I joined two Ken ga Kimi projects with many lovely artists and authors I admire since i jump into this fandom. All character anthology and calendar!! \o/ They arrived safely so I decided to post a little bit info and my thought about it.
It's been both an honor and great pleasure to be participated in series which i spent my soul, blood, and tears whole year learning things. Swords, Japan feudal history, wafuku, and many uncapturable super-good-looking-sub-characters in one game. And I was certainly quite a burden;; since I live outside Japan and my japanese not so good;; yet I can not thank them enough for inviting me join these wonderful projects ;;/////;;
I will treasure this forever!!
On the main topic, here is some pics I took for the book and calendar. Since I'm aware I'm not good at wording I made it short. Please check the provided link for more information.

■Ken ga Kimi (All Character) Anthology "RIN"

I draw Tsuzuramaru, Kei, and Kayo as frontispiece \o/ it's on the first page, really, when you open the book you'll find my drawing (lol) the book is hella thick THIS IS THE REAL ANTHOLOGY
wait, did I say many authors I admire joined this project? yes they did
The cover design is superb, the contents are lovely (all pairs). I'm still struggling on reading novels btw ... It also came with 6 designs can mirror and 4 postcards as novelty!
■ Ken ga Kimi 2015 Calendar

Again, I can't thank them enough for their hospitality; despite the language barrier and my slow working pace. I submitted my entry on last minute like it's a habit I used my time to search references, thinking what kind of drawing suited wafuu theme, what's the story behind it etc etc and ended up with simple drawing .... ppfft
Please if you like Ken ga Kimi and have access to get these, please read it and it certainly will be a great pleasure to hear you enjoy our works; filled with feelings and hope that you love this series just as we do. Thank you very much! Ken ga Kimi vita port in few weeks are you ready \\o//
