Short Sunzen Covers

November 9, 2009

I was going through the archive and found these.
The process for making covers back then were all trial and approval. I originally tried to push a cover that had colorized keyart. I used this pic as an example:
Short Sunzen Cover BW Art (Unused)
And then colorized it:

After that got shot down, I opted to use the slide art from the original covers.
Here are the orignal ones in Japanese:
Short Sunzen JP Cover 1
Short Sunzen Vol. 1
Short Sunzen JP Cover 2
Short Sunzen Vol. 2
Short Sunzen JP Cover 3
Short Sunzen Vol. 3
And this is what I ended up doing with it for the US adaption. I wanted to make it resemble those High School notebooks that I used to use.

Going through the archives, for the reprint. This is the first book I did where I lettered, designed the cover, and had set up for a color insert. This book is all me, or rather, Team Pokopen.

Tune In Tokyo ads. I did these for the DJ at the event! The inspiration came from Keroro Gunso and a Gothic Lolita magazine called Kera. They came out good!

Makeshift Portfolio Book

January 13, 2009

I made a quickie portfolio book, kinda like my in-case-of-interview- break-glass-type thing. Just something small enough to have on hand, and a lit PDF of works…

This is the cover:

Adult Film Star Promo Poster

October 21, 2008

I helped out a buddy of mine work on a promo poster for an adult model. Did this a while back, but found it again recently. I like it because it’s totally different from any of the other stuff I’ve done.
