Ibara Flyer/Poster Scans

Bullet_Storm · Post by **Bullet_Storm** » Sun Jul 24, 2005 8:07 am

Are there any Ibara flyer or Poster scans floating around the net? Just curious.

I've got a scan of the flyer around here somewhere. There was a really good picture of the poster as well at esprade.infoseek.jp (I think is the URL).

I assume you're talking about this site, but I can't find the image anywhere:

I would love to see nice hi res scans of the Ibara poster and flyer as well.

That first poster is excellent, I really like the whole evil master thing going on.

Yeah, and they're going for a pretty penny as well. Yahoo Auctions JPN have had a few sold for over 10,000Y.

Are Gradius V posters still available anywhere? Haven't found any on Ebay.

You mean the one that they gave to the top eight participants in the high score competitions?

Maybe...it had the Gradius V logo on the front, and screenshots and a release date below that.

And Cave...please put up a few friggin' videos of Ibara already!

Seriously, there's only like 1 or 2 on the internet-NONE of which I might add are on the official Ibara website.

Ah, that one, the advertising poster. Nope, haven't seen any around. If you're patient, one should surely pop up.

DAMN. It's certainly not THAT nice.

I guess there's a lot of people who like the look of six evil ladies in kinky bondage gear

Is it just me or does the Ibara poster look quite similar to Boris Vallejo's work.

It's really nice artwork, but I prefer Joker Jun's style, meself.

Tomoyuki Kotani has a habit of taking established artist's styles and converting them into awesome looking artwork. If you haven't already seen it, check out his homepage. You might see a few more familiar styles on there.

Jun's stuff is really nice, but his characters look like kids, very young and round-faced. Kotani's characters are more dynamic, at least in my opinion.

Cave generally doesn't do this.

Do they need videos to get Japanese people to go out to the Arcade and watch/play themselves?

There is a website with a huge avi of someone credit feeding through the entire game. I have it..and the game looks fab. One thing I am glad they brought to this game is how before a boss fight, it shows the boss and gives their name and I think the ship name ala progear. I think that is awesome.

Thanks for the pics Ord!

Just watched all the stage replays; man I sure hope Ibara get's a home port!!

"Blast off and strike the evil Lingerie Empire!!"

Is there any way to tilt these videos? I didn't mind watching them horizontally, but I'd like to find some way, if possible, of filpping them vertical on Windows Media Player.

Download Virtual Dub and give it a whirl.

I did, and it won't even recognize that any of the Ibara video's are even there!

Oh well, thanks anyway!

That's because they're encoded in WMV (Windows Media) which Phaeron of VDub had to remove support of because of some random copyright stuff. If you use a video conversion tool like ConvertMovie, then you can realign the orientation.

Thanks Icarus, I'll definately have to give that program a whirl!
