(Well, it got your attention didn`t it?)
So, what do you think of this disk, I hope you appreciate all the bloody
hard work that went into it...(but that`s pretty damn doubtful)
This Akira Picture Disk 2 has been over a year in production. (Check the
date on the Kanedap pic - one of the first pictures drawn for this disk)
Feel free to nick the graphics, (I can`t really stop you can I?), but
pleeeeease remember to credit me for the work. Don`t be a sad bastard and
pretend it`s all your own work. Same goes for the music. If you rip both
tunes (The Shadow of the Beast one, and the SAE Hard Rockin` one) read
the sample names....you`ll notice I`ve left all the credits there....well,
except for the SOTB2 ones...there wasn`t any to begin with. People work
really hard to do wonders on their productions, so don`t be the lowest of
the low and claim they`re all yours. (sad, very sad)
If you have anything to say about this disk,PLEASE, don`t hesitate, send
me your opinion, or if you want to send me loads of AKIRA merchandise,
then do so. (but no letter bombs please (just for a change))
Here`s a quick explanation of the pictures on this disk:-
26Light - Hires,16 cols. Displays Number 26/Takashi before he gets hit
by Tetsuo`s motorcycle. Completely hand drawn,and copied from
the comic books.
Kanedap - Hires,16 cols. Er..has Kaneda sat astride his bike. Completely
hand drawn from a stand alone artwork from the comic books.
It`s called `Kanedap' because it`s a picture of Kaneda and it`s
been packed. Hence the `p` bit..Er....shit excuse really.
Vengeance - Hires,16 cols. Copied from the front cover of the issue 8
comic book. Completely hand drawn. Entitled `Weapon Of
Vengeance' because that was the name of issue 8.
Kaneda&Sakaki - Hires,16 cols. B+W scan then fully recoloured. Shows
Kaneda giving Sakaki a right good kickin'. Ha! Serves
her right! Scanned from the back cover of Akira Collection
Five.
Kaneda3 - Hires,16 cols. Completely hand drawn. Shows Kaneda blastin'
Tetsuo...right towards us...aaaargh! from the end sequence of
the movie. Copied from a badge (yes,a badge)
Colonel - Hires,16 cols. Well, it`s the er, colonel...that`s it.
B+W scan then fully recoloured as in the original picture in
issue 15 / end part of Collection 5.
Tetsuo2 - Hires & Overscan, 8 cols. Completely hand drawn. Shows Tetsuo
after just getting hit by Kaneda (see Kaneda3) Copied from
an exclusive print/poster.
TetsuoDream - Hires,16 cols. B+W scan then fully recoloured. Here, we
are about to enter one of Tetsuo`s dream sequences.
Where he gets to see his parents....aaaaaaww! Taken from
issue 23 / Middle collection 8. b+W image scanned from back
of Collection 8.
Powerpic - Hires,16 cols. Completely hand drawn. Shows the last few
sequences of the film / book where Tetsuo`s energy is gradually
getting too much for him and starts his mutation. Gross eh?
A very old picture, taken from about issue 31 of the comic
book.
KneelingAkira - Hires,16 cols. B+W scan then fully recoloured. Well,
there`s not much more to say.It`s just Akira that`s
kneeling down looking pitiful. This is my favourite
picture on the disk. I like the colouring & anti-aliasing
(sort of...look carefully...good eh?) Copied from issue
15 of the comic book / end of Collection 5.
Mutate - Hires,16 cols. Completely hand drawn. Copied from an ORIGINAL
AKIRA ANIMATION CEL. (not jealous are you?) Shows Tetsuo's
totally uncontrollable energy mutating him. AND he`s getting
`sucked' into Akira`s gathered light. Poor sod. Look at those
puppy-dog eyes...you almost feel sorry for him don`t you?
And that`s it! All done! There are other hidden messages dotted around
the disk. Why not look for `em?
As I said, if you want to contact me for any reason whatsoever (maybe to
discuss the soon imminent arrival of Akira himself to take all his followers
with him to a better place......(mad me, mad...completely barking) )
DO NOT HESITATE TO WRITE!!! I WANT YOU TO!! DO IT NOW!! WRITE TO:-
ROBERT J. IVESON,

In fact, if you want an AKIRA disk 3 as good as this one, you`d better ask
for it.....how would I know otherwise? Why not send your Akira pics to me?
(although it`s not essential you send any disk at all, I`ll be happy to
hear from any of you!)
Ok, that`s all......I`ll say goodbye....I hope you`ve enjoyed it,
ROB.
