Hello. It's been a while.

Hello fellow deviants, BE Avenger here.

This is my first journal since late July. You can guess that I haven't anything revelant to tell back then. Well the true is that I had a few things to tell you, but I was damn' too busy to tell you.

First of all, my year of preparation class for fine art schools is getting smooth so far. I've done a few good works according to my teacher (and one really crappy thanks to H1N1) which helped me to end this semester with quite good grade, especially in sketch class. Frankly I never felt that happy to go to school after my traumatising passage at the uni and after being almost bored to death trying to earn another diploma in two years. I don't know If I could hold the one week/one drawing pace for long since the entry exams are coming fast.

Now some bad news: The SP3 blowed up my Win XP, that's all. I had to reinstall everything but I didn't loose any important work or files, i.e internet por.... drawings. Yeah, basically it's the same.

And now thigs about videogames:
I played Call Of Duty MW2, it's a dumb game. Honestly, if the scenario wasn't so retarted, if you could FREAKING LEAN !!!!, if it lasts more than 5 hours in commando, if the rythm was more balanced and if there is an I.A, it would still not worth it's price. 60 euros (80 dollars !!) for a PC game is way too much. Honestly I didn't like it at all it was like Infinite Ward gave me the fingers and rub it to my face.
It deserves a 4/10 because I'm not an idiot and this game is frustrating. Also since the multi is like MW1 it is not interesting.

Borderland, if there is an FPS you should buy it's this one. It's fun, it's a bit original, the graphics are good and original. On the other hand it can be a bit boring from time to time and there is a lot of bugs. None the less I was amused by this game and I hope that Gearbox software will do a second episode for that new licence. It's a honest 7.5/10 game and for the price I paid it (steam sale) it definitively worths it.

I also played Uncharted 2.I liked the first one which was a good game but not a revolution. This game isn't the most original game of all but it is something solid. It is quite short but there is a genuine replay value with the clever achievements that allow you to unlock many features, even for the multiplayer which is good despite being original. But the best thing in Uncharted 2 aside of its graphics is the rythm. It is genuinly perfect, never an action game was so poised and balanced in its rythm since HL². You never, EVER, feel frustrated because of A true pleasure that I hope we will find in Uncharted 3.
Honestly I give him a solid 9/10, it's not a revolution, but it is that good at what it does and there is co-op games.

So that's all for the moment, I'm still wainting for Bayonetta since the demo gave me the stiffy and for GT5 hoping it will keep all of its promises.

Now all I have to do is to wich you a mery christmas and an happy new year.

Hello. It's been a while.

Some news:
As you have certainly see, there was only one update last week and I apologise for this (I promised to do at least two updates per week).
I had to draw and re-drawn a few works in order to pass an appointement for a preparatory class of art that will allow me to (theorically) join the greatest art's school of France and that degree of computer art, which is my real goal.
Now this mean that there is two news, one good, one bad.
The bad news: From October to June, the updates of this ver page will slow down, which means no new BE Avenger this year, again. That is mostly because of the good news: I am officially an art student getting prepare to pass the entrance exam for the best art's schools of France (theorically) and getting a top notch dossier to become a computer artist (which is more likely to happen). I will have a really busy year with very few vacantions and I have to change my priority during these months of practicing.
I hope it will worth it and that my art will improve dramatically. I always wanted to know how it feels to be a good artist.

Videogames, yeah!
Other piece of news: I always spat on RPG video games, and especially on the Japanese RPG with their un-roleplayistic system of experience (aka fighting whatever is in my sight). I hate diablo with a passion (by the way: Blizzard, please die), and almost anything that isn't labelled Bioware or Black Isle studio can just go to hell. I never found all the possibilities given by a proper table RPG in these videogames, unless it's a Fallout game. Yes this long, hatefull and boring introduction was just made to come to my next topic: RPG on video games.

As I said before, I like Fallout, especially the 2 despite I never really finish them. So I tried to give a chance to the third episode depsite all the scream of agony of the harcore fans I know on the forum of my favourite French gaming magazinen (it's a nest of fallout adorators). My impressions are that this game is not a fallout. Call whatever you want but this is not a fallout.
In a fallout you are not obliged to blow the head of anybody. In a fallout you can plays as Dumbass MacTwit and manage to have fun. in a fallout game you can win, pacifically forever. In a Fallout you laugh on black humor. None of the elements said before are in this game. It is a waste, even when you mod it. Bethesda didn't even bother to take the good elements of Oblivion for this game. Where is the really funny minigame related to speech (the one with the weel on the upper left coprner of the HUD). And what is this physics engine ? Everything feels like it has no inertia and the guns are as punchy as a nerf launcher. A dreadful games completely obliterate to be played on a gaming console!

If you want some real Post apocalyptique first person game get STALKER Oblivion Lost. That game made me soil my underwear a lot of time.

Another RPG I am playing these time, Final Fantasy VII thanks to the PSN. When I was younger (10 years ago, more precisely) a friend of mine lend me his copy of Finakl fantasy VII. and I never finished the first CD. Sony allowed me to take revenger on my younger time thanks to this magnificent Proust's madeleine, for those who read "In Search of Lost Time". After nearly 32hours of game and a great level 50 (which help a lot, thanks Xp farming), I'd like to say that wath Final Fantasy VII's fans say about this game makes absolute sens. It is just that good, that epic. Sure it has some flaws like the random battles that are a pain when you have a low level, the crappy French translation ("spot the mispelling" is a game ine the game)or the controls that are a bit stiff because of the camera.

Still, it is a great story, the backgrounds are magnificent despite the age of the game and the universe is staggering with this mix of steam-punk, cyber-punk and Heroic Fantasy.
Playing again with Clad, Aeris, Baret, Tifa (F-CUP !), Red XIII, Cid, Cat Sith and the newbies that I didn't manage to get on my first attempt: Vincente and Yufie, who is my favorite character. Yes, despite Tifa's breasts, goddammit.
FFVIIis actually one of the very few games that made me cried, a bit. The other ones are Silent Hill 2 and Call Of Duty 4. Yup, COD4 made my cry when I realise that it costed me 60 euros (84 dollars)for 6 hours of game in comando difficulty with the worst multiplayer ever made and that people are stupid enough to thins IT'S A GOOD GAME!

FFVI leave a so good impression on me that It actually made me want to try other Final Fantasy that are not the 8th, or should I call it Final Fantasyhills 90210. So I bought FFXII. My impressions after 3 hours aren't really settled. The game is rather good looking, the hero looks a bit girly but the overal design still really, really good. thanks Mister amano for your design reshearch. I just regret that the fighting sytem is more like an MMORPG and doesn't use the good old round by round system. Like in table RPG.
For all the possessors of Xbox360: how is Tales of Vesperia? I'm waiting for the PS3 version of that game. With Kosuke Fujishima's characters design (Aah! Megami sama/ Ah! My goddess!)

At least these old games are still more entertaining that most of the new gen games I bought recently like resident Evil 5, which is dreadful, don't buy it if you like the RE saga. Seriously!

GRID was another disapointement. As a racing simulator fan i must say that I am starting to worry a bit. The cars feel like their tires are made out of soap and that the track is covered in oil, there is no qualification laps which means you are always at the bottom of the start on an unknown track. So you don't know how your car will behave and where you must brake or turn, but that's not important since you cannot change the setups. You can drive like a lunatic and brake/accelerate/turn/all above without fearing the consequences. The other driver of your team is an idiot and an asshole: I can't stop counting how many time he literally ram into my rear bumper or wings when I was on the lead.
At least the racing team generator allowed me to create Dickbutt Racing and to nicknammed myself "Furyo" thanks to my rageous driving style after my 55th attempt to finish the race because of the IA and/or that unknow corner I would pass properly if I was doing a qualification lap.
Still, I hope Gran Turismo 5 will come soon since there is no more racing games dealing about the WRC. Stupide new gen !

Yo, long time no see...

Ok, now I am getting both worried and angry. As you may have seen, I am publishing some drawings as soon as I have free time on my busy schedule. They are not the best in the world, sadly, there is less and less new works posted here because of my intership that is sucking all my time until late June. But the number of view or comment is still lowering and every time I ask for a critic, there is nobody.
I am , technically, pissed off. There is a lot of other artists who have quite different works from the ones I do who get a lot of critics that help them to progress. Maybe you don't know, but getting these critics means a lot: It means a way to progress, it means that people are interested by my works, it means that people want to share their knowlege and/or observations.
At this rate don't expect me to do anymore art-trade, well, almost nobody wants to fucking trade with measide of two people, or to finally get these commissions that are on hiatus because of some bloody depression AND bloody schedulse from that horrendous school!

What is the meaning of having such an interesting tool, inviting people to use it on purpose, hoping to get all that knowledge witht the will to improve if nobody gives a damn ? Or is it a way to confirm my art is as bad as I think ? Answer me for christ's sake. I am getting really worried by that.
What I will say is not really pleasant, but at this rate, I will stop this gallery. There is no point to continue to spent time on something that doesn't work or have stopped to. I am talking about the time it takes to edit an A3 drawing to make it nice enough and with the right size, levels of lights, brightness and contrasts to be posted here, about the 7 bloody hours and the headache and the lack of sleep I had to go through for my latest crappy colored work. And sorry, as cocky and self centered as it sounds, I really hate when what I do and let everybody see is facing indifference. you cannot like it but speak!
Yes, I know, there is the core of people who are keeping watching this. But it's hard to have an opinion of what you do when you have a very poor image of yourself and few points of view.

This message is not only about me but for the other gret artists I know who are in same, or worst, situations.
There is things I really cannot let go.

Another scream who will never reach someone's ear. I think i'm getting sick of this.

Yo, long time no see...

As you can see, i really dind't talked that much during these last months and I have posted as much as I used to do.
Well frankly, several factors were the reasons of such slow time an lack of motivation:
first i was quite busy, I had an important project for school (that was completely busted, thanks to my team), I am currently trying to get enlist for a year of degree (with not that much chances to success, according to that letter sent today by my University), there is less and less viewer cheking this gallery and I currently have a really serious case of depression since late december thanks to this and the usual stuff (aka my self hatred)i'm a bit lost. I almost stopped definitively to draw several times.
I didn't want to write too much because I would have avoid that a note would have turned into "The complain of the poor Whiny MacWhine" (which is pretty much geopardise now that your are reading this).

Now the good news. Oh wait! There just one. I didn't manage to get a job for this summer, so it means that I am likely to have plenty of free time to get depressed and draw. The chance that there is a new season of BE avenger somewhat increased. But the chance to see it inked dropped dramatically. I didn't had the time recently to practice inking.

On the other I don't see why I bother writting that because nobody gives a damn about this gallery and would have probably forget it for late September...

Hello, it's been a while.

I have several pieces of news to talk about:
First, This very page will hit 200.000 visitors soon. I a month, maybe less maybe more, you have the possibility to win a kiriban.
To win this Kiriban, you have to post a screenshot of the main page when it hits 200K visitors. Good luck.

Other news, I will get another level in the videogame "Real Life" in exactly a month. And like every year I am getting a bit anxious about that so no worries if I literraly get mad in the short periode of time that is between the 14th February *le sigh* and the 17th Frebruary *le sigh again*.

Finally, Comissions and art trade are back (though I didn't made that much art trade). Only five slots are open for each, and I have a new prices's list. Though I published the slots and the prices, the commissions will only start after the 31 January because of my current agenda which is full. Thanks to my studies and the enormous amount of time it takes me per week.
