Making Manga

Or, as I call it: tbotg in short. This is a manga project that I’ve started to think of, a long time ago. Actually it passed almost 2 years, and yet, I couldn’t bring myself to work on this project. Or, maybe I just wasn’t satisfied on the characters I thought of, and the most important thing: my art capabilities were still lame. I think now I can draw ok, and even if there is A LOT of place for improvement I guess this will just have to come in time.

The tbotg is a story of a priestess revived in present, a young, modern girl, who has nothing special, a handsome young man who has a twisted life, and a lot of mystical, magical, comical, mysterious adventures – I can’t tell too much because I don’t want to spoil the mystery.

Below is the very first page of this story, which is starting with a thecnique named “ex abruptus”. anyway, here it is:

For now, this is kind of it. But, I promise to finish the first chapter until the end of September. So “stay tuned”

Hi,

This is one of my characters, named Ana. She is one of the main characters of my future story “The Book of The Gods”. Even though my characters are still suffering some modifications, their personalities will stay the same. BUT, for this one character, I am sure that even the appearance will stay the same. I am kinda satisfied with her features, in body and facial too.

Her qualities are the folowing:

- pretty, as you can see;

- she is good at school, but she is not popular; she is even bullied sometimes by her classmates;

- she has some spiritual powers hidden, that everybody will find odd;

- she is average in sports;

- she can’t cook!

- she lives alone due to her parents that have left the country to go to work in Spain; her mom is a nurse and her father is a doctor;

- she is a shy person.

Here is her looks. She is wearing her night clothes

And this is a closeup with her face:

What I like the most are her lips, which I consider very beautiful; kissable!

Well, I will wait for your comments!

Hi,

I am a little bit upset, because OneManga does not provide online reading anymore It was one of my favorite sites and I have read most of the manga there. But now….this will no longer be possible! Anyway, there still exist sites where we can read manga online, such as GamesTotal where Naruto is still on, but who knows for how long.

I wish there would start to exist a site like Crunchyroll – which provides us anime that are airing in Japan – but for manga. We should do something in this direction…but I don’t think that we have any power And I don’t know how and what can we do

I would like to know your opinion on this matter.

Thanks,

Hariana

Even if i’m in debt with you – i have to release the second page from ep 3, i’ve made a sketch of episode 4. It is all in  pencil, even the writing, so i hope you will understand the story!

Anyway, enjoy, and i will try to make this also in Manga Studio.

Hi,

The photo below took me 1 hour to make and it’s good to use it as a background image! It was made in Adobe Photoshop mainly, but also i used Adobe Illustrator, to add those vectors

If you like this and want to know how i did it, please leave o comment and be sure that your wish will come true!

Thanks,

Hi,

I’ve worked at my portfolio and this is the layout I’ve come to. I really like the outcome, but I really think that I should make something a little bit simpler – with fewer colors – so that the site would load faster. However, I haven’t started to work on the programming part, because I haven’t had the time and also because of this inability to decide if I will use this or not. Anyway, I really like this layout and I want to use it…I will think a little bit more at this!

Well, here it is!

Please comment!

“Sous sourveillance” is a french comic book that I’ve read just a few days ago, and it’s subject is very interesting: being accused for terrorism after being surveyed on the internet even if being innocent by not respecting one’s rights.

What I found very interesting was these advices and informations regarding the technologies of information and communication:

• use only https (hypertext transfer protocol secure) – a channel secured on the web for bank transactions and as well for commercial purposes;
• cyber terrorism – a terrorist action made through internet technologies;
• echelon – a worldwide network of interception and listening (of phones, faxes, internet, e-mails) public and private; these informations are analised by american secret services;
• rfid (radio frequency identification) – etiquette integrated in objects, documents (passports), transport cards or of payments etc.;
• personal informations – informations that permit someone’s identification (name, surname, e-mail, telephone, photo, biometric informations, ip adress);
• pnr – passenger name record;
• no fly list – a black list created by the american government containing people that can be a threat for USA and that cannot be going to USA;
• video surveillance;

They also say here that:

“Je n’ai rien a me reprocher” (i have nothing to reproach myself) isn’t enough for your personal informations not to be used against you, or without your authorization. So, be careful when giving your personal data, or when you make your passwords (make different ones for different accounts and also make them complex). Also, when making payments on the web, assure yourself  that the url adress is secure!!

I thought that this info is interesting to share.

Enjoy,

Hariana

Yesterday I saw how the logo I made for www.mka.ro is now happily staying at the top of the business card of the general director, and also the other employees’ business cards. I am happy because this is my first printed logo I’m going to show you below how one of the business card is looking like.

P.S. the business card’s design is not made by myself, so I’m not taking credit/critics/whatever for it

Bye-bye!

A ball-jointed doll is any doll that is articulated with ball and socket joints. This kind of doll is very popular in Asia and mostly in Japan and South Korea. A lot of young people buy a ball-jointed doll and make clothes for it, customize it with make-up and hair-styles and accessories. I’ve mentioned some sites that refer to this kind of dolls in a previous post. I also like this kind of dolls and wish to buy one in future. I don’t know when i will be able to do so, but i wanted to share with you the link of the doll that I want to buy, so here it is: http://www.dreamofdoll.com/eng/product/product_view.asp?idx=8O00000404&Page=1&Search_Type=&Search_Value=&Cate=0002|0004|0001|&Search_Cate=&Order_Name=p_num&Order_Type=Desc&Order_Num=16#

I hope I’ll succeed in owning one as sooner as possible.
Anyway, if you own a ball jointed doll, or – just like me – want one, post up a link with what you own or what you are wishing for!!

Thanks,

Hi,

I’ve just received some pictures from one of my friends, Andra (and you find her here), so I’m sharing them with you right now!

Here is a picture of me and my friends, waiting for the concert to start.

And the concert begun!

This was the big screen where there were shown some games of light all the concert’s period.

Show!

I was a little bit sad, because my friend couldn’t do some more pictures, but I will try to talk to find some more pictures at another friend of mine, so be patient!!

Anyway, Andra we thank you

Hi,

I haven’t worked a lot on my portfolio lately because i had other things to do. But, i started working again on it yesterday and i made a real progress on the design: the layout is almost finished.

What i have to do now, is to add some final touches and then to start the slicing, and then to write the css and html code, and if needed, i will ask someone to make some php programming, but i truthfully hope to do the entire site without that

We’ll keep in touch,

Hariana
