The Three Lovely Ladies of the Manga & Anime Gallery!


YOUR MONTHLY ARTIST RELATIONS UPDATE!
As done by Rocky, since I am completely CSS retarted. My aunt called me to help her code CSS the last week. Whut?

Anyhoo, here is my offical contribution!

Almost DDs!
I totally stole this from ^guruubii

I get many DD suggestions but not everything can make the cut. Here is some pieces or artists I received recommendations on that I'd like to feature here!


Lan needs DD suggestions! KEEP SENDING ME NOTES, KIDS.

Black & White Feature!
Back when Guruu was doing Manga/Anime newsletters, I featured B&W manga/anime art on behalf of the ~twotonearmy. I love manga... I love black & white. So this feature is only natural! Until we get the newletter going again, I'll be posting my 5 features here. These are my personal choices, but I also take suggestions for these as well.


IS DAT SUM CONTESTS?
Oh yeah. They're coming. A joint venture between Comic gallery and Manga gallery will be coming oh so soon. I know you're excited. Don't lie. And, with any luck, I'll be heading up one myself as soon as I get the chance to write it up this week.

I got somethin' ta say
Then by all means, let me know! Suggestions? Questions? Gripes? Drop me a line.

One item brought to my attention: To Scrap or Not to Scrap. I said earlier that you should try to keep anything on lined notebook paper, etc., out of your main gallery. Your Gallery is for finished, polished works; Scraps are for anything else. As someone brought up to me, sometimes you do something on on notebook paper and it turns out awesome, and you want to show it in your Gallery. Hey, that's fine. But I'd recommend not making it a habit. Someday you might want to use your artwork for something; be it just framing and hanging, or selling it to someone for commercial use. No one will take a Gallery full of notebook paper drawings seriously. So if you do something on occasion on notebook paper and want to share, cool! But use some discretion. I see too many unfinished, barely-visible pencil doodles and such in galleries. I know not everyone is into drawing to be a profession artist, either. But a little elbow grease goes a long way! If you want something to shine, to stand out and look great, do your best to make it look so.

And now, a word from our sponser
This month's newletter is sponsered by Apple Jacks.

Ok, it isn't I just love cereal.

That's all for now! Go forth and read ^RockGirl1582's journal for the full Manga & Anime skinny! And go tell ^Karma021 she's awesome while you're at it!
