Totally obsessing with this cover art on Volume 10 of Kizuna ~ in other words someone put the hose down the rabbit hole and it's a bloody mudslide down here!!

Have decided on a head and body for Ranmaru (far right) and will paint the face and crop the rooted hair to suit.

I have spent WAY TOO MUCH time agonizing over 1/6 scale watches for Masanori (2nd from left) too....but I found his suit.

*did I mention that before??*

AND in other news volume 2 & 3 of Kizuna LUX arrived today along with volume 1 of Borders (her new series) and I got caught up with the story (as much as I can make out from the piccies ) and OMG the smexing!!! The additional story in the LUX additions has Ranmaru & Kei going crazy against a hotel window (ala Viewfinder) AND I am now convinced she is restarting (or rewriting) K2's stalled/mothballed Guns & Roses series into a more updated men & guns/ spring & autumn tale here! HOLY NOSEBLEED!

*snaps fingers together loudly in the direction of the scanilators*...come ON girls ~ faster faster!! >D

....dolls aside...Howthef**k am I going to create those four chairs?

*wanders off to the gym pondering papermache and things*

While I was eating the breakfast bowl of rice, I was bopping about online and in the way things usually happen for me, I stumbled onto the fact that Kodaka Kizuma's re-issue of Kizuna, vol. 2 (actually volume 3&4) is out, as is volume one of Borders AND Kizuna 3 (5&6) is available from Japanese booksellers for pre-order.

*falls to floor and wallows in imaginary goodness like a dog*

I hadn't mentioned here that I stumbled across the freshly released Lux version of Kizuna 1 (1&2) while in Kyoto, sheerly by chance when in a regular book store hunting down PBB 3 for tameiki...and it's a nice, fat, sexy volume I might add.

I'm such a K2 whore....I WILL have one copy of everything she puts out and *gurgles*...she's redrawn the covers AND an entire chapter. I can HARDLY wait to see what she does with Masa in volume 3 *reaches for drool towel*.

...and since I'm helpless in resisting the need to make BK1 purchase I picked up a hat making book too, in order to take advantage of the shipping.
