# hello b3ta
I am trying to build up some form of digital arty portfolio to prove my worth to the world, or something, and so I have started colouring in Akira. This is the first page of some that I shall be doing.

# the only exceptions to the rule for me so far are TV series.
The Office and (surprisingly) Life on Mars..

though the huge majority of imported concepts are generally reamed of artistic merit in the process

# Colouring is good, (and this is) but I think from experience
most potentials (employers) want to see drawing ability demonstrated along side it.

# I've seen a few, comic publishing type peoples,
who will take unsolicited examples of work for colourists.. they want like 5 pages of sequential imagery, so that's what I'm up to currently.

# Opinion: Anime is shit.
No, I haven't seen all Anime. Yes, I'm still going to call it all shit.

# I'm not saying you're wrong...
But for me it's the following
Best Series: Escaflwone
Best OVA: Macross Plus
Best Movie: Princess Mononoke (cliché I know...)
Best Showcase of clichés: Guyver

# it was released by epic as a 39 release serial in colour
but that is no longer available.. what is available is the 6 book dark house b&w version.. unless you are being humourous and refering to the film.. and this is going completely over my head :)

# DOOMSDAY!?
Okay, this didn't deserve it's own thread, so ill drop it here...

I was looking around the internet, and I found out that on Friday, at half past 11 (GMT) The UNIX time will be 1234567890. With this colliding with friday 13th, the world will end. Apparently.

# ^This^ can't be true
or Deckionplexis would have been all over it like a rash ;D
(I helped save b3ta! The magic of chutney Shakes it like an Instagram filter!, Mon 9 Feb 2009, 22:34, archived)
# Lol
But it will be 1234567890 coz i ran a little perl script to find out, and it worked o.0

If you are running UNIX, try entering this..
perl -e 'print scalar localtime(1234567890),"\n";'
