My schedule once again got the better of me, so this update it more delayed than I would have liked. Still, it's probably better than delaying any late updates like I usually am!

The first order of business is that fanlisting I promised last December. For this design, I thought I'd try something a little different, since my normal blends wouldn't have suited the design very well. And I've been missing green—I think it's showing. I used to hate green. I guess something changed somewhere along the line?

1. Gohou Drug (Legal Drug)
   One of my favorite CLAMP series publications, but was put to hiatus in 2003. This mystery series depicts Kudo Kazahaya and Himura Rikuo hard at work doing their part-time job at a drugstore. You can usually find them there, but sometimes they aren't around when you need them. See, they have a secret job, too. And that's where their story begins.

Fun fact: The manga has nothing to do with the marijuana used for this series. Not sure why CLAMP decided to associate the object with this, but it's probably due to the title name.

It's been a while since I actually updated anything, I apologize! The process lately have been slower than the usual, other than casually updating the fanlistings and cliques with new members. I'm trying my best on completing the next revamp I wanted to get done before the end of this month, but creating a design is always the most difficult part. This also applies to another site I plan to open soon. Since there isn't any actual deadlines set for this new project in particular, I want to take my time and enjoy it. In the meantime, I recently completed another fanlisting for you all!

1. Mangaka - General
   Also known as Manga Artist, falls under the broader career category of Fine Artists, Including Painters, Sculptors, and Illustrators. Unlike Western-style comics, manga from Japan are usually bound like a typical book, with hundreds of pages per volume primarily printed in black and white. Though there is a wide variety of drawing styles, the art in manga is usually much more finely detailed than Western comic books, and the content can be aimed at a variety of age groups, from young children to adults.

There is another subject I've applied for which hopefully be approved prior to my next update. 'Til then, hope everyone has a great week!

Following this year's roadmap, I have successfully completed a revamp for the BSSM: Sailor Moon/Sailor Chibi Moon fanlisting! A newly refreshed design is always the best feeling and sense of accomplishment, if you ask me. I'm happy with the way it turned out, even. I've also added in 75x50 and 100x50 codes that this subject needed for the longest time. I apologize about my laziness since I opened this fanlisting. Speaking of fanlisting, I couldn't help and apply to more subjects which I also got approved for. These are just a few of my favorites which to my surprise how no one applied to them in so long!

1. MARS - One of my classic masterpiece of manga I've read back in my teen years and I must argue that this series really stood the test of time. I decided to create a subtle design than my usual layouts I make. It still turned out fantastic, if I may say so myself!
2. Mario Kart series - From SNES, to N64, to Wii, to Switch, I played this game religiously! Mario Kart has been one of my favorite racing game and is still considered fun today. This layout was one of my most challenging design I had done as because I had to learn the rainbow CSS techniques. Additionally, this design required two images to seamlessly blend into one; thanks Aelyn for the guidance on the shadows, lighting, and movement effects! Otherwise, the characters from the background would seem out of place.
