Guess who got fabric for a Jaaa~ckle costume?

Mental note: I should check my 'mons before saying they don't look different. Pikachu-Pichu is, indeed, Pikachu -.-

He falls asleep in battle. I think it's because I didn't have the forest badge, but Maybe Pichu just hates me. :lol:

I like the 3-D. It adds dimension without being overbearing. Too bad it suffers from "City Folk Rolling Barrel" Syndrome. Everything seems to be on a hill.

That is probably it, then. I've had Pokémon fall asleep on my before because I didn't have enough badges. It's obnoxious, but it does curb unfair advantages XD I doubt the sweet, innocent, adorable Pichu would ever hate you! *Whisper* I'D WATCH MY BACK IF I WERE YOU!

As for the 3-D, like you said, the 'hill vision' is rather unnerving. It's just my opinion alone on the 3-D really; I have a special affinity for 2-D pixel art. Has more soul in it for me XP Mmm, eye-candy~
But regardless, I probably shouldn't have picked ‘God-awful' for the wording, since the graphics in D/P really aren't that bad. Whoops!

Dude...I need a to find someone as crazy as I am for keeping my writing spirit from falling asleep. Like a beta reader... It's probably because of the dreams of beating down Yaridovich...or however you spell it. Said dreams are egged on from thoughts of how your average gamer, after madly going through 18 worlds for family and friends, finds herself in a world she loves...and needs something to take her anger out on. :P Oohhh... so many ways to destroy a weapon beast... I like the Mewtwo-psychic variation where the thing gets crushed. Or the "Let's steal Yarid's head" play. XP

I'm sorry for confusing anybody. ^^; Just feels like I need someone to help plan out things sometimes. Guess that's what happens when one's an only child and lives on the outskirts of a city. *shrug*

...

Yeah. Writing's more than just a hobby. IT'S! A! PASSION! *flames erupt in background* Bwahahaha!

I know how you feel on that front. I'm busy with a comic, and I never would have even gotten a script if it weren't for friend of mine proof-reading and bouncing back ideas. Having another opinion on things, and constructive critic, really helps keep you motivated and helps you improve. Or just someone to talk with about your writing and help keep you motivated/annoyed enough to keep it up XP So getting a Beta-reader is a great idea, happy hunting Smash!

How about when you're drawing up plans to turn your cat's bed into the Ideya Palace? X3

Teehee, I got my Pikachu-colored Pichus over a week ago X3 I'm assuming they won't look any different until transferred into Soul Silver/Heart Gold. (EDIT: Pfft, shoulda actually looked at the darned 'mons before assuming they weren't different DX) How does your Pichu keep falling asleep? In battle, I assume?
And Zoroark looks awesome. Yay Evil-Fox-Pokémon! I really hope Soul Silver/Heart Gold is good. Fire Red/Leaf Green was great, but since the Gold/Silver/Crystal trilogy is a fan favorite it'll be a little harder to live up to. We can already see it has those God-awful Pearl/Diamond 3D graphics. Bleck >8C

I just noticed that in the main picture of TRiPPY's old room in the art section, Pyramid Head against a rainbow backdrop is the wallpaper on her computer. Epic win, Ms. TRiPPY >83 That makes me want a similar wallpaper. But with Valitel.

I TOTALLY imagined you stroking a beard when you said that first line. XDDD
Gah~! I NEED to find a pattern for Jackle's freaking mantle! I don't wanna do it free hand, I just know I'll mess it up. T ^ T

Thankfully I happen to have in my possession a fake glue-on beard. *Strokes beard*

How much do you have planned on the mantle? I like this picture right here; it's a good reference point LINK

I'm not experienced with fabric, but I've been toying with the idea of just cutting out the single shape of the cape out of both black and white material, and sewing it together with batting in the middle. A thin cape would be yucky, after all, since Jackle's cape is very straight. You could also tie a black string between the tips on the cape and your wrists, so it stays straight and follows your hands. First step is of course is figuring out what size you want. I'd say twice your shoulder length at least before splitting it into points. Draw on your measured fabric until you get a look you like. I'd probably do it on the inside first, then trace onto the outside so you can make the outside a little bigger, wrapping it a bit so you don't have sewing points on the outside. Then you can make the patterns with cut-out fabric, and a schmancy stitch from the sewing machine. Those are just my ideas, I have no idea if they'll work or not.
