Rune 🐇 Comms Open via Ko-fi @runicillusionist.bsky.social · Oct 11

Greetings! I am Rune! 🐇

A digital painting of an epic battle between two fierce dragons with a looming storm during sunset. The golden dragon on the left is charging up a fiery breath attack, while the peach-colored dragon on the right is preparing to respond with a blue fiery attack of their own.

A bust of a male, feathered alien character. He has long hair with feathers lining along the edge, up to the tip. He has a feline-like nose. His right eye is cyan with black sclera, while his left eye is blind with a cyan scar over it. The sclera of the left eye is a faded blue. He had braided hair down the front, held together by bronze clasps. His colors are primarily white, with some pale cyan markings and highlights. He has a beard and moustache, with the beard being braided as well.

A digital portrait of a black dragon with iridescent scales. He has a mane of black fur with tan tips going down the back of his head and neck, with another mane upon his chest. He has a beard-like mane with it being tied at the chin. His eyes are golden in color, and he has several horns going down his face and jawline. His mouth of sharp teeth is open in a snarl, saliva dripping in his mouth. He has two "gum nozzles" in his mouth, slightly protruding out.

A digital bust of an alien character. They have pale flesh, with a light blue scar going down their left eye. Their left eye is slightly discolored, but shares similar turquoise colors to the right eye. Their hair is long, with shades of a blueish silver, going down into a soft blue, and ending in a deep turquoise. They have armor-like scales around their neck, shoulders, and chest, with two glacial blue gems: one at the base of the neck, and one in their chest. They have blue lips, with extra skin at the corner of the mouth (like the flews of a big cat or canine). They have an intricate earring attached to their ear.

If you see this, QRP a gif of your first ever anime.

I think I was around... 7 or so when I saw this one. Honestly, given how strict my family was with movies, it's a shock I was able to watch it. XD

But I think my parents just saw "cartoon" and assumed, "Yeah that's good for kids".

Whenever I show up at conventions, I go to my favorite comic artists table and start spilling paragraphs about how much I like their stuff. I think I come off as a supreme weirdo but that’s the price of authenticity or whatever

From bravewave.net/interviews/t...

Mo: Do you remember the first time you met someone who said they loved your work on Mega Man 2?

Tateishi: You’re the first, in 2013. No one else has.

Mo: Wow. I’m surprised. I don’t even have a follow-up question… how could no one come up and say something.

Tateishi: …

Mo: Now that you know how big Mega Man 2 is outside of Japan, do you look fondly back at the soundtrack?

Tateishi: Yeah, my thoughts have changed since I met you and became more aware of how people felt. But even when I was at Konami, I didn’t even bother telling anyone I did Mega Man 2. So the fact you came all the way to Japan to tell me these things makes me very happy I worked on the game all those years ago.
