The cover is split, cause half is Japanese, and the other half is the english version. And the theme was: video game characters in a video game university. 100% created by me.
I can't remember exactly what this project was for: definitely something to do with my undergrad thesis, if not the thesis itself. The reason I can't remember, is cause All the coloring, text, and layout was done AFTER I graduated. I sent copies to a few select people (some folks I befriended while living in japan, my Japanese teacher who wrote my recommendation for a full year rather than the 6 months I initially asked them for, and a teacher who encouraged me.), and I remember writing the handwritten letters (some in english, some in Japanese) while sitting in my SVA departments comp room.
Oh, and I sold ONE copy at my first con table at NY comic con. I recall cause the buyer was some guy who had his friend with him, and when I offered to sign it, I wrote: "rock out with your cock out". They giggled at that. And I only had the one, cause I didn't like the print. (lulu.com: After 3-4 different failed attempts on their part, I wrote them off completely).
Looking at it now...it's....it *BLEGH*. But it is my history, and I can't fault it for that. And so I share with you all.
Enjoy Student fydbac's glory!
