Call Me Tickled Pink

Post by Gonzai »

So, as most of you know, my main focus is Hikaru No Go - basically Sai from Hikaru No Go.
It is my most focused series and my most focused character. So, in my eyes, it is only fitting
that the following sets have joined my collection: (especially since sometimes it seems like
I am the only person who likes this series and character X| )

Both sets represent Sai's first apprearance on the show, which is really a defining
moment for the entire series. ^_^

When I was first offered these sets, I was floored. It came in a very large batch of sketches,
which cost me a ton of money, but is soooo worth it. I updated other items from
the batch a few months ago, then got lazy. Now I have updated more - including
these two sets. I still have about 9 more sets to add from the batch, but for now, I
am happy with this update. ^_^

Oh that's awesome! I totally get what you mean about adding a favorite to your gallery! There's little that feels any better than that, especially after the long, grueling hunt!! I don't know much about that series, but even I recognize that first image you posted!! I'm happy you were able to get such a cool set!! :D

Thanks for the kind words. I feel very blessed to have these. I know the person who
found them for me went out of his way looking, and I love him for that. I will do my
best to get the rest updated in the next few days. ^_^

Congrats on getting these sets. They're really nice images of Sai, and I'm happy that you were able to add something that means so much to you to your gallery.

Looking forward to seeing the rest of the sets. If these sketches are any indication of what the rest of the batch has to offer, I'm sure there will be lots of new eyecandy to oogle.

Thanks again everyone. So, I uploaded a few more, but a couple that I really wanted to point out.

First off, this was a gift from my beloved. /kis :kiss It is another defining moment in the series
when Hikaru comes to the realization that he wants to play Go. Such a great scene.

http://indomitablespirit.rubberslug.com ... mID=364570

Next, I wanted to point out a set that I updated a couple of months ago. I never announced the
update, but it was a HUGE wishlist, and I just have to point it out, since it didn't get the appreciation
that it soooo deserved. :o

http://indomitablespirit.rubberslug.com ... mID=353780

Finally (Since Jenn asked for it), my favorite of the entire batch. For as much as I Love Sai, and as
much as I dig Samurai, what could be better than Sai with a sword. 8O

http://indomitablespirit.rubberslug.com ... mID=364571

There are still about 6 sets to go, however, those will take some splicing to get done, so hopefully some
time later this week. :)

Again, thanks everyone for checking these out. ^_^

Finally I got off my butt and uploaded the rest of my Hikaru No Go. Much thanks to
Tex Chan for the splicing for me. It includes one set that is really a mile stone in the
anime. After 100 years, Sai plays Go for the first time.

http://indomitablespirit.rubberslug.com ... mID=365258

It is enormous. Took 3 scans to get it all. Same with the screen shot. @_@
Tex always impresses me with how good a job she does. ^_^ There
are also a couple other shots of Sai and Hikaru together. Now I just need to
take a break from collecting for awhile. Or at least never purchase anything
with that big of a price tag again. O_o

Wow! I noticed your latest updates early this morning Gonzai. All of them are gorgeous pieces of artwork, but of course the large pan is my new current favourite (just beating out "The Sword").

'Hikaru no Go' is one of the many anime series yet to be officially released in Australia, but once it does, I will definitely be checking it out.
Congratulations on your latest additions.

Great shots of Sai Nida! He was always my favorite character on HNG. Love seeing updates on him! :-)
