Earthquake / tsunami

The best way to help seems to be donating money to Red Cross. Be very careful with any self-proclaimed charity as they usually are scams, and they tend to prey on good will at times like this. Look up your local Red Cross and contact them directly.

Thanks T for the idea. Sorry I borrowed it without asking. I didn't quite know what to draw, but if this gives you positive energy, I'd like to try. (I haven't watched any Star Driver either... nor do I know much about it...) Best wishes!

Alphonse Heiderich day

Since I haven't done anything for this site for so long, I feel so guilty, I should draw something... And today is Alphonse Heiderich day.

Awwww can't even remember when I last drew anything. My hands are definitely rusted. Actually I'm in crunch time right now and shouldn't be doing this at all. I'm trying to escape from reality. Awwww.... (T_T)

Chapter 108 - 01

Gangan magazine July issue sold out in major districts in 3 days, and all gone everywhere in a week! Yikes!!!

I'm really happy that FMA is loved so much. But this also means, opportunists are taking advantage of the situation and sell at jacked-up price. So far the highest is 6 times the original.

On the other hand there are fans in online communities who offer their second handed copies for free. It's super touching to see such noble fans.

Somehow I've been going to Iwase to see if they have it. Doesn't seem to be an airmail one, so the snail mail should arrive in a month. I keep telling myself that I shouldn't buy it even if I see it. It's way too thick and FMA is the only thing I'm interested in. It would be a waste. However, it's like my body doesn't listen and keep going to Iwase. Will I be able to fight off the temptation?

Chapter 108...

Predictions? Wishes? Or both...

So this is it.
Have been restless this whole month. It's been like watching someone with one month left to live. Arakawa should have been on a well deserved vacation for a while, as a few monthly installments would be banked up in advance. I hope she will continue drawing more FMA side stories. There are still so much more to be explored!

Actually, the night I read chapter 107, I had a dream about how it's gonna end. Al is not coming back. (Bad!!!) Thank God it was only a dream.


Thanks Totsu for the loincloth idea! I totally agree! (^_^) IMHO, I think the initial function was to make Al look less like a robot. But this totally works too!

These drawings took 3 days. And I skipped one day of work for them. OTL (Hush hush!) Sorry they still look like carp.

Chapter 103

.......... It's been such a loooong time since I last drew anything! I'm back! (Well, not 100% though...) No, things are still very crazy, and will get worse. But this is also the last chance to fully enjoy this awesome series. Gotta make the most of it, even if it means taxing on other things! (Otherwise I'm sure I'll regret it later.)

Still doesn't change the fact that I'm feeling very sad seeing the series approaching its end. If Arakawa said FMA will end in spring, there's only a few more months, meaning, a few more chapters! (T_T)

Long time no...

Hmm... can't say "I'm back" for sure. Things have been a bit out of whack. I'd like to keep writing reviews of the anime, if time allows. Right now it's still too tight. I'm falling behind... (T_T) Yes, I don't publish a post until it's finish, and I keep a bunch of work-in-progress around. It's my bad habbit that leads to late bulk publishing. (>_<;)

Happy Mother's Day!

(May 12, as promised, the work-in-progress picture is replaced. )

Happy Mother's Day! Sorry don't have enough time to finish it before going to bed, but I don't want to miss the date stamp. Relatives are in town and I'll probably be out the whole day and don't know if I have time to finish it when I get back. Nevertheless, a temp card for now. Will update ASAP. (^_^;) (And you can tell how many layers I'm using by counting the colours.)

Chapter 81 (1)

I believe... in order to strangle someone, you gotta be at least as tall as that person... Right??? Otherwise you can't reach his neck... Right???

Chapter 80 / 81

Rehab.

It's been so long since I last drew...

I was listening to net radio when drawing this, and it totally screwed up the brush in Photoshop. Or was it the tablet? Pressure sensitivity was completely gone.


Chapter 81 is still not up yet... Aaaw...

Withdrawal symptoms are getting worse. (T_T)

Found the first page. Original source over here (scroll up). Hoheheim's reaction is exactly what I expected. (Almost drew it too, whew...) Aaaaaawwww can't wait to read the rest! (T_T)

Belated Valentine

Thanks to some family matters, my spirit has been low lately. So low, I can't even draw. (T_T) Thus, a horribly late card... and some fooling around. Hopefully this helps. I can really use some laughs.
(For those who don't know what this picture is, try here and here.)
最近家族の事情で凹んで、不調がひどくて、絵も描けなくなった。（涙）　あああああ・・・笑いたいよ・・・笑いをくださいな・・・
