I've been napping because I'm feeling a little under the weather... and man dreaming while you've got a disaster show going in the background is so weird... but now I'm barely alert and heading into work, so I though I've pull another pic from my FA stockpile.
So here you go. Simple pose, but still cute I hope.
Also the sword itself is the morphed remains of a dying dragon.
-B!

I'm telling you, B, you've been hitting it out of the park with your eyes recently. Her eyes are just SOOO presh!
And kudos on controlling your enormous boob impulses :)
One final question... A DYING dragon? Is the poor thing STILL dying, just in sword form now?
Seems like that would call for some sort of blademaster/hospice worker combo, and those are rather spare!

Actually, all anime swords are made of a styrofoam core with a thin PVC coating, and sprayed down with Uncle Johann's No-Breaky Spraykote (TM). Lightweight, and they can take a nuclear explosion and come out unscathed! Just don't expose them to vinegar...
I love the character design here, just to letcha know.

Yeah, thats the great thing about a fantasy univers, you can get away with anything. Buster swords being wielded buy schoolgirls wearing chainmail bikinis actually offering some form of protection with a projectile attack that doesnt involve actually throwing the weapon, and even if she does use her sword as a boomarang, she always catches it by the handle and it never tears his arm off.
Good point. I have family members who could carry the things, but no way would they be able to do the one handed spin. Maybe that's why Cloud's arm looks a little like Popeye's in the game graphics. Still doesn't explain his shoulder joint, but we'll burn that bridge when we get to it.
I've always wondered that. But then again nothing the Japanese do makes sense to me. For instance, I always wondered why the bad guys never just grabbed Sailor Moon around the throat while she was prancing around naked during the transformation sequences and just beat the living shit out of her.
Even so, better idea. Wait for her to finish transforming, take out a gun, shoot her in the face. No more sailor moon. They take the time to spout all kinds of catch phrases and even do their enemies the favor of shouting out the name of their attacks, so its not like the villains wouldn't have time. I mean c'mon even Skeletor wasn't that incompetant.
Well, with the whole transforming thing with Sailor Moon, mostly it's cause (I think) they never actually transformed in front of the bad guy, just out of their sight.
As to the gun, I think it's some sort of unwritten fantasy anime rule or something. If you're a bad guy with special powers, unless your powers are focused on a gun, you're not allowed to use one. If you lack said special powers, unless you're a member of the Yakuza or a crooked cop(in which case you probably get killed early by the main bad guy) then you're not allowed to use a gun. Swords though are fine but more often than not they'll be some sort of highly skilled martial artist that can destroy an entire trained army yet fall to the inexperienced hero of the story due to some 'hidden power' they never knew about.
As to the picture itself, very awesome, like her design quite a bit.

My interpretation was that the transformation inflicted something similar to the Turn Undead aura of D&D clerics or a paladin's aura of good - not destructive but enough to briefly blind or stun. I mean seriously, if not, the monsters could just snap a photo of the girls in mid trasformation with their cell phone cameras then threaten to post it on the net.
Guns? Mooks can have guns in some fantasy animes, but since they're mooks, expect them to suffer Storm Trooper syndrome. Now the main bad guys - they didn't get to be big names by being jacks of all trade. No, they specialized and worked hard to develop secret fighting techniques. If you spent a decade trying to figure out how to chop a car in half with a sword from thirty feet away, you're gonna use a sword in combat, dang it, even if the bad mooks have already used bargain basement bazookas to blow up several cars being driven by good mooks. The same applies if your weapon is a fairly ordinary pistol (see the anime Grenadier for a good guy, er, girl example of this).

It depends on what kind of "big". Swords as long as their wielder?
Perfectly valid, if a bit over the top.
Swords with a blade a foot wide?
Those are called Axes.
Swords three inches thick?
Those are called Maces.
Combine the three?
That's called an accident waiting to happen to the poor soul trying to fight with it.

Cloud was infused with mako energy and more or less controled by Sephy (poor ffed up guy) through most of FFVII so that could explain his giant sword prowess.
And now I'm picturing a profane midnight ritual whereby she renews her control over her dragon sword by sheathing it (repetedly) in her hidden scabbard. Drawggins need love too!

I do enjoy punky girls. Mostly the ones who've got just that little bit of punky, not the ones that go freakin' insane and put a metal bolt through everywhere they can pinch skin. Also a few, nice tattoos are good. Accentuate their appeal rather than painting over.
I like the eyeliner, the eyes themselves are also pretty. Not too sure about the hair, pigtails, B, pigtails. Though considering the context it makes more sense like that. I like the clothing design. She clearly has sleeves and armour on her arms, yet her chest is almost completely bare except for a hankerchief tied around her boobs. That's a pretty good knot, by the way though I'm sure that'd make a pretty tempting target in a swordfight. Release the boobies!
Something looks slightly funky with the shorts. The left leg of them looks a bit odd, but that could just be the 'edgey' cut of the clothes and the belt being lop-sided. The wrap around skirt thing is kinda neat, too. Reminds me a lot of Guild Wars.
Also, overly large swords piss me off. There's suspension of disbelief and there's ridiculous. I believe someone mentioned somewhere that the massive swords, keyswords or retarded outfits were a joke played by game designers on cosplayers. 'I bet you 50 bucks that no one is stupid enough to wear this outfit/think this is cool'. I just wish it were true. There's always freakin' sword escalation going on, too.
"Oh, this guy's got a 7 foot meat cleaver? Well THIS sword is a katana with FIVE blades! Ha! Katanas are awesome and it's got five blades that makes it five times as awesome!"
"Well this sword fires out little swords from its tip, gets bigger and has a grip more likely to injure the user than the enemy so there!"
"Well my sword would actually function as a weapon in a real-world physics environment and adheres to traditional styles of balance and designed with the express purpose of killing efficiently."
Just once, it'd be nice. Then again it goes against the whole 'point' of anime.
