Dear Friends of Jano,

Have you ever played Sonic Cd? I feel the bulk of you just went no, well 1. Why?  2. It is ok because I will explain. In Sonic CD, Sonic the Hedgehog would be in the past, present and future at various points in the game. Why is this relevant because I realized that is how this website will seem sometimes. The theme song is now playing in my head.

Anyway.

So there are some perks to being unemployed, kinda. I get to spend my time story boarding Act 2 of comic series Azure Ascendance and try to get some photo projects well when life lets me. Let me explain. As I said I’ve been storyboarding the fuck out of Act 2, which you would think would be easy since I literally wrote the story a while ago. But I have to make sure the story still makes sense, characters are anatomically correct, and I don’t do the same boring character stances every single fucking panel. Once I actually finish gesturing out Act 2(currently on issue 10), then I will go back and confirm the line work, ink, scan and then spend the next several months coloring. Yes, you read that write several months.

But Jano isn’t each Act going to be 5 issues?

Yes, and ideally I should get 1 issue done a month. BUT that is ideally and as we all know sometimes idealism is not a reality. Hence why I am saying several months instead of 5. As far as Issue 2 is concerned that will be released soon.I don’t plan on releasing an Issue until I can purchase the copyright. Let me remind ya’ll, if someone steals my work I will stab the fuck out of their life and sign their dead body with my cum. Spoiler alert: I have a foul mouth and make no apologies for it. My parents would be so proud….not really.

As far as my photo projects that I’ve been trying to bring life to since April. YO, Unprofessional people are the absolute worse, they can get stabbed in their cunt hole souls. I had wanted to try to do a few more  fantasy concept shoots but after the arduous, annoying, and aggrevating ordeal of securing models the past few months for the 4 ideas I had, I legit will wait to next spring before to pursue those artistic visions I desired.  Spoiler Alert: when I am done with these few remains shoots, there is a high chance I will be retiring my camera for the next few months. The only way I am going to do a shoot is if I am getting paid, unless we have a prior arrangement. And if we do have a prior arrangement (example when you say you will model for me), after a courtesy check I will not continue to chase you down if you expressed an interest.The only way I may do it is if 1. You actually matter to me as a person or 2. wait, there is no 2. I am totally ok with dropping worthless souls from my life  😉

That’s essentially where I stand with my projects.I did one of my concept shoots on Sunday and I will be working on those photos this week. I legit want to spend a lot of my time playing video games but I know if I pick up the controller I may go down the rabbit hole and won’t work on my book. Yay for moderation and a tiny bit of laziness. In other news there is only 1 episode left of Game of Thrones this season(UGH),Remember Dragon Lives Matter. The Defenders still made me wanna burn The Iron Fist.Rick is the koolest pickle I’ve ever seen in my life, he could be a Defender.Eclipses are magical, and remember when you see a Nazi stab them and make it look sexy.

Yea I hate Nazi’s, that’s a thing.

Dear Friends of Jano,

Eh I guess its time, time to start showing off all things I worked on the past year. Look at you getting all creamy and squishy.  You may wanna wipe yourself before you continue reading, or not whichever its your body juices.

Before I start let me say this one more time

FUCK 2016!!! It can suck all the shit out of my asshole and suck my big veiny juicy plumbus.The amount of non pull out rape that happened last year was inexcusable, but as a result of it busting deep in my guts there were some things that gestated that helped my hybrid skill set. Yes, I just romanticized my own rape.

Spoiler alert: Before last summer the only type of photography I did was events at non profits and the church I help take photos at.  And real shit, it goes so boring after a while. No, I need you to understand. There is not much to taking pictures of a group people engaged in a task, like there isn’t.  Every once in a while you may catch something spectacular, but mostly it is a large sea of people who you hope stay engaged in their task. If not its like a deer stuck in the headlights which kinda ruins the nature of the photo.

I’ve had some experience with one on one photoshoots but not enough(those of which can be seen on my portfolio page), so last summer while I was painfully unemployed I decided to expand the FUCK outta my portfolio.  Yay for friends who will help you out. Wait lets change that, Yay for friends who say they will help you out and not cancel on you. When I started this project the theme was going to be of an artist nature, right about that. It turned more of a who is still down, oh you, ok kool.

At any rate this is the first entry of my posing experience. (I don’t think i am keeping that name) This was photographed on the campus of UNC Charlotte in their garden, it actually went well up until it started raining.

But Jano you could have shot in the rain if you were serious.

Nah Bruh, last time I checked electronics don’t function well after getting wet. I def would like to thank my home girl for helping me out with this. The link to some of the photos can be found here.

Anyway thats it for now, y’all go ahead and enjoy that while I am go do my hair. Yea thats  a thing for me, these curls won’t take care of them self. Until next time remember to check out my comic series Azure Ascendance available for purchase here. Meanwhile I’ll be working on Act 2, among other things. Side Note Joy is new season of Game Of Thrones, Insecure and Rick and Morty.

Hybrid Out.

Dear Friends, Of Jano,

Yea I think I am keeping that as an intro, makes me feel all creamy on the inside. Creamy is good.

Ordinarily I wouldn’t repeat the news of a previous issue but since

  1. I just recently made this page live, and I know there is a slim chance of people actually going back to read an old issue of mine. It’s ok to admit that you are lazy, I understand.
  2. What I am going to talk about this CURRENT issue relates to another the aforementioned issue I was talking about.

Ok now that is out of the way time for the brief recap. *DEEP BREATH* So at some point during the past year when I was unemployed AS FUCK, I decided to start my own my comic series. Ironically enough it was just going to be another random set of drawing, but ya know one thing led to another and BAM Jano Ryusaru presents Azure Ascendance.

But Jano what is it about?The story takes place in the country of Azure under the rule of the benevolent Empress Watatsumi. In Issue 1 we meet her as her and her daughter Princess Yosei are on a royal reprieve at the beach, along with their Royal Guards and Mage. What is supposed to be a holiday turns into a battle royal by a band of random individuals. Leaving questions of who are they and the purpose behind this attack. For a preview of issue click here to go to my Behance page.

Yo I literally copy and pasted that from a previous issue. Anyway as I said an issue or 2 ago that I recently finished all 5 issues of Act 1, and officially have started on Act 2 which is another 5 issues. Plus I just got the copyright for issue 1.Y’all need to understand this in the event that material gets stolen I will kill someone, rape the corpse, and set it on fire to get rid of the evidence.

Huh, sorry I went to a dark hypothetical place, which I probably barely touched the surface off. Spoiler alert.

With all that being said I am very excited to be working on this project and after some time passes I will release issue 2. But for now go order your copy of Azure Ascendance Level one here. Then do that sharing thing with your friends online, and nice domino effect will occur. If you can share mass amounts of meme’s and other things, you can share a creation by your favorite sarcastic asshole 🙂

Rhapsody ReprieveDear Fans of Jano,

You Know what I think I like that intro, yea I think I’ll keep that on all my platforms. So Last blog I talked about how I was going to start posting the stuff I worked on in my absence. Well to start it off I thought I would start with my latest house party flyer in lieu of tonights events, minus the font and my address of course. ( I rather not be stalked by any one if I can help it). That’s right my 6th party and 1st one in 2 years, Rhapsodic Resurrection. Why that title? Because as I said there has been a lot of the no pull out rape within the last 2 yrs, especially 2016. Ugh Fuck you and everything you stand for 2016.

Huh, oh sorry.

But essentially I was a hermit for the bulk of the past 2 years, and yesterday was the 1st time I posted anything on any of my social media sites since April 26, 2016, longest time ever I went MIA. I should get a medal for not running my mouth that long. Side note all said channels are in my navigation bar in case you want to read my smart ass mouth. Facts. Essentially this is me un-hermitting (new word bonus) my self and trying to enjoy my life again, simple right. Hopefully it will be a fun time had by all and I will remember all night, well at least most of it.

Also side note, I just watched the new Power Rangers movie, I know I am so late. I have to say this is the first reboot of an old franchise that I am actually satisfied with, unlike the last new Ninja Turtle movies. (And that shit totally pissed me off)

Anyway back to the point of it all. To view Rhapsodic Resurrection full size, check out my behance page here. Meanwhile I need to rest before tonight starts and prepare my body for my alcoholic mixtures of Jano Juice and Ryusaru and Ryusaru Rhapsody.

Jano Are you gonna blog about your party?

Ha, probably not but I prob will post pictures and statuses on twitter, Facebook, instagram and what not haha.

The Misadventures of Focusing and Dedication

Yo like I legit don’t know how to start off a blog. Well I do but saying Hey, or Yo is too fucking common for me. I should start posting more, why haven’t you I ask. Well about that, spoiler alert it is in the title.

Where do I start? Fuck it lets start from the beginning. First off in case anyone is wondering, I actually have been working on material for this website which I will start posting soon in intervals. There just have just been some snags. Snags like what? Well people actually following through of modeling for me.  I have been trying to do portfolio builders over the past year since I have mostly done events and programs, which got pretty boring to me. So I have been trying to get some experience with actually working with models for shoots. Problem is people say yes then things happen in their lives and BAM you have lost a model, and if you are lucky they are nice enough to let you know so they won’t keep you wondering. Most of the time though, probably not.

As far as my actual art, I’ve mainly been working on my new comic series Azure Ascendance. For the first few months I was going full force, then at some point March my  focus ability got raped by life. Like hardcore, bondage, sadistic, no pull out type rape. And when I restarted working in April, oh that focus ability was only a dream. It took me the longest to finish Act 1. The fucking longest.

But Jano is everything back on track? When will we see what you have been working on?What about your social media channels, will we ever see your assholic humor again?  Sharing is Caring Jano.

Obviously I am gonna share my work why else would I make a website dedicated to my work, duh. Like I said earlier the projects I’ve been working on over the past year will start debuting soon in intervals, at some point I am going to release Issue 2, and my smart ass mouth will start flowing like cum out of a porn star.  There were certain things I wanted done before I started becoming full force advertisy (making that a word today) and socially, but there were unforeseen delays that life wanted to hit me with. Felt like Glen when he got bashed in by Negan. Mass cool points to any one who got that reference.

This is actually a really simplified version of events for the past year. I am so not typing all of that shit. Nope, no such blog post will exist.

So Jano is everything back on track? When will you come back to us?

It may happen sooner than you think.

*ends on vague note purposely to create suspense.

Damn I need to get better at writing.

Final Cover Issue 1_edited-1.jpg

Dear Friends of  Jano,

Within the past few months I decided to do on a full on comic series, which was just going to be a new set of random of drawings. *insert irony here.* The bulk of the past few months was spent brainstorming names, places and a coherent story that hopefully won’t be ripped apart the internet. Because we all know the internet will roast your soul worse than Cersei did in Game of Thrones.  Side note that may have been the only time I have ever liked her in entire series. Anyway, I am giving myself  a few years to finish this series since everything will be done by me.You read that right EVERYTHING, what did I say before all things are possible through me. I am really excited to be doing this and look forward to how it all comes out over the next few years.

The story takes place in the country of Azure under the rule of the benevolent Empress Watatsumi. In Issue 1 we meet her as her and her daughter Princess Yosei are on a royal reprieve at the beach, along with their Royal Guards and Mage. What is supposed to be a holiday turns into a battle royal by a band of random individuals. Leaving questions of who are they and the purpose behind this attack. For a preview of issue click here to go to my Behance page. Forgive the Jano Symbol that is placed on all the images, it will not be in final printed product which is available here on Amazon.

Numinously Noir Final Cover

Greetings all,

I recently finished my latest online sketch book/  collection Numinously Noir. It is the first project I have done since my last projects Miasmic Emancipation and Velvet Sweaters. Although the first 2 images in this project  were done during the time I did the aforementioned projects.

The goal of this was to start doing very detailed drawings, since colored previous work aside from my house party invites and those with trademark characters were more of Lets see what happens. 

All the images here aside from one were preconceived before putting to paper. Points if you can guess which one wasn’t. If you like my work awesome, if not well I don’t think I care 🙂
