Most probably don’t know this, but I’m secretly a senior ninja artist over at Mango Drop Games. I’m responsible for a number of event art and in-game background illustrations. Mango’s just dropped a sneak peak at one of the stages of Zenith Chronicles – harhar, see what I did there? Zenith’s a side scrolling shooter bullet-hell type of game with a pretty epic storyline (over seven endings!) and I’m pretty excited to be part of the development team.
Here’s another video, this time with the Gates of the Dead – which was pretty amusing to draw.
Anyways, enjoy the preview, hope you guys like it and be sure to keep your eyes on it! I’ll try and put up some of the promo art I’ve done for the game as well.
Hi everyone, I haven’t been updating this place as I should. I’ll make a proper post in the near future so in the mean time, please enjoy this lovely shot of a change of guard in progress that I took when I was in Taiwan. The guards were impressive, not a single one moved an inch or even blinked when they were on duty. The change of guard routine involved a long march towards the palace where they then performed some rifle drills, change guards, then march back to the entrance.
Alrighty, this here is my usual work process, from start to end, on how I usually illustrate a character. Today’s model will be the lovely Akemi, who had recently just come out from more than half a year of hiding.
(And no, I do not have a Cintiq, that’s just me wishing that I did.)
I had originally pre-ordered this from Otacute back in ye old December of 2009, that’s nearly half a bloody year ago. I placed my order simply because of the gorgeous Figma figure of the newly designed Saber, who’s now depicted in a lovely red dress and a brand new Excalibur to match, that comes with the game. There wasn’t much else details about what else came with the box at the time.
Alongside the game is the Figma, an artbook and the game’s soundtrack. The box art itself looks great! I simply can’t wait for it now, according to both Play-Asia and Amiami, the bundle is slated for a late July release this year.
Preorders for GSC’s Black Rock Shooter Animation Version is finally open! This figure looks so sweet, with this now GSC has a total of 3 scaled figures of the lovely lady from BRS in addition to the Nendo and Figma toys as well. She’s up for grabs at these online retailers, AmiAmi, Otacute and Hobby Search. I wonder which ones I should get.
