Nightmare versions that I created for my rewrite of Megaman X6. There, Gate's original designs were altered due to the virus spread throughout their bodies. Making them the worst version of themselves. I still need to finalize the rest of the designs.

Wolfang was based on a Varcolac

Turtloid was based more on the Jinman

and Sheldon was based on a Chen, from Chinese Mythology

IRREGULARS (2021-?) by matsumoto naoki

[blackswaneuroparedux]

To be confronted with a blank page is not very nice. But Hemingway, a great American writer, taught me the finest trick when you are doing a long book, which is, he simply said in his own words, “When you are going good, stop writing.” And that means that if everything’s going well and you know exactly where the end of the chapter’s going to go and you know just what the people are going to do, you don’t go on writing and writing until you come to the end of it, because when you do, then you say, well, where am I going to go next? And you get up and you walk away and you don’t want to come back because you don’t know where you want to go. But if you stop when you are going good, as Hemingway said…then you know what you are going to say next. You make yourself stop, put your pencil down and everything, and you walk away. And you can’t wait to get back because you know what you want to say next and that’s lovely and you have to try and do that. Every time, every day all the way through the year. If you stop when you are stuck, then you are in trouble!”

- Roald Dahl

No one can uncover the circumstances behind why this picture of Roald Dahl and Ernest Hemingway was taken, other than it was in London during the Second World War. Hemingway found himself in Europe from June-December 1944 in his capacity as a war journalist.

Roald Dahl was commissioned into the Royal Air Force and was a frontline fighter pilot showing tremendous courage and bravery and who eventually rose to the rank of wing commander. His flying days came to a premature end after a crash landing that nearly cost him his life. Between 1939-1941 Dahl was the assistant air attache in Washington DC and moved around in those diplomatic and political circles hoping to get some inside information and intelligence on America’s intentions and plans with regarding the war in Europe. Bored by his work he fell into the murky world of intelligence and became part of a Brirish spy ring called ‘The Irregulars’ which included the future James Bond author Ian Fleming. His spy work chiefly consisted of mobilising American opinion. This was at a time when Britain stood alone against the expected Nazi invasion and Britain was hoping to the USA would enter the conflict and thus tilt the balance.

When this photo was taken Dahl was a mere 28 years old and Hemingway was 45 years old. The picture doesn’t really do justice to how tall both men were with Hemingway being 6 feet tall but towered over by Dahl’s 6’6” wiry frame. Clearly Hemingway was already a celebrated author with The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, and For Whom the Bell Tolls already published. Dahl, by contrast, hadn’t written anything significant yet - like his friend and colleague Ian Fleming - other than his children’s book, The Gremlins, in 1943.

It’s speculative to imagine that Dahl, the inventive intelligence officer and aspiring author, somehow contrived a meeting with the old lion, hoping to get some writing tips.

I dedicate this chapter and this story to my Uncle Fausto. He never read Sherlock Holmes, but did like some laughter.

Found Family Tournament Round 1 Part 18 Group 87

Propaganda and further pictures under the cut

Doom Patrol: Crazy Jane, Robotman, Elasti-Girl, Cyborg, Negative Man, Chief

The Irregulars: Bea, Spike, Billy, Leopold, Jessie

Submissions are still open!

Doom Patrol:

literally every conflict is resolved by some personal growth, often through each other’s help, and many times there are minor plots about one of the team members learning to rely on another teammate they otherwise had friction with. academic writing DONE, these people literally go through the craziest plots, crazy evangelical sentient cockroaches, interdimensional and omnipotent alan tudyk, sex ghosts, and more often than not violence isn’t the solution to their problems (even if some of the protagonists wish it were oops).

The Irregulars:

Sorry, I got no propaganda for them yet :(

Irish Civil War | What Really Happened at Ballyseedy?

You can still find bullet-marked walls in Ballymullen Barracks, Tralee. There, young Kerrymen faced squads after “interrogation” carried out by officers beating them with a hammer. Worse than these “authorised killings” were the atrocities carried out “unofficially”. Of these, one-act will always stand out in infamy the blowing up of nine prisoners at Ballyseedy Cross on the Tralee-Castleisland…

Blue Lock

Art: 9/10 Story: 8/10 Characters: 9/10

Genres: Sports, Thriller.

With a recent anime adaptation, Blue Lock’s popularity has been on the rise. And for good reason, Blue Lock is unique. A sports manga, Blue Lock turns the genre on it’s head with the deviation from the teamwork theme of most sport mangas, giving us characters who are in direct competition with each other. With an ensemble of memorable characters, Blue Locks shows us what happens when you put a lot of competitive soccer players all desperate to score a goal, into an arena and tell them only one can make it out.

I personally really loved Blue Lock because of the characters (specifically rin and sae), but there’s something in it for everyone. The plot is pretty basic but the dialogue is enjoyable. Soccer fans might find it as unrealistic as most sports manga, and the emphasis on competition instead of team work might be hard to get used to but once you do get used to it, Blue Lock is a plethora of little suprises. The occassional references to famous soccer players and teams, with various other little touches show the mangakas obvious love for the game.

All in all, It comes highly recommended and is an easy read. Currently, a little over 200 (short) chapters, it’s a great summer read if you have the time to spend.
