Posted 14 Aug 2015 This is a pretty interesting look into how Hamada Yoshikazu creates his manga, Tsugumomo. Apparently, whenever there's a recurring background, he builds it up in a 3D modeler with all the little details and then imports it into a program and starts drawing over it. A pretty neat technique that comes out wonderful, but I feel like it consumes an immense amount of time. I'm sure it makes up for it in that after he's done modeling it, since the next set of chapters would go a lot faster and would always be on-model.I was thinking just now about how Miura (Berserk) and Murata (One Punch Man) create their manga as well and then I remembered Murata just streams himself drawing every so often on Ustream and also does push-ups. He might've stopped streaming though, I feel like I saw that at some point. Too bad about Miura though, I bet he'd get a bunch of views, especially if he took Idolm@ster breaks on-stream and obviously streamed himself playing it. The dissonance would be hilarious.

Posted 14 Aug 2015 Mhm, lots of people do. It's why I always cringe whenever I hear someone say "3D and 2D will never look good together!" Its exactly the same as saying "CGI has ruined film!" because that's not the case at all. All anyone really wants is a coherent visual aesthetic, and when a team does it right, nobody notices.

Posted 30 Aug 2015 So Berserk 339 came out in korean like four or five days ago and nobody on the entire internet has translated it yet because releases for berserk have been so few and far between for years now that the population of translators who normally would reliably have it translated after a day had passed is now nill. And so: I am dying slowly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 30 Aug 2015 See, I've learned to forget about it when it's not actively out. I'm sure it'll be done soon. Tea Party aftermath must be chronicled! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 31 Aug 2015 The long awaited Shingeki no Bahamut sequel anime has finally been announced.(Apparently, they're actually still making another season to Shingeki no Bahamut as well as this. Guess they just really wanted to animate this, too.)(http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-08-31/rage-of-bahamut-manaria-friends-tv-anime-announced-for-2016/.92328) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
