    Only joking, thought I'd come up with a vaguely comical title for this thread :) Anyway it's been ages since I've put artwork on here, so here's my two latest pieces!

    Details Realised About 'PiQ' - ADV's Newtype Replacement

    Just thought I would share this with everyone - http://comics212.net/2008/01/18/first-l ... ment-40885 It certainly looks quite different to Newtype, let's just hope it's as good... but many have their concerns (including myself). I'm concerned it's going to lose it's 'Japanese' feel...

    Post It Notes

    It's just occured to me how big an enthusiast of Post It notes I must be... my desk is absolutely littered with them, each with a vital bit of information which usually gets forgotten about. On the other hand, they're extremely useful for an 'emergency' doodle or a great idea that's about to...

    Jobs in the anime/manga industry?

    This has been something that's been on my mind for a while... what kind of opportunities exist in the anime/manga industry aside from the most prominent jobs such as voice acting etc? Is there much of an opening for new entrants or is it a fairly closed off area of business for Mr/Mrs Average...

    Cosplay in the Telegraph

    Today's Daily Telegraph, page 28 has a nice big picture of a Trigun cosplayer at Comic-Con. No mention of the fact that he's cosplaying, what he's dressed up as or anime/manga in general at all in the article, but it's progress I guess.

    Gunbuster (Top o Nerae)

    Well, I've just finished watching this blast from the past, and I must say it's a brilliant OVA series - perhaps even more likeable than Rahxephon and Evangelion (dare I say it?!). The basic premise is your normal loveable heroine, Noriko, who wants to be a mecha pilot in the memory of her...

    Cheeky's Stuff

    Figured I'd better have just one thread for my art, so, it starts here!!! Here's the latest bit I've been working on... there's a few mistakes I'm not happy about but I'll make do with it, some careful colouring will help with that. Also, I'm going to have a go at doing a decent background...

    Lineart Tutorial

    I decided to do a tutorial on how I prepare my line art for colouring in on the computer - sounds like a mundane thing but a little bit of attention and a few minutes of effort will pay off with good looking lines. Anyway, hope someone finds it of use! I'm posting a link to it 'cuz it's a...

    Anime cliches

    Well, we some to love our questions round here, so what's you're favourite anime cliches? Mine are the overuse of cherry blossoms in anything related to romance, and only teenagers of a certain age being able to pilot a mecha.

    Latest CG

    Well, I hadn't done one for a while so I thought I'd give it a try again. The drawing isn't too bad though there's definatly some proportion issues there, and her left arm looks a bit awkward. Luckily a bit of shakiness with some of the inked lines hasn't shown up! (BTW all my inking is done...

    Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni (When They Cry: Higurashi)

    Saw some clips of this show, not really knowing what it was or even what's it about. A review in Newtype has shed some light on it, so I thought I'd share the info. It's set in a small town, has a transfer student with four female friends, and all looks like your typical romantic comedy. And...

    A very short manga I wrote a while back

    I did this for a competition, but didn't do a good as job as I could have done on it... should have given myself longer! Anyway, since it's my first manga (and only at the moment), I though't I'd post a link to it and let people look at it if you want to...

    Some previous works of mine

    Since I'm new round here I thought I might post up some links to a couple of my pictures that are lying around on the internet. If anybody's interested in seeing more of my sketches I'll scan them in and post them up. http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/40628599/...

    What's your car?

    Since I'm a Japanaholic or whatever you want to call such a thing, it's only natural that I have a Japanese car. It's a Suzuki Ignis Sport, bit rare on these shores but that's what I like about it - a proper small Japanese car! :twisted:

    Rumbling Hearts (Kiminozo)

    Saw the first episode on a Newtype demo disc, and it seemed a bit interesting from the review. Also, some friends realised they'd seen it and Japanese and recommended it. So I bought Volume 1. And.... I can highly recommend it! It's a romantic tradgedy, for the most part, but that makes it...
