lucathiaNew version of Legend of Sun Knight, traditional version, soon to be released. There goes my money... (at this rate, I'm going to end up with 2 versions of many of Yu Wo's series)
Volume 1 will be sold starting 2/5. The story itself is the same as the old version, but the art is new! Drawn by J.U., who does the art for 39 LSK. In the old version, volumes 4-6 came with comics, and volume 4 had character designs. The new version does not have comics, and the character designs are scattered throughout the entire series instead of volume 4 having them all. There will be an extra 4 character designs or so (making it 16 in all?), so I'm thinking probably 2 character designs per book (8 books). Insert art is also included this time (1 color pull out, 5 black and white illustrations).
Buying online comes with a small card as a freebie. Buying in physical stores comes with a thank you card (I'm really loving that thank you card! So this was what J.U. was drawing!) While supplies last for both.
Yu Wo posted a preview of the pull out illustration (Grisia visiting Pink!) and one of the black and white illustrations (young Grisia giving Lesus a handkerchief!). I'm really loving the art. <3333
Fic writing! Invincible is coming along. I finished writing chapter 9. |D;; (But uh, not chapter 8 yet, whoops). Chapter 9 will be the longest chapter yet. Nearly 4k words. (and who knows, it might still grow once I edit it...) Well, I'm hoping it will actually be chapter 9. XD; I might need another chapter in-between. If so, that one will end up as chapter 10... Was hoping I could finish writing chapter 8 this week, but now that I seem to be getting sick, it's unlikely to happen. =/

Date: 2013-02-06 07:19 pm (UTC)wonder if by two character designs per book, it means the one in the cover, or if they'll be inside the book
J.U.'s designs are quite nice. wonder how Blaze will look
lol, can't blame you for wanting to buy them (I want to buy them.... if only they came in english...)

Date: 2013-02-07 07:16 am (UTC)The covers should match the simplified version, which can be viewed here. So I don't think the character designs will match up with the characters on the covers (the covers have an uneven number of characters on them). But my guess is Sun + Judgment designs for volume 1! (Maybe even the full body version of them we see on the thank you card if they're reusing art)
I believe J.U. continued with young looking Blaze...
I hope Adair is included in one of the designs. XDDDD I would love to see J.U.'s take on him! But I have a feeling Elijah or Awaitsun (or one of the later characters) are more possible. I'm very curious who those 4 extra character designs will be of! Possibly Pink for one?

Date: 2013-02-08 03:00 am (UTC)it'd be nice, though, that it wasn't reused art
(lol, I should've expected this comment coming from you) Adair has got to get drawn, one way or another.
There are so many important... ah... secondary character... specially in the later books... and not so later ones as well, maybe 'son of the god of war', though probably not... hehe, when I first saw Stone's design I though that was 'son of the god of war'

Date: 2013-02-08 07:14 am (UTC)I am dearly hoping Adair will get drawn! But on second thought, Neo will probably be one of the characters...or maybe not. XD; Lots of secondary characters to pick from! The Son of the God of War doesn't even feel all that important in the long run, haha. I would put Adair's importance over his. =P
