TMNT in BR comic Captain Ninja

[wilddiverse]

I've managed to use google translate on that site to register, log in, and find out how to contact the seller. That's the big step. It was always easy goings after that. (Those I asked always accepted Paypal.)

That's not the issue the turtles appear in though.

[wilddiverse]

Sure it is. Just checked the scan with the pages missing.

My bad, I thought the image in the first post was the cover of the issue.

cool comic. i loved the art. thanks for sharing

[wilddiverse]

This took entirely too long to scrounge up, but mentioned it to the right Brazilian tonight and was directed to where it could be found. No more missing pages.

Krang, Mirage Shredder, and... Chris Bradford? Lol, what a combination. Cool stuff, though! Thanks for sharing.

Ooh! I took the images you found, upscaled the to 2000x3000, straightened them and photoshopped them Now all we need is a translator

nice edits... I know Cryomancer's group was interested in doing scanlations of some of this material so hopefully he will check in soon.

[Cryomancer]

Thanks for the links dudes, I will look into these and see what we've got to work with. Sadly, both of my pt-BR guys have stopped working with me, so I'll have to find someone else for this most likely. So hopefully eventually, but don't expect anything too soon.

Enscripture, your edits look good, but I don't really get why you felt the need to upscale it myself. Not my preferred way of doing things, anyway. If you have a version at the original scanned resolution with the cleanup that would be nice, but I suppose you upscaled before the cleanup work?

Unfortunately, yeah.

[Cryomancer]

Ah, damn. Did you just do straightening and contrast stuff or did you actually retouch everything manually?

[grungethemovie]

hey, did you guys know there are brazilians in the drome that speak american fairly well?
capitao ninja was a parody feature in a gaming magazine, i don't remember in which, i do remember though there was something like it in the us in some gamerspro (or whatever) magazine (please correct me if i'm wrong) so, not licensed, but parody of games, that's why he's mentioning mortal kombat characters and the gaming references

Wanna become a translator? Throw me a PM if you are actually interested.

I need to dig around, but I keep feeling like maybe one of my former guys did actually do a first draft translation for this. Guess I'll go hunting for files tonight and figure it out.

edit: Hmm, maybe not, couldn't find anything. Oh well, I wouldn't want to use their work without their recent consent anyway. grungethemovie, you are totally hired.

I resized it first, then straightened them, then went thought and did each page separately to remove all the creases and fixed parts and deleted the corners so it'd be pure black like the way the original probably looked.

[grungethemovie]

actually, i don't wanna become a translator (don't have much time available)
but i can help with this

[Cryomancer]

That was quick, thanks. I'll probably bug you for a few line clarifications and whatnot once I start typesetting. Expect a PM or two.

I'm currently having a bitch of a time getting a proper set of images extracted from the PDF though. My PDF viewer seems to think it's a certain resolution, but all the converters I'm throwing at it either **** up the image or output something lower resolution. Dunno what the hell is going on there. Once I get this figured out I'll try doing my own cleanup job and see how it looks compared to Enscripture's work.

Anyway gimme a day or two and hopefully we'll have a release for everyone to enjoy.

[grungethemovie]

cool!
i love that you guys did the turtles manga, so i'm glad if i can retribute a bit
