Well, it’s not really a “competition” as such, since I’m not going to judge the entries or give out prizes or anything like that ^^;

Basically this is just a fun little project for any artists out there who want to show off their coloring skills and promote their work! All submissions will be posted here after the end of the competition. You can also include a short message with your submission either promoting yourself or discussing the picture, as well as a link to your art site.

Specifics:

Entries must be submitted by email to: nekokun@nekoshota.com
Submissions close Friday 15th October.

Your email needs to include your colored image as an attachment, as well as the name you would like your work to be displayed under.

You may also include a short message of 100 words or less to be posted along with your image, as well as a link to your Deviantart/yGallery/Art Site/etc if you’d like people to be able to find more of your work.

If you have any other questions, you can either ask them here or email me at the address listed above ^^
Have fun! I can’t wait to see what you guys come up with!

Sorry again for the lack of updates! Life has been being a bit of a bitch lately, and the Final Fantasy 14 beta has been stealing pretty much all of my free time since it started at the beginning of the month ^^;

The beta is over now, but the actual game opens really really soon! If anyone else out there is planning to play it, I’m going to be on Lindblum server as “Neko Kun”, so leave your character name here or send me a message in game and we can hang out or chat or something :3

For anyone who’s thinking about playing it, here’s the latest shiny trailer:

And this here is the whole reason I’m playing the game: Lalafells. They’re basically the loli/shota race of the game, and damn addictive to play as. For extra cuteness, watch this video full screen and in 720p if you can ^^

Oh, and here’s a bunch of screencaps of my character, “Neko Kun”.
Just because he’s cute, and I really wanna him show off xD

Again, sorry for the lack of updates! I should have said something sooner, instead of leaving it for like 3 weeks without posting anything ^^;

I’m really behind on all of my translations (which sucks, I know T_T), so I think I might actually have to switch my focus back to posting raw doujins, since I have millions of them and they’re not much trouble to upload and post. With Final Fantasy 14 just around the corner, I probably won’t be spending much time translating over the next few weeks either ;_;

First thing’s first though, I’m planning on running a kind of coloring-in competition on the site, which should hopefully be pretty fun! It’ll start in the next few days, so keep an eye out for it ^^

Now, before I say anything else about this book, I need to make it clear:

This book contains rape!

Lots and lots of rape. Much more rape than I thought it had when I first started working on it. But hey, it was a Summer Wars doujinshi by NemuNemu! There’s no way I could say no to that combination xD

I’d also like to throw out a special mention to a couple of people that helped make this release what it is. Firstly to UchoFan1, for scanning this awesome book and sharing it with us in the first place, and secondly to Hany, for merging the pages together so beautifully and uncensoring all the naughty bits! This book is a little unique, in that the story is actually drawn over a series of two-page spreads. It’s wonderful that we’re able to see it the way the artist intended, so thank you Ucho and Hany!

Anyway, please enjoy this new Summer Wars translation!
I hope it isn’t too big of a shock after my last two cute translations

And here’s the sequel to Tachinami Takajin – Brother x3!!
I hope you all liked part 1?

I won’t say too much about this chapter as I don’t want to spoil anything, but I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by what happens xD

There are no more chapters to this story that I’m aware of… but if something turns up, I’ll definitely let you guys know O.O

As always, I hope you enjoy being able to read this little treasure in English ^^

New translation! And a damn cute one too

It’s been so long since I released a purely cute doujinshi! No sex in this one, but I dare you not to fall in love with the shota character. Or laugh at the older brothers xD

I would have released this translation a lot sooner, but I wanted to wait until I’d finished the sequel as well. You can look forward to reading part two on Monday!
I really love this story, so I hope you guys enjoy it

So it looks like the people running the site for the new Pico game have decided to deny access to all non-Japanese IP addresses. Luckily, we can get around this easily by using a Japanese proxy.

First, go to:
http://www.ijapan.org/blue

Then type in the Pico game address (http://www.tinkorbell.cc) and click go ^^

Thanks UchoFan1 for recommending the proxy site!

The website for the new Pico game is finally up, including the release date for the game: 15th October 2010

You can also download the first episode of the new podcast called “Pico to Chico: Shota Idol no Oshigoto Countdown Radio“, where the voice actress for Pico and the producer discuss the game (in Japanese), and Pico sings a song.

And here’s the site loaded through Google Translate, for people who want a rough English translation of it:

Edit: The top page seems to have gone down… It was working a little while ago, so hopefully they’re just updating it or something and it’ll be back up soon >.>

Edit 2: See this post.

Another image translation, this time by a pixiv artist called “@@@”

Gotta love Kazuma from Summer Wars

Oh, and if you haven’t actually seen Summer Wars yet, go do it now!! XD

Here’s a cute Len image that I translated a few weeks ago ^^
I think his sleeping face has got to be my favorite xD

Hany, the brilliant editor/uncensor artist behind most of my translation projects, has decided to try his hand at making some photoshop tutorials to help people improve their skills. Tutorial #1 covers basic photoshop tools as well as avatar/signature creation, but if enough people are interested then he’s thinking of making some more advanced ones too. Anyway, I’ll let him explain:

This tutorial gives a small introduction to various image techniques. It’s dedicated to Photoshop, but can also be applied to TheGimp (which is totally free). In this tutorial, you will learn the basics of layers, transformation, selection, and how to apply them to make your own avatar and signature. In addition of the tutorial, there are also some example files, in Photoshop format. Don’t hesitate to have a look if you are lost.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me in the comments section of this post. And if you like this tutorial, please don’t hesitate to say it ^^.

The next tutorial will be on one of the following subjects:
- Advanced techniques for Avatars/Signatures
- Coloring a black&white manga page
- Redrawing/Uncensoring techniques

I don’t know which one you guys are interested in, so feel free to post your opinions here.

Enjoy ~~

Hany.
