12 Days of Christmas: Interviews with VN Characters

#1 Post by Dreamgazer »

Hello, everyone!

I thought it might interest the VN community to know that my War: 13th Day cast will be conducting interviews with characters from other English visual novels.

The 1st Day is up! Just click on the image and you'll be taken straight to the post.

The interviewers will be introducing themselves and explaining what the series is all about. They'll also accept any and all questions you have for them. They'll answer on the 12th day. I gave ways to contact me in the post, but you can also comment in this thread or send me a message.

I'll be back tomorrow with the first interview. Hope you're looking forward to it! Have a Merry Christmas. ♥

Feel free to comment with your thoughts!
On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...

Your art-style reminds me of a time before time, when machines spoke a strange version of machine code. Whats your source of inspiration?

Anime. It sounds like the obvious answer, but I don't really have a more profound one for you. I wasn't even basing my work off any particular anime.

I adore Clamp's old style (found in X/1999 and Magical Knight Rayearth). At the same time, I'm also fond of newer looks found in, say, Code Geass and Accel World. I'm a big fan of Type-Moon works and Higurashi, but I wasn't trying to emulate their style unless I did unintentionally.

In Wildfire's case (the freckled blonde on the right), I have a feeling I was subconsciously influenced by the cartoon, Kim Possible, which I watched when I was younger, while with Ambrosia (on the left), I might have been influenced by Kotonoha from School Days.

Regardless, I simply came up with a particular idea in my head, executed it, and this is the result, for better or for worse.

At any rate, I hope the old-fashioned feeling doesn't turn you off from the artwork! (By the way, was that question meant to be for the cast? I assume it wasn't since they would have been totally confused, but if it is, I can still make them respond. And they'll be totally confused. :D Because they can't help it. They're just drawn that way.)

Hi, Bianchii! Aww, thanks so much. I'm glad you like it. If you have any other thoughts or opinions while you're reading it, feel free to send it my way. I'm always curious to know what people make of it. Doesn't matter how late!
