Before After

I actually don't remember how this idea came to me, but I couldn't resist such an obvious joke. For those who don't know, it's a parody of the one of the most often quoted lines from the infamously poorly translated video game, Zero Wing. You can read more about the Internet phenomena it spawned here if you want.

Anyway, I'm quite proud of the cloning job I did on this one, especially since it's one of my earliest manips. Trying to match the original font was a lot harder, though, since I unfortunately can't just look at a font and instantly know what it is. Still, I think it came out pretty close. Looking at that third line now, though, it seems like it's kind of sloping down a bit instead of being straight. And I can't vouch for the accuracy of the German I used, since I just ran the phrase I wanted through a language program and used what came up.
