By the way I always thought you had the most killer awesome scanner in the whole internet. I have never scaned pictures with that quality ever!!! O.o

Actually both of the scanners I used for the gallery were cheap crappy ones. I just happen to be patient enough to let it scan at 1000dpi and then clean it up by hand in Photoshop.

By the way, I'ma be coming by some stuff that's totally worth translating. Ger is busy translating a whole novel, but these are just single pages, so if any of you n00bs need practice...

Ahem. Let's post some pictures! I'm almost done with capping and cleaning the first arc.



Oh noes! The pretty boys are fighting!



Grr. Hulk smash!



pwned! Oh darling, why don't I take you into the back room and soothe your ego. With my tongue.



Extra strands of hair make him extra sexy!



I'm posting this one because I god damn drove myself nuts with it. The source material SUCKED SUCKED SUCKED, which is a shame because it's a rather lovely image of him. Did the best I could.

I realize there's a bit of a trend in this post that might alienate a large population of this forum that's more interested in the BITCHES. Here, have some Juri.



Yeah, I'd hit it.



Hard.

I think I'm drooling way too much over the awesome Juri pics to really say anything coherent. I you Gio.

Hehe, it actually looks quite natural.

Thanks I hoped it would look ok and I was worried that I might have the breasts at a wrong angle, I'm glad it turned out ok.

I always thought that it was strange that Utena could get away with wearing a uniform that wasn't either the standard girl's or even standard boy's uniform so I decided to draw up a picture of Utena wearing the standard Ohtori Academy Boy's uniform.


I hope it looks ok

Ohh, it looks nice!
But I think black suits her better though.

That always bothered the hell out of me.
Utena, episode 1:
"There's no rule stating that girls can't wear the boys uniform. So it shouldn't be a problem"
It wouldn't be a problem it you acctually were wearing the boys uniform.

And it looks great btw.

Thats exactly the quote that bothered me and thanks

I am forced to agree with you there, her special uniform is still the best, I just wanted to see her in a normal boy's uniform.

The edit is very nice, Tamago. A true tribute to Gio's hard work.

And Utena looks very cute in the standard uniform.

Gio's hard work? You mean she drew this sketch that I based my pic on?

http://www.ohtori.nu/gallery/sketchbook/Misc11.gif I used the middle guy as the basis for my Utena pic.

Great pic, Tamago.

Yeah, it always bugged me too. At first glance, you might think that if Utena has just entered Ohtori, she's still wearing the (boy's) uniform of her old school. You'll see this in other stories. But the guidance counselor says in the first episode that Utena is going to cause trouble for another term. Meaning, she's already been there for a term. I'd think that would be plenty of time to secure a new uniform.

THIS IS FUCKING MISERABLE TEDIOUS SHIT

FUCK

SERIOUSLY.

I'm currently attempting to encorporate images from the artbooks into the screencaps. Because I'm sorting first by source material, a high resolution shot from an artbook is still going in with the screencaps in the episode it belongs to. (High res images will have their own search tag to sort them out.) This is hugely tedious and also unholy since at the moment I'm being enough of a Nazi to remove obstructions on the image. For example, this became this.

Also WHAT THE FUCK IS IT WITH RED AND JPEGS THAT THEY INSIST ON SHITTING ALL OVER ANYTHING THAT'S RED.

FOR THOSE OF YOU PLAYING THE HOME GAME, THAT'S...EVERY SINGLE FUCKING THING IN THE GOD DAMN SERIES. FUCK. I almost don't want Akio to show up just because that's even more god damn red to deal with.

This is how I feel about that. I'm going to want to reopen AUCT before this done.

Oh yeah, I know how it feels with "removing obstacles" from images.  I call that "image restoration".  I used to do that a lot when doing my site layout (or wallpaper).  I would get a good image somewhere from the web and majorly edit it, pixel by pixel, draw in missing parts, so it would fit for a layout.  (Like...this, became this)

It is very time consuming, but the end result would worths all the hard work.  Thanks for the hard work
