O my god, you just did it again!

Amazing, really, truly amazing!

It's so extremely detailed, must have cost you quite some hours to get this done! The great thing is that you can look at it a long time, and see something new every time you look again

I truly hope you'll draw more original art, it's simply amazing!

*favs it*

Ohh, what I'd give to enter that Tokyo-Pop contest...or rather, did. Got rather bitter with them when I planned to enter last year and found out I had to be a US citizen to enter. Kinda...really heartfelt of them, when they get so much bussiness from outside the US too. *shrugs*

You kiddin' me???? That totally sucks! Wish I'd vouch fer ya, but that'd also be unacceptable as well Ah, well. (America SUCKS, once again *goes to write down on her black list of why the U.S. is a fictional place* I though you were a world citizen altogether, what with you bein' from New Zeland, but also residin' in the U.K. AND Hong Kong. Still, I don't know how it works, but I kinda envy ya -- it'd be a good excuse to move away from America until things starts to cool off, political-wise) SURELY there's a New Zelander version down there, isn't there?

Even if you CAN'T submit it to Tokyopop's U.S. competition, I'd still like to read it... However... It's just that I'd think I would rather BUY it rather than "preview" it on Deviant Art, ya know? I'm picky like that as an honest eBay consumer: if ya like it, buy it ta support the artist, I always say, ya dig?

Do ya really have to continue with just fan art, also? Sure, it GOT you a lot of viewers, I'll grant ya that, but sooner or later, people are bound to look deeper into YOUR OWN work, your own univers. After all, we all know your reputation as a great artist, not JUST because of the Jak and Daxter universe (honestly, tho', I found you while searching for "Ratchet and Clank" images for a school project, and then your Ratchet commission popped up while browsin' through the thumbnails -- it was a real surprise to me that there would be GOOD fan art on ANY of the games I liked).

Jus' so ya know: ya got a potential fan for your future original manga work

*lol* American companies are big bullies! That's all I can say. XP

True. I plan on maybe making my manga into small comic forms and selling them with a small press-store in NZ (also means I can get into the conventions for free to sell em! Whoot!) - which means that I'd sell in NZ for a bit, then maybe sell some online. Best thing is - Manga's getting rather big in NZ, but none of our local comic artists work in that style...I think I've got something going here.

And as for Fanart...well, it's my passion, so it's what I like to work on. I do my original characters too, but I tend to use 'em for college projects and things like that...I guess maybe once I start getting some manga out there, it'll be more likely to pop up more (there's some REALLY old manga-art in the back of my scrap books from my first manga 'Utopia' - I dunno if I'm going to re-do the art and that story for actual publishing...but it's still there, if you want to see what I was doing a year and a bit ago. ^_^)

Sure! Art evolution is a facinating thing to see, actually, no matter HOW sucky you may think it was back then -- it shows how much improvement you see in yourself.

I know! We are a nation of BIG BULLIES! And that ain't right! (Everytime someone outseid America reminds me on how horrible it is here, I have to list them down for reasons to move outta here, and APOLOGIZE on behalf of all stupid Americans, because they're TOO STUBBORN and PROUD to say that themselves!)
