Welcome :D

Let me show you some of my 4koma (about my life with cats).
Nao-p is my nick name my friend Mami Tachibana gave me. And I call her Mami-p. Of course it comes from Wedding Peach "Momo-p". No one calls me by the name except for her, but I love the 4 koma cartoon "Go Go Momo-pi (Gan-bare Momo-p)"(In the paperbacks) so I use it. :)
Oh, I'm a manga artist Nao Yazawa, and author of Wedding Peach, by the way. :)

These "comic strips" come from my 4-koma blog (in Japanese). You can see all of them in original here. If you have a request which 4koma will be next, tell me. :D

It's been almost 3 weeks since I posted it. 
They said SAL mail would take 1-3 weeks for delivery. 
So...I'm worried a bit now, the parcel is not delivered yet. 
...........things are going well?

Ustream

I have a YouTube channel, I've tried G+hangouts, and now, I'm on Ustream. All for our manga school, Mana School Nakano. It has no English page on their site so far, but yet still has the ambition to have Manga class in English for non-Japanese.

Nowadays, there are many tools to get reach people who live in overseas because of the web. You have many ways (and they are free, basically) to reach. The problem is, the school also but yet still has no IT person who works for. They think I know about PC and the web well (& handle English well) . A poor reality  -.-|||

Anyway, because I got an account of Ustream - although I'm not sure very much how to use and what you can,  use the account. I had 2 live stream without notice, means no audience.

It makes my PC slow, the tablet doesn't go smoothly, so I don't think I have a live stream during my work often, but sometimes - or when I draw fun drawings.

So...There is anyone who want to see it?

G+Hangouts 2

It was fun (funny), at least. XD

I'll give another try, check our FB page, https://www.facebook.com/MSN.English 
I'll post the notice, and information.

I draw this 4koma with Manga Studio, but this time I tried CLIP PAINT Lab.
...Manga Studio is better. CLIP PAINT is for painting (Although you can draw with it ), not drawing manga. ^^;;

Correction -Panel 2 "I've contined" means continued.
If only Manga Studio has a spell checker... XD

Drawing Manga Character videos / pencile

Short videos of pencil rough sketches.









I'd better off the background sound, maybe...it's trouble to add music. !Error, error, error", for some reason, I can't chose the title you take. >.<

Manga coloring video clips

Yokogawa-Charity-Arts & Crafts-Festival / 横川チャリティ・アート&クラフトフェスティバル

I drawn some arts for the festival, and took 5 video clips of the coloring process.
You can see what the coloring is like - in my case, with water color.
The videos are very long, might be boring and need some patience to watch all. But it is the real one, kind of live-drawing., I mean without editing ( just because I don't have the skill, you may say. Yes.)
Some parts are skipped (such as the backgrounds) , but you'll see and experience my coloring - kinda relive? Something like that, I think.

Hope it could entertain and help you.

P.S. I know there are very few people who watch all the videos. If you got it at once - let me know, I wonder if there is any person with such guts in the world. 

Here is the link of the finished drawings' photo.

Tools I used

These drawings will be sold at Yokogawa-Charity-Arts & Crafts-Festival (on 22, Apr.)
(SEED Art Laboratory ,Yokogawa, Hiroshima, Japan)



















The last video ends all of the sudden, because it reached the limit of iPhone. Sorry! ^^;;
