About me too!
"Hello true believers!"
Ah, there's no better way to welcome people to a more delicate post regarding behind-the-scenes tidbits than with good-old Stan-the-Man Lee's greeting.
So first of all, let me repeat myself in a near identical manner, by saying hello to you all ya guys and gals ( Yeah I'm hoping there are gals around too...There aren't?...Well I'll keep pretending there are any >.> ) out there.
As you may have already figured out by now this bit of a new page is pretty much not so new in a sense of content, being mostly revolved around the same type as Erogeni,,,I mean Eron's...About post. However, I myself am a big fan of the behind-the-scenes shenanigans and seeing as how you guys are pretty much also curious about such stuff I figured starting off these About posts is a good way to keep a connection with ya guys.
Now I could start by offering my life's story from the very point of creation but that would be way too long now wouldn't it? :D So here's the deal. Let's just start from the point of getting into editing.
In all forms of honesty I can tell you when I began editing I never did it with the intent to contiune and get to this level as is. When I started it was from literally from scratch. II had never once attempted to work with Photoshop before, I had no interest whatsoever therefore I had no real knowledge, experience or skills to do any form of decent quality editing.
However in time that happened to change once I got introduced to anime and later on to the hentai part of it.
What's really funny about all this is that what I used to dislike is what brought me to start learning editing and get somewhat good at it. Yeah you heard it right. I'm saying anime is something I didn't like at all initially.
Why I didn't like animea at first?

The name of the show: Monster.
So I jumped into band-waggon shortly after and began to explore the world of anime. Heck I even began seeing Dragon Ball Z and in spite of huge shonen things I could see why people liked it also so much.
And kept wondering the anime realm searching for a follow-up to Mosnter's performance. And in 2006 it happened.
Death-fucking-Note

I was thinking at the time. OK I had been proven twice wrong about anime. I got 2 strikes already. I wanted, I really wanted to be proven wrong at this point I wanted to discover that 3rd anime that would cause me to strike out a 3rd time and get out proven so completely wrong about anime all these years.

Steins;Gate.
And that was pretty much it I came to love anime and I got to understand that like any media you get thrown a lot of garbage but once in a while among all that pile there's one heck of a treasure.
Now you're probably asking... OK but you said you'll talk about how you came to work in Photoshop and do edits. What does this have to do with it?
It has a lot to do actually because my now solidified love towards anime is what got me into practicing more on drawing in anime form and to create stories in that form. That's when I came to discover manga. xD
But another story for another time. xD
Getting back to the topic on hand anime made me draw anime so to say and that's when I came to learn of hentai unintentionally by a collegue in high school that I guess jokingly asked me once when he caught me designing a character of my own during one recess " Why don't you try to draw hentai? ". I was rather confused, I had no idea what that was and of course I asked what it was. However he never geave me an answer to it and preffered to rather try to shrug off the question probably of some form of embarassment out of presumming I knew of it only to find out I didn't.

But in any case I liked it and stumbled on a few pieces that were based on characters from shows I knew. So I started, driven by curiosity, into trying to see if I discover anymore art of such type based on anime I knew. And that's how ecentually I stumbled onto the more high quality ones like the hentai art from the PiXXX sites, back than only Bleach, Naruto, One Piece.
But since I was a fan of Bleach than the rest I started to follow the art from there. And from that ecentually I stumbled upon 420chan where just as Eron I only served as a visitor and viewer of the edits. Untill I got very displeased at one point of the huge amount of Naruto edits and very little of Bleach ( those that were being what I saw as pretty low in quality ). That's when I decided if I don't like it I should do it myself. So I started to edit. Of course I was pretty much bad myself at first but to my surprise there was positive feedback on my first attempts. So that helped me gain a bit more trusting into the posibility in continuing to do this and improve. xD
So I got to learn a lot about Photoshop and how to do this and that untill I became more daring such as starting to learn to draw in Photoshop for editing purposes ( drawing hair, eyes, mouths, faces etc ) in order to amke the edit work.

But yeah I think I ramble enough for a simple introductory post so I guess I'll leave you guys alone for now but if you want to see us talk about more things I'm all for it.
Thank you once again for supporting us and we'll do our best to keep handing you out quality content. xD
Have a nice day all, or again, as Stan-the-Man Lee would say,
Man, you are not just good with edits or drawings, but are good writing too! Good to know there's more people that think the hentai it's an art too! Well, I appreciate a lot of art styles, and hentai is one of them, some pictures I don't see anymore as just a "cartoon porn", but as a art! Sometimes I even forgot that image have a adult content. And your drawings, man, are art! Beaufitul piece of art!
ReplyDeleteI was making a drawing of my own characters too and I always get a lot of people saying "can you make her nude?" or something like that XD, of course my drawings are not so good, I always use a picture as a base for the body or clothes, than I make my changes to fit with my character, increase or decrease the boob/butt size, make the hand smaller or larger or in a different position, everything according to the feature of my character, and I make the face and hair tottally from my mind. Well, it's not quite good like yours, but I really enjoy to draw, each new drawing I do I become a little better, I saw my mystakes and try to fix in the next one. I hope someday I come more closer to your quality, but I'm still so far away XD
Back to you, It's so good that you are sharing your works here, your edits and your own arts. All days I come here too see what's new from both you and Eron. Also it's good to see you both are charismatic, always try to answer the comments and treats yours fans well.
Anyway, I'm just a mortal and I will never stop doing my drawings (oh, they are not hentai, just a few), and I hope you will not stop too, since you already reached a high level skills to draw! We all wanted too see more works from you! And of course, always take your time, always draw what you want and when you want! But please, don't stop.
I hope someday you start making money with your arts, because you deserve.
Also, I fucking love Death Note and Steins;Gate too! But my favorite so far always will be Berserk! Specially the manga.
Oh, and sorry for my english XD
No problem and I get where you're coming from. I never started directly doing hentai. I actually started with trying to do stories in comic book form for superheroes I enjoyed and than I went on to try my hand at more serious stories. Some came good some not so much and the art was crued but I do still kind of fine some enjoyment from them now, years later, when I check them out occasionally. xD
ReplyDeleteVery long and interesting post. Well, even and positive. But your lyrics have always been famous positive. This is normal :)
ReplyDeleteYes, you're right Hentai is an art. Simply, there are people for whom the custom sex - is a perversion. And there are people who create extraordinary out of the ordinary things. They can convey absolutely amazing mood.
Yes, Death Note and Steins; Gate amazing works. Many people underestimate the Steins; Gate call it boring and stupid. But it is not. It works by affecting the deepest chord of your soul. And it makes us think about many things.
And I've always admired people who learn to draw. Because with them it is always interesting. They are creative people. With the development of creative thinking. In the end, the artists see the world not as other people. And it's amazing. Because the painting gives a huge leap in the development of the brain. In general, many people underestimate this kind of activity. But it plays a huge role in human life. Because a person's life - the perception of reality. And developing these areas you have a very different look at life.
I wish you good luck and every success in your work.
Sorry for the bad Google translator: D
It' super late in the night now when I'm typing and posting this reply. I'm struggling to get my degree paper done by the morning. I am very stressed , not sure if this paper I'm doing is even good enough to get my degree. Have no one to talk to now so late in the calm myself down. And tommorow is the last day to sign-up for exams. All in all I'm very stressed and trust me bad Google translate or not reading the post made me feel better. So thank you for that. Now I just hope I get it done in time.
Deleteadded images with links, thanks for letting me know Monster exists ;)
ReplyDeleteWow jarvis this is just great man :) thanks for sharing your story!
ReplyDeleteI think all editors have the same struggle with the way their work is being received but for me and probably for you guys too, it's about the feedback from other editors or the joy of finishing something after many hours and be able to share it and be proud of it.
And I have been thinking about watching monster for a veryyy long time.. maybe I should now haha
