Added a revised version of
Reimu to create.swf. There are also some new objects, and a motorcycle helmet as a hat. There’s no real plot going on in the image previews as of now, so I guess it’s just random things happening. Anyway, speaking of Reimu, I have no idea where I got the dark blue hair from (for the original create.swf Reimu, as well as… almost every other time I have drawn Windows Reimu) when it’s very clearly brown or black in the official images. I guess when I first started, I must have seen some fanart or something where her hair was tinted blue and went from there.
First?
*notices Reimu* Did you get her design off UFO?
Pingy is first?~
Reimu! What have you done with your hair?!
@Mariku: Yep. I guess it might be more accurate if the preset character name were “Reimu (UFO)” instead of “Reimu (2)” but oh well.
She’s not a ZOMBIE ANYMORE!
woaaaaah man
…and yet she still won’t get any donations.
Little does Haku-Keine know, the mask she is wearing isnt a motorcycle mask, but rather a welding mask to protect against Reimu’s fire boomies 8D.
That is the only weakness for this poor miko D8.
Awesome work as always, KirbyM.
I have a couple of suggestions for who you could add next to create.swf:
Mima based on her appearance on the cover of Akyu’s Untouched Score vol.4
Isama Asama from Uwabami Breakers
Sorry if this coding comes off weird. I wasn’t sure what to use. Also, ninth?
I really like the revised Reimu’s hair.
NoWaiThatsImpossible:O: I actually did think it was some kind of welding mask at first. xD
(Although it is 5:07 AM here and I haven’t slept yet…)
Keine should give that helmet to Rumia. Poor Rumia just runs into things a lot…
A welding mask would be funny to put in create.swf though.
Remilia and Sakuya revised next, pwease :3 and sukusuku hakutaku as an object!
10 comments in, and nobody has made a Keine-Rider joke yet? For shame, for shame.
@Arlekin: I’m with you! I wanna Remi and Sakuya next too, along with some Vampire bats for Remilia
Considering how dark blue was commonly used to represent black in the days of 4-color comics, it’s kind of become ingrained in our minds as a reasonable representation, I guess, so no harm done.
Oh my god I love this new design.
I am in love with it.
I wonder if you should actually revise Marisa, or just move on to Sakuya – after all, Marisa has at least three or four different outfits in create.swf, so I don’t know if it’s really necessary…
Anyway, big improvement from the old design. Really happy with this new one.
Masked Rider Kamen Keine!
xD
Heh that reminds me Ex-Keine actually wears a Football helmet in Super Marisa World.
I dunno, it just looks kinda odd …
I’ll probably be reusing old-Reimu’s hair for my comics … um … when I … resume making comics again …
…Am I the only one who thought “Her horns… ouch.”?
If Keine had a Green Bay football helmet on she can cosplay as Commander “Keine”

i have just noticed that there are more Marisas than there is Reimus
@thegame: One, screw you. Damn your name.
Two, it’s because Reimu’s outfit has been mostly solid for a while (ie, mostly the same thing) save for the place where her sleeves are separated from her shoulders, her hair length, or the color of the tie she’s wearing. Sometimes hair color as well. PC98 Reimu… ehh, ZUN bribed her to wear the Windows outfit she wears today.
@Walfas: I’d really like to see a Remastered Marisa and Sakuya. We have Meiling which makes me happy~ >w< And if you’re going to make more obscure characters (like Meimu), pleeeease include Mitori~
Well, I’m playing Scarlet Weather Rhapsody RIGHT NOW at the moment, and in this, and IaMP of course, Reimu have dark blue hair and the same hairstyle, so I think that’s where you got it.
Motorcycle Helmet! YAAA!
@shrimptriscuit: Actually her name is pronounced more like “kay-neh”. But I lol’d.
A gun in the objects menu? Why not put a shotgun in it?
*snicker*
Yay! Updates!
(I have nothing even remotely useful to add… so yeah)
@Fubu72: Damn, you’re right o.O!
I don’t know, somehow I don’t feel comfortable with the color change. For me, dark blue has a good effect in Reimu… But, it could be that I’m too used to the old Reimu version -.-“
@TyrannoRexaur: If you want a Reimu [Revised] with dark blue hair, here’s the DNA
3.29:Reimu Hakurei:44.5:112:112:113:111:2:0:0:0:0:0:283960
Also, this.
Doesn’t work — the hair-bangle-thingies hanging from the size are fixed-color. (Why are they not part of the hair??)
@MarisaMuffin: It’s part of the “head2” layer, and I guess Thefre didn’t anticipate errors in the DNA code of hairstyles that contain a “head2” layer (apparently neither did anyone else, because it took this long for it to be discovered). If you change the hair colors of characters like Meiling (both versions) or this version of Reimu and take the DNA code, part of the hair will be colored incorrectly until you manually color it. It works fine if you colorize manually, though. I guess I can fix it for the next update by putting the whole thing in the regular “head” layer.
Well, my computer is stupid, so everything is darker than it SHOULD be, so I couldn’t see any difference in the hair colors. Whatever, looks like I helped discover an error.
Wearing that helmet that either thrusts the base of her horns into her skull or bends them inside it at the point of almost breaking them can’t be healthy! Seriously!
And it will hurt tomorrow (today?), when she goes back to normal after the full moon is over… how is it full moon in the middle of the day?
Kirby, you’re breaking more laws of the universe in this post than what I can bear.
↑or bends them inside the helm*
@Fubu72: Uhh… I don’t know. These things aren’t really supposed to make much sense. I guess Keine’s horns just disappeared temporarily for whatever reason. No Keines were harmed in the creation of that preview image.
@KirbyM: Or maybe the horns TURNED INTO THE HELMET!!! Ohmygawd, somebody run! Tell Suika and Yuugi that they’ll both be wearing helmets! …Suika’s helmet will be one of those drinky-hats filled with sake, and Yuugi will have…A half helmet?
I know I’m leaving out a ton of characters, but those are the only
hornycharacters with horns that I can think of right now…And I’m not too knowledgeable about PC-98 chars. Can you think of any Kirb?Yeah, manually setting it worked. Hooray for the program’s right hand not knowing what its left hand is doing …
@Tesmy: The only
hornyhorned PC-98 character I can think of is Konngara.Hooray for Revised Reimu!
The new Reimu looks much better, but… it’s going to be tough to get used to it after seeing traditional Walfas Reimu so many times. :d
