Even some of the big guys get star struck sometimes. I think he's said that he always likes the newest stuff the best which is true for most artists. |
That liking the newer stuff best, is generally true for me. My favorites are the ones I haven't done yet.
My favorite work is always the NEXT one.

No, I knew what the humor of his post was.
I was fucking with him by mentioning the Adam Hughes cover first.
But then I mentioned his.

Question: How much context is in the choice of borders, textures? I know that Japanese culture has different assosiations with colors than western cultures (White for mourning etc), is there meaning, emotional content in the color palates, texture choices, artifacts etc which I, as a relatively ignorant Gaijin am completely unaware?
If so, I'd buy a readers guide.
Thanks |

Hello.
I don't know if this has ever been asked before (because I think I'm still pretty new to this place), but who would you cast as Kabuki, and the rest of the characters?
...and no, you can't choose me.  _________________

I do put a large degree of consideration into all of those decisions. Including the color meaning from Japanese literature, and even the color associative meanings from alchemic code, as well as color psychology.
As far as Japanese sybology, there is quite a bit of it layered into the story.
The afteword in Kabuki Circle of Blood by Takashi Hattori goes into a bit of Japanese perspective on some of the subject matter and symbols and icons congruent with Japanese mythology.
I think the one in Dreams may do this a bit too.
It would be fun to have a guide or Kabuki companion book to discuss some of the things that aren't called attention to. |
