Description Flyer I created to hand out at events. I inked this right on pencil using brush pen, and it turned out relatively okay. I was surprised how well it turned out considering I usually have trouble inking directly on pencils and thus tend to use light tables to do my inking. Anyway, did all the inking for this and a bunch of comic pages in Akai Tori in Shinsaibashi. I guess only a fool like me would take work to a trendy cafe like that. orz I bet they won't forget me anytime soon.

Aw, thank you so much for the sweet comment (and sorry for the really late reply). I still have a lot of flyers left and usually include them with orders. >O< I want to create more flyers soon for upcoming events. If you really want one, please message me your address, and I'll send some your way once I make more. :3

I love their faces...I also really like the flowers (you are so good at drawing those!) and the clouds, as well.

Thank you! I enjoy drawing flowers a lot. When I don't know what to do with a design I default to using them. (

Isn't eruguro not innocent by definition?

Anyway, I love this. The flowers really complement the faces and your style (:

Thank you for your comment!

The term Eroguro Innocence is actually borrowed from the band Guruguru Eigakan and a play on the term Eroguro Nonsense describing the 1920s and 1930s literary and artistic movement in Japan. Their music explores idealistic and naive youth filled with heart aches and beauty amongst sexual corruption and decadence which resonates with my own comic. Not all eroguro is gore or pornographic. XD

I know it's not always porn or gore, but as far as I know eruguro does tend to be dark and critisizing or at least uncanncy one way or another, so I couldn't quite combine that with innonence xD But now that you explained (and told me it's a reference) it makes more sense (:

XD Yeah- I was kind of confused in the beginning when I first started getting into Guruguru Eigakan, but after listening to their lyrics carefully I figured it out. I'm glad that my explanation was clear enough. XD
