Nice Manga
Got plenty of stuff to post, but i don´t with what i could start. Its so boring anyway atm.
And cause i don´t want to make this post completly pointless i will show you some nice mangas i´ve read lately and that are quite nice imo.
All of these are at least (as far as i know) availble in Germany, France and Italy.
1. Shamo by Akio Tanaka (drawings) and Izou Hashimoto (story)
Well, i´ve been following this series for quite a qhile now, but was always afraid to buy book 19... due some licence Problems it won´t be published here any longer, what makes me pissed a little bit (guess i will have to import the books from now on). This Series is awsome.
What i personally like are (of course) the drawings (they are strong and dynamic) and mainly the character developement. Ryo isn´t really likeble at all, i totally disagree with his behaviour and the things he is doing most of the time, yet i want to know how the story goes on.
2. Vertraute Fremde (Harukana machi-e) by Jiro Taniguchi
This should be widely known, Taniguchi gots a lot of praise for his work for a while now. I recently saw it in a bookstore and thought i could give it a try.
I like the slow storytelling , there is no haste and you have a lot of insight to the characters personalitys. Drawings are brilliant aswell...
3.Subaru by Masahito Soda
A young girl and her talent for Ballett, i have just the first book, but i really like it so far. The drawings may look a bit rough, but i´ve rarely found an comic that carrys so much emotion like this one (i mean, it wa soverwhelming sometimes unfortunatly i havn´t found a good example on the net, and i don´t want to rip my book apart while scanning ;). The Story is for mature readers even though the main Character is a young girl. I´m curious how the series will develope :>

Also serveral month old, i planned to make some lines from it. But even after such a long time i still think i should better let it in this sketchy form ( though i could have fixed her feet, but well...). Don´t want to ruin the dynamics.
Flat colours rule btw.
Sorry for not replying comments lately, i´m braindead from watching to much キーボードクラッシャー videos on nicovideo XDDD

comic stuff
Posting the comic stuff (or better said: Parts of it i´ve done for school almost an half year ago...i actually don´t want to show the whole thing cause its just messy, rushed and so much trash XDDD I think i will post some more concepts when i´ve cleaned my harddrive a bit.
Basicly i can say that this whole comic was some kind of test for me, and it was a lot of fun. Though, next time , i think, i will do the characters in cell shading and just the background painted :/
Some of these characters are not in the final result...

>:)
Started this yesterday at work (of course during the breaks ;)).
I was trying some things with textures, the motive itself is of course pretty random and characters doesn´t belong together ( to explain the size difference).
And I am sorry for showing again a knight ... i just love shining armor *_* Dunno, if i want to go on with the painting :)
EDIT: Forgot this one...

question...
EDIT: Big thanks for Kajiba for the hint, i found what i was looking for :D
It seems that Ben Hibon is the creative mind behind the movies, i have found a lot of concept work on the webpage, very cool stuff :) And i was also right, he was the (art)director for the small "Heavenly Sword" movies.
Others than that , the Studio he worked with for Killer7 is also worth to check it out :)))
Unit9
-------------------------------------------------
I wonder who did these animation clips, they are cutscenes from a certain Level from "Killer7" (Gamecube and PS2).... ._. I have the suspicion that the guy who did these is also involved in this animu-clips for "heavenly sword"....let me know if you have infos :/ I would love to know if there is more... (btw. suda51 rules, can´t wait for "no more heroes" )
Of course the vids contain spoilers =D
More shorter clips

>:D +Edit
EDIT:
lol Comic Preview. In Case you wan tto know what is bothering me right now...i will post the finals with text later when i´m done with the whole work (me needs to rush) @_@ Heavily Ashley Wood inspired as you can see, it really was my last hope to make it this way, and strangely enough i can work with color atm. much faster than with traditional ink...
--------------------
Not dead...yet. Sorry for the lack of updates T^T School doesn´t let me rest. I hope its over the next weeks...
Other than that, i somehow start to like Painter9 very much, dunno. I finally found some tools i can work with very well. I guess if you would have asked me about Painter some weeks ago, i would have answered that it´s Software from the Devil itself XDDDDDDD Strange how fast my mind changed ...
