Ever since I took part in 🐻OTABESCENCE 🐻last year, I thought it would have been great if I could return the favour and create an English version of the anthology ✨
When I received the confirmation that I’ll have a table at the London MCM Comic Con on the last weekend of October (25-26-27), I thought “This is a sign!” ✨
I got in touch with one of the organisers of Otabescence (Matsuo) and I proposed them the idea. They forwarded it to the Japanese artists who were part of the original project, and some of them agreed to join! ✨
So here we humbly present you:
BEKASTAN is a comic zine anthology & collaboration between Japanese & overseas artists celebrating the birthday and the adolescence of Otabek Altin, the Hero of Kazakhstan! 🇰🇿 ⛸️✨
🐻 What you can expect from the comics in this zine:
Pre-orders are now open on my store for my second Otayuri R18 doujin, ‘Office Hours’, a college AU! Pre-orders will run until the 30th, and should be shipped sometime around mid to late July. The doujins are 48 pages, B5 size, and perfect bound, and will cost $20 dollars (I do ship internationally!)
I've been working month to month for awhile on an Otayuri au doujin on my Patreon, and I finally finished! Thank you so much to all my patrons support throughout <3 There will be a print version of it, and this will be the cover -- and if you couldn't guess, yes, it is a college au 🙈
Holy crap your artstyle is gorgeous ! Your use of colour is just beautiful Do you do commissions? If so what are your rates
Thank you so much! That’s so sweet of you! I currently don’t have commissions open, I was hoping to reopen them soon but other deadlines and things have piled up for me at the moment so I never got around to reopening them. Hopefully I can soon though once I feel I have a little extra time so I can properly devote to doing commissions well
About how long does it take to make each of your artworks?
It really varies on piece to piece! Some I can do in like 3-4 hours, I think most take take about 6-8, and some can take me a day, lol. It really depends on how complex it is, what my level of focus is (not getting distracted by youtube lol), and just my general headspace (some days things just work the first time, some it’s like pulling teeth but eventually I can make it work!) I feel I’m on the slower side for an artist tbh lol
So, uh Hey! There's something that I want to ask you It's about your art and your mafia au So, there's a fanfic in portuguese that has your art as header and I want to know if you already knew it(?) I'll send you a link if you want to, and maybe translate to you 'Cause that shit is awesome (but only if the author let me do it to you) And there's a chapter named: not a saint, but do I have to be? And here it comes another question Do you like Børns? ;3
Hey! I don’t allow my art to be reposted, so if this fanfic has used my art as a header, I have not allowed it and they did not have my permission to use it.
I have been following you forever because of your mafia au (which is amazing and I love) and I have to tell you that everytime I hear "Downtown" by Allie X, I instantly think of it. It's such a perfect fit.
omfg THANK YOU FOR THIS SONG sldkjfkdls I love it so much
