Quite a momentous occasion, this is the first time that Harriet has had a comic strip completely to herself!

Yay, it's Chipper! And she brought her underling with her this time!

I'm sorry that it's been awhile since Chipper's last appearance, this picture has been a long time coming. I've been working on this piece on and off for several months now; in fact, I started work on this way back in December! So if it feels a little wintery, you'll know why!

There isn't really much I can say about this; it's Chipper, and she's sat on a post box. Admittedly though, there's something quite enchanting about trying to make the mundane into something beautiful!

Fan art of Professor Yoh, the latest blonde beauty to come from renowned manga artist Leiji Matsumoto (creator of Galaxy Express 999 and Space Battleship Yamato).

"Out of Galaxy Koshika" is only available digitally through the Japanese WiiWare service at the moment (where I've been reading it). I hope that I'm not alienating myself too much by making fan art of such a relatively unknown character! There wasn't even any fan art on pixiv which really surprised me, this pretty lady requires your loving attention! Regardless, I have no doubt that you'll see a lot more of the series in the future. An anime adaptation has already been announced! (Woo!)

If anybody was curious where I got my web site colour scheme from, I hope this answers your question!

Maerla from naut-cotic. Her design hasn't changed much, the only noticeable change is that her shirt is now tied around her chest. It's really just a drawing convenience to stop it getting in the way; but I can still have it free flowing if I'd like.

Note to self; Trick photography in a cartoon totally doesn't have the same effect, LOL! XD

This is Narc, lead character of my comic naut-cotic. Although at the time of writing this, only the prologue is available in that he only appears in a single frame cameo.

A picture for the Japanese Doll Festival on March 3rd, also known as girls day. I'm sorry for any inaccuracies, I didn't particularly want to draw all seven platforms! XD

I love the little Japanese dolls, they're the epitome of cuteness. I don't own any (except for a key ring), but I have a small framed picture that I bought when I was in Kyoto. This picture is directly inspired from it.

This is a 3D anaglyph image, to view the image you'll need to use the standard red and cyan 3D glasses. A version for use with the retro red and green glasses is at the foot of this post.

Anaglyph images fascinated me when I was little. In the early nineties I used to try and make my own using red and green pens, with limited success. Anaglyphs have seen a resurgence lately and I figured I'd give making my own another go. The difference being that this time I have a computer.

If you have trouble focusing, please try sitting away from the computer.
