Global issues?

Hi viewers. Today's a total flop. Wasted an entire day(of precious time which could have been spent presumably on drawing) waiting for an interview that never came. See, I'm given a chance to go with friends and schoolmates to Europe(finally that day has arrived). It's Germany! I'm actually excited about the trip even though I haven't been granted a place to go yet(but I know I will eventually go). Thanks to my classmates who spent the entire morning and half the afternoon with me(I'm using their project idea for the interview session - hope you 4 don't mind). It's really just to talk about it. Really.

So all I've got to do is to talk about a global issue. What is it? Yes, Land Shortage. It's evident in most urbanized areas right? It's of course economic, social and a geographical problem. Sustainable living and growth is just part of this, then there is the efficient use of land, and the efficient use to space(not only land).

Most of this is already in place though not widely use due to the lack of research and development of technology that supports land-saving methods.

Okay, enough of the boring stuffs. Sorry but I'll be doing some research tonight(so there'll be no drawings today). But, I can make an exception to draw concept art for ideas to tackle this global problem. Hmmm... sorry Hoi Bing Lai(but I'll be editing your concept into 3d and make some changes).

Credits of the amazing ideas to my friends, Benjamin Tan, Wei Key, Hoi Bing, and Thu Ha.(and sham who wasn't there)

Old Art works part 2



This is part 2 of my old artworks gallery. Okay, so here's an artwork I did for the GCSE O levels. It's titled, out of the sea. It represents freedom for wildlife to choose. The waves and the breaking horses from them symbolises the unity of mothernature and animals alike and that we humans should respect this bond, and allow wildlife and nature to coexist, and not be destructive about it. Afterall, we share this world with them, let them live freely just like we live freely in this world.

To tell the truth, my O level artwork is rather mediocre in comparison with what I do now. I did expect an A from those artwork though, but, I think its rather impossible considering that level. But then again, its still beautiful enough to warrant at least a low A right? Nevermind that though(it's already long over)
Plus, most of my O level works tend to encircle around a particular meaning and particular topic. Ha. Guess its my luck to receive "almost the same" topics everytime. :)

Old Art works part 1

Time to post some old artwork. First would be "orchids at dusk"... This is one of the old artworks that I did at the start of this year. Well, it's a good first try for watercolour and pen art. Well, it's not all the best artwork I've done, but it's pretty good I got to say)even though most of it is accidental spillage of the watercolour.

Hey, so enough talk already and show me the art already!(is this what you are thinking now?) Well, okay...


anyways, enjoy tonight and have a Happy Halloween!!!

Happy Halloween

It's finally nearing Halloween already yet, I am not feeling too well at all. Plus, I think my luck is running dry. I had my phone blank out on me, my friend suddenly doesn't want to go overseas(after agreeing almost 5 months ago), my entire body feels like its breaking apart and this constant abdominal pain.

But, with the Halloween around the corner, (even though I don't celebrate Halloween here) A happy Halloween to all who celebrates Halloween(especially when most of my blog's viewers are Americans). So to celebrate, I did a drawing a week ago which is in the theme of halloween. It's not the usual drawings because it's incomplete and almost certainly all pencil!



Once again, I wish all my blog viewers a Happy Halloween(enjoy trick-or-treat-ing)and a great weekend ahead! :)

Not Manga Art?

Yes people, it's not manga art I am presenting today! It's my randomly, fantastic looking, beautiful, inspiring, and difficult to do pen and watercolour painting. Yeah, its not very easy. Well, first you need to use a waterproof pen of course(but not all are waterproof when they say so on the labels(so be careful).



Anyways, first I have "Dawn at the Pier". It's a artwork that displays my views on life. Like this pier, one has a choice to walk to the end alone or with someone else. If so, the journey will of course be tough(from the broken planks - filled with obstacles). Also, it is fairly long, and failing will plunge you into the deep abyss(unknown outcome - the sea). But if you ever reach the end, dun worry, life doesn't end so easily, you can always take the small boat out for a paddle and explore more of life's wonders. If you confine yourself to the pier however, you will always be filled with boredom and you will finally reach the end point without much knowledge of the world you lived in. So, get up and be brave, explore the world and enjoy your life. All you have to do is choose wisely and get over those hurdles!



Second is "Harbor Blues". This is done because I had extra watercolour left that I hate to just throw it away. Hence the noob artwork. Pardon me. It has no deep meaning as compared to dawn at the pier. Anyways, to any singaporeans... If you wish to buy my art prints, you can either contact me or comment on my flash web. Prices range from SGD$7-60(dependent on the type and size of print). Oh, by the way, it is HQ prints taken with an SLR camera at its highest resolution.

No drawings again. Bad mood :(

Today has largely been a roller coaster ride. But it isn't the fun one, neither is it something to look forward to. Its so terrifying that you will regurgitate your heart out. For the first time in my life I am looking back at the possibilities of choices and where I would have been now, and I also feel for once disappointment beyond the norm.

One, the day started badly. I failed a subject of course(not by a lot) but enough to seal my fate. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

In view of my tiredness, I will not be posting a drawing today. I'm so sorry for those who regularly check my blog out everyday. I will resume posting tomorrow.

Secondly, I received results of subject that I was Acing. Not that it was bad, but I lost to 2 people. I really wanted to comfort myself for the one "wasted" year. But I guess I wasn't good enough. I got to congratulate myself for still getting an A even with so many careless mistakes. It's still a wonder. Maybe I was a wee bit too complacent. I'll take this as a form of lesson.

Then, now I realise how my friends felt last year with my horrible results. They are genuinely worried, asides their scores about their friends' fate. Yes. I am worried for the outcome of my entire class, not just those few. It's rather worrying. I just hope the school will be more flexible. Not hitting the gauge slightly shouldn't get you into such shit! I can of course just blame the school for their inflexibility, rigidity and self-centeredness, but if one thinks, its everyone's fault. The student didn't work hard enough, the school system is screwed up, and many more(that I cannot think of). So, I just wish everyone of 10S16 all the best. No matter what happens, just follow what you think is best for you. No matter what you choose, I'll be behind you all the way.

ps: to those who missed by a few marks, dun be so pessimistic. The law of Attraction states that all negativity will only stand to attract more negativity. So think more positively. The teachers will push you up. Trust me on this.
Plus, its really not that bad retaining(take it as a year more to play around with your basics and set them right). Of course the bad part is having to pass all(but you will come to realise that it isn't all that difficult). Anyways, goodluck.

Tutorial(Facial Components) by Masaru Takahashi

Now its time for the tutorial. Since the tutorial consists of many parts, eyes and facial components, this first tutorial will consist of eyes(basic) and face structure(female). The next shall be ears, mouth and face structure(male). All these shall be kept to the basic however, if you would require the intermediate ones, kindly post in the comments or the message box on the right side of the page. You could of course use the basic face components and experiment with them to create your own style. That is the most satisfying for me.


This is the complete page(but I doubt you can see the words). So, I have taken zoom ins for the different parts of the tutorial.



This is the basic eye structure of the protagonists. Happy trying it out!



This is the basic eye structure of the antagonists.



Part one of female face/head structure.



Part two of the female face/head structure and the incomplete(almost complete) final drawing of the female head structure. Of course you can play around with the hairs and eyes to make her different.

This is Masaru Takahashi. Thanks for viewing my tutorial. If you could kindly leave a kind remark or a compliment(or critics), I will be very thankful. Anyways, I'll leave the Halloween surprise for tomorrow. Till then.

Hardwork=Results=Good Mood?

In view of my good mood today... guess what? We'll have 2 posts. One would be me ranting on why I am in a good mood. Plus a Halloween special manga art piece I did yesterday.

Okay. So nothing can get as cliche as "it's definitely not me"..."and YOU are the top in *whatever subject*"? Wrong. It just happened. Totally shocked. It's really not because I studied properly. To tell the truth, I only studied for human geog for half and day and 2 hours before the exam. And I left it to the last hour and a half to complete it. Little did I ever expect to receive such marks. I guess life sometimes does bring extreme surprises you never think was ever possible. Well, that's about all. It's one of the rare moments that my hard work has actually paid off. Even in my manga, so much hardwork is being poured in, yet, there are so little returns. I'm not saying I am feeling sorry for myself. It's just a little heartbreaking. But, I'll continue working as a freelance manga artist until one day I make it to be on par competing with my fav manga series, Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, and Fairy Tale.(not forgetting kekkeishi and Bakuman!)

So of course I am rather happy with results that has results, more than I expected.
I'm going to take a rest first. So, I'll post the tutorial on faces and eyes later, plus the Halloween special art! :)

Manga tutorial 2

Well guys, here's another manga tutorial I had on how to draw poses and figures. I did this because I was kinda bored of drawing all the Kieran Chase stuff all day and needed to draw other random stuff. Even this is amazing though. I still managed to keep to one post a day schedule after a few weeks. And there is drawings done. It's a one day per drawing schedule now. Sadly, I have no mood to do the recurring page for the "FaeHunter Slime!!!" story. I have another page on that. A super cool and handsome guy is going to appear!!! Woots I can't wait to ink that page down! And I know you can't wait for me to post that up. Of course, you will have to wait.



Okay as I said, one must start with basic shapes and lines. So see, the base of how I want my boy/man to be. First, the head is important(I could of course make the head into a smaller circle instead) but because of its importance, I decided to add the head into step one(to have the overall feel of his direction facing i.e whether it is possible or not). So, next, we move in to drawing circles on the lines to highlight the joint parts. then of course we try to make the basic shape of the human from the lines and circles. After that, you can actually start adding the details to the shirt and the pants, and start with the face later. You can of course do so otherwise. It's base on your own preferences. I prefer to start with the clothes because it gives a more complete feel. Anyways, you can then either ink the sketch or add in extra details if you like. And then, you are done with a manga man/boy! :) I like that pose!

FaeHunters, slime?

Sorry guys for not posting this yesterday. All morning I was trying to stop the bleed in my mouth. I found a remedy that actually works wonders... even though it takes 30-50 minutes or so. But hey, at least it works. It's to bite on a warm moist teabag(black tea is the best).

Anyways, since the bleeding stopped, I decided to draw another one page manga on monsters. But after I did it, it was so beautiful that I've decided to incorporate it into my current manga project, i.e Kieran Chase. This acidic slime is known as Fae hunters. They usually only feed off magic from faeries while consuming them. But time to time, they actually prey on the humans because of the massive amounts of them on the surface. Think of it like having to hunt in a forest for food as compared to having an entire buffet table right in front of you. Hey, the choice is rather obvious. Besides, the faeries are protected by enchantments and basically have a police squad that has weapons. Why injure yourself from hunting your food when you can have food that is just there for you to take? So well, if I were the slime, I'd choose the human even if it means less magic abilities. Meh, I'm too hungry to care about that anyways. Just to fill my stomach. Wait, did I say stomach? Oh, I forgot that I don't have one. Hahas. *Slurp*



Oh, and remember to visit my flash web for a higher quality viewing.

Update on the operation and Manga Tutorial

Can't say the "operation" when well because I vomited straight after the "surgery" and it was more of extraction than surgery, i.e. the dentist pulled the tooth out rather than cut and take it out. So well, its painful. And that's why I am still awake even at this ungodly time.

Anyways, I've decided to do some manga tutorials on basic manga skills. Like eyes, face, head, ears, hands, feet, shoes. Hair, toning, background, inking, and accessories are more intermediate skills. So, it's way beyond what an amateur like me can teach a normal person. Of course its largely due to my lack of experience in drawing that I've no idea how to go about doing it. But, today I'll be posting pics of basic head shapes(at different angles) for both female and male. And, I'll be posting the "basic hand how to".



Here it is. The first is a 360 planar view of a women's head. The next is the same but for a man's head. Then at the bottom is a rough sketch of a side view woman and the steps to drawing basic manga hands. If you noticed about the hands and the head, they are basic shapes that work together to make a natural form like the shape of a hand for example. Firstly, you work the base which usually consists of triangles, rectangles and circles. Then working on the base, you add the general look and add the details. Then voila, you get whatever you wanted to draw.

Fantasy Realm

I'm finally done with the one-page short-story manga titled "Fantasy Realm". I got the idea from reading a book that I really thought would be good if everything in the book could come out in real life. It would be awesome. Then, the "light bulb" thing came and this idea of having a person capable of releasing the fantasy of the realm of trapped imaginations of writers that in their ink and writing, seal their thoughts and imagination into a space somewhere unknown.



This is only the low quality one. If you want to see a high quality one, you could visit my flash website or my facebook album though I'll only be able to upload them later. Check in a days time. Happy viewing.

So, there are people who are able to release these trapped imagination and make them into reality. Of course this is good as well as bad... But then again, I am only making this story for the fun of it(it is interesting but it will hardly make shonen jump material). I can make a complete chapter or even a one shot to enter it into a comp but its rather time consuming. I'd rather work on Kieran Chase(much more shonen jump stuff) but, if there are request to have a one-shot I'll try my best to follow through and complete it! :)

Anyways, I may not be able to post much or draw much in the next few days. I am going for a minor surgery tomorrow. So, it may be a little inconvenient and uncomfortable to draw manga. So, instead I might rest. :P

Kieran Chase Cover one and a new short story?


If you have seen my flash web, you probably would have seen this pic too. But nevertheless, there are other drawings that I am currently doing. Apparently my plans of drawing during the study break has been twerp. So I am doing it during my leisure time. Now, I am working on a short one-page story for my best friend as a birthday present. It should be done by tomorrow. So I'll post it tmr. I've already done half the inking. Not bad eh? :)

No Drawings today.

Worst day(s) of my life. Travel for such a long time. Bad dreams all night long. Sleep in the day. A damn sore throat. And I didn't get what I want! What is this man!?

So in view of the inconvenience of even posting this, I am not posting any drawings at least for today. Sorry to those who genuinely like to see my drawings up every day. Today is just not that kind of day.

Anyways, anyone had a weird dream before? My dream is so weird that I dreamt of stuffs in a 4th person view. Can you imagine that? It's like dreaming something in someone else's head. Okay. Just downright weird.

Instead of me ranting today, why not you all post(in the comments) about some weird dreams that you've recently had? :P
I look forward to seeing the dreams you all had(maybe then mine wouldn't be so weird then).

Okays... but since there is no drawings... I thought a flash based website would be good. Why don't you guys visit it? Yeah? It's a gallery of my works. It's @ Masaru Takahashi's flash web.

Oreste



So, he's cool looking right? Yeap. But what has he got to do with Kieran? Believe me, nothing. He got more to do with the fairies than with Kieran. Wait... Did I say he got to do with the fairies? What? What is a human doing related to the fairies? Isn't the fairy race hidden far away from the knowledge of humans? Yes and No.

Apparently Oreste is a descendant of witches. They have been feared by the humans for a very long time especially in the 18th century. However, witches are humans themselves. They only have this fearful abilities like longevity and healing because they consult with the magic powers of the fairy race. In return for secrets to longevity(what most people would want), they are to keep all secrets sealed and do the bidding of the fairy race. They are like agents for the fairy race. They live among us.
Oreste is a modern wizard though. His weapon of choice fires energy bullet created by magic. Hence, a deadly and almost flawless murder weapon of choice.(the magic dissipates once asked to).

But of course there are slight disadvantages of becoming a witch/wizard. Though you get to live to 250-300 years, they can only give birth to children with only witches. Also, the witches can only give birth to a single child every decade. So, obviously living long isn't all that good for people who like children a lot.

Enough said. Oreste is but only one of the countless witches and wizards that walk among the modern human population.

Aoife Silverwind changed?

This is one of the best things about planning. You get to redo and change whatever you feel isn't go enough during the planning process. For me, I am changing Aoife Silverwind's look because she's not seductive enough to be the character she is supposed to be. So, here's here new look.



I have to agree that she looks too old now. But, I can tweak the next drawing I draw to make her more seductive. This is just the basic sketch of how she looks like. Quite a beauty I must say. I don't know why but all I draw about her tends to have "danger" associated with them. It's probably her looks and the gun she's always carrying around...



These are by the way, the drawings that I did last night... :P

Tuesday, October 12, 2010

It's finally over. Freedom again.

Oh yeah. The exams are over and Kieran Chase is now alive. :P
So yeah. I still don't have the name for his bodyguard. I was think of some random names but they seem so weird to call. Anyways, I think that all is well for my studies. That's not the only good thing though. I can go on drawing manga for 24 hours a day!!! And even after such a long break I am surprised that my drawing skills haven't deteriorated that much after all.



Rawr!!! This is the mighty troll... not one you would like to come face to face with... I wouldn't... Looks like Kieran's in for a surprise if he's about to go fairy hunting. Fairies aren't all that small wingy thingies. They have fearsome trolls, fraie dragons, stupid(not discriminating) and ugly(also not discriminating) goblins, and the hateful, smelly and rude dwarfs.

That's not all of the fairies though. To find out more, stay tuned to Kieran Chase and his adventures in manga. :P
I'm still working on the plot. The names and the final piece will have to wait.

Saturday, October 9, 2010

It's almost over... wait a little longer.

Sorry Guys. It's been a real busy few weeks for me. I am placing my entire future on the two weeks alone. There's really so much at stake here. It's either I pass and continue or fail and never get the chance to do this again. So, I need to pass. With that said however, I seriously screwed up my General Paper. I just hope I can pass in the final tabulations.

Okays. So Masaru Takahashi is putting manga on hold for another 2 days. 2 DAYS!!! Then it's so back to manga, manga and more manga drawings. You can just wait to see a new drawing everyday. Though that point will stop once I get enough practice and move on to the names. I would still be posting the drawings when I am doing my names but just not into so much details. After the names I'll probably have to contact my editor to see if he likes the idea. I just hope he take a liking to it(if not I have to work on another idea and start drawing more sketches and names again...) That kinda sucks.

Thanks for viewing my art anyways. :)

The Fairy Race

While I try to study for the promos(promotional exams) now, I sometimes bring myself deep into the fantasy world of Kieran when I feel too saturated. Well, its not as if I would turn into a genius. Actually, I don't think I'll ever think like him. I would probably need a genius for reference. Hahas. Or, I could use a lot of materials for research. Either way, I will put this on hold at least until 3 weeks later.

A month would definitely be enough to complete the first draft.
Okays. More about the fairy race for now. Fairies are the general names given to the race itself. In actual fact, the race itself consists of many sub-groups. We have Fairies of course. They are the "supreme" race, but they are lacking in wings such that they have to use mechanical ones to make up for it. Pixies on the other hand have wings. But they have a small stature and a little shorter temper. We have goblins which are basically brainless reptiles that only like destruction, explosions and yup, you guessed it. Killing. Then we have Trolls which are creatures of the dampness and dark with immensely powerful strikes and venom oozing tusk that immobilizes the victim. Not a creature you want to face up front. Then we have Dragons. They are part fairy and part dinosaur(believe it or not). They are descendants of dinosaurs. They have been banished to the underlands of the seas and in the Artic. I shall not go into the details of the reason why they are banished(you will know in due time). Also, there is Centaurs or better know as Chiron(for the sake of this manga). Chirons are slightly smarter and are mostly introvert. Well, they are however very bad at combat(that's something different from centaurs). And we have the Dwarf. Always eating dirt, digesting it and out it goes from somewhere you don't want to know. A dwarf? Bad temper, bad breath, bad hygiene. Just run away when you see one.

These are technically the only races I am adding for chapters 1-10. I could add more to the chapters later.

Oh, and why are fairies the supreme races you asked? Well, they are the only ones that can control elemental magic. Air, Water, Fire, Earth. These are the basic four elements that they can control. Fairies that master air are usually good at flying(duh). Those adapt at water are usually good at healing. Those mastering fire are good at smelting. Earth, they are the ones that cause the earthquakes. Ha.

Even if the fairy can have slight control over some elements other than the main element, there are some that can master 2 elements though the toll of mastering 2 elements usually fry their brains literally(from the stress of controlling the massive power). It's said in the ancient text that NO ONE FAIRY CAN MASTER 2 ELEMENTS. But recently these patterns are showing. Is someone behind this? Or is this a natural occurrence? Or is it the resulting product of being exposed to radiation the humans have leaked over the years?

Down to the boring stuffs

Okays peeps, I've decided to have weekly postings just in case you have realised that I haven't been posting for a few days. Afterall, I did post once a day. But that's all in the past. And in the past, I did not have to worry about the up coming promos. So, in view of the promos, I should blog less and I should also(technically speaking) stop playing or surfing the net. But, you know, my body doesn't really listen to my logical thinking. Anyways, down to one posting a week at least for the next 4-6 weeks. That's still 6 posts. A lot eh? Nahs.

I knew you would say that. But, study time is study time. Sorry folks. You just have to bare with me. Besides, if I had a post everyday, Masaru Takahashi would have told his entire story on here and hardly anyone wants to look forward to the finished product. I am interested to know however if you guys read manga for the story or for the art?

Aoife Silverwind


Sorry. I was too tired yesterday to post anything. So, I shall post yesterday's post today. Okays. So this is the main Fairy character. I think her name should be Aoife. It means Life in Celtic language. She's the current only female in the Secret Protection, Retrieval, Intelligence and Technology Espionage Specialists(SPRITE). SPRITE is an organisation that deals with spying of human systems and the protection of the entire fairy race from the sight and detection of the human races because the council believes that if human know about the fairy race then they will bound to exploit the fairies.

Kieran Chase 2

So, let's talk about Kieran Chase. After all, he is the main character! Kieran Chase is born to a rich family. But his family is not the everyday rich people of Ireland. They are the chase family notorious and known to engage in illegal dealings until recently, the Chase family head, decided to engage in antiques trading. Because of his father's new enterprise, has Kieran been exposed to the antiques that piles up in his attic(among one is the scroll or stone slab that leads him to discover the existence of a new race). But, during one of his father's trip to Egypt, he went missing ever since then. Left at home is a lonely boy, his bodyguard and servant, and a lunatic mother who insists that his father is coming back "at night" and insists that Kieran is not himself.

Name: Kieran Chase
Gender: Male
Race: Human(dirt dwellers)
Abilities: Super-human brain, that's all he has. And good hands that hardly can fire a pistol properly?
Favorite Food: Caviar
Favorite Stone: Amethyst
Height: 145 cm
Age: 13
More About: Kieran Chase has an intellect that even baffles many psychologists around the globe. With an IQ of 198, much higher than the IQ of an average human. With this, he schemes and tries to earn money the "unconventional" way. At an age of 12, Kieran has written a program that transfer millions of euros from one bank account to his own(even deleting all traces of this being done). Designed a car model that is on sale in the automobile market. Written columns for psychology magazines. Have three patents to his name for program writing.

With him as your opponent, I would be much intimidated even if he is a defenseless little 12-year-old boy. His brains alone can make you suffer your entire life. My advice: Never offend geniuses like this, especially if they are evil geniuses.

Previous work: Gaia Eleven


This is un-submitted work! Because it's actually chapter two of Gaia Eleven(C) but since it came in fifth in the novice category, it is not even mentionable to be made pro. Well, it's a not bad first attempt anyways. I will get in the second time though!


I even forgot the names of the Main Characters! Can you believe it? It just goes to show how much I don't respect this work. Now I know. It's Yoshida(left) and Shirioku(right). Well, not the best work I do. It was actually much much easier to do this than the current work.


So, how did I come up with this ridiculous concept? I was chatting with my friend over a cup of coffee and bored, I decided to talk about the end of the world, 2012 and pollution(Yes, nothing else to talk about). So, he began giving weird theories that maybe god pities us and decide to give us a chance to "renew" the world instead of wiping everyone out, so 2012 will never happen. Hmmm. Maybe. But, it was weird and I like weird ideas! Ha!

Enjoy! This is the first page of Gaia Eleven!

Biometric safe vs Dwarf.


Okay, this is the biometric safe that I am talking about. I can't really tell you how to break it. But you could say its very very ingenius. It really works in real life too. The only thing is that you don't really have the acid at home to do this. Ha!
Okay guys, (I love saying this) DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!!!(after you read and learn about it in my manga)


And this is a smiling dwarf I am talking about.
Name: Pending(ideas welcomed)
Gender: Male
Race: Dwarf
Ability(ies): Digging, Stealing, Eating, Releasing large amounts of Flatulence.
Favorite Food: Clay
Favorite Stone: Gold, Diamond
Height: 110 cm
More About: Has been charged to prison for theft, impersonation, forgery and indecency(dwarf males tend to have indecent exposure because...let's just say they end products of the soil he eats must go somewhere, and that somewhere must be open for release?). But being charged and actually serving the sentence is different for him. He's sentenced to 120 years in jail and he's served 10 only. On account of escape, he is charged with another 70 years imprisonment. Well, a seasoned escape artist isn't he, escaping prison for a record of 26 times? Some profile he got there eh? But he isn't all that bad I guess. At least he has a funny and cheery character.(Dwarfs aren't always grumpy contrary to popular beliefs).

Stay Tuned for more information about the manga's progress and information on characters. I was thinking of having the title as: Kieran Chase, same way as Naruto does it. Lols.

Breaking safes.



Think a safe is safe for keeping your stuff? Hiding things from the hands of Kieran Chase? Well, even this safe is not "safe" from the hands of Kieran if he sets his mind on obtaining whatever is contained within.
Okay, so he can do it, but I can't. I don't have the know how to break a safe. Burning though it incinerates everything inside it(so its out of the question). Filling it with water and bombing it(to have added impact due to water pressure) fails epically because water leaks from it.(well if it does not leak then it might work). Then, there is breaking through it the old fashion way(hearing for clicks on 5 different combinations). Not the procedure you would like to take when given about 5 minutes to open it and escape now, would it? Okays, why not burn through the lock? Well, apparently there is a anti-break glass pad that when cracked or broken actually allows for the safe to be shut completely unless you have a key(which is another problem).

For Kieran and me it might be tricky to open the safe. But for the seasoned smiling dwarf of the fairy race, he can open all "human" safe. He's not clever enough to override Kieran's biometric safe though. Even though they are pretty easy to break through(for human technology ones). Ha.(I'll leave that to you to figure out).

Keeping something from the hands of others. Think again, nothing other that fairy technology can stump Kieran and Dwarf(name pending) and prevent them from attaining whatever they desire that is within the "safe".

Well, this is a preview to what is going to occur. Or it may not. But, trying to break into a house and a safe is rather thrilling and interesting if I would say.

Kieran Chase



Hi, it's almost midnight here. Not drawing. I'm just posting some works that I drew(last week?). Well, it's much easier to think in terms of an evil character scheming than to think in terms of a good person. Wonder if it reflects on me, but what the heck! This is Kieran. (means genius btw). The main character of the new manga I am drawing. Of course he is evil and plotting stuff for him is actually very fun! It's like having commit perfect crimes but without risk! Except, Kieran(tentative) is in actual danger. Hahas. Imagine me thinking deviously in the mindset of a 13 year old boy with IQ of 198. Wow! Of course, there are capacities to what I can think of(it's not very difficult if you put your mind to it). Clever stuff either pops up or don't. Even geniuses can't solve everything you know!

Angels?



One of the first few drawings after the main brain-stormed idea of angels and demons. Somehow or another, the angels are now "out-of-the-picture" while the fairies(supposedly descendants of fallen angels) shine in the limelight. Wow. What was I thinking?

More About Me!

Hi, Masaru Takahashi here. I'm a manga artist currently drawing manga(obviously), and a high school student too. I've drawn(and submitted) one manga titled: Gaia Eleven.

Now, I am working on the second project based on a fairy world beneath the thriving cities of the human population. What goes on in the manga? Well, I can't divulge the occurrences. You would just have to follow and see. I guess postings would be irregular due to the lack of time I have. But be assured that at least one art piece will be up every week(for I do draw in classes). Ha!

The title for this current art work is still unknown. Comment and tell me what's best!!! Thanks for the support!
