First, I’d like to encourage Betarians, especially relative newcomers, to visit my refurbished “Quirky Gallery Tour,â€

Great update as always.
I always love the scenes when Sakura gets mad like that one for they are always followed by her being motified when she realizes Yuki is watching.

Once again a really impressive update! I like the Magic Knight Rayearth concept art especially.
Your new Hina-Ichigo was on Yahoo Japan at the same time as my recent Rozen maiden sketch additions if i recall correctly. I guess it wasn't you who got that excellent Shinku/Jun sketch then, which i was internally outbid on that same day. I was kind of hoping it would end up in a rubberslug gallery, so i could at least still view it. Could still happen, i suppose...
The attention to detail in your Hyper Police tour was fantastic BTW! Your gallery is by far the best researched one i've seen.

Yes, though of course her fierceness is really central to dealing with a Yuki-related complication later on at the end of the first story arc.

Thank you, u.615. I guess as the cash I spend on updates dwindles, the more I need to make the quality of the update top-notch. If you update with THAT Nausicaa or Hime Mononoke cel, the presentation is immaterial. But for Asatte no Houkou art, which is not generating much competition (though it's very sweet), if it's not presented carefully, who will care?uchiha615 wrote:I always enjoy seeing your nicely laid out updates
Thank you! The MKR image boards were really nicer than the scans suggested. I love the way the Library one holds up even under magnification. One can just see the artist painting it like a watchmaker under one of those stands with a magnifying glass.Macron one wrote:Once again a really impressive update!

Yeah, though I was there in the game to be sure. The SMJ bidwar winner must really have wanted it, and gone really, really high, enough to risk the consequences if some external bidder came in at the last second and made him or her eat that reserve bid. It was a wonderful sketch, and I'd have snatched it if I could, but Hina was a fine consolation prize.Your new Hina-Ichigo was on Yahoo Japan at the same time as my recent Rozen maiden sketch additions if i recall correctly.

Thank you. I expect that, as the collecting field matures, artists and teams of artists will become more and more important, and the identity of the character and scene will become somewhat less central (though never irrelevant).
