Headphone Girls
Think I first saw this on Akiba Blog and instantly thought "Mu! Must have!" from seeing all the lovely 2D girls inside.

The Headphone Girls Pictorial features the illustrations of 52 well known illustrators including INO and Range Murata.

I think I can now bring myself to pay the 5000 yen or so needed to get some for my daughters - these ones from the Doll Show in November.

The book features detailed reviews of headphones that are available on the market by many different manufacturers - with each one illustrated being worn by a cute 2D girlie.

Looks like a great collaboration piece to me - the makers probably pay for placements and the publisher sends pics of approved headphones to an illustrator. Illustrators are usually paid a flat fee for a single piece.
Artwork done for a specific purpose is called Kaki-oroshi [描き下し].
In my line of work (now and at Microsoft), I've seen rates for a single illustration ranging from 5000 yen (50 USD) to 100,000 yen (1000 USD).
I know there are many DC readers who do illustrations. Do you make pocket money from your work or make a living from it?

This is my fave girl in the book. Looks like Mio-chan. Gorgeous eyes. Will probably cut this leaf out and stick it on the wall.
How many of you put up posters? When I was a wee lad, I had a couple of posters up ^^;

The book also contains some manga too.
Currently available at J-List for 32 USD.

Speaking of Zettai Ryouiki, J-list have this rather stylist T-shirt available for those who want to express how much they like that zone between where the stockings end and the bottom of the skirt starts.
Available now for 18.95 USD.
If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.
If you don't have much time now, maybe subscribe to the RSS Feed, Twitter Feed or join the other readers in the FaceBook Page.
Alternatively, you may want to read more about the site.
If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

And those dollfie headphones are adorable! I want a pair for my daughter, too!

Wow that's a nice book .
actually i am interested in buying headphone , but i don't know which one should i buy .
i am about to choose audio technica or bose .
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
Go Audio Technica, Bose really aren't worth what you pay for them.
Medical School Student
http://xilvan.wordpress.com/
yeah the quality of bose is good but it is over priced ,
which audio technica is the recommended one ?
depends on what type of music u listen to.. the 900 series is a good buy for the money and choice f open or closed. but again really depends on what type of music u listen to. have a look at www.head-fi.org
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
Honestly Audio Technica isn't really my area of expertise... but I've a few friends with them and they're very happy. One has the SQ5s, which seemed pretty good when I tried them and another with ATH-A700s that he's also happy with... Two more also use ATs (can't remember what models though) that they're very happy with but really it all depends on how much you have to spend and, as dannywan said: what sort of music you listen to and what you find pleasurable to listen to.
For example: I've got a friend with HD600's which are a great headphone, but a little to veiled for me. What I like are ethereal sounding mids and highs, wide open sound stages, sharp attacks and really transparent music. However others I know are bass monsters and so on.

What headphone you go with really depends on what your price range is.
You can't go wrong with a Sennheiser HD650 though.

I saw this book for sale at the Kinokuniya I go to, and damn they overprice it there :(
It's $40 AUD.

http://www.furudango.com
It's 5000 yen, meaning over au$50 =o so $40 is actually cheaper, a bargain really, bought the Hanakimi artbook for about $50 and was thinking of buying the Hikaru no Go book a while back and it was about au$90 when I checked.
Student
http://foxkey.blog126.fc2.com/
It is 1800 yen. I'll probably pick it up from Amazon.
http://xcomprandomness.co.uk/
Second picture looks painful... Looks like a giant black thorn's struck its way through the girl's head ^^;
Other than that, nice renders. If they made an Anime/Manga about headphones, I wouldn't be surprised if there was suddenly a burst of interest in sound equipment. Then it can slip in the odd facts like type, frequency response, sound-to-noise ratio, impedance etc...
Design Student
http://wraith11.deviantart.com/
Haha, suddenly I'm again wishing I had the cash to drop on another headphone upgrade.
Would love to pick up that book, but that would be money away from Japan trip/new camera/new cans.
As for making cash off drawing, I make a little here and there (pocket money)... but generally it's more for design/graphic design work rather than actual illustration.
...that was a very money centric comment.

I never understood the fascination for girls wearing headphones. Somehow I find it something which makes the picture worse than if they had been without those. Another thing, I don't like headphones in general. They feel uncomfortable, specially in the ears after a while. Not due to loud sounds, but the reaction to "closing" the airflow around the ears. I bought some high quality ones in an instrument store and they are sort of ok for when I can't do without any, but anything else... just not me ^^

The book's interesting. I may ask Kinokuniya to import one for me.
Currently I'm using Ultimate Ears Super Fi 3 which I think it's the best in-ear earphones in its price range. Good attenuation and very comfortable to wear. The sound is great and you can change the cable by yourself if you break it or accidentally cut it. (Someone I know cut his Shure in-ear headphone cable instead of the paper.)

The artbook looks really nice, but for some reason, I'd rather buy a digital copy if they allowed it.
