Japanese Fanartist

[Mystical Sand]

Hey folks. (haha.) Just thought I'd share this site that I found while poking around on Japanese Google:

tln.jakou.com/

It's got a bunch of really adorable Folklore fanart. To get to it, just click the link at the top that says "gallery". Then, under "Folkssoul" (menu on the left) there are a bunch of little circle and square icons - each of those is a pic. The 300/400px links are also little sketches the artist did.

Please, though, don't steal this person's art and use it for stuff - look but don't touch. I don't see anything on the site where they give permission to take it, so I'd just stay on the safe side and not do so. ETA: I went back and translated the "about" page to be sure - the artist asks that their work not be taken without permission!

My personal favorite is the pic of Ellen tying Keats' necktie for him! :) The picture under 300px of Frizzie and Wilde is a close second, though, hahaha...

Those were adorable! Thanks for posting the link. I love the one of Herve in Keats' outfit and Scarecrow and Cecelia dancing.

Thanks for posting this! *excited*

The one of Scarecrow and Cecilia is cute but it makes me sad. . .

Thank yooou! There's more in the blog.

Hey! Really awesome - the artist linked back to here on her bookmarks page!

Also, I finally got off my lazy Japanese-failing butt and translated the artist's "About" page. The "About Site" and "About Contents" sections basically say that the site is where she intends to post her fanworks and that the series don't belong to her, and also please don't redistribute her work without permission (except the banners that link back to her site, which can be found on the "Bookmark" page).

The "About Me" section, though, I'll give you guys directly:

Maintainer: Asato / female / resident of Tokyo
E-mail: asato_tln■inter7.jp (replace ■ with @ sign)
Likes: imported pastries, donuts, horror movies, "maikemi" (My Chemical Romance), "ajikan" (Asian Kung-Fu Generation), and glasses
Karma Release: Give her 30 donuts

I thought that last bit was really cute! <3 Now I want to figure out what my karma release item(s) is...

I sent the webmistress a message the other day to thank her for linking back to us on her site and to say how lovely her artwork is. She replied and said that she's happy that we've come to see her site (literally, "Because fans like you come to see my website, it makes Folklore even more fun!").

I'm not in charge here, so I can't do it myself, but I wondered if the mods wanted to bookmark her site somewhere on here...?

Her karma release has also changed! She received her donuts, and now she needs 10 roll-cakes. ^^
