Aesthetics and Circles

I am really interested in designs which lift up from the centre circle. They tend to be either rigid lightning like effects, or quite whimsical and delicate in nature. I don't mind either, but for this particular process I think I will lean towards the more striking and strong designs, since this is supposed to be a sealing to contain a very powerful demon.

So below are some of the effects I have come across which caught my eye. They all have rather similar circular visuals which, I feel would, encapsulate the circle and make it more of a visually exciting procedure. Each one is just slightly different, so i will work on combining them.

As for the circles using existing ones as reference and a starting point I have come up with multiple designs. I am not sure which will be included, nor which will be the final sealing design. I will test it when i have the pages it will be used for at least semi coloured. below are some of the designs I altered, improved and created.

Stoke Con Trent Review

Selling at Stoke-on-Trent is now my fourth convention to sell at, and although reasonably quiet still pulled a reasonable profit of £69.50. Surprisingly the thing that was most popular was a 7 postcard set of the BTS members which where £1 each or all 7 for £5. The deal seemed go down a treat, selling out of all prints including the display ones before we packed up. Other than that, two Haikyuu Kageyama A4 digital prints sold, plus several key rings and stickers. On previous experiences I had disagreeable table partners or have tabled on my own. This time around however, I ended up tabling with a friend of mine, whom will be my partner for comic con too. This was our practice set up and experiment on how we work together and i have to admit it went well! Other than her forgetting one or two things at the beginning and having to return home to get them, everything went according to plan. However this is what it was for, this is the time to make mistakes and learn from them. I fe...

Bone Rank System

I thought, since it is quite prominent in my story, that i would delve into the Korean Silla Dynasty's bone rank system to get a clear understanding of just what it means. The Bone Rank System, so called because it was based on a person’s hereditary bloodline, was introduced as part of a new law in 520 CE by king Beophung. However, GolPum system was technically abolished with the fall of Unified Silla in 935. This is the simplest diagram I could find which explained the kind of standing that people had, and how it corroborated with their title. First of, a Sunggol or 'Sacred Bone' They have to be directly related to royalty on BOTH sides of their parents. Up until King Muyeol, only a Sunggol could ascend to the throne. It was due to the lack of an adequate male Sunggol which made it possible for both Queen Seon Duk and Queen Jindeok to ascend to the throne. They were the last of the Sunggols. Jingol 진골 also known as “True Bone” refers to som...

Story Ideas

Possible Story Ideas: Atsuhito and hideyo in his dream limbo. For the next step in my project I am going to look into several ideas to what my manga could follow. As it is going to be at comic con mcm, I did some research on the types of groups and fans that will be there, so I can tailor my comic around their favourite genres. These turned out to be Sci-fi, Fantasy, Horror and Romance. I doubt I will be able to incorporate Sci-fi, but the others are achievable. The first idea up is: '60 Day Secret' Above is my sketchbook page showing my possible directions that the story could take, but also how it links back to my theme of fantasy. The basic plot goes along the lines of a notebook having magical properties, but unbeknown to the user, the magic has a time limit and cannot be extended. I also looked into the kind of style i might want to move into. Its moving away from my usual style, but I think it would be an interesting change for me. Below show...
