I'll take that red-haired dragon one if you're ordering...

ProductID 832?

That one is definitely a book (304 pages), as much as I can figure out from the given product size. If it weren't for the publication date of 2007, I'd think I have the full sized picture of that one on the wall (picked up from fearless leader back in 2006 at Sakura-con). The figure is back to back with another figure, this one holding pipes, the other holding drums. The word dragon is not on the art print. (I think there is a picture of it in the other blog...) Fearless leader and Angel have been taking these to cons and selling them in the dealer's booth. You might ask her if she has that particular picture in her stock.

I wonder what the story is about. I'm never sure whether reading about the characters is going to improve my appreciation of the art or detract from it. It depends in part on the story, I guess, but there's also an element of "do I appreciate the picture for it's art if I know too much about the characters" issue. Kind of like your reaction to knowing too much about an author.

Indeed. On the other blog, go to images/springbreak06.html
and look at the bottom-most left image.

damn, that is some pretty, pretty art. ^__^

(BTW, will i have the pleasure of seeing you in october?)

LOL! Yes, it's very pretty art. Looks fabulous framed on off white living room walls.

Probably not in October, but I won't know for quite a while. The spouse has a professional conference at the same time of year that conflicts 4 our of 5 years.

Oh! I think this is Liu Wei, De-Lan Fox (they sorta run in the same art circle).

I can ask Angel about the artbook.

Yes, it's Liu Wei. I picked up the art book and several of these pictures from Angel last time I saw you folks in Seattle. (As well as the lovely one of a boy and a girl from Angel.) I'd get more of Angel's but I have a hard time finding them, and honestly Liu Wei's rust and earth tones go better with the house.

Liu Wei's older art book, that is.

862, 863 are both posters.

The series is okay, the first few books are entertaining enough and worth reading, but then she just went on and on and on.

LOL! Okay. I'm warned! but really, it's the art that I love.
