As i'm tied-up getting some commissions done i thought i would post some stuff from my dA gallery this week - some fractals, fantasy art, op-art, fine-art, illustrations etc....i'll move all non-anthro art to my scaps in a few days after posting....sorry for delay on new anthro pics...soon....
...and another pin-up sort of thingy for tonight...
Like the Ororo peice, this was just joking with a character's sexiness.
Lum from the manga and anime Urusai Yatsura was the slightly ditzy but devoted alien princess bride to stupid lecherous earth kid Ataru...Lum's devotion eventually won you over that maybe there was something good in Ataru...
The "Beautiful Dreamer" movie is a must see...surreal scenes, and all that, and a crucial scene where the dream Lum tells Ataru what really makes sense...
No disrespect to Takahashi intended here at all. She is my favorite comic book artist, and she played with Lum's sexuality throughout the series...
Watercolour Markers, approx 12x18 circa '94

i love almost everything Rumiko Takahashi does! Urusei Yatsura was one of the first handful of mangas to be translated into English. The first episode of the anime i saw was a comi-con or confurance - it was ep 79 "The House of Mendou - Summer Xmas" - in Japanese, no subtitles, and everyone couldn't stop laughing - just so nuts....
AFAIK all the episodes are up on youtube, possibly the OAVs as well.
Here's general info for anyone interested:

And an episode guide! :

Proud to say that I have seen all tv and OAV episodes of Urusei Yatsura (196 tv half hours and 10 OAVs), Maison Ikkoku (96 half hours and one OAV), and Ranma 1/2 (125 half hours and 10 OAV shows, I think)!
The UY episode that had me hooked was "Pitter Patter Christmas Eve"...a mix of slapstick comedy and touching emotional scenes. Loved Lum every since.

I started watching UY with the Animeigo VHS tape volumes (4 episodes per tape). There was a long gap from Volume 25 to the release of Volumes 26 to 49 on DVD more than 10 years later. Had watched the Ranma and Maison Ikkoku series in the middle during that gap.
I live near a large Chinatown area and attended a few local comic book conventions where some bootleg Japanese anime DVDs or fansubs were sold with crummy English subtitles (but understandable) at cut-rate prices. When Viz Video released Ranma and Maison Ikkoku on legit DVDs, I completed viewing both series to the end.
I was lucky to land a lucrative full-time job that lasted more that 12 years at that time to afford to purchase those legit DVD and VHS volumes.
