Artist's Comments

An old-ish con sketch of Nene and Linna from BUBBLEGUM CRISIS. Yes, they indeed have lips, in this version of the characters; please, just DEAL WITH IT, those of you who are prone to conniptions at the very idea of an anime character with a mouth that's not entirely muppet-like. After all, shockingly enough, a burgeoning number of "real manga-ka" (that is, authentic Japanese artists) actually draw visible lips on their characters nowadays...

Amusingly enough, I turned to the inside back cover of EMPOWERED vol. 1 (my "sexy superhero comedy" from Dark Horse, on sale this Wednesday, March 21st!) and was stunned to discover that Dark Horse apparently still has copies of the TPB of BUBBLEGUM CRISIS: GRAND MAL for sale! GRAND MAL was my 1994 miniseries telling a new tale of the Knight Sabers; I'm quite surprised to find it's still available.

I really like your technique and the way you draw your stuff... it's always breath-taking

I don't feel what you feel
I don't want to feel this incomplete
No one here can tell me
How to fill this space between
Everyone knows you're my one regret
Everyone knows you're my one weakness
:iconunholypaladinstudios:
Beautiful renditions of two of my favorite anime characters of all time! Your skill at drawing beautiful women (as well as the heavily detailed mechanical armor) amazes me. I could definitely stand to learn a lot from you and your style. :nod:

Proud creator of ~ohshitplz

the hard suits are just damn sexy. I was upset in the new series that they didn't make Nene's hair pink. sadness! And people who complain about the lips can just suck it. I love the way you draw lips, it's awesome. It's expressive. <3
:iconlordcoyote:
Typically in anime only bad girls have lips.

great as always.

Is it a good thing that children believe in the Tooth Fairy or the Hogfather or, shall we say, Father Christmas? Yes. We need to train our imagination on the little lies so that we can believe the big lies like "Justice," "Truth." - Terry Pratchett
:icondoodlemg:
Incredibly well composed with that generally cute and quirky design that your known for.
Yet another Fave from myself. ;D
:iconvandalrose:
Ah Nene XD how I love her so....
BubbleGum Crisis is definately one of the greatest Animes ever!!

:iconthawk:
Your pencil drawings have such a fluidness that makes it extremely enjoyable to look at. I think that is what seperates you from most other artists in comics today. You don't phone it in.

I really got to stop procastinating. Eh, I'll do it tomorrow. :sleep:
:iconbridgetthegamer:
I've never minded the lips before, why should I bother now?

If there's an RPG not yet played,
I'll be there!
If there's a comic book not yet read,
I'll be there!
If there are brownies not yet eaten,
...I'll be there a hell of a lot quicker!
