ETA: Ha! So that's what the invert function is in photoshop. Look here to see inverted Tenpou and inverted Kenren. And Kanzeon being uhh well Kanzeon, from the back pages of vol 2.

FWIW the Kenren frontispiece is the same in both editions of Gaiden 1, just has thinner lines in the new version. The colour pages that start the book have more colour in them- Nataku appears against a blood red background- and a tendency to the browns she's shown so much love of in her art books. Goujun now looks like yellow ivory, Kanzeon is yellow-brown rather than peach. I'm not quite the fan of it myself.

Have my new Gaidens courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] shiny_monkey. If I may ask the Chinese here present about this picture-- I looked at it and said Zhuge Liang and then said no wait didn't he have a horsetail fan? So who's Tenpou being in this pic?

Ah! Thanks for doing that! I really wanted to see the detail of the outfits, now I have a cosplay idea for Gaiden XD (alghouth I bet people would confuse me with Dynasty Warriors XD).

How fun and interesting to see how much research Minekura does.

Do you mind if I added you to my flist? You can add me too XD.

Thanks back on all counts.

I wonder why it never occurred to me to try that trick in photoshop. The details of the Kenren one have been bugging me for years.

But y'know, if you have the proper loose Tenpou hair wave and possibly glasses, no-one would think Dynasty Warriors ever. ^_^

You have English-language Photoshop, yes? Have fun with just trying everything. That's how I learned to use it in Japanese ^^; I don't know what the kanji say, but I know that certain strings of kanji mean to do certain strings, is how I keep my job -_-;;

I know what they say. I just can't see why you would, like, remove all detail from a pic so it becomes a hadnful of grainy dots on a screen.

Mmm... because, as you say, it is arteestic?
