Whee. That was a fun, and overdue rant on manga terminology. I swear, sometimes its hard to write clearly about things you feel strongly about. And, of course, i once again am inspired to try to rant more often… yeah, yeah, heard it all before.

In other news, i’m seriously feeling tempted by the distraction of getting Fate/Hollow Ataraxia. I’ve been seeing screenshots lately, and while i’m not particularly drawn by the japanese fantasy sword’s ‘n stuff nature of it, the characters are appealing… especially Saber. Dammit, i avoided Fate Stay Night, and now i might get snagged.

Not bad for a doujin group that was able to turn pro and produce hot selling games just based on the quality of their work. Bravo guys.

In all honesty this really is just a random sketch. For some reason last night i found myself wandering aimlessly on my sketchbad, and oddly enough, it actually produced some scannable sketches. I’m not really sure about the dress, either in design or where it may have come from – it’s rare for me to draw female characters without some sort of defining line at the hip (seperate tops / bottoms or seams in dresses) but oddly enough it works in this one. Material of the dress? With that collar, it gives the impression of being a knit of some sort… kinda scary, if you think about it, a knit dress of that length. Saeko’s expressions, possible meaning behind these sketches as they surface? Can’t tell ya
