I thought it was about high time I shared these:
http://kitsunebella.livejournal.com/pics/catalog/492Over the past months I've been going through both versions of the anime collecting screen captures for various projects. As I was going through the videos it donned on me that some of the images, backgrounds, establishing shots, etc. the way the animation camera would move along the scene I thought that if I grabbed enough images from a particular sequence, I could put them together in Photoshop to create a single image, murals basically. One of them from the 2012 Remake I've used as the cover for my page on Facebook.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10200691526202866&l=42e8f7346aI would use the colors in this one to try to do both an image and video color correction/restoration on the original OVA. ;-)
This album that I put together would be the start of of an ongoing project since I have a few others from the 2012 remake that I need to finish and others I have yet to work on. I looked at these from a pure, art frame of mind. It didn't hurt either that I was able to flag down the 2002 DVD reissue of the original OVAs so it was nice to have that looking god-awesome.
I also tried to make some descriptions about some of them, so please check them out. A couple became experiments in color correction and image restoration and those I have tagged for my graphics portfolio.
Please check them out and feedback is always most appreciated. Also feel free to share if you wish....it helps promote not only this work but my others that I'll share. There's just only one caveat.... because some of these took a long time to do, (most of them did, who am I kidding...*chuckle*) especially those I did tweaks in the restorations
AND because I'm going to use some of these for both my portfolio and for one of my other blog sites that's still in the works, I humbly, respectfully request that you let me know or ask for permission to share or repost, as well a link back to me would also be wonderful! :D
Some of these gave me no quarter but it would be those that ended up being my personal favorites. I'll let you guess which ones those happen to be. :)
Enjoy!
