POKET PARTY (book) UPDATEI hope you had a wonderful Christmas and new year~ Here is an update for pre-order-ers !! Poket party is ready to be shipped.
I will be sending them in batches (around 45 to 50 at a time). I'll keep this page updated as to which orders I have sent and not so, etc.
My trips to the post office for those batches respectively will be on the 11th, 14th, 17th and 20th. It's safer to not post all at once and this will give me enough time to rest in between since I'll have to pack everything / fill in forms :3c
As soon as I pack your order for the batch, I'll contact you checking your address again! I will be keeping hold of your copy no matter what until I get your OK to post it. It's better to be safe than sorry and it has been a period of time

The average it takes to arrive from around the world is a week or two! Though this may take longer or shorter, post has a mind of it's own \o/ I really hope you do enjoy the book!
I'm happy if you are interested i

Anime Angel Artbook open for pre-order!Hiya~ Great news~ an art book i'm participating in called Anime Angels is officially open for kickstarter.
Here's an actual image of the cover:

The rewards include postcards, the actual art book (hard OR soft cover), posters etc. depending on how much you pledge. The way i understand it is this is pretty much a pre-order, except you can get more stuff in the package if you pay more.

The arts in this book is really good quality (there's a list of artists in the page) AND it's pretty exciting for me since it's the first i'll be in an official book, like, not self-published. >____

Artist ConfessionsI was talking with a friend recently and it made me think about things. Maybe this isn't the place for a post like this but DA is really the only online site I use so I have no other output.
I will start off by saying that DA is a really great site. I've had so many wonderful experiences on this site and met many people that I'm so thankful for knowing. The support I've received has been amazing, and when I joined, I never thought in a million years that I'd have the amount of followers I do or that people would like my art to the extent they do. It's remarkable and gives me a wonderful feeling.
Unfortunately, I've also noticed some alarming trends in recent years. I'm not sure if it's just me but I feel like the internet is becoming a place of increased 'meanness'. It's not necessarily that people are becoming meaner; it's more that the internet makes it easy for people to anonymously post hurtful things towards artists/people they dislike for whatever reason (it removes our inhibitio

SHO-YOU: The Art of Magical ArtistsSho-You will be an e-artbook released in DECEMBER 2012 featuring stunning artwork from the best manga and anime artists within the online community. The e-artbook is completely free for anyone to read and will feature artist depictions of themselves as magical girls, in a whimsical adaptation of the discovery of their creative souls, to raise awareness for a non-profit charity called Artists for Charity. AFC supports and teaches artisan skills to orphans suffering with HIV in Ethiopia. In the same way that the children save themselves with art, the e-artbook will demonstrate how art gives an artist's creative soul the power to touch and give joy to others.
The artist who produces the most impressive work will be selected to have his or her work featured on the cover of Sho-You, and will receive free commissions, features, and a print of his or her submission. Everyone who submits art work to Sho-You will recieve online features on deviantart, tumblr, facebook and the Sho-You homepage h

A bit of a ramble from me to youHello everyone! Long time no see.
I'm going to take this time to reflect on some things.
I was talking to Moorina and she inspired me to write this in detail and share with you all ^^
I've been doing doujin work and publishing in Japan for 4 years now... looking back, there has been a ton of sacrifices and bad decisions to be made. My life in general was kinda weird.
This is quite personal, but I though I'd share my life/experience with you guys.
My family was never well off. A lot of our friends don't know of our situation, of course. Our mother was gambling every single day and our father was never home. Mom would take all day looking around the house for hidden cash (stashed from my dad) while dad goes out to play pool with his friends. Our family borrows money from relatives and that's how we get by. If you go back to my journal entries from 2004, those were the days where we had to go to the internet cafe just to use the net because we couldn't afford to pay for anything per month
