There’s something a little idiosyncratic about this gallery I just can’t put my finger on, but at any rate it has some nice, and at times rather amusing, images in it, so by all means take a look.

PaperChild is an interesting mini-genre of art recently becoming noticeable on the likes of Pixiv, with a number of artists contributing works so themed. The dominant theme is the witty juxtaposition of 2D and 3D, with a 2D illustration being cut out and placed into a photographed scene, usually with some charm or humour.

Here, I am set on introducing one of those artists, who in fact only deals with PaperChild (I’m sure he has plenty of other works to his credit, though) and whose works are original, skilful, very witty and pleasingly erotic (some rather explicit in fact).

When shameless athletes are gathered together to participate in a variety of accident-prone or just plain lewd sports, and then subjected to panopticon-like scrutiny, there are bound to be interesting photographic consequences, so let us take a look at the 2008 Bejing Ero-Olympics.

It may not be a common subject for illustration, but it is interesting when it arises. Here are some interesting images dealing with the transformation of 3D into 2D, generally exhibiting an improvement over the source material.

Idols wearing hotpants. What more can I say? One of the more special interest galleries…

Drama Witches

Pantsu anime Strike Witches fancies itself a serious drama with romantic and sentimental wartime themes and exciting aerial dog fighting action, if the latest episode, number eight, is anything to go by. Those keen to assert its credentials as a serious anime rather than a opportunity to scrutinise the nether regions and lately, nipples, of various adolescent girls are sure to be delighted, but serious pantsu fans will come away with little.

Kimono Gallery

The initial and main Yukata Gallery has proven most popular, by far the most popular gallery published so far in fact, and it is easy to understand why; the tastefulness of much traditional Japanese female apparel is undeniable.

Since there were mainly yukata (light and cheap summer kimono) featured in that gallery, you may be interested to view a gallery instead consisting mainly of kimono proper (the fine silken garments which are much more expensive, both in labour to put on, and in terms of the materials used, than the relatively humble yukata).

Waki Battle: Hakurei Reimu vs the Armpit Idols

After the revelations surrounding the unexpected marketability of a certain unshaven waki (armpit) idol, I recalled that the Vippers had long since beaten me to providing a (shaven) waki appreciation gallery, so it falls upon me only to reproduce it.

Strangely, little discussion on this topic can go past without some haphazard mention of the waki moe Touhou’s Hakurei Reimu exudes, and this is not something which escaped the Vippers either, so it turns out to be battle of armpit baring idols against the charms of Reimu’s detached sleeves. I fear this may be a forgone conclusion…

Tan Ero Gallery

Plenty of enticing 2D tanned/naturally bronzed girls are gathered in yet another seasonal gallery. Some most tasteful images are present. Not such a common theme in this sort of illustration, despite Japan boasting plenty of naturally swarthy types. Tanlines do not feature too heavily, which personally I am happy about, but I am sure there are fans who will be disappointed by the lack… Another gallery where deciding which image to put up top is a chore.

Cool Idol Gallery

The Vippers bring yet another bountiful harvest of idol images, with some contriving to look rather sharper than average. Some of them are also more underdressed than is the norm, but I’m sure nobody will hold that against them.

3D Eroge: Their Time is Nigh?

As we have seen, 3D Custom Girl has become a runaway success, due in no small part to a series of patches catering to a variety of tastes; just about any character can be created, and any taste satisfied, in reasonable fidelity.

What of it? Vippers bring us what is probably the definitive gallery of 3D eroge, with a variety of titles featured, but, as you might have guessed, there is an overwhelming focus on the possibilities offered by Tech Arts 3D’s magnum opus, even including some examples of the mods becoming available…

Kawaii Clothing Girl Gallery

“Girls in kawaii clothes” was how the Vippers described this gallery of Japanese girls, and who am I to argue? I’m not sure all of them could really be described as cute, with many being well towards the sexy or elegant end of the scale, but whatever the case there are some appealing images to be had, with a wide variety of interestingly dressed young ladies. Choosing which image to put at the top was a chore…
