GANBARE NIPPON! NIHON HA TSUYOI KUNI!


As the Tohoku Region recovers slowly from the March 11th, triple disaster, thousands of missing persons have yet to be found. Another massive search team of Japanese and Americans are undergoing the recovering of bodies.
News of the devastated areas report progress, but the reality is, it'll be years before there is real progress.

With that said, I'd like to dedicate this illustration to the suffering, as well to the Japanese nation, and all the helping hands and voices around the world that have come together as one to overcome this hardship.

And specifically to the military, rescue and recovery teams, fire and policemen, hospitals, seniors, evacuation shelters, nuclear workers, family and children, fishing and farming industries, pets, housing and construction workers, businesses, spiritual ones, schools, and the newborns, keep on going! We can do it together! Nothing is too big to overcome!

I'm looking forward to a new Japan! Thank you!

Ganbare Nippon!

GANBARE NIPPON!


Here's a work in progress tribute poster of the ongoing recovery that I'd like to dedicate to the Japanese people. For now, this is all my family and I are able to do as well as continual donation of money. We are gathering clothes, books and toys to send when the government announces it's OK to do so. So in the meantime, I've stopped all work to focus on this poster.

Initially, I had planned to pay tribute to the Tohoku region which is suffering the most, but realized it's Japan as a whole. She is reeling from the unsurmountable devastation where industries all across the nation are affected. They mustn't be neglected I feel. Now, only time will tell and reveal how resilient the Japanese people truly are.

I for one, am living among greatness. To witness the awe of sheer will and determination is an honor. Thank you, and GANBARE NIPPON!

Kawasaki Ninja Baby!


Since I'm living in Kawasaki, is there a better candidate for a motorcycle in Ghost Ninja, then the Ninja itself? Probably not. It'll be added in Level 1, along with other new vehicles. And if you've got a suggestion, drop me a comment. I'm all ears. As of now, a mini van comes to mind, something like the one in, hmmm... Scooby Doo? Anyway, this is what I've got so far and who knows, the green baby might even be unlocked for ramming those blasted zombies!

And a big Happy Birthday shout out to my big boy who's turning 3! Love you little man!
