The redflag/eagle blade is the Neo Zeon Flag fro Gundam Chars Counter Attack, and the split spear/trident is the symclo from Code Geass.  Both may make appearances as new tats someday ;)

Those would make some sweet tats!  8)

My avatar is a only 85% new since I've had it for a few weeks. Do you dudes like it? It was made in Photoshop from screenshots taken in MagicEngine.

It's definitely one of the cooler I've seen you made, Turbo D. I like how it has the lighting flashes in it, too. It's cool that you took it from the intro of Air Zonk, as well.

Thnx Kirby!  :mrgreen:

Here is my new avatar, which I've had for a few days now. I wasn't sure whether or not to fix the distortion of it, but it was left alone since the resizing gives it some sort of interesting watercolor effect. I'll try to make the next one exactly 80 x 80 pixels in order to avoid this in the future.

I was thinking of having one from Bonk's Adventure with Bonk jumping in midair, since I though it was pretty cute and appealing, but it didn't turn out as well as I though it would. The sleeping Eggy Head enemies from Bonk's Revenge was such a nice picture for me to use, I saw.

Very nice Kirby. I was actually wondering about that water colour effect.

I actually noticed your avatar outside of this thread and thought that it looked nice. You could try using a detailed big Bonk sprite from Bonk 3 for your midair pic.

Thanks, Black Tiger :). What I meant by not turning out well was that Bonk didn't look as cute as I though he would when I saw screenshots of him jumping. I did consider those animations from the other games, but they didn't look good enough to me, either. If I were to use one from Bonk 3: Bonk's Big Adventure, though, I would use the one player sprite facing right while doing so.

Here is a new originally created avatar. I've recently , and as far as I was concerned, it looked like a great game for the system (especially pertaining to the music), so  I wanted it very much. This also marks the first perfectly made avatar that I've created, since it was made to be exactly 80 x 80 pixels (and thus with no distortion done to it).

This icon's source was from a screenshot on the Turrican entry of the PC Engine Software Bible. Sunteam_Paul has allowed me to use any of the screens provided on there to create any ones I wish (I'll let him try to guess which picture this was taken from, though :wink: :mrgreen:).

No Kirby- no.
Be advised- Turrican is perhaps the WORST Turbo game there is.  It's certainly by far the shittiest platformer I own.  It's so bad that although I never give away or sell my tg/pce games- I'd actually consider sending you my copy for free- but then again- that's something you send to those you hate- and you're a good kid.  Why's it suck boiled ass?  Why doesn't it.  Mike reviewed it on his PC-Engine Hell site- you can read that for starters.

I did read Michael Helgeston's review earlier, but he doesn't really elaborate too much on why it's bad aside from the factors being so (which I totally disagree with his view on the music from hearing the first level track, I think it was, and the graphics since they look like they're in the standards of the TurboGrafx-16), how it's hard, and it does not live up to the standards of the Commodore 64 and Amiga versions. The last one I can see being a possible large negative factor for it, but even if it was every bit of horrible as you two emphasize it to be, I'm still willing to check it out, at least :P.

This went back to a old av not to mention i ran out of ideas what to use next.

Yes, that is a fine picture. I kinda wish The Shadow Chronicles didn't go with the CGI for the space scenes, or least not as much. It was a little too jarring for me going back and forth between the animation styles. Don't get me wrong, the CGI animation looked great, but it just clashed too much with the regular animation.
