My character mascot designs for Otaku News, a daily news site with articles covering Japanese culture, music, anime/manga, events and weird findings.

Miyuki and Hakubo are chilling in a Japanese restaurant, having delicious naruto ramen and freshly prepared sushi for lunch. The nihongo translates to 'Japanese food is delicious!' - I just hope it's written correctly in Japanese, I double checked with a few native-speakers afterall XD'

This image was created specifically to be printed on postcards, which were given free to members of Amecon 2006.

Desktop images in three different sizes are also available for download here: Otaku News Wallpapers

Also, my Miyuki artworks have been added to the site as official banners so if anyone would like to link to ON, please use the newly added graphics (go to Link To Us), thanks :3

EDIT: I bothered. Added shadow to cat, and some slight steam to the ramen noodles (not too much as it will obscure the details). The gorgeous ramen and maneki neko in the bg were rendered by Rik Nicol.
