Artwork: Bit by bit...

Artwork by Kumiko Sakaki

Hello everyone. How have you been?
2017 finished a half. Indeed "time and tide wait for no man".

The book which I drew an illustration will on sale June 7. Though it's written by only Japanese words, if you can read the word, I recommend to get the book.

Like that, Recent years I have more work (office and other illustrations), so I can get ahead with my lifework only bit by bit...But,
I've never forget my BD or novel project, and the works are in process. Thank you for my cheering up!

For your kindness...

Drawing‬: Reichswehr Leutnant and his love

Hello everyone! Are you enjoying the summer season? I'm at work on this summer...May I shout?

Um, well, I drew the handsome couple on yesterday night.(Dare I didn't add his regiment number on shoulders) Though my friends may know that, they're original casts of my story. Usual this Reichswehr Leutnant doesn't laugh enough everyday, but this day's he seems happy because he loves her so much♡

The uniform artwork: An artillery Oberleutnant at Sicily 1943

Hi! I painted the German artillery Oberleutnant.(But he is the Austrian)  This image is wartime Sicily in 1942-1943. He had to join in the army by the political system at the time. His Luftwaffe ace friend had already passed away by machine accident. So his face looks a little sad...
Actually I began to drawing his comic(which is something like Graphic Novel or Bande Dessinée). It's my pet project.

His scent image is Tilleul by D'Orsay. This original perfume was created in 1915 wartime France. The Polish artist Balthus(1908-2001) loved it. Recent version was made by wonderful perfumer Olivia Giacobetti. 

By the way...

And I got a work of illustrations from the new client. It's the illustration for public.  The client says that this work might become to a little long span. Though, the schedule will really tight.(the deadline is early April) Though I'm worrying about it, I will do my best.

Hi all,

Before I read about the young Klaus Kinski story. His teenage and Wehrmacht story was so exciting, so I introduce this for the Japanese fan. I'd like to thank for this site creator. If you can read in German words, please visit this site!

マンフレートさんの新しい証言なのか？ Has Manfred said about his father?

Hi all,

When I read this historical information, I was surprised...a little. Yes, you might think so, too...a little. Actually, new information is a little. Some readers are saying so in Mail Online. I've also heard his infos about the cyanide capsule, the order of the suicide from Führer, suspicion for the 20th July 1944 plot, etc. I heard that David Irving is already written in his book "The Trail of the Fox".

You can check this book :)

But anyway, Rommel was one of the great man. I enjoyed to read the article about Rommel in the New Year. This interesting article is written by English, so please check this page if you can read English words.

Rommel's son's account of his father's last moments... (on 30 December 2012)

If you hope to read in Japanese words, please go together to my poor translation :-)

東部戦線のネイキッドメンたちは今頃......

昨日、オランダの友達マークからHappy Birthday!のメッセージ画像が届きました。

マークはドイツ人の祖父を持つバンド・デシネアーティスト（漫画家）で、1930年代の日本人女優が主役の漫画を描いたりしています。ドイツのインコグニート社にも作品を出しているようなのですが、いつもそういう話ではなく脱線した話に花が咲いてしまいます。もちろん、まじめな話もしますが。

私は授業でヌードを描くことがありましたので、裸を見ただけで「きゃあ」と叫ぶ人ではありません。だから、普段から気を付けないとうっかり出してはいけないモノを出してしまいそうなので○禁入れときました。

ドイツの戦況は重々承知したうえでの記事というか感想なのですが、深刻になりすぎる方、茶化している（決して茶化してはいないのですが）と解釈してしまいそうな方は御遠慮下さるのが賢明かもしれません？？
