Earlier today, I was checking something really quickly on my dead dA account, when I noticed I got a message from just last May:
Now just some backstory... Several years ago in dA, I used to play Tekken 2 a lot. I was immensely fascinated by the story and mystery surrounding Kazuya and his relationship with the Angel and the Devil vying for control within him. I ran on a high drawing pics of the three of them, posting my measly colored pencil drawings on dA to compensate for the lack of content of the three of them interacting with one another (and mostly for my own personal enjoyment more than anything).
I was also watching a buttload of videos about Tekken on Youtube as well. One of them was a compilation of CGI clips from various Tekken games while the song Summer Nights from Grease played in the background (and fucking end me because I can not find that video on Youtube anymore REEEEEEEEE). Videos like those mainly served as more fuel to draw them interacting with each other in a more lighthearted manner.
I remember also at the time, they were announcing Tekken Tag Tournament 2 on the PS3. I was just stoked to play it and was begging to see Angel on TTT2 or bloody riot. I got what I wanted eventually, and bought a copy of the game with Angel and Kunimitsu as available DLC characters. Unfortunately, I never got the chance to play it, let alone open it despite having pre-ordered it, as my life got too busy at the time for me to be interested to buy a PS3 and my interest had already long petered out.
This post is the last testimony I have of those times. The other artworks I posted on dA about them are no more. I stored them before I went inactive, but now I can no longer seem to find them. I suppose they got deleted probably after dA made their UI overhaul of the site.
The message was an unexpected, but welcome surprise to be honest. I sent them back an appropriate reply:
Feels good man. Feels very good.
