Thank you, Chie-san!

I’m probably going to get into a lot of trouble by morning, since I have several other deadlines I should be taking care of-… but anyway!

I’ve been watching Uta no Prince-sama Maji Rabu on Facebook for a while now, and one of the admins, called Chie, is actually living in Japan and posting news about exclusive UtaPri events… in English! Of course, because of that, many of her photos and news are being stolen by other sites without crediting her page.

I know how that feels… Not only are my fan arts often stolen from me, but my other blog, Cosplay Holic, has fallen dramatically in ranks because many people steal my articles too. I’ve completely given up on reporting them all, but I keep the site active anyway because, even now, I still want people to find the cosplayers behind the amazing photos. However, it doesn’t mean that I no longer feel hurt when people steal content from me.

And so, because I have no advice to give in handling situations like these, I wanted to cheer Chie-san up in the only way I can. If I remember correctly, she like Masato the most, so I drew him reaching over to pat Chie-san on the head.

Have a good break, Chie-san… please don’t let the idiots of the fandom get to you.

Gold Manga: WISH*GRANTED

Since everyone is posting their sneak peeks, I guess I can post mine too! O(≧▽≦)O

WISH*GRANTED is about Louise, a teenage girl who has a crush on her schoolmate, Harry. Like any love struck teenager, all she wanted was for Harry to notice her, and maybe, ask her out for a date. Would making a wish in their school fountain help make her dreams come true?

I really like this story, so I did my best in illustrating this manga as best as I could! I don’t know when it will be out in stores yet, but I’m sure it’s coming very soon! o(≧∇≦o)

Thank you, Kkabyulism, for the chance to work with you! And of course, the lovely Miss A.B.Castueras for her mad editing skills! I hope you guys will enjoy this story! And please check out Enjelicious’, Power-J’s, and RAYKOSEN’s posts on Facebook too! ☆~~ヾ(>▽<)ノ。・☆

Chibi Lei and Cinna-chan’s Christmas

Lei-Lei commissioned me last December for a Christmas label. She made her own gifts last year and wanted to personalize it with a chibi version of herself and her pet, Cinna-chan. (。´∀`)ノ

I think it turned out really well! I especially loved the green santa outfit and how fluffy the lining came out. (ღ˘⌣˘ღ) ♫・*:.。. .。.:*・ Cinna-chan looks a little awkward though… I haven’t drawn him in a long time…

I wonder what the recipients thought about these labels? (m*´∀`)m Lol…

Kurohiko’s ART SUMMARY 2014

Another year has come and gone, and I’m happy to say that I had even more manga projects for the year 2014! I’ve learned a lot last year, including being patient with myself, as I’m less industrious than the younger generation of Pinoy Manga Artists! I’ve also realized how much hard work and dedication it takes to go from one manga to the next, not to mention, adjusting styles to better suit the story entrusted to me! (´ω`★)

Most of all, I feel incredibly blessed to have fellow artists as my friends and rivals as we push each other to become even better than we were before. Thank you, Enjelicious, Power-J, and Raykosen! And to my idols, Sir Memer, Sir Ilog, Miss Tepai, Florineil, and Kuru-san, I promise to work even harder so that one day, I can proudly say that we have become rivals!

Let’s go, 2015! I’m ready when you are! O(≧▽≦)O
