Hey guys!

So, it's been a long weekend with assignments due, hanging with buds, watching japanese dramas, listening to music, and participating in a collaborative project between the Lily Bunka Academy in Japan and us here at The Academy in Cali. It was a great weekend and I made some really good friends that I hope to keep in touch with (and not just to practice my Japanese). But, now, it's time to get back to business and keep up the good momentum that I have with get my assignments in on time and completed.

Speaking of good momentum, some of you may have noticed or may have talked to me recently, and I pleased to announce the start of my long awaited comic series, Soda Pop! I won't tell details, but I will try to post certain panels and what not here on dA for your viewing pleasure. HOWEVER, due to friends and colleagues having issues with peeps stealing artworks from others, I will NOT be posting full pages here. I'm actually going to try to get it published instead. It will be a standard 300 page manga for us here in the states and, hopefully, a standard volume for those of you in Japan. I'd like to see this project get off the ground and I would like to ask all of you to give honest opinions on each promo that I do for you guys here. If you cannot leave critiques, then leave a comment stating what's good and what's not and what I'd need to fix. I'm not going to put too much of a limit on how long each comment can be (seeing as I don't get 200 of them a day like some of the other awsm guys here), but be reasonable. Don't make it an 8-page long essay. Just be frank. Thank you.

Well, now that you know what's gonna be going down here soon, I hope you enjoy the story and artwork. I appreciate every one of you that has liked my stuff up until this point and I hope you continue to enjoy my characters as much as I do.

A demain!
