Manga Update

Another manga update.  Pages 7-10 of “Contradiction” chapter 06 is added.  I have actually finished all the sketches (pay attention, rough work only) of chapter 06, but I need a long time to tone them, so please be patient =D

I am also planning to make a calendar for 2008, with a cover page and one page every two months.  The calendar will be all coloured and released at the same time (except the cover will be released first).  I have not yet decided on the size, but I guess I will make it printer-nice sized =P

Forum & Oekaki up!

Finally the forum is now officially open.  I am not sure what there is more to add to the forum, and it may be closed if it does not work out.  Any suggestions and ideas about how to make the forum better is appreciated.

Also I have added an oekaki board today.  What is oekaki?  According to wikipedia, it is the Japanese term to describe the act of drawing, meaning “doodle or scribble”. On the Internet, an Oekaki is a message board system that revolves around computer art created by an art program stored on the server. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oekaki)  This oekaki board is not only for “Contradiction”-related drawings, but you can draw anything you like that is related to my projects.  Enjoy!

Manga Update

Woot!  I am here to update my manga again!  Pages 5-7 of Contradiction chapter 6 is added. Ren Hiwatari is such a pain to draw because I am not good with adults (or old men).  Page 3 of Autumn Love is added.  This series will also run at a slower pace (just like Turbulence) compared to Contradiction. 

 Moreover, thank you very much to anime610 for continuing Turbulence.  The first few pages are up.  If you want to have those pages on your site or use it for whatever purposes (aside from reading), please give back credits to anime610.

Image/Manga Update

A new coloured image added!  Done especially for Ki and Ruya fans because many people drop mne comments saying they want to see the pair together (after seeing the Ruya & Toshino image T_T…)  So finally here it is!
Ki:  That’s not true.  I didn’t do it.
Ruya: >/////////<..

Also, pages 3-4 of “Contradiction” chapter 06 is added.  Enjoy!  My fingers are aching now for clicking the mouse too much T_T… (Yes!  I tone and colour by mouse…) so that’s all for today.

Image/Manga Update

Two more coloured images added, one is a new insert for Turbulence (featuring Yana-chan) and the other… is just something I don’t want to throw away…  Page 1 for Autumn Love added!  It is coloured!  Woot!  Woot!  But I am not intending to colour the whole manga, just the first 2 pages and the cover page =)

Contradiction on SmackJeeves

“Contradiction” is now started and running on SmackJeeves at http://contradiction.smackjeeves.com.  I have a custom-layout-ed page for it and includes character information, polls and links, and more to add if I can think of any.  However, updates now are not as fast as the main site or Tokyopop.  It is still running at Chapter 1 =_=  Pay a visit and fav it if you have a SJ account!
