It was Hana's birthday today (which is over in Japan, of course...). But still...

Happy birthday, Hana-chan!Sadly, I didn't manage to get any Dracula art done, but instead I bashed out this speed paint of an old sketch based on an even older photo taken by Shinoyama Kishin for the magazine Brutus in 2007. Meh. More of an exercise for me in quick ( Read more... )

It's that time of the year again. :)

Happy O3rd birthday, Taka-chan!

Dracula! With Taka-Hana!!!

I may have been quiet recently, but I can't ignore this... :D

Agh, well, I'm a whole two weeks late, but I hadn't forgotten...

Just a quick sign-in from the dark world of no interwebs to wish Taka-chan a happy birthday ( Read more... )

Better late than never...

As you have no doubt heard by now, Taka-chan is going to be playing Marlene Dietrich in a musical entitled: ディートリッヒ　～生きた 愛した 永遠（とわ）に～ (roughly, The Life and Loves of Marlene Dietrich). Yay for her year-long hiatus being over!

The big surprise, however, is that O-Hana is making her stage comeback as Edith Piaf in the same ( Read more... )
