Artist focus: Let’s make character CG with Shimeko
Here is an experimental article; as I might do more artist focus in the future. I don’t expect their content to be always the same. Il will certainly depends of the material I have at hand and my knowledge. I have acquired Let’s Make Character CG 2 month ago, but as you could expect from the title, this is no artbook. So how will I review this book which certainly doesn’t fall in the artbook category? In term of illustration, there is only 3 new one in this book, certainly for the explanation. So instead of reviewing the book itself, I will dig inside Shimeko‘s artstyle as I flip through the pages of this book as she has a truly unique artstyle which I appreciate very much. I have limited skills when it comes to drawing and coloring, but I hope this will also help people who are learning, as I’m filling this article under the “Learning to draw” tag. The new illustrations are processed and saved in PNG, the rest is raw resized JPG. [PNG: 1 - 2 - 3 - 4]

Another preview for C77. I’m working in parallel with the French translation. The French one will have less circle, focusing mainly on high profiles first. I also talked about artist drawing for eroge, and eroge company do participate in Comiket. I tend to overlook them though as their set tends to be quite expensive, but nevertheless, they are good sources for artwork. We are still in the middle of the update period and it’s still slow *sigh*. I did put my preorder at Toranoana though. Also, most images I upload is resized to fit my template, but you can click on the circle/company name to get directly to the event page. Lastly, as I’m splitting the preview in several articles, you can take a look at the tags in the left sidebar and see who/what is featured.
