🕑 Added 2025-01-15 16:29:19 +0000 UTC「人妻が種を求むまで」が売れているこのタイミングなので、過去の人妻NTR作品「堕妻アリス」を単話配信しませんか？
というお誘いというか、打診を受けたので扉絵を描き下ろしました。
「堕妻アリス」から、ヒロインのアリスです。
うーん、同じキャラには見えんw
作画するにあたり過去のデータを引っ張り出して確認していたのですが、この作品執筆したのは2012年。
12年以上前だよw
今更便乗商法でこんなもの引っ張り出してきてもなぁ…という思いはあるのですが、商売に関してはクライアントを尊重する事にしているのでノーとは言いません。
表紙だってサービスしますよ、プロですから。
脱サラして漫画家になったのは忘れもしない2010年なので、堕妻アリスは漫画人生の初期の作品という事になるんですね。
懐かしいなぁ…とは特に思わないんですが、それにしても絵が違う。
当時ですら自分の絵に納得してなかったとはいえ、この頃の絵を見てから今の作品を見ると、我ながら見違えたものだw
以前も話したかもしれないですが、僕は藤島康介のあぁっ女神さま！の作画に憧れて絵を描き始めた人なので、美麗な女性キャラを描く事を最優先しているタイプの作家です。
ですので漫画家になった初期は理想と現実のギャップに結構悩んだのですが、最近はやっとそういう余計な事を考えなくて済むようになってきました。
前述のように僕は作画厨だったので駆け出しの頃は膨大な量のデッサンをこなしたのですが、その努力が見える形として現れ初めるのに体感で7年くらいの時間が必要だったのです。
今ひるがえって俯瞰で眺めれば、その当時の努力が現在の画力の根幹となっていることは明らかです。
とはいえ7年ですよ？待てますか？7年。
仮に「7年待てば結果が出るよ」と教えてもらっていたって長いのに、実際はそういう神の囁きなんて存在しないわけだから…普通待てないですよ。
一生懸命努力しても結局何にもならなかった、という現象が度々起こるのは、こういった「努力した時期と結果が出る時期の時差」にあるよなと感じています。
ちなみに僕が画力の低さに辟易しつつも漫画家を続けてこれたのは、
「脱サラしちゃってたから他に選択肢が無かった」
これに尽きます。
見切り発車というのは、時に大切なものなのです。
I was approached by an editor with whom I worked in the past with the following proposal.
Would you be interested in re-distributing your past work “Fallen Wife Alice” to coincide with the current strong sales of your “Until Married Women Conceive Seed”?
So I decided to at least produce a new cover.
This is Alice, the heroine.
To be honest, it doesn't look like her at all, she is almost a different person.
But that's okay. There is no need to force the resemblance.
This is the Alice that I can express with my current drawing ability.
In order to draw this picture, I checked my old manuscript data and realized that I wrote this work in 2012.
That was more than 12 years ago.
I honestly don't think I need to pull out such an old work now, but I respect my client's opinion when it comes to business.
So I won't say no.
I'll even service a new cover.
That's how a professional works.
I left the salaried life and became an independent manga artist in 2010, so this work is an early work in my life as a manga artist.
I don't feel nostalgic, but anyway, I am surprised at how different the patterns are from those of today.
Even back then, I was not satisfied with the quality of my drawings, but when I compare them with my current works, I am amazed at the progress in quality.
As I may have told you before, I am KOUSUKE FUZISHIMA's Oh My Goddess! I am a person who aspired to become a manga artist because I admired the drawings of KOUSUKE FUZISHIMA's “Ah, Goddess!
In other words, I am the type of artist who places the highest priority on drawing beautiful female characters.
Therefore, when I first became a manga artist, I suffered for a long time from the gap between my ideals and reality, but recently I am finally being freed from this problem.
I had a strong admiration for the quality of painting, and I practiced an enormous amount of drawing as a newcomer, but it took more than seven years for my efforts to bear fruit.
Looking back on it now, it is obvious that the efforts I made back then support the very foundation of who I am today.
But it was seven years.
Can you wait seven years?
Seven years is a long time to wait, even if you know in advance that if you wait patiently, you will eventually see results,
And since there is no such thing as a prediction of the future, most people would give up trying halfway through.
The reason why I hear people lamenting that they have worked so hard but have not achieved anything is because of this time gap between when they made the effort and when the result will come out.
By the way. The reason I have been able to continue working as a cartoonist despite my disappointment in my own lack of ability is because I had already left the salaried workforce and had no other options.
Sometimes it is important to take a leap of faith.
