EXE no Himitsu Artbook Thread of Scanned Goodness

Rock Miyabi

So, since I was doing R20 scans on other forums, I was in the mood to keep doing more scanning. And since I realized there were enough images in the Himitsu/Secret Artbook that still have yet to surface on any sites within the community, I figured I'd tackle it. I know not everybody has seen this artbook yet.

These scans won't be perfect, because I'm not destroying the book. And my touchup skills are always questionable. But it's thin enough that I can bend it easily without too much shadowy darkness affecting things. I won't post full pages, but rather crops of images. But unfortunately, since they'll be smaller pics from a smaller-sized artbook, these won't be huge quality. But still scanned in 300 DPI, which will allow for some to be avatar-worthy at least.

And to Ryouko: offer still stands if you want them. I'm just a jerk who is too bored tonight to wait for a reply. Wink

I'm just going to keep it exclusive to this forum for now.

First batch:

More to follow as I get them done.

Actually, I have an extra copy of Himitsu because I was so excited when I started flipping through the first one I bought and proceeded to buy the other copy XD;

I was thinking of giving it out as a contest prize, but I couldn't think of a contest.

I have a scan too, but it's obvious to what it is XD

Haly, your zenny is in the mail. Smile

Welcome, all.

Tried upping it to 400 DPI on some of these, but not sure I like the results. Due to even more grainyness it adds to the colors. For sketches it'll be fine and all, but I think it makes the colored images worse.

Today's batch:

Wait, so there ARE EXE versions of Tango and Beat? All I heard of them from the games were some Custom Parts in BN3. But eh, they're cute. X3 Although... is that last pic suppose to be of Yai's mom? Shocked

What, they let her dad appear in the anime, but leave the mom out altogether. How cruel. Razz

They were in the Navi Cust in more than BN3, but yeah, this was the only imagery to be made of them. At least as far as I know.

And yep, those are Yai's parents as well. It was more interesting than the sketch of her on the page, so I didn't bother cropping it. Laughing

Cool stuff. I've always liked looking at concept art, so these proto sketches are cool. Though Proto Iris just screams 'moe' far more than her final version did. And that sketch of Dark is awesome. It's also interesting to see that they did indeed have Tamako in mind when designing Phakchi.
And finally, I'm quite surprised at the sketch of Yai's father, as I thought he was anime exclusive.

I do wonder what the hell's up with that up-the-skirt tease with Yai though...

Thank you! These are awesome. That very smooth Charlie in the first batch makes me especially happy.
Just what I need in the middle of some tedious essay-writing.

These also made me dig out my Japanese dictionary. :D

Hey, I recognize that Charlie, Baryl, and most of the Tesla stuff from that concept art site they had to promote EXE5 a while back.

Tadashi in a Hawaiian shirt should've made it into the games in some form or another.

The mustachioed man in the twenty-second scan reminds me of the inspector from the manga. If only I could remember his name...

This is the first time I've ever seen any art for Cain... Actually, I haven't really seen much art for anything BN6-related apart from the navis, Crosses, Lan, Megaman, Tab, Mick, Iris, and a few viruses.

This is neat stuff. Keep it up.

Hoo yeah! *throws a party*
You,sir, are awesome. Marry me?

Some serious Charlie-cuteness there. And Tesla. And Madoi!
... Oh, mind me not, I sometimes can't control the random fangirl-outbursts.

I never thought of Madoi being a painter. Plus, the art on Baryl looks very cool. Though, I wish I saw more of Count Hakushaku.
