Description This, I'm proud and pleased to say, is the drawing that I've spent the most time on in a very long time. Done with two ballpoint pens and a sharpie on a sheet out of Tony's notebook at his grandma and uncle's thanksgiving party. Thanks! heheh.

I really like looking at this and thinking of how the manga itself could look, when I have the time I want to be able to pour into it. I'd like to experiment w/adding 'tone' and the like to this image and seeing where it takes it...

my goodness you can tell a lot of work went into this! rose's face and giant floppy hat are so charming, and kayoubineko even made an appearance which is always a plus ^^

it was so so so so so so fun and relaxing. I wish I could draw a whole manga like this. Man. I miss you, Sreya-aniki! You're always so inspiring for comic ideas and all.

Are these your characters?

Thank you, Kit!
They are indeed my characters, Rose, Yuuri, Tuesday Cat and this fire fox fellow. Whose name is, as of yet, Fire Fox, but... sorta hard to use, considering the browser of the same name.

Ho ho that was worth to spend time on! Doesn't it feel nice, being able to work a bit on yor Current Main Project?Β 

Β 

Btw, in Hunter x Hunter, some chapters are fully drawn like sketches that look less worked on than this.

Crosshatching is a nice choice, being a "handmade screentone" itself.

hahaha, I've been thinking about this comment of yours a lot, Road. XD Made me smile, and gives me more hope for making my own manga! I like HxH a lot myself, and think the art is pretty sweet too, but I have heard a lot of people--non-artists included--complain about the 'quality' of his art in recent volumes.

I really admire those artists with a solid grasp of crosshatching! Works drawn entirely by hand are so cool!

Huh. So, I've produced another Comment Which Makes People Think, an ultimate piece of commenting art, now I know I didn't waste my life for nothing!Β  Β 


I've had to put HxH on a hold-on status somewhere at the ants ark and then couldn't remember where I've stoppedΒ  Β that ark has had a droprown in "neatness" already though it then started to get better. Not like I care, because the hand of the professtional is seen either way and chapters are still amusing.

What's worse, this manga's secret true name is Hiatus x Hiatus Β

awaah, thank you, WB!!!! I'VE MISSED YOU AND OUR ENDLESS MUROARTS~!

just saw you on tumblr too, which made me super happy. (found you through the Xenogears tag, heheh.)

I love crosshatching too! (those line strokes, as you say.) It's so fun! >w< I wish I could do a whole manga in this style and make it look damn good too

It looks really good! I thought at first that you had worked bith an ink brush for a result like that, but you drew that with a ballpoint pen? Impressive!

Rin-Uzuki In reply to basklin [2013-11-30 19:22:03 +0000 UTC]

I actually realized after posting this that I used a sharpie too. XD I'll add that info!

But thank you! I'm exceedingly fond of this too. It was lovely to cut back and just be able to doodle away for a good amount of time, rather than having to stuff drawings in between classes, between notes, between lives, whatever. Art is important!!!
