Hello IDW, my name is Shaun and I just wanted to show you guys a new comic that I've been working on and get some feedback. Not to mention that I love Initial D; I have all of the manga along with a couple of the battle stage movies + the live action. Thought it would be a good fit lol. But anyway, I'm just trying to get the word out about my book and generate interest...I do everything on it, so I figure doing all of the p.r. work would only be fitting too. The book is about a girl who loses her memory and has to travel across country to find out who she is. Did I mention that she's also a D1 drifter and SCCA racer? lol. It has has pretty much all forms of racing in it, and all forms of cars; JDM, euro, american. So I just wanted to come and say hello and let you guys know about this; honestly, I'll be sticking around because I love Initial D, too, so you can be sure to see me as a regular. Please feel free to ask me any questions you want about the book, or anything art-related, I like to help out where I can. If you're interested in it, you can check out the blog in my sig for it to get more info. Hope to hear from you guys soon!

Here's the first "teaser" print for the book:

Thanks everyone!
Shaun

but dont mind me

Interesting art style. Different from the manga I'm used to.
At any rate, you're great at what you do, so I look foward to your first release! grin2.gif

I'll be excited to see this. Just keep it a "car comic" to an extent. Misfile used to be a great car comic but the last time it had anything to do with cars was like two years ago. Now it's all stupid catty arguing girl-on-the-rag bull****.

Can't wait to see progress here!

The plot premise does sound rather. . . . . . But I'm very interested in this comic of yours. Your realistic art style is quite good too.

Thanks for all of the kind words! I hope to keep up the good work ...

Sensation!: Thank you! I never thought about the Korean MMO though...every time I think of one, it's always either Kal or Silkroad! haha

ryosuke63: Thanks! I'll try not to make you wait too long!

Gunma's 34: Thank you! The Z is the main car, but the car list goes on and on...I hope not to disappoint with it

Bubs: Thanks! There won't be a lot of girl on the rag cattiness, I can promise you that...To me, the cars are right up there with the main characters; there will be a lot of different car racing going on-drifting, SCCA, street racing; it is even going to extend to sport bikes, and there will be some races with those, too.

Meteor: Thank you for the compliment! I hope the story won't be too lame; I have a lot of fun things planned, and it should be a fun ride!

Guate in evoV: Thanks! Like I said, I hope to not make you guys wait long!

Boost1995: Thank you for the compliments!

Just as a heads up, I am selling a copy of the picture for $25 shipped; it's 11x17 and limited to 200 copies. Not trying to spam, I'm just broke lol.

Thanks for all the kind words, I'll update you guys with more soon!

Hey guys I just wanted to let you know that there are some new pages up on the blog, and there are some WIP shots, too. Oh, and if anyone wants any Initial D fanwork done, I'm up for that, too. I haven't drawn the gang in awhile, so yeah....I'm up for that lol. grin2.gif

Thank you for all of the kind words!

Meteor: Thank you! That's what I've spent too much time studying, looking at how the light reacts to the cars and all that lol....I will say this, though; cars are WAAAAY easier that a sportbike...that second poster is taking forever haha

twitchykun: Thanks! I hope that it will be worth the wait! grin2.gif
