. I love how bizarre/completely alien a lot of the Japanese character designs are. The style isn't concerned with trying to 'humanise' characters for the sake of…
