INTRODUCTION From the beginning, this blog a log of my project (a Disney Exhibition) during high school cars 2 the video game and after that I started instead to write about my own personal artwork. The idea was then that I would only write about my personal art and not "fan art" (images based on other people's characters and stories). cars 2 the video game However, I have taken with personal interpretations. But lately I have been thinking about. A huge part of all my inspiration actually comes from movies, books and comics and I would think that about 50% of all the pictures I finalize is fanart. Although I have not found myself on the characters cars 2 the video game I draw when I do fanart, it's crazy fun and educational! So I will now also include fanart in my art blog and I will preface this by doing a series of posts on the subject I made the most fanart with throughout my life, namely cars 2 the video game manganese and anime:
"Silver Fang" ("Ginga Nagareboshi Gin" in Japanese) When Silver cars 2 the video game Fang is such a big topic for me but many different parts, I will divide this little "series" of posts in various parts such as merchandice, how my interest began and of course my Silver Fang-fanart!
I knew early on that it produced a lot of merchandice (collectables) based on this manganese / anime and some of those first stuff I discovered was including special book "Meteor Gin" stickers and the first manga release.
"1st manga release from the 80s" The first few years I owned no own merchandice, I had not even films. Every time we (I and my buddies Lotta, Sanna and Sabina cars 2 the video game nördade this anime together) would look at Silver Fang so we rented them from a small movie rental store in Eskilstuna who at this time had an offer involving cars 2 the video game certain selected films that were marked with a four-leaf clover and the offer applied when the "four cars 2 the video game films, 4 days, 44 crowns"! This suited us just fine because the Silver cars 2 the video game Fang consisted of just four films (cut and dubbed cars 2 the video game version, of course) who were all marked with these four-leaf cars 2 the video game clover!
The first Silver Fang-stuff I bought, I bought together with Lotta, cars 2 the video game Sanna and Sabina. It was the first four volumes out of the 2nd manga release, Ginga Densetsu Weed (sequel) volume 1-3 in English (the only officially translated into English) and volume 4-10 in Japanese cars 2 the video game and also another manga by Yoshihiro Takahashi called "Byakuren no Fangu"!
"Byakuren no Fangu" These purchases were my first "real" contact with manganese. I had seen a lot of pictures on the internet but never had a physical paperback in my hands, but interconnected series of pages and I clearly remember how we all four sat on the sofa at home with Lotta and leafed through the books, cars 2 the video game constant proclamation of joy and ecstasy when we flipped through pages that formed the basis for the anime we nördat so long. This is several years ago (around cars 2 the video game 2003 to 2004 I guess) and then it took a few years before we continued our collective individual (the others probably started buying things slightly earlier than me, I think, a lot because of that I've always been a bit hesitant buying cars 2 the video game from online, which is almost a must if you want to buy Silver Fang-merch.) It was not until around 2008 that I continued gathering and this was mainly thanks to the Swedish webshop "Futagoshop" (thanks for being there! <3 <3)! My "collection" consisted only out a few bookmark tickers, a figure (Sniper, from GDW-anime), a collector card and a magnet.
Since I was at this time still in high school, I had only my student grant as income, which is not sufficient far in the geeky merch world, so it was only a few things cars 2 the video game at times and then never a sum greater than 600 crowns.
But recently, around 2011-2012, when I started to get a little more work I started collecting more actively. Absolutely not, so I spend everything I earn on Silver Fang-stuff, but more than before! And today, I own a fairly cars 2 the video game large collection (think will at least myself) with several little more rare unbleached cars 2 the video game such as some of those first plastic figures from the 80s, a VHS from the first Swedish edition, a vinyl record, a number out of Shounen Jump by Silver Fang yo and 5 film cells.
"Print" "Shounen Jump with Silver Fang wrapper" "Figures from the 80s" "3 cars 2 the video game out of my film cells" "My Silver Fang-shelf! (Which by the way not hold all things anymore when it gets too crowded, so cells, cars 2 the video game Stickers , trading cards, magnets, and some other odds and gone may unfortunately not place.) "
Hi and Ho, much stuff it gets! I am so full of laughter when I think of how many classmates in elementary school several times told me that "you do not think you will tire of the movies when you get older?" and how I responded that "never in life, the Silver Fang is the best, no matter if I'm child or adult! there are adults also who like Silver Fang!". They gave me a skeptical look and said little tentative that "But it's probably a bit weird in the head then, Tessan ..."
