I thought I’d never buy another book again, because, frankly, I just don’t have space to store them. But ones can never have enough books. Also, never say never.
1. Color and Light: A Guide for the Realist Painter by James Gurney
2. Imaginative Realism: How to Paint What Doesn’t Exist by the same James Gurney.
3. Digital Painting Techniques: Practical Techniques of Digital Art Masters (Masters Collection)
4. Figure Drawing for All It’s Worth By Andrew Loomis
5. Dream Worlds: Production Design for Animation by Hans Bacher
6. Sargent Portrait Drawings: 42 Works by John Singer Sargent (Dover Art Library)
7. Beasts of Burden by Evan Dorkin and Jill Thompson.
8. reMIND (Vol. 1) By Jason Brubaker.
9. The Human Machine By George B. Bridgeman
I finished both of Gurney’s books a few times, as well as reading through his whole blog archives. I have to say that he taught me about art more than anyone else had ever done so. And I proclaimed him my mentor. (No, he didn’t know that :D). Digital Painting Technique, this one I got on a whim. I have way way too many digital art how-to for them to really show any anything I didn’t know anymore (knowing does not translate into actual skill, just a note), but it has Kekai Kotaki (of Guildwars fame) in it. And, well, I like Kakai. *Shrugs*
I actually own ‘figure drawing for all its worth’ before… in a form of xeroxes, half the actual size, with illegible texts. Glad to finally own a proper copy.
Beast of Burden – I do own the floppy versions. So this is a pure luxury purchase, I do like to read it again without worrying my sweaty hands would melt the darn book.
ReMIND, since I’m coloring book 2, I thought I should get book one in hand, even though I have read them all on the web already.
I have been meaning to do this for a while, but I wasn’t sure if I could handle it, selling stuff online is kinda scary to me, but there’s gotta be first step right? Also sorry if this is a cumbersome way to do it. I hope I can find better way to handle things in the future!
Please read how to order throughly, thanks!

recap: Ed & Ecchi is a short 40 pages comic in full color I did last year. It is published in Best New Manga 3, which is a 512 pages full color book, that can double as a blunt weapon, featuring short stories by various comic creators.
There’s a few reviews of the book floating around. Here’s some of them that mentioned Ed & Ecchi by name. Follow the link for full review of the whole book:

The strongest stories are haunting and sweet, particularly Paul Harrison-Davies’ “My Robot” in which a sad-eyed robot toils to serve his cruel master, yearning for some simple appreciation and affections, and Shari Chankhamma’s touching “Ed & Ecchi,” in which a stray cat leads a double life to provide comfort to two very different masters.

“Ed and Ecchi”- A young man in a society ruled by cruelty and bureacracy befriends a small cat he named Ecchi. But will the cat be his salvation from the cruelty all around him?
Shari Chankhamma goes for a painted look in the post-apocalyptic “Ed & Ecchi: Me and My Food,” starring a guy and his cat trying to remain happy while it’s all CHILDREN OF MEN-y outside.
Sad news is that there won’t be new issue for BNM this year (and possibly thereafter). I don’t know if I will ever get a chance to have full color comic published again, considering the current economic climate, but I do have plans for short stories that take place in same universe as Ed & Ecchi. Maybe one day I’ll be able to release a compilation of them in one form or another. Wish me luck!
First, Cute shoes, does anyone have shoes like this? or is it considered an abomination like Ugg? I really don’t understand fashionheads. 
I got Liquid City in my hands, and it is really cool!
Full colors, big and thick, all glossy, mmmm.
Table of contents, my name is misprinted here, no biggy tho.
Mine is right on page 100! only 7 pages tho, but good 7 pages I promise! buy it please?
seeing it like this, make me want to have my own whole comic book in colors, this size, this thick, this glossy, I guess that’s my goal now |D
Lastly, lovely Snarry* if you don’t know what Snarry is.. ignore this XD
I probably should have separate lj for pervy stuff, but I didn’t do it that often, just once in a blue moon, so bear with me yeah?
I went to dentist, therefore: comic.
Some commissions I’ve done a while ago. Finally able to show them.
Google+ inspired some doodles. Made with Manga Studio.
