Xmas Special 2

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Special thanks: Shinies from the Evageeks forum for the sugestion
Mount Fuji image on BG: Google Earth

X-mas special 1

A hovering object was found over Tokio III!
Let's be paranoid and fire at discretion!
All the buildings are brushes and the Santa is a resin figure my mom has around...
What a sad destiny... Could it be...
The end of Christmas!?

Something You May Use

Hello!
Just finished this one... I've had the idea of a page marker since a long time ago (even before the conception of the blog itself!)
The look a bit jammed there don't you think?
I decided not to erase the joints this time (the ugly truth: got lazy)...
All you have to do now is print; pierce the upper part and slide a ribbon or string to use!
You may want to plastify it...
I have one planned for the Rebuild Evas, but I dunno if make it 'till the movies are finished (that may take one or two years) or make them with the ones I've got so far...
Anyhow, the next image is the Xmas special!
Got something nice in the oven for next week!

Neo-Skin (no trademark infrightment intended)

The new skin of my Eva 04:

Aditionally, I rehearshed with this machine-gun that a friend gave me...

So... He has a toy for his own!

The Evangelion 2.0 group photo:

OMG! Eva 03 is an angel! And he pretended to be your friend!
He betrayed our feelings!

Itsuwari no Saisei

Well... I think it came out right...
Guess what ship is it?
I used some new fire brushes and water splashes...
Had no time to erase the joints in elbows... Have something planed for next week...
PS: The mountains in the far BG are recycled... From what drawing?

The Block-Buster Attacks!

The Block-Buster Attacks!
A friend lent me a set of LEGO blocks... And I built this!
Curiously, Eva 00 is indeed being held by the figure, usually I make a composite image from different images...
Now, I figured out a way to put a stand in the 1st generation Evas (where the umbilical cord would be) like you do on the more recent ones; that's how Eva 02 can stand in that pose...
I re-used the buildings and added some smoke in the back of the "monster", they're supposed to be jetpacks; and for some reason, he has a cape...
I added the magnetic field lines on the crossbow Eva 02 has and added the bolts flying towards the thingie, could't conceive a way to make them impact...
When you re-interpret this un-cannonical image, ain't it nice? Shinji attacking the monster hand-to-hand in order to save Rei?

Jump!

As usual, finishing in the deadline...
I went to eat with my dad last week and this river was around... Then I remembered someone comenting on adding an Eva to a picture...
Well, here is it... Not very well, I really don't like how the water reflection came out...
I didn´t had time even to erase the joints in the elbows and neck...
Damm! I left there the wires of the bridge I was standing on when I took the picture [those twisted thingies on the lowest part]!!!
I'll try to do a better one next week ;D

Storage

Eva 04 will guide you across the storage drawers:

They fit all the things the box can't contain, in order and neatly; here, Eva 00 (blue) drawer:

The simple naming system will make sure that no piece is left out of place:
Go to your nearest Home Deep-Ot now! I got this for less than $15!

Confess!

Been playing with the light sources... I used a new croma key for this one: I had to be holding a 3 pound lamp with a hand while taking a non-shaky pic with the other... Kinda hard.
For some reason it is very easy to imagine the MP Evas being mutilated, mistreated, used, abused and/or sodomized...
I thought it would be harder to draw a BG from zero, but I think it turned out right... Why a dungeon? Dunno, better than another pic in Nerv with flat trees...
I only forgot to re-draw Unit 03's eyes...
The eyes always look opaque in the pictures...

Bloody Brunch in the Mist

So... They're at it again...
Poor Eva 02...
Why an excess of mist?
A) Didn't wanna draw the bloody Eva 02
B) I did this 5 minutes ago 'cuz I have been having way too much homework...
C) There are some.. Production errors hidden in it...
In other words:
Sorry for the cheap image... Couldn't even erase or fade the joints of all Evas...

Halloween Special I : "Trick 'r Treat"

Someone in the Eva-geeks forum mentioned Halloween-themed images, I came up with this one, the other one (which I was suggested to make) is in production...
Ain't Unit-02 original for costumes? Cosplaying himself Beast-mode!
Note: Haven't you seen that Moon and stars before...?

Shin Seiki Evangelion

Yay!
I managed to end (sort of) my homework and made this!
This is the 1st image that features more than 3 Evas and ironically, they were taken separately...
Each Eva was photographed individually and then added to the BG, that easens the editing of the body armor, wrists and neck.
All the eyes (well, of those with eyes) were drawn on 'cuz they were almost invisible in the picture.
I wonder why it's everything burned up... Iguess someone dropped his N2 mine...

For Your Eyes Only

The storyboard of something I'm cooking up in Macrommedia... Will take a while... Can you can figure it out?
I add some images of the Evas themselves "for your eyes only"...

Keep your Head Above the Mayhem...

Finally! They're all complete!
Mari "Parachuter" Makinami [A. K. A. Mari "4-eyed"; "hijacker"; "nutcase"; "Ze Bisto"; "pink-plugsuited"; "brunette"; "The Eva self-destructor" and "british-gal" Makinami] with the Mari-jacked Eva 02 is here!
I was testing the last tree brushes I had, that's why it looks like a cheap diorama...
Originally there was one of the Eva running with the Thunder-spear, but censorship forbade me to portray anyone running with a sharp object...
Now, this was the first image that used a green-screen in the back to easen the BG removal... Wasn´t easier... I have to improve that...
Now that Every figure I have has been made into a pic, its time to return to the old style (a couple of Evas fighting or remake a climatic moment in the Tv series or movies).
I take requests!
TKZ!

Wings, please...

I was waiting to discover many ways to portray the climatic moment of Evangelion 2.0 after all the Eva+pilot drawings...
Ultimately I chose this one; discarded drafts included a side view of the Eva; Shinji in a plug suit with a warrior-face with the Eva firing eye-beams and an EoE like scene (when it raises in a tornado of dust) view of the awakened Eva-01 with the halo...
The glow of the arm and eyes is a half-transparent layer, amd the core and skin of eva 01 was drawn on, in the original picture, I had removed the upper chest plates...
Curiously, the Eva has no feet! The original picture left them out... That's why I had to place the Angel's core there...
Only one Eva+pilot picture to go!

Something cool... (?)

A little something I made with Macromedia...
1st time I use the program so it's a little crappy...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4oRjXYjkFE

Pachinko!?

A lot of splashes, flashes and new brushes!

Oh... And Unit 04... The unit is holding the clear riot shield of the 1st Units 03 and 04, hard to make out through all that pink...

The thing is... There's no pilot!

In the Pachinko promo, when this Eva deflects Ramiel's power beam and then impales it with the Lance of Longinus, Kaworu is hovering by the unit, controlling it via some freaky-angel-kinesis-power... I couldn't find a suitable image of Kaworu...

But then again, he wasn't precisely in the Entry Plug, wasn't he?

The Final Decision we all Must Take

Yay! I wanted to make this one! But ramdomness make it come out before Mari with unit 02 before the Besat mode...
The NERV pyramid is from EoE and the buildings from 2.0...
I think I could have done better with the trees in the BG but I've been having homework like hell!
I'm already making the next one... Figuring out how to draw and angel's energy beam...
By the way... Does anyone know who made the Mari drawing? I found it in Google but there was no info on the autor...

Gemini Eva

A now friend of mine asked me how I had customized mi Eva 03 into a unit 04... So I told him how and he made his own! Awhh... Now my Eva 04 is not unique T-T...
He used the "official" color scheme of the Eva (the one that is seen in 2 or 3 images in Google and a very low quality video on Youtube).
My figure is the one on the right...

Destiny

Yeah... mount Fuji in the bacground is a picture... Actually, as seen fromHakone...
I dunno to where is the Eva running... Rei is from a promotional of 2.0 and the buildings are a random image I found, recolored and blurred...
I drew the black lines od the Eva's helmet 'cuz they weren't visible in the picture...
I thinks that's it...

Let's go KA-BOOM!

Kaiyodo and Bandai can go to hell!

Fate

I know... The threes look as fake as the possibility to have 3.0 before the end of the year...
Considering how tall a pine three is, the eva here is in no way near 80 meters... But what the heck! In the Tv they could be up to 200...
The original idea for this drawing was to have the Eva jumping towards you, but it proved hard to keep the figure in focus, the head would be OK, but the feet and Prog. Knives would be barely visible...
It was easy to erase the elbow joints this time... Asuka on the other hand: the image was a very low quality, so I had to scale it slowly to keep it from pixeling... I think she came out right...

Puppets

What can I say about this bastards...
They are creepy and bloodlusting, so they are cool...
They [theoretically] kill Asuka and savagely destroy Unit-02, so thumbs down...
When I attempted to erase the elbow joints I came acroos a BIG problem, so I couldn't do so, in any case I re-added the little details that are either not painted nor visible (like the details on the Entry Plug cover). It makes (to me) sense to place Kaworu as the pilot, since the Dummy Plug they use is made from him.
Originally, the bleeding arm of unit 02 was going to be in the pic, but backed off in the last moment... The whole scene makes me really uneasy...

Image update

With the advent of mi touch Pc I took a trip into memories...
That is, the photoshop files of all my images...
From the original Image of Eva 00 trowing the lance and on, I re-uploaded the images.
Anything new? Why yes!
I fixed some design problems (such as the elbow joints) and edited some little details (like an unproperly erased BG); aditionally I erased the text that read "EVA unit..." of all the pictures... In retrospective, I never really liked that...
Maybe I'll update the pictures some day again (like adding buildings or the promised electric wire towers of the pictures of the unit 03's)
You can add a comment here If you would like the new drawing version with the "EVA unit..." lettering on...

Kaji's BIG gulp

A little something...
They where discusing in the Evageeks forum about drinking an LCL-ed person, and someone commented on a .gif image about someone doing so and having a character bursting outta them... I'm not a very good animator, but well... Enjoy ;D

The lost Eva

Eva unit-04, what hapened to it?
Maybe Kaji knows! But he's dead so...
This one is very simple... Did it in a rush to have it in time...
Acording to it the Eva went crazy, took a machinegun and murdered everyone!
Then, he pressed the Dirac-Self-Destruction button and destroyed the whole base!
Dum dum dum

The girl with the red eyes

Something I had been itching to do for a long time...

There are over 20 different layers in the PS file... The red sky, drawn; the stars, a picture that had the black sky removed; the moon, another picture with shine and reddish filter; mountains and lake, from other 2 pictures; the buildings are from screenshots of Evangelion 2.22; in the far BG you can see the weird statue from Death and Rebirth, as seen in the 1st scene of the End of Evangelion; Rei is a "donated" pic; my Eva 00 and the Lance of Longinus, wich actually is NOT being held by the figure, it was inserted later 'cuz the figure could not stand while holding it...

Overall... My masterpiece... Cooking something for next Saturday...

I'm on vacations...

SPECIAL THANKS: insomniac from the Evageeks forum, for the pic of his Rei Fraülein.

A crystaline night sky

It may be repetitive to have Eva 00 holding the shield again, but let's face it: it's the only thing the Eva does before being repaired...
Rei is a screenshot fron Death and Rebirth (we all agree that the same scene from the TV series sucks)
This one is very simple, I only erased the articulations and added a cold filter to the image...
In retrospective, I should have made a picture of Unit 00 stoping the angel's power beam...
But then again, an action pic would not have suited Rei very well...

A step forward [into terror]

At last a (decent) new post!

Asuka and Nigoki!

With the help of my new touchsmart PC I have done things I never dreamt of!

I erased practically every articulation, added shadings, lightings, colorings and other gerunds...

Asuka is her ever-famous screenshot from the intro of the anime, if you see closely, you'll see shading on her lips (though not much of it).

As I said, I erased every visible articulation; redrew tha neck of the Eva and colored the missing part of the frontal armor and (though the water splashes cover them) the knees...

Unfortunately the font of the text that reads "Evangelion model X" is missing, so I had to change it...

I'll try to return to the original post-per-week sequence :D

EDIT: Re-made most of the image (that is, the BG, the mid-BG, the water splashes and changed Asuka from the Tv opening scene to the 2009 calendar picture :D

New toys!

'Cuz they have some new toys!

Happy?

Why are they so happy?

General-purpose Humanoid Decisive Battle Weapon, Generation Test Model Evangelion Unit 4

This one is a little something I took. While not complete with pilot and a nice BG, they where fun to make ;D


With his bro

Pachinko!?

Unit-00 is like o_o

Hey... That Rifle is 00 's too!

À la Jill Valentine in Resident Evil 5!

Air (2)

Finally an Eva unit 02!
This one is by far the most complex one yet, it includes the hand-drawn BG, the Asuka screenshot and the blur in the figure.
The BG is supposed to replicate the forest of Nerv HQ, in the front there are a couple of trees, I took pics of many scenes in the geofront to see how the trees looked like...
Asuka is also a Scrennshot, however I took the time to add shadows and other details (such as enhance hair reflections and eye color). The green part of her plugsuit was re-colored 'cuz it was a dull greyish-green in the movie (really, watch it in detail and you'll see).
The figure has a "motion blurring" (a little photo filter that I recently dicovered), how to make parts of the figure move in different directions?
Only I know...

Modo Hanten, Ura Kodo: Ze Bisto!

I have way to much fun doing this...
