Even if yesterday's post had a small scripting problem, we move on...


Kenichi Sonoda is a manga artist with a love of machinery. Although some of this machinery happens to be guns, he also has a love for classic automobiles. Ever since I saw the main character of Mr. Sonoda's manga, Gunsmith Cats, tear around the corner in her '67 Shelby Cobra, I've been enamored with the work he's done. Mr. Sonoda has a keen eye for the power behind this machinery, and his liberal use of these cars shows he has not only great knowledge for them, but also great reverance. Technically, his art is a marvel. Very clean, and always dynamically structured, the violence appears more shocking through his art than through most I've read. His drafting skills are so impeccable, I'd be hard-pressed to find a technical drafter who can do it better. In other words, Mr. Sonoda is a master.
