The creation of the mecha girl in my banner was accidental in nature. It came from this post at dannychoo.com about a bust of an anime girl. A bust is a sculpture of a person’s head, shoulder and chest. So FatB, a fellow member suggested why not give her Fauna ‘s lower half and a pair of Gundam arms.
Inspired by FatB’s comment, I did some cut and paste in Paint (didn’t have Photoshop at that time) and came out with this.
kintaro, another fellow member saw it and did a sketch. Danny suggested I use it as my mascot for my site but back then I didn’t have a blog so didn’t put it to use. Kintaro has also agreed to let me keep her.
The mascot was part of the reason I started a blog since I did not want the picture to be wasted. ^^;
Update:
New improved face lifted version of the mascot and finally a name for her!!
---------------------------------------
well since u have photoshop n all now, try drawing a more streamlined ver. of ur mascot? give it a name too! =D
Yes, Give her a name!
And I actually prefer her the way she is now.
A name, a name!
Or have a competition to see who can come up with the best name for your mascot.
awwww how funny that I saw your post only after I wrote U an e-mail, lol maybe I should write again

When I first started visiting your blog, I didn’t catch the joke behind your header. ^^;
Only after a few days did I realize and go, “OH HEY! ISN’T THIS-” XD
I’m slow. orz
i don’t.
my fav actress is Yuko Takeuchi.
XD
so that is how you come up your mascot, interesting.
agree with others, you should give her a name.
Mizunaga,
what’s the joke? ^^;
ed,
i like the name yuko too.
lsio,
maybe i’ll name her after my girlfriend. wait, i don’t have one. orz
Ah.. Maybe joke was the wrong word to use ^^;
Symbolism is more like it. Yeah.
Eh, what about your candygirl, she hasn’t a name either? Shame on you!
*Runs away*
Just kidding.
Oh and about your nameless mascot, I guess I never noticed her Gundam-style “elbow pads”. I just found strange she was roaming around without any skirt or pants. ^^;
*Runs away again*
D_Blade,
lol. i have another surprise (no not candygirl related) but not ready to reveal yet. ^^;
Wow… I did not know…. now I do…. lol
