Artist's Comments

Note: Please Full-View...I would really appreciate it...

This is Reinhard from "Legend of the Galactic Heroes". If you don't know about LoGH, it's a series of SF novels which has been adapted to animation...20 years ago. It hasn't been *officially* released in English so its popularity mostly lies within Asia, but both the novel and the anime are epic works IMHO...I highly recommend it if you're into SF.

等放假了我一定要去复习银英的小说……TAT

The title comes from the most famous quote of Reinhard:"My conquest is the sea of stars." and it's also the name of the 3rd opening song of the anime series.

My first time trying somewhat realistic coloring...I covered most of the lineart but I left the eye part untouched...I don't know how to paint realistic eyes... *FAAAIIIIL*...


texture from *ro-stock

If you are at a loss as to what to do.
Raise your stiff middle finger in the air.
