Superific Spectacular Guest Week Page 12…
Today’s Guest page is from Bryan King of Neo Realms…
Bryan deftly illustrates how a kid who watches too much anime could OVERDO it in Dreamland.
🙂
I don’t know all the Japanese sayings…but it’s funny nonetheless.
Thank you so much Bryan. This is such a fun and well drawn guest page. I really love it.

Go visit Bryan’s website and say hi…
Hehe… it’s kids like those that make anime look bad. Pity though. There’s enough really good ones out there too, besides all that over-commercialized junk.
I find this very disturbing…
AMEN!
Great comic!
YAY!
Greetings and salutations, I feel that I should explain my comic. I am in fact a fan of “good†anime and at this very moment can’t wait to watch the new episode of Blade of the Immortal.. My comic actually comes from the fact that I teach high school art. I am blessed to have some incredible talented students but the amount of manga rip offs I go threw when I get a fresh bunch of kids is staggering. I remember having to ban all Dragon Ball pics my first year teaching. I would like to thank Scott for letting me participate in the guest comics with all the other great creators. Oh and a small thing Scott, I gave you the link to my companies site instead of the comic if you get the chance could you switch the link to http://www.neo-earth.com Many thanks.
Yes, I completely agree. Miyazaki is amazing and I like some animes. But when I look at art in our society especially drawn by kids and teens, they rip off of the anime styles and just DON’T formulate their own original styles or they DON’T study from real life. They teach themselves how to draw anime but they don’t use the greatest teacher in the world to help them learn true anatomy- that teacher being life and real people.
Kaikuro, you brought up one of my mantras. Draw from life. Learning to draw from any cartoon is an abstraction of an abstraction and you can never develop your own style that way. Funny you mentioned Miyazaki, I just got a copy of the life action Grave of the Fireflys series. I have shown the animated version in my class for the last 8 years but I have never seen the live one.
LOL. Oh man, that’s hilarious. It almost makes me feel ashamed I draw anime. Haha But yeah, I seriously regret not taking those art lessons as a kid and not learning how to draw from life first.
Shadilyn based on the artwork in Key I think you overcame not taking the lessons just fine.
*nods* Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Either way, I know WAY too many kids like that.
Gotta agree Bryan. Anime is great, but one has to remember that it is a style. A serious artist must develope their own skill and technique. BTW, I really enjoy Neo Earth! It’s been in my fave’s list for a long time.
Thanks RG. I loved your idea of the barrel hiding a secret door.
How do I see this guest page?
I tried to see it yesterday and it was the last page of the Making Of series. Now all that’s available are the description and the comments.
Oops! Never mind. I found it.
the comics aren’t loading for me and there ain’t no new comics for a couple of days already… is this just me or what? 😐
Hi Egtwel…
Yes. It may be just you.
Maybe try a different browser?
You should be seeing Page 1 of Chapter 13 right now up top.
Try clicking HOME at the top of my page (next to Start Reading)
Hope that helps.
Scott
Yeah, something’s gone bonkers with things since guest week page 12 for me. And others it would seem. Clicking home got it back on track though.
I watch just enough anime for my dreamcharacter would be an immortal vampire who injects himself with morphine so that he feels nothing so ha
I watch a lot of anime but I try mixing in real-life proportions in with my art. I’ve gotten to a point where people (say they) can tell that it’s my stuff since I use a lot of different drawing concepts from several areas and mix them together.
Love the comic tho! Sometimes the hair people come up with is just plain silly.
Hey Ser, I hit your Dev site and you have posted photo reference. Your not only talking the talk but walking the walk. Good for you. I am watching so keep the artwork coming.
I’ll try and get some art up soon. I’ve been getting a lot of homework these days and it’s hard to get some decent drawings in.
Glad I can actually back up what I say. X3
