Shinama Fumikane sensei's new illustration book "Shimada Fumikane Artworks" just came out and Akibablog has more pics of the pantsu and overview of whats inside. Want.

So far I have a few illustrators books including from INO, Happobijin and Pink Chu Chu. INO in particular is so talented.

The illustration books help me in particular when thinking of new poses for the Suenaga sisters.

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.

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.

      Bk1 seems to have it: http://www.bk1.jp/product/03056444 That's the shop I usually use for buying Japanese manga and books. I think their prices are the Japanese retail prices (minus taxes for foreign orders?) and they don't charge anything extra for the shipping, only the actual shipping costs.

    I'd have to agree on INO's talent. Truly a master of masters.

    Besides Velvet Skin, I have Sigma and Phai from Satoshi Urushihara, MINE BLUE from Mine Yoshizaki, Sweet Dreams and Wild Flower from Shunya Yamashita, Kaen II from Noizi Ito and a small collection of work from POP.

    I didn't know this was out yet. Fumikane art is serious DO WANT material.

        I'm sure amazon has it as well, but they have a pretty steep flat charge for the first item, then it's $3 for each extra item... Only nice when ordering lots of stuff...

          Honestly dont remember their usual charge, and they haven't charged for this one yet so I can't check (they take all your outstanding ordered items into a big pile, and send them all out at once depending on wheter you selected send one-by-one or as a group) - but they only use EMS or int'l shipping, so it wouldnt be exactly cheap

    Very nice, I want it too.

    I have lots of illustration books, aka Artbooks.
    Couple of years ago, when I went to Japan, I was still not into figures.
    So what I did was fill 3 boxes with artbooks and ship it by sea to Brazil. :P Cost me a fortune, but way less what it would've been if I had bought them in Brazil.

    Still, there were lots of books in my list I couldn't find....

    Looks fantastic - I might add that to my shopping list for the next trip to Japan. How much be it? I originally baulked at the cost of some of these things but seeing the quality is slowing changing my opinion. It also looks rather inspirational for some new artwork to practice...
