I gotta say with a lineup of characters that look this excellent that manga of yours is bound to be hit. I like the way you were able to get them all worked in like that. I must say that I am deeply impressed.
:o
is this the manga cover? i can see the title stuck in the middle vertically..
i don't think you ever gave a description of what the story itself was about :3
also, don't overdo it when it comes to character designs, I can see you're writing about a school, but for every character (especially the schoolkids), you should have a biography or a character buildup of some sort, dont just slap on an eyecolor, a hairstyle, and a height and let them roam around your story, that isn't very nice. and and, good luck on your manga! :D

I only suck at coloring because i chose to do that

I do commissions and stuff. Come help a poor kid out.
no, not the cover. its just art to show the progression of the story. its probably too busy for a cover, eh?
the thing about import grove is that i didnt just want to make a beat-em-up-high-school manga. all the characters will go through a transition throughout the story. one way to easily convey that is by appearance, so i pimp 'em out :D. for instance, Itsuke is displayed in his most extreme and developed state whereas Kurai is displayed as he is at the beginning of the series. thanks for your opinions!
thanks! ill try real hard to keep it interesting
Tj.......god you're hot. this is just too damn sexy, holy geez.
