Initially I didn’t want to post until I’d gotten all of the loot, but since the stuff is arriving so slowly, I decided to put it into two posts. I actually got more stuff than usually at the winter comiket. I still don’t think I got everything I wanted though. Darn deputy service and its deposits and bidding limits. T_T

First up is a calendar and illustration book made by Aya Kadoi. Honestly, I’ve never heard of her before. Her art is kinda ‘meh,’ but I tend to buy a calendar every year and lost the auctions fro the other calendars. >.> I uploaded the calendar like I did last year for those who want it. It’s at the bottom of the page. I was surprised to find that not every month gets its own illustration. Heck, it’s not even one illustration for every two months. Nope, it’s one for every three. I was hoping for more illustrations than that T_T. Eh, oh well. At least it comes with a stand. Her website is here.




Next, two illustration books from Goto-P. I assume most of you guys already know of him. You also probably already know how good the art is, so I’ll just give ya guys a picture. The color book includes unfinished sketches of art in that book.




Next, are two things from Nijiro. On the left is an illustration book. The book is composed of illustrations from Nijiro as well as some guest artists. It’s a pretty nice book. It came with the thing on the right, a notebook. Nothing much to say about it, it’s just a regular notebook XD. I think I would have liked to book to include more of his other style. The one that yields this picture. It’s most likely one of my all time favorite pictures.




Now, are two entries from Lily Lily Rose. The book is a combination of some h-manga plus an illustration book. On the right is a folder that I wouldn’t be caught dead using in public (for obvious reasons.) The art is pretty… uhm… pretty. Of course, why else would I buy it, heh.




Now for the last three douijn. You guys can probably recognize two of the artists. The top left is from Fujitsubou Machine. The artists of the doujin (an illustration book) is Noizi Ito and someone else who’s name I never bothered memorizing since I don’t like their art. Thankfully, Ito’s art takes up half of the book.

I’m not sure who published the book on the top right, but I know that the cover artist is Barasui. It looks like one of the Dengeki books, but I’m not sure if it is a parody or not. I’m almost inclined to believe that it is not and that this book is actually published by Mediaworks. There are several images from other artists. Also a few manga as well.

The one on the bottom is made by refeia, one of my favorite artists. Unlike the other books he has put out in the past, this one contains a very short story in the middle. I can’t really judge the story since I can’t read it, though XD. The illustrations are as nice as always.

You can get the scans of the calendar here in either 7zip form or pdf. Not really sure why you’d need the pdf, but it’s not like it took any extra work to make it.
