Great Valentine cards, Springie ... it's nice to see them again! I also like the one you sent, CD ... where the Eagle and the Swan are involved I'm always happy!

Yesterday, I squeezed a little time out of my agenda and have quickly drawn the following. It doesn't do Ken justice but it's the Eagle asking if someone (especially from the Swannies) want to be his valentine this year!

That is a marvelous picture of Ken, Gatchamarie!

I know what you mean about not having enough time to draw, but I hope you're able to find some more time!

Thanks for the links, CD! The second I knew about but I admit that the first one I didn't ... I always love to see more art! And thanks for your comment ... even to you, LB! To tell the truth, if I don't find time to draw it's because I'm creating more new cake designs to a longer list of clients ... that also makes me artistically happy (even if my work is far from professional)! Art is for everyone to enjoy and can be found everywhere under many types!

You are welcome Gatchamarie, I know I am always on the look out for new sites with pictures and new fanfics being written. I just wish I could read some of those fics that are written on those sites.

When I try translating them the stories tend to get very confusing because so many words do not translate very well.

I know the feeling! And yes ... they do tend to lose most of their true meaning when trying to translate. Different languages have different sentence structures and tenses and tend to have different or more meanings for one single word. It's almost impossible to translate only the words, one by one, to make sense out of a whole sentence or phrase. And I do get more intrigued with foreign scriptures, especially Japanese as they smell of something original when it comes to anime!

Unfortunately, I am not an artist (I totally suck at drawing. Big Grin ) so I guess I will just share some romantic pics of the Eagle and the Swan that I found on the net.

All the other below images are made by my favorite Japanese artist with a very interesting name, Ha-ha

There is also this Gatch comic with a Valentine's day theme. I can't read Japanese characters, but I guess that Jun wanted to give a box of chocolate to her dream guy (who else, the Eagle, of course, Smile ) , unfortunately the God Phoenix later went into Firebird mode, and this would definitely melt Jun's chocolate, oh no, Poor Jun!

In my country, it is customary to give flowers, chocolate, and dolls to your female partners, and I really think the below Gatch dolls will be perfect for a true Gatch Valentine's experience.

Oh, I would LOVE to have this Eagle's doll to snuggle with on the bed every night.

Lastly, for a little-bit of self-made projects, I will just share again my old Gatch Valentine's animations.
