23/03/2023 Graphic Design Initial Ideas (Thumbnails)

A collection of drawings I made directly translating some of the words I have chosen to draw from my brainstorming and mind map for the poster design. I decided to do logos aswell as a form of studying layout, colour and some typography.

What do you think of Leon's throughout the franchise? There's OG and Remake and then there's CGI films and now i see some fans speculations how the remakes are trying to tie things up more towards later movies like vendetta, ID, DI, Damnation and all to make it more cohesive with Leon's character especially

First of all, people need to understand this:

The RE Movies have Capcom's permission to exist and to use their characters. Capcom sees that as an opportunity to hype up fans for new games, and also as a constant way of continuously upgrade and put their engines to the test.

So, are movies important? For the evolution of graphics and engines? Yes. For the story? Characters? No.

The movies are often directed by people who have no connection to the games whatsoever.

Just look at Leon... He out there as a propaganda boy and to earn capcom money-money. And to promote things

Ducati X Diavel

Seiko Astro Watch

Kawasaki Ninja H2R

 Classic B-3 Sheepskin Leather Bomber Jacket

The remakes won't "tie things up" with the movies... Because the movies are made by other people, another mentality. Another reason to be.

Imagine this: You start to make a collab with 4 people to write a book. You all have equal rights on the work because it doesn't belong to either of you, it belongs to a famous publisher. You all find out the publisher allowed the Director X to make a movie about the story...

And he does. He has the publisher's approval to do it.

You, as the book writer -, would you mind to connect the knots with the movies? Especially when the movies are also constantly changing directors with no continuation whatsoever.... Or would you just continue your own line of work?

This is what is happening to Resident Evil. It is fatherless and written anyway.

guidelines

i. this is a independent roleplay blog for black lady / wicked lady from bishoujo senshi sailor moon. 

ii. This blog is low activity because of my personal life (work/life). This blog is also mutuals only. i run a queen beryl rp side blog , @gaianoire , so all follows for her will come from here!

iii. no god-modding and/or meta-gaming! black lady is a villain so obviously she does villain things… basically gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss ™. i don’t want to step on anyone’s toes especially given black lady's nature. any questions or concerns, please message me!

iv. i tend to match my partners in terms of length but sometimes my replies may be on the longer side in which case it takes me longer to get to.

v. nsfw content like smut will not be present here! 

vi. in regards to ships, the same thing from vii. applies here. if you’d like to plot something out between characters that isn’t pre-determined in bssm (at least the black moon arc where black lady appears) such as family bonds or platonic, please message me so we can plot things out beforehand and then work our way through threads and development! 

vii. Regarding Mains/Exclusives… i do not practise exclusivity. i’m still iffy on mains, so for right now mains are reserved for friends only. i tend to get to my threads depending on the order i draft them in so oldest first then newest which is another reason why i’m unsure on the status of mains here.

viii. Regarding OCs and Multimuses, you are welcome here! I typically do not follow if I cannot easily find your about page, rules, and muses page via mobile as I tend to be on mobile more than desktop. this applies for regular muses too.

Born as the only child to Neo Queen Serenity and King Endymion, she was given the name "Usagi Small Lady Serenity" or "Chibiusa" for short. Due to her stagnated growth, Chibiusa was often bullied and ridiculed for still being a "child". This caused the people of the 30th century to believe that Chibiusa was not really the king and queen's daughter and was a "fake". She also never showed any signs of having powers like her mother which worried her parents.

To try and assuage his daughter's fears, King Endymion tells the young princess of the 30th century that she is much the same as her mother in that regard. He also tells her that 'Sailor Moon' is invincible. This falls flat as it makes Chibiusa feel that more distant from her mother and makes her believe even more that she will never be a wonderful lady like her mother and that her mother did not care about her at all.

This causes her to wander through the Crystal Palace where she finds the Door of Time and meets the solitary guardian, Sailor Pluto. The two would become good friends and Sailor Pluto would be instrumental in Chibiusa's awakening as both a Sailor Guardian and becoming free from Wiseman's control and delusions. Chibiusa falls to peer pressure from her young peers and steals her mother's Silver Crystal and shortly after this, the Black Moon Clan attacked the Earth. Chibiusa being racked with guilt at seeing her mother encased in crystal as well as the other Sailor Guardians, her father, and even Luna and Artemis being rendered immobile, she believed this to be the result of her own actions. Feeling alone, afraid, and desperate, Chibiusa uses the powers of her Luna-P ball to steal a Space-Time Key from her friend, Sailor Pluto, to seek the aid of the Sailor Guardians of the past to save her mother and the future.

Chibiusa escapes to the future where she meets the past versions of her mother and father and the inner Sailor Guardians and seeks their help. The Black Moon Clan follows the young princess to the past and tries to both abduct Chibiusa and stop the Guardians from foiling their plans. They take each of the Inner Sailor Guardians hostage except for Sailor Venus and her, Chibiusa, Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Moon travel to the future to rescue them. They are stopped by Sailor Pluto until Chibiusa is able to explain the situation and Sailor Pluto informs the trio of the misfortunes that have come to befall them. They make their way to the castle where King Endymion greets them and explains the origins of Chibiusa - that she is the sole daughter of Usagi and Mamoru and is the heir to both the legacy of Sailor Moon and kingdom of Crystal Tokyo.

While the Guardians and Mamoru are preoccupied with the Black Moon Clan, Chibiusa wanders alone - struggling with coming to terms over how her actions have affected everyone she loves and holds dear and even the lives of innocent people. Her feelings of loneliness and confusion are ripe enough for her to fall into Wiseman's hands and her beautiful dream of being of a beautiful lady and leader and having a beautiful romance like her parents is twisted into something awful and she is transformed into Black Lady, Queen of Darkness.

From this point on Black Lady is under the total control of Wiseman. She is responsible for summoning forth the true form of Wiseman and the planet of Nemesis. She helps Wiseman kill Rubeus and helps him give the Malefic Black Crystal Earrings to Saphir and Demande so they fall under his control. She puts Tuxedo Mask under her control and uses to him attack Sailor Moon and steal her Silver Crystal as well as summoning more Black Crystals to Crystal Tokyo in an attempt to destroy the Earth.

When Sailor Pluto freezes time and sacrifices herself so that the two Silver Crystals do not touch, Chibiusa is freed from Wiseman's control and Black Lady ceases to be.

In the 90s anime, Sailor Moon makes multiple attempts to restore Chibiusa to herself but ultimately fails until the final battle against Black Lady and Wiseman where both Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask as their future selves break through Wiseman's spell and free Chibiusa from his clutches.

Black Lady is mentioned again during the Dream Arc when Palla Palla puts a spell on Chibiusa and Usagi switching the growths so that Chibiusa appears older than she is and takes on a similar appearance to Black Lady, but not entirely as her appearance is much softer than the harshness of her dark form.

headcanons

for my doublemoon and triplemoon au verses, her name is yotsuyu tsukino or tsuyu tsukino for short!

chibiusa is NOT in love with her father. much like her mother, she has a dream of a falling in love with a cool guy who will come to her rescue and save her and be there to support her through numerous hardships. obviously mamoru is a very cool guy and chibiusa latches onto this idea and with no other positive male figure in her life (outside of artemis), she associates this dream with mamoru. this dream boy of her's would later change from her father to helios.

in the 90s anime, it is said the ice skating was a recreational activity in the silver millennium of the past and that princess serenity (usagi) was exceptionally well at it. this tradition continued with the silver millennium of the 30th century and just like her mother, usagi, chibiusa was very good at this activity. naturally this would apply to her time as black lady as well.

in the 90s anime, black lady is seen using luna-p to transform into a badminton racket and birdie. she is shown to be quite skilled with it and this is due to another recreational activity of the silver millennium of the future being badminton as it is a favorite past time of small lady.

Chibs has deep seated feelings of loneliness and regret that were ultimately preyed upon to turn her into Black Lady. These feelings are not something that will easily be washed away. Yes, ultimately Pluto's sacrifice (and Usagi and Mamoro in the 90s anime) helped her come to terms with the fact that she was never truly alone and that she was loved, but as Black Lady these feelings are magnified two-fold. They will not disappear so easily and she is quite content to stay as she is - in the darkness with awesome powers of darkness and as the Queen of Nemesis. since in the 90s anime chibs is good at chess, im gonna hc that she is as black lady too and in my 90s verse she can summon comically large chess pieces to beat up the sailor senshi. (also because i think it would be kinda funny if she just summoned giant chess pieces out of nowhere. 💀)

in the original anime it is said that chibiusa's favorite snack is hotcakes and then it briefly gets brought up in crystal. i can't remember if it is the same in the manga, too, but i'm just gonna have this here for myself, but also don't be surprised if she tries to tempt you to the dark side with hotcakes! (y'know that old internet meme "come to the darkness we have cookies. LOL)

ohmigod but what if!!! she had a pink moon mark? 🤔 🤔

since each of the black moon clan have specific gemstones attributed to them, i think black lady's would either be onyx or obsidian?

in my usual perusing of sailor moon merchandise, i came across a luna p stress ball. black lady totally owns one of these. i also came across luna and artemis thumb grips. black lady owns luna p ones as well as that one hot topic luna p crossbody bag, but obviously she owns the flocked variant version with the black moon clan symbol.

verses

BLACKMOON. Feeling lonely and afraid, she wanders through space-time after losing her precious time key. Wiseman finds her and preys on her feelings of loneliness - promising that which she desires most. He twists her beautiful dream into something dark and the small lady becomes black lady - queen of darkness. With her newfound powers, she takes on the Sailor Guardians and calls forth not only Death Phantom but the planet, Nemesis as her and Death Phantom seek to end the reign of the White Moon.

BLACKROSE. The princess of the 30th century returns to the future with the Sailor Guardians and learns from her father that the Silver Crystal disappeared before the Black Moon Clan attacked. She believes the events after the attack and the damage her mother sustained in power were her fault and she runs away, leaving the protection of the Crystal Palace. Wiseman finds her and distorts her memories into something tragic and after taking advantage of her weakness, he uses his powers to transform into black lady - princess of darkness. The Princess of the White Moon (Sailor Moon) almost succeeds in restoring the once young [future] princess of the 30th century with the mysterious powers of the Silver Crystal but is saved by Wiseman.

BLACKRABBIT. This is the same as BLACKMOON as Sailor Moon Crystal follows the manga - albeit with a few differences to my chagrin in the beginning.

BIRTH. The Summer 2001 and Winter 2002 Musical follows the events of the Black Moon arc in the manga. Its revision introduces the Outer Senshi.

PETITE. The Summer 2014 Musical follows the events of the Black Moon arc in the manga.

ANOTHERSTORY. Confronting the Sailor Guardians in Silver Millennium, she tells them that destiny has changed and that the one they know as "Chibiusa" will cease to exist.

ECLIPSED.  This is a verse set during the Black Moon arc of Sailor Moon however in regards to Chibiusa becoming Black Lady, she sees herself as the Black Lady we all known appearance wise. Everyone else sees Chibiusa but with longer twintails and a Black Moon clan mark on her forehead.

DOUBLEMOON. On her wedding day, Princess Serenity is not carrying one baby, but two. Once ascending the throne and another Silver Millennium graces the world, newly crowned Neo Queen Serenity gives birth to twin girls - Chibiusa and Yotsuyu. Tsuyu always feels vastly inferior to her older sister. She feels like Chibiusa always receives all the attention from their parents - attention that is already far and few between as it is. This causes Tsuyu to feel spurned, forgotten, and unloved. While her older sister travels to the 20th century to seek the aid of Sailor Moon, Tsuyu turns to the Black Moon Clan for what she desires most - love, attention, and having her beautiful dream to be a lady like her mother fulfilled. She becomes Black Lady , Queen of Darkness , and under Wiseman begins to plot the further downfall and total annihilation of her former kingdom.

INFINITY. With body snatched and silver crystal taken, Chibiusa's true self remains protected inside Mistress 9 by Hotaru Tomoe. A mysterious daimon entity from the Tau Star System has taken residence in Chibiusa's body. Sensing the darkness that once plagued Chibiusa's heart, this daimon uses it to fashion Chibiusa's appearance into that of Black Lady once more. 'Black Lady' walks the stage besides Mistress 9 to bring about the destruction of the Sailor Guardians and to make the planet Earth their own.

DREAM. Chibiusa gives herself over to Queen Nehelania , offering her her beautiful dream in exchange for Helios's freedom and the safety of the people of Tokyo. What the young guardian doesn't know is that Nehelania has no intention of honoring her promise. The young princess's dream becomes tainted - her beautiful dream of being a beautiful lady and strong leader like her mother and finding a love as wonderful as her parents wilts. Black Lady once again rises as a member of the Dead Moon Circus and is a formidable opponent for the Sailor Guardians.

DREAMREDUX. Chibiusa gives herself over to Queen Nehelania , offering her her beautiful dream in exchange for Helios's freedom and the safety of the people of Tokyo. What the young guardian doesn't know is that Nehelania has no intention of honoring her promise. The young princess's dream becomes tainted - her beautiful dream of being a beautiful lady and strong leader like her mother and finding a love as wonderful as her parents wilts. Black Lady once again rises as a member of the Dead Moon Circus and is a formidable opponent for the Sailor Guardians. Helios has continued to seek refuge in her beautiful dream in the hopes that he had can reach her through the darkness, but all Black Lady wants is to bring him into the darkness with her. SHARED WITH @.MAIDENKISSED.

DARKDREAMS. With Helios giving himself over to Nehelania to protect the king, queen, and princess of the White Moon, Chibiusa is distraught. The only thing on her mind is saving Helios - the one whom she had fallen for. Seeking out the Dead Moon Circus, she is taken prisoner by the Amazon Trio where Chibiusa strikes a bargain with Nehelania - her beautiful dream to set Helios free. Nehelania agrees (or so Chibiusa thinks) and the Princess of the 30th Century has her dream taken and tainted and Black Lady is reborn once again. However Nehelania never honors her end of the bargain with Black Lady and Helios's dreams become tainted as well as he turns into Black Pegasus. The pair become known as 'The Lady and the Pegasus' in the circus.

STARS. Upon her return to the 20th century to aid Sailor Moon, Chibiusa is greeted by the Sailor Quartet - her team of Sailor Guardians - and they travel to the Galaxy Cauldron with the Starlights, Princess Kakyuu, and Sailor Chibi-Chibi. After crossing the river Styx and being confronted by formidable Sailor Guardians controlled by Sailor Galaxia, they reach Galaxia's castle. It is here they are greeted by their allies, now under Galaxia's command. Sensing a new player from the future, Galaxia does not hesitate in trying to steal Chibiusa's Star Seed. However she senses what was once a great darkness in the tiny princess's heart and once her Pink Silver Crystal is stolen, Chibiusa is granted new powers and rises once more as Black Lady.

TRIPLEMOON. Parallel Sailor Moon verse, but instead of having two kids, Usagi had three daughters - Chibiusa, Yotsuyu, and Kousagi. Chibiusa and Tsuyu are twins and Kousagi is the youngest. While Chibiusa takes after her father, Tsuyu takes after their mother. However the bonds between sisters cannot be severed and growing up, anyone that bullied Chibiusa had to face Tsuyu and she was a force to be reckoned with. Even now with the pair heading into high school, Tsuyu does not tolerate anyone bullying her sisters. She has earned the nickname 'Black Lady' from her schoolmates because of how terrifying she can become when angered or slighted. Tsuyu and her older sister also have the same taste in men which brings a lot of friction between the two while Kousagi is left wondering why it matters who likes who more.

Before The Dawn

Gregory/OC

Three months before the Thompson family move to Scotland sixteen year old Alice Ellington is the new kid in town and no one has ever seen her out with her parents, or knows where she lives; except for Gregory. He knows her parents are dead and she’s a street kid, living like a squatter in an old house on a hill. What he doesn’t know is that she isn’t as fragile as she looks, or that she’s not human. But that’s a secret Alice intends on keeping for as long as she can.

A/N: Will contain graphic depictions of blood, gore, violence, and death. Will notify readers of any changes within the ratings of nudity, sexual themes, and strong coarse language.

Alice’s POV

A sharp, brief gale of wind blew dark–colorful curls into her glowering face, followed by a spray of dirt kicked up by the tires of the Kawasaki motorcycle careening to a stop in front of her. The driver’s headlamp blinded her momentarily before the light and engine cut off completely.

It was the man who spoke first in a rough voice, a toothy smile stretching across his rugged shadowed–face, “Hello there darlin’. Haven’t seen you in so long and you gonna greet me like this? Holding that pathetic thing in my face?”

She held the sawed–off steady in one hand, it’s barrel aimed between the eyes of the haughty newcomer. A muscle in her jaw twitched. “The bullets may not be real asshole, but they’ll still hurt like a son of a bitch. How did you find me anyway?”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk! You should know better by now, love. I can find you anywhere on this earth, remember? There’s nowhere in this realm or the next I won’t be able to track you down.”

He rose from his bike, towering over Alice by a foot and a half. His shaggy, shoulder–length wet hair fell over his face in clumps as he bent over to gleam at her – completely and utterly ignoring the shotgun barrel staring him down.

“You must be looking to get your ass whooped, huh Azriel? I told you last time before we went our separate ways that if you came after me I was going to find a way to end your sorry ass.”

“Aw, is that how you really feel? I’m hurt. Honestly. I helped create you and you don’t want anything to do with me?”

Alice snorted, “Hell no. Not behind the pearly gates of Heaven, even if you was allowed back in there, or the deepest depths of the underworld.” She shifted her stance, putting her feet shoulder–length apart, and Azriel laughed.

His eyebrows shot up, hopping quickly from the space he was standing in front of her to her left. “If you were going to shoot me, dear, you would’ve done so already.” A hop to her right, grinning like a mad hatter. “So why don’t you go ahead and get it out of your mouth? Ask me the question that’s on your mind right now.”

The barrel followed his movements with ease, her finger moving to lay over the trigger. “What question would that be? How much of a pain in my ass you’ve become? I ran from the States for a reason, you shithead. It’s been rather peaceful here without you and don’t you think for one second I’ve forgotten about what happened in California.”

Azriel scoffed and rolled his eyes, shoulders sagging as he retorted, “I didn’t think you would. But the question I was hoping for was ‘why have you been here in Scotland for two weeks and haven’t popped in to see me until now?’ You know, a guy just can’t catch a break with you.”

Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion, “You’ve been here for two weeks?”

“Uh, duh! You seem so surprised. Did you not sense I was around? You know, that’s very sloppy of you and I’m disappointed to say I did not expect you to be slipping up.”

Alice snarled in annoyance, flipping the shotgun around in her hand so that she was holding the barrel and wielding it as if it were a baseball bat. “I sensed something was wrong, but I was holding out on the hope I wouldn’t have to look at your stupid face again.”

The man chuckled, leaning in close and puckering his lips playfully, “You weren’t complaining about my stupid face when we were together so many years ago. In fact, I quite remember you used to enjoy my stupid face when it was between your legs.”

She released an enraged scream, swinging the sawed–off at Azriel, but missed as he blurred to his motorcycle. His movements were fast enough that human eyes would’ve only seen a quick glimpse of shiny leather and black. Azriel sat on the bike again, chortling with glee as she flipped forward into a roll to stop from making a complete fool of herself.

The shotgun was twice her size, just as heavy as it looked, and the awkwardness threatened to drag her to the ground as she missed her intended target. But she had caught herself and was left on her knees, clutching the sawed–off to her chest as she stared daggers up at Azriel.

“What the hell else do you want from me?”

“Oh, honey, I didn’t come to Scotland for you. I came to visit an old friend of mine, actually. You just happened to be in the neighborhood too and I finally decided to see what you was up to. Still playing human, I see.”

Alice huffed and rose to her feet just as languidly as she had been leaning against the store counter, with the elegance and grace of a queen. “I didn’t even know you had friends.”

“Says the woman who has no friends. But anyhoo, as much fun as this little reunion has been, I gotta run.”

She spun on her heel to stomp off, grunting. “As long as you don’t hang around me we’re cool.”

“Don’t walk away too fast, love, I got a great view from the back I don’t wanna miss.” Azriel waved after her as he turn the key in his motorcycle, smiling like the cat that got the canary. “I’ll be seeing you around!”

Alice burst through the door of the smoke shop and slammed it shut behind her with an irritated growl, leaning quickly against it’s cool glass as the sound of the bike engine sat there for a minute with a steady thrum.

She didn’t want to look back over her shoulder though she could see the angry glare of the motorcycle’s headlamp through the dimly lit store. Instead she focused on a nearby lava lamp, watching the purple ooze inside as it drifted up and down it’s glittery bottle.

Then, just as fast as he’d shown up, the Kawasaki sped off and took it’s looming beam of light with it.

Gregory’s POV

What.

Just.

Happened.

Gregory slunk low through the aisles in the oddly decorated shop, watching the youthful–looking woman as she raised her foot and slammed her boot against the glass door.

His floor–length trench coat grazed along the checkered tile as he crept closer, hidden behind statues of various deities and dream catchers. There were lava lamps of all colors spread throughout the little store, neon signs and posters colliding with each other on the walls.

Being in much closer proximity to her the girl appeared to be close to his age rather than the twenty–something he had assumed, although that man who was harassing her had acted as if she were much older than even that. The way he spoke to her was rather vulgar though, like they had once been something to each other.

It seemed as if they had years of history between them.

Gregory inhaled slowly as he came to a stop at the end of the shelves, crouching down to his knees. He smelled rosemary and peony.

“Hey! Who’s there?”

He startled, eyes widening as he jumped back a few feet. There was no way she heard him, as feather light as his footsteps had been and as careful as he was not to knock over anything.

And of course, his lack of heartbeat.

Then the young female appeared in front of him, brandishing the sawed–off in her hands aimed right for his face, and if looks could kill Gregory would’ve died on the spot. His hands automatically flew to protect his chest, shouting, “Put that thing down! Whatever it is I don’t want to be licking any wounds later.”

He doubted the weapon would kill him, it didn’t appear as if it held stakes, but Gregory didn’t want to find out.

“How the hell did you get in here?”

“The door was open, miss. This shop is open right?”

“Oh… right.” Alice lowered the weapon to her side slowly, while sizing him up, and offered her hand; raising a curious eyebrow. “Did you drop something on the floor or do you want some help up?”

He gaped at her for a moment, then collected himself and scoffed, “No I did not drop anything and I most certainly do not need your help.” With one swift, languid move Gregory was on his feet again standing over her by a good three feet.

She didn’t even flinch, her expression changing from curious to annoyed. “Look, dude, either pick something and pay for it or get the hell out.” Alice spun on her heel and began stomping towards the glass box, still talking as she walked away from him.

“At this particular moment I am not in a good mood, I’m wielding a shotgun, and I am seriously tired of dealing with male ego.”

Gregory sped past her, moving fast although not as fast as Azriel had been, and was blocking her path as her hand reached out for the knob of the door that lead into the protective room with the glass windows. He bared his fangs, snarling, “I’m not a customer. I have no money to give you nor would I want anything out of this business!”

She skid to a halt in her tracks before she could collide with the strange boy, but still was unfazed. Alice threw the shotgun aside as Gregory’s hands clamped onto her upper arms and with both hands she grabbed a hold on the edges of his trench coat, lifted him off the floor with ease and made to toss him aside.

He let out a startled gasp, but dug his fingernails into her skin and as she swung him he pulled him down with her. Both of them rolled across the floor until they hit a shelf, halfway across the room. Hookahs and bongs rattled, a few grinders hit the ground, but the shelf wobbled until it became still.

Alice on top, glaring daggers as her hair hung around her face. Her legs trapped his legs together and his face, he was sure, would be red had he fed earlier tonight. Gregory, on bottom, heaved an irritated breath and snarled again. His hands moved from her upper arms to wrap around her throat, “What are you woman?!”

She drew back one of her hands from his coat, fingers already curled into a fist, “None of your business!” Her knuckles made contact with his nose and in anger, he bucked his hips rolling the two of them around so he was on top.

He felt the bone in his nose had broken, but no blood poured out, and Alice gaped in surprise. Only a little drop of thick, blue–black liquid leaked from his nostrils. “I have not the energy to fight with you, lady, so can we please call a truce? We are obviously evenly matched..”

“Get your hands away from my throat and you got yourself a truce, bloodsucker.”

Gregory scowled down at Alice, reluctantly pulling away and getting back to his feet. “How do you know what I am?” His head tilted as she bent her knees, bucked her hips, and flipped onto her feet like a ninja. “You aren’t human.”

“What gave it away? The fact I picked your ass up like you weighed no more than a newborn baby? Or the fact I sensed you before you knew I was even aware of you lurking between the shelves?”

He grinned slowly, toothily, and let out a laugh. “And here I had thought my hunting skills were starting to get rusty. You felt I was here before I saw you?”

“Yeah. And I also smelled death.”

Just Ride: 2024 Kawasaki Eliminator 500 details released

Recently unveiled in the outline of 2024 Kawasaki models, full details of the new Kawasaki Eliminator 500 and Eliminator 500 SE are now being released. Set to have a strong presence in the 500cc mid-weight class, the Eliminator family name makes a return for Kawasaki with the unveiling of a machine with a unique design language of its own. Ready to make its mark in the urban style stakes, the EU A2 licence class compliant Eliminator 500 mates a liquid-cooled parallel twin-cylinder motor to Kawasaki’s famous trellis frame technology creating a great power to weight ratio plus a sleek silhouette harnessing a long and low form with horizontal lines defining the tank, seat and tail unit. Delivering an ergonomic package that joins rider to machine in a natural “all day riding comfort” position, the Eliminator can boast a low seat height of just 735mm allowing an easy reach to the ground while offering a total of three seat height options including the standard item plus two others (higher @765mm and lower @715mm) as part of Kawasaki’s genuine accessory Ergo-Fit range.

All LED lighting further increases day and night presence while an all-digital LCD meter keeps the rider informed of all essential information. Suspended from the tubular trellis chassis, the Eliminator’s parallel twin engine offers strong low-end torque, greatly benefiting low-speed control and manoeuvrability while contributing to low-stress everyday riding. And that riding experience can be enhanced with the features available on Kawasaki’s unique Rideology Smartphone app that allows riders to mate their machine to their handheld device for a new level of rider and motorcycle communication. Up front an 18inch wheel paves the way while an imposing 16 inch rear delivers a clear message about urban style and the personality of the Eliminator and its rider. And under the skin in the “go department”, the Eliminator’s engine harnesses all of Kawasaki’s expertise in a long history of parallel twins. Features such as downdraft intakes provide a short, direct path for intake air to enter the cylinders, a large 5.8 L airbox with left and right intake funnels of different heights contributing to the engine’s smooth response plus large ø32 mm throttle valves helping to flow a greater volume of air, contributing to strong performance.

The chassis design inspiration comes courtesy of the Ninja 400. Complementing the sleek styling, the steering geometry was carefully selected to achieve light, natural handling. With a 1,520 mm wheelbase, the impressive-looking chassis offers low weight while achieving its impressive design. Additionally, a diecast swingarm mounting plate bolts to the back of the engine assembly allowing the swingarm to be mounted directly to the engine, contributing to stability and light weight. In terms of those all-important looks, a long and low design with elegant proportions is created by the vertically thin fuel tank and the horizontal lines evident from the head pipe to the original tail. The design of this impressive, mid-class sized body suggests a balance of active performance and composure while the round headlight and twin-shock rear suspension add to the authentic motorcycle style. For the SE model a unique colour and graphic package is mated to a stylish headlamp cowl, rubber fork boots, a handlebar mount USB-C port and a special SE seat with a distinctive stitching pattern.

Add a range of Genuine Accessories and the 2024 Eliminator 500 and Eliminator 500 SE deliver everything an emerging breed of young, fashion conscious urban rider’s demand. Style and substance have rarely been this easy to define. So, get on the Eliminator 500 and Just Ride. The Eliminator 500 and Eliminator 500 SE will be available from January, with prices confirmed nearer the time. Read the full article

What You Should Know About the Kawasaki Ninja 650 Fairing Kit

The Kawasaki Ninja 650 is a popular sport bike known for its smooth ride, agile handling, and powerful engine. One of the most popular aftermarket upgrades for the Ninja 650 is the fairing kit, which can significantly enhance the bike's performance, style, and comfort. Here are some important things to consider if you're thinking about installing a fairing kit on your Kawasaki Ninja 650.

Benefits of a Fairing Kit

A fairing is an aerodynamic shell that covers the bike's frame and engine, reducing air resistance and drag. This results in increased speed and performance, as well as improved fuel efficiency. A fairing kit can also improve the bike's stability, handling, and cornering ability by reducing wind buffeting and turbulence. Additionally, a fairing can provide protection from wind, rain, and debris, making your ride more comfortable and enjoyable.

Types of Fairing Kits

There are several types of fairing kits available for the Kawasaki Ninja 650, including full fairing kits, half fairing kits, and quarter fairing kits. Full fairing kits cover the entire front of the bike, including the headlights, while half fairing kits cover only the upper half of the front, leaving the lower part of the engine exposed. Quarter fairing kits cover just the handlebars and instrument panel. Each type of fairing kit offers its own benefits and drawbacks, so it's important to choose the one that best suits your needs and riding style.

Materials

Fairing kits are typically made from one of three materials: ABS plastic, fiberglass, or carbon fiber. ABS plastic is the most common material and is known for its durability and affordability. Fiberglass is lightweight and provides excellent strength and rigidity. Carbon fiber is the most expensive option but is the strongest and lightest material, providing the best performance and style.

Cost

The cost of a motorcycle fairing kit varies depending on the type and material. Full fairing kits are typically the most expensive, ranging from $500 to $1,500. Half and quarter fairing kits are less expensive, with prices ranging from $200 to $500. Carbon fiber fairings are the most expensive, with prices ranging from $1,000 to $3,000. It's important to consider the cost of the fairing kit as well as any additional installation and customization costs before making a purchase.

Installation and Customization

Fairing kits can be installed by a professional mechanic or DIY with the right tools and knowledge. It's important to carefully read the instructions and follow the recommended installation process to ensure the fairing is properly secured and aligned. Additionally, fairing kits can be customized with different colors, graphics, and designs to match your personal style and preferences.

In conclusion, a fairing kit is an excellent investment for Kawasaki Ninja 650 owners looking to improve their bike's performance, style, and comfort. By considering the type, material, cost, and installation process, you can choose the fairing kit that best fits your needs and riding style. With proper installation and customization, a fairing kit can transform your Kawasaki Ninja 650 into a sleek and powerful spot bike.

Flicky (Arcade)

Developed/Published by: Sega Released: 5/1984 Completed: 02/07/2022 Completion: Finished all 48 stages. Version Played: Astro City Mini Trophies / Achievements: n/a

So! I’ve had an Astro City Mini for a while (since it was decently discounted on the ol’ Amazon Japan) and not really done much with it except dip in and out of the odd game, and so I was excited that after finishing TwinBee I’d finally get to play the first game on it in my list chronologically, Sega Ninja!

Until I checked the system and realised that I’d made a mistake in my spreadsheet and Flicky actually came out in 5/198*4* not 5/1985, placing it first, and a contemporary of games such as King’s Quest (which I, uh, also missed at the time) and Tower of Druaga. Coming, in fact, well before Mappy on the NES, which I not-particularly-memorably referred to as “The game my brain always puts in the same bucket as Flicky, wrong or rightly.”

Anyway, it turns out rightly because (at least according to Wikipedia) Flicky came from Sega’s “desire to exceed Namco's Mappy” which originally came out in arcades in 1983.

And guess what! They did!

Flicky is a simpler game than Mappy, and in my mind, all the better for it. It’s a basic collect-em-up–collect all the wee birdies and take them back to the exit–but it’s actually got a fascinating decision at the heart of it: it’s a single-screen platformer in that you can see the entire level on one screen, it wraps-around, but it scrolls meaning that the level somehow feels about three times as large as it is. You almost don’t realise it’s a single screen game! (Or maybe I'm just an idiot.)

I’d be interested to know why this decision was made–was it just to scroll like Mappy? Or was it intentionally done to avoid that annoying thing where you get killed transitioning between sides by an enemy you can’t see? Either way it’s a spark of minor genius.

It’s not all gravy though. Flicky herself has a touch too much floaty inertia, and while jumping onto platforms is nothing like the insane bullshit you have to put up with in Ice Climber, there’s a ton of head-bumping and wall-bouncing to be had making the game progressively more annoying as the levels get tighter and more complex; there’s a pretty remarkable 48 levels in this, but the last five or so are… very irritating.

Plus, artist Yoshiki Kawasaki apparently drew this on a “poorly calibrated graphics tablet” and you can kind of tell. All the art just seems sort of messy; there’s a charm to it, but in movement, you’ve got to give it to Mappy. While simpler, it’s crisper and more readable.

Flicky is still a ton of fun, though (well, for about 42 levels) with really nice score attack potential; you’re not just trying to get Flicky’s chicks back to the exit but get them back in one go, and while they fly behind Flicky, if a cat touches them they’ll scatter, requiring you collect them again, made harder by the fact that some chicks (with sunglasses, hilariously) will immediately run off. You get a bonus for doing levels as quickly as possible, too, which can be traded off against trying to knock down cats with the objects Flicky can pick up and… flick at them.

(Weirdly, Flicky does that when she jumps, which feels like something that would be better on a second button, but I think it’s intentional rather than a way to save, uh, the cost of a button–because you can’t jump with a weapon, you might have to wait for a cat to reach you, or just move unnaturally for a while not to use it, either costing your precious seconds. Cerebral!)

If I had any more complaints it’s probably just that with 42 levels Flicky is a bit too easy at first (the first ten levels are quickly a doddle) but it’s hardly the worst thing in the world. To be honest, playing this made me a bit sad that Flicky got so quickly relegated to being “that bird Sonic rescues”. Put some respect on her name!

(Which was originally “Busty” until someone pointed out that’s… not a good name. What were they thinking?)

Will I ever play it again? I’ll be quite happy to play it if I ever see it in the arcade, and if they stuck it on the Mega Drive Mini 3 or something I’d play it, it’s solid.

Final Thought: Actually speaking of the Mega Drive version the box art of the western version is absolutely seared in my mind. It’s terrifying! Protect your babies, Flicky!!! Compare it to the Japanese art for the SG-1000 version… Stop abusing that cat, Flicky!
