good fortunes are coming...


someone can lead a simple game that let us improve on the previously submitted anme file.

each reply adds a new step to the story, it keeps going ad-infinitum.

ok, i think the conclusion for me is becoming clear. it might mean point-by-point drawing is the clearly the cleanest approach, as seen from the two files. though the trick for me in order to make this work is to draw first on paper, scan it over, and lay out the points with auto-fill set to off. th...

the work is definitely inspiring.

i wonder if photoshop can deliver the same texture and quality, though.

and it seems that ASP5 dictates a certain drawing style over another, if file size is going to be used as metric.
