Matt's How to earn a Tablet :P
What an amazingly detailled collection of pieces form back in 2003. I can see that you're hugely talented (as if I hadn't already noticed that from pices like your mouse drawn piece of art for the NG Calendar, for example.)
I love how this shows your early inspiration having come from places like Metal Slug and Gundam Wing, with a healthy dollop of Manga breasts thrown in there to make your own style something more than others who have gone before you.
I love the simplicity of the piece, with the page turning and the intricacy of the sketches that you've drawn. You've told us that there's over 100 pages here, when we can see that there are hundreds, if not thousands of hours of work here, painstakingly drawn, then laid out in this aesthetically presented sketch book.
If you could have done anything differently, I'd have jsut encouraged you to make a front cover for this piece - some sort of leather bound tome of a scrap book that you've created. I'd really like to see more volumes of this, since there are bound to be more of your works out there that you could give us a glimpse of. Oh, and perhaps little annotations to go with some of the pictures, explaining hwo, wy and so forth, just so we can glimpse what makes you tick without having to get inside your head in a more medical sense...
