Anonymous asked: are the zines available? i've been like updating your tumblr nonstop but you haven't made a post about them? have they sold out? :( as you can see, i really want one!

hahahaha omgggg! I’m so so so sorry D:
Arielle and I have been kicking each other in the butt to write a post about zine orders for the past week (I even took photos and everything). We definitely have zines left for sale and will write a post tomorrow. WE PROMISE!!!!

Congrats to our favorite grumps for reaching 1 million subscribers!! We can now form our own nation of lovelies.

Also, thanks to everyone who visited/bought something/said “hi” to me at ANEXT this weekend. I had a great time and will write a more detailed recap later.

tableinthecorner asked: YOU'RE GANNA BE AT ANEXT WITH A TABLE *3*??

Yup! I guess this would be a good time to announce it in general (I’ve been lazy about it D:).
This will be my 2nd time there and I’m excited to have a better table spot than I did last year! I’ll have a few new pieces for it as well as the usual stuff I have, button pins, on-the-spot sketch commissions, etc.
Arielle (#34) and I will also have the “That’s so Sugoi!” zines for sale at both of our tables. There’s only a limited number though!
So yeah, come by and chat!!

EDIT: ahh sorry, the image is really small. My table is #33!!

getsomewhitman asked: Is there any way to get a zine if I live across the country? Oh man I want one so badly... Oh will there be a PDF of the final product so I can print and assemble myself? ahh please :D I love your art

Ahh thanks so much!
We’re reserving a small amount of zines exclusively for online orders (plus free little thank you gifts!). We’ll post more info about that after we come back from AnimeNext (June 7-9th). And we’ll ship it anywhere!

dont-blink-timelord asked: I have to say you're one of my idols when it comes to illustration! I'm 14 but I've wanted to go to Parsons for Illustration since I was 8, any tips on getting in? My main problems are realism and anatomy (my high school grades are also...average.) The schooling system in my country is literally only geared towards engineering and medical science so my school doesn't have a good art program, how can I make up for that on my own?

Hey! Thanks so much, I’m really flattered!

(REALLY LONG RANT SORRY)

Some sketches and an update!
(The top and middle right were drawn in pencil by my friend, Jackie, and inked by me)

So, I graduated last week (woo!) and things have been crazy. Not really sure how to put it other than that I feel like things are moving too slowly and too quickly at the same time. Without going into too much detail, just wanna say that I have a lot of projects coming up that I’m really excited about! More zines, some concept art stuff, some animation, and hopefully a lot of cool collaborations with friends!!!

justmariagee asked: Is there any way that we can order a copy of the zine online? I'm all the way in Seattle, so it's a bit impossible for me to make it to AnimeNext and Anime Boston. Thanks!

Yes! I forgot to mention that we’ll be setting up an online store for leftover zines.
Thanks a lot for asking! We’re thrilled that other people are excited for the zine! We’ll announce all of that at a later date.

rachelannmillar asked: Are you guys finished with your zine, or is it still possible to apply to be in it?! I love the idea so much!

Hey, thanks so much for the zine love!
Unfortunately, this zine in particular wasn’t open submission, all of the participants were personal acquaintances of ours.

It’s the first zine we’re putting together (we’re still learning a lot) and we’re definitely planning to do more! We’ll announce future zine projects when plans solidify, possibly some open submission ones! Thanks so much for the interest!

My friend Arielle (aka paper-crane) and I are putting together a zine for the upcoming con season! If you’re gonna be at Anime Boston or Anime Next (more cons TBA), come find us to grab a copy of our limited run, self-published zine!
It’s about cartoon/anime nostalgia mash-ups and features 18 talented artists.

The top image is my submission for the book and the bottom image is our shipment of the covers I designed. Peep the zine tag (“that’s so sugoi! zine) to check out more work!
