Gyah, same. My download just died halfway. So now I have to wait an hour to try again. After waiting a hour to try the first time because of something else I download.

Can somebody please remind me why everyone insists on using Rapidshare?

this is artist Hidero Hirobe, which died a couple months ago.

if you tried looking at the images, you would know it's a PC gaming magazine.

I really love Hidero Horibe's art, especially the facial expressions. Great balance between realistic proportions and anime aesthetics. It's a shame he died so soon.

His artbook (Yours ? ???? ART WORKS) is back in stock at amazon.co.jp

I got the book a week ago (well over $50 w/shipping, but got it in 3 days) and I need to find a way to photograph some of the pages since I can't scan it without destroying it, and the other guy who had it seems to have disappeared. Some of the pictures are pretty small in the book so having the full sized PCangelscan is very helpful.

These people show how to use a digital camera to "scan" manga:
http://www.mrdummy.net/mangatranslation/tutorial01.php

It will be crazy to follow their way exactly just to "scan" one book, but the tutorial gives some interesting points to consider:
* camera stand/tripod to keep the camera steady
* external light source
* plexiglass/glass plate to keep the page flat
* remote-control or some timer to prevent camera movements when pressing the shutter

I didn't disappear :)
I just didn't have time to take the photos with the proper care! RL you know :)
Glad you were able to buy the book. Maybe we can divide the work and I'll take photos of the first half of the book and you'll take care of the second half...?

That's one serious setup they have there. I'm going to use a tripod, long exposures, and hope for the best...

I hate RL.
When I have the time I'll start out with a few of my favorites first, and see how that turns out.

I don't hate RL, especially when I'm refering to vacations :)

We could divide the work based on each section of the book. For example, I could take photos of "Cute" and "Sexy" and you could take care of "Cool" and "Mysterious". We would move on from there!

I hate to piss on your parade, but those scans need a lot of work...

I wouldn't mind doing Cool and Mysterious.

Of course, and the beautiful arts are peppered with words.
If you could vector one of these covers, you will be our hero and we will parade around you!

I just ordered this book and when it arrives I'm willing to undo the binding and scan the pages individually. Though I'm sure alot of you might wince at the thought of cannibalizing a book like that; I think this artist's work deserves to get seen and I'm willing to sacrifice a little value down the road if everyone can get to enjoy this artist's work.

If anyone knows of any previous hi-res scans, please let me know (and direct us to them). Then I won't have to bother with going to these lengths.
>> Snow_Puma
Allow me to clarify;

I just purchased the 'Yours' artbook and am willing to scan it.

There is no higher form of life than those who are willing to pick apart arbooks for optimum quality scans, and then post them for /hr/ to worship

Truth!

I just hope they'll be able to release another collection of Hidero art, because Yours is mostly magazine covers and doesn't include his game illustrations and other work.

I don't have scans but I took some quick photos to keep the momentum going.

I think you're right and (un)fortunately I'm not that kind of life form :)
I'm willing to share by taking pictures (as I did a couple of weeks ago), but in no way, I'm going to rip the book apart to do so.
I don't have too many artbooks, but the ones I have are either rare or too precious to rip them apart. And as a collector, I would never think of doing what>>72047
said. And BECAUSE this artist works are so good, he DESERVES that his book is bought IMHO.

Btw, here's a list of the other artbooks I own (besides Yours)

- Yasuomi Umetsu Artworks
- Cool Devices Plus - Yellow Star
- Mezzo Perfect File
- A Kite Complete Workbook

Yes, I'm a fan of Yasuomi Umetsu (especially his characer design) :)

Although I doubt he's in position to benefit one way or another these days. This guy did interlue? Aww, I liked the art in that.
