Whoops! My bad.

Thanks for the Wiki link, Arch. It'll help a lot!

SMF, tell Vexiphne to keep up the great rendering work.

Not necessarily.

While yaoi (also known as Shonen Ai) is a common theme, so is one girl vying for the attention of many boys. For example, the Fruits Basket manga, while its filled with a plethora of bishies, is at it's heart a story about a young girl who stumbles on a dark family secret, and through her caring nature, brings about changes in every member of the family.

I guess the biggest thing about Bishonen is the fact that the guys are more feminine in both their looks and (at times)outlooks, where as the guys in regular Shonen (Dragonball, Gundam, Yu-Gi-OH) are more rough-and-tumble.

I guess overall, the Bishonen style is all about pretty boy looks and romance. But don't quote me on it.

That...looks...so...COOL!!

Seriously, that is a great composition you've got going. I can't wait to see how it turns out.

Congrats to the winners!

No problem. Everything looks great! Good luck with school.

((Heh, I knew my knowledge of Manga and Anime would come in handy someday.))

It's called 'Bishonen' (roughly translates as 'pretty boy'), and is a very popular style over in Japan. Usually drawn by women for women, many 'Bishonen' or Bishie themes include vampires, demons, angels and, shall we say 'forbidden love'?

Anyway, that's what it's called. If you want more info, type 'Bishonen' into Google or Wikipedia and see what you find.

Thanks, Rowr. I appreciate that.

As for Anime and Furry being strikes, maybe I'm just seeing attitudes that aren't there. Forget about it. One thing's for sure, though, I am going to get back into drawing, retraining myself to do better.

I haven't drawn much in the last 5 years, so I'm really rusty. But, here's a few works that you might like. I posted them once, and didn't get much of a response, so here we go again.

Amazon Mouse
Girl Reading
Fantasy Thief
Bard Mouse
Adventurer
Ravespryte
A Pair of Clerics
Reploid Rabbit
Metal Fighter Vixxen
Catgirl with Mallet

I know they're not that great, with both the Anime and Furry styles being strikes against them, but here they are.

Agreed, these are great! I'm especially loving both Bombshell and Atomic Blast Man. Keep it up!

Here's Nezumi-Ko, my magical mousegirl.

((Sorry for the small size, looks like Photobucket resized the larger ones. They should still be clear enough to see, right?))

May I please have one of your wonderful logos for Heavy Metal Pharaoh?

You're right, that would hurt. Nice camera angles.

Aw, come on, TA. You knew it was bound to happen. Given how few pics I have of my main, Draco, if someone drew him like that, I'd definintely keep it.

Besides, it could be worse...

Wow! Very nice. I'm sorry I missed out on this...

Those are some very colorful villains. I wonder if they're trying to blind their victims with their bad fashion sense?

Is it too late to get in on this?

To be fair, I'm only posting one:

Draco Templaris

I don't know if I sent you my thanks for this, Alt, so I'll put it here.

Thank you for creating this wonderful chart. It has helped me out more than you could ever know...

To everyone else, I'm the one who requested this chart. You're welcome.

Yes!! About time!

Thank you for this wonderful, yet deceptively simple guide to naming!

I salute you!

I've got one...

Do not invite someone without checking to see where they are first.

Over my main's career, I've had several invites where I've been in one zone (or area within a zone, like the Tunnels in the Hollows), and gotten invited to a team that was clear across the city (in Boomtown, Striga, Croatoa, etc.)

Wasted several good minutes just getting to the mission...

Recluse: Won't you take me to... Funky Town? Won't you take me to... Funky Town?

In response to someone's questions about the undead specters...they look similar to the one's the COT use... Maybe (wild speculation) the COT and Tsoo team up? Either that, or a completely new mystic group suitable to the genre/setting?

Anyway...good stuff... I especially love all of the costumes...I predict that our COH/COV is going to get a major facelift in the coming months...

Have it, read it, loved it.

In fact, it's given me ideas for a role-playing campaign set in the early era of Paragon City... All I need is a list of suitable villain groups for that era.

I know that Arachnos (in an earlier form), Nemesis, and the Family would be most appropriate... Any others?
