Hm, I don't know if it's just me, since I don't much care for manga/anime style in the first place, but if I DID...
...with a cover like this, it sure doesn't inspire me into the
author's ability to draw manga in the FIRST place...

That girl's face is going to give me nightmares for a WEEK.

Your time is far too precious to make your work as presentable as possible!"

Date: 17 Sep 2006 09:32 pm (UTC)The "nose" was a teenytiny "v" on the book itself - the artefacts in that .jpg made it into a blur - but yes, the flatness was what struck me as particularly scary. That and the HUGE OH GOD SO FRICKIN' ENORMOUS HUGE EYES and tiny little mouth.
