Hey hey, everyone! ;D
Photography classes pause for a quick personal photo of my sketchbook.
Used a Nikon FM2 w50mm 1.4 lens
Really tired of red lights and darkrooms with chemical stuff <.<, but oh well : ) for those who don´t know the "old" process of revealing photos, I leave you here a little curiosity ;3

BANZAI Magazine

 I got news, people! :D 

At the moment I´m working in a manga magazine.*o*

I feel so honored with this opportunity! TwT lol

(The BANZAI Magazine is only available in portuguese at the moment.)

But if You want to see anime/manga domination, support us by subscribing!! x3

BANZAI is a quarterly magazine of comics in manga style.
A project of portuguese authors that have the opportunity to publish their works regularly.

At the moment, we have the regular series:
- "TMG - The Mighty Gang" by Joana Rosa Fernandes
- "Kuroneko" by Cristina Dias

The Banzai have always an area dedicated to new talents in this area of BD. In the 1ST edition, we have presented the BD "Pandora Song" of Rita Marques and Inês Pott, as well as a mini showcase of designs by Marta Patalão.

We will soon have the occasional participation of foreign authors, as part of the partnership of NCreatures (the only studio for Lisbon specializing in manga style) with the Comic Party of Denmark and the Nosebleed Studios in Sweden. Thus, our authors will also have their works published in these two countries.

THE ORIGIN OF THE PROJECT
The Banzai appeared in follow-up of the SEMPAI PROJECT, an action for free training that the NCreatures did during more than four years. We use our trips to the events of BD, manga and japanese culture to see the work of young authors. Those who showed potential we offer guardianship and serve as mentors. Therefore, if they are interested or simply curious, send us a mail!

 Editors: Mapril Santos, Manuela Cardoso and Ricardo Andrade
Authors: Joana Rosa Fernandes, Cristina Dias, Natalia Batista, Manuela Cardoso, Inês Pott, Marta Patalão etc.

In Portuguese:

BANZAI é uma revista trimestral de banda desenhada no estilo manga.
Um projecto de autores portugueses que têm aqui a oportunidade de publicar as suas obras regularmente.

Neste momento, temos as séries regulares:

A Banzai está sempre um espaço dedicado aos novos talentos nesta área da BD. Na 1ª edição, apresentámos a BD “Pandora's Song” de Rita Marques e Inês Pott, assim como um mini-showcase de desenhos de Marta Patalão.

Teremos em breve a participação ocasional de autores estrangeiros, como parte da parceria da NCreatures (o único estúdio lisboeta especializada no estilo manga) com a Comic Party da Dinamarca e a Nosebleed Studios da Suécia. Assim, os nossos autores também vão ter as suas obras publicadas nestes dois países.


A ORIGEM DO PROJECTO
A Banzai surgiu no seguimento do SEMPAI PROJECT, uma acção de formação gratuita que a NCreatures fez durante mais de quatro anos. Aproveitamos as nossas idas aos eventos de BD, manga e cultura japonesa para ver os trabalhos de jovens autores. Aos que apresentaram potencial oferecemos tutelagem e servimos como mentores. Por isso, se estiverem interessados ou simplesmente curiosos, mandem-nos um mail!
