animu north bonus

Journal Entry: Sun May 20, 2012, 7:16 PM



Anime North this coming weekend c: I'll be bringing THIS
binder4.jpg
binder3.jpg
Yes, the original pages for Carciphona! The binder is pretty damn heavy so I will only be bringing pages from the Arenscura arc as photographed above. Up to page 50 of book 3 (or more if I finish more this week) are in there with crappy handwriting text, so you can spoil yourself and read on if you like (: If you're interested in seeing them, come and ask and I'll show you!

I most likely won't be taking commissions as I think I need to work on comic pages in order to play catch up, and my sketch commissions suck anyway. But I may change my mind if I realize that's being way too socially awkward penguiin of me orz

Other updates

Carciphona

Carciphona is my baby~ It is my original manga. It is available to read for free online and updates weekly on carciphona.com, and is published by myself in print whenever I finish a new book. Most of the artworks I do are for this series. Please check it out and if you enjoyed it, share it with your friends and those who may be interested! Thank you for all your support ^^

Really satisfied with your prints, Shilin :) It was nice seeing you at Anime North. If you still remember, I was the male who requested for a photo and claimed to watch all your videos, haha. Hope that didn't scare you-:icontearplz:

It is unlikely because it is always on the same weekend as my hometown convention, but I will have it as backup (:

all art from this artbook were posted online at one point or another; some pieces like the scraps you may have to dig deep into my blogs to find them, but there's no exclusive content in them. I will be doing that for future artbooks that I may make

Hi there! I've got F11 at AN this year, so I look forward to meeting you ^__^

Although, seeing your art makes me want to stay home now, you're so talented!

Hello! I was wondering what dpi and page size you work on work Carciphona. I was told the page resolution had to be 600dpi or higher or else the pages will be a little pixellated. And Carciphona doesn't seem to be pixellated.

I draw at about twice the printed size. in pixels it was about 300-400 dpi. If you're talking about the web version, it is impossible to see pixelation on screen because that's not where the problem is. If you're looking at my printed book, then yes it does look ok, but there are some parts where detail such as small people would've been nice but it was impossible to draw at that resolution on paper.
