I couldn't let #Doggust go by without drawing at least one dog, so here is the doggiest dog I know, @ed.dog's dog Ed. They seem to have mistaken their own paw for a ball. 🐾🐾🐾

was up until 3am last night photoshopping the text off of this Brave Fencer Musashi Weekly Famitsu cover for absolutely no reason like I don't even plan to use it for anything. but here, you can have it, if you want it. Necky the Famitsu fox as Musashi (art by Susumu Matsushita) #BraveFencerMusashi

the ratio of how much I ❤️ this game to how much nobody has played it is nuts to me so I hope this somehow finds the 1 or 2 people out there who will enjoy it 🙏 also for anyone new here I do not use AI for my translations & if you want a peek into my localization process it looks something like this

Join Musashi on his journey to save the kingdom of Allucaneet in this official novelization of Square's Brave Fencer Musashi! (Part 1) Translated by yours truly! Find it here: nyaasunobouken.com/bravefencer.... #BraveFencerMusashi #PS1 #Squaresoft

Was stuck on the phone earlier and decided to try to figure out how to draw a Little Turd #BraveFencerMusashi

There was always more to the story! Epilogues for the PSX game Brave Fencer Musashi were released by Squaresoft in the official player's guide but hadn't been translated into English until now. I'm very happy to share these with you. Enjoy! #BraveFencerMusashi nyaasunobouken.com/bravefencer....

I am enjoying the #Ghostbusters watch party with @ghostbusters.net! I want to remind everybody that this book exists & it's really cute & funny & has lots more detail on Abby & Erin's friendship which makes me happy ❤️ You should read it! 🚫👻❤️

It is she!! #Ghostbusters

Hello, #PortfolioDay! I'm a mixed media artist and also a translator! (JPN -> ENG) I was recently laid off from a 10+ year run as a toy designer, and I'm hoping to do something more illustrative/lively in the future.🌟

"How are you doing, Nyaasu?" fine, why do you ask

luckily a while ago I started keeping my pencil stubs bc I felt bad throwing them out like I was doing, so now I have a healthy supply I haven't had any art to show lately since I'm in a studying (torturing myself) period but hopefully when I get back to it ill have even better things to share 🫶

I saw a guy on instagram using a really small pencil to draw, & I thought, why is he doing that? but his art was amazing so i tried it & it changed my life & now I'm addicted to it. my current pencil looks like this & I can't fit it in the sharpener anymore and I don't want to get a fresh one now 😭

I like when in video games Miyamoto Musashi is just A Little Guy

idk where to begin w/ this one. 1. I thought it was funny this lady calls Musashi "Bob, my grand(son)" but the Musashi writers strike again 2. The localizers unknowingly messed this up by using "grandSON," the term was gender-neutral in Japanese. I will need to look for that exact dialogue in-game

comparing these two versions I still feel like the English version of BFM is very well done, but there are a few decisions where I'm just like...why? also, Breadshop? did you mean Bakery? 😂

This line was left out of the English version too ("He's really obsessed with that bone...") and I don't see why it couldn't just be left in. Dogs *are* obsessed with bones. I never would have questioned it, myself. 🤔

it's hard to take photos of crts, they do this thing where the screen goes all black, at least with my stupid phone but I'm having a good time 👍 (I'm taking notes for translation today)

also somehow Wanda is creepier to Musashi in English

Oh I guess they weren't kidding or just making it up for the guide Japanese version also adds that the howls sound somehow lonesome (don't know why they cut that down so much for English)

are you for real right now?? like. wtf. (from the Japanese player's guide and fact file) #Translation #BraveFencerMusashi

Watercolor duckie! Patreon suggestion (kind of), done for practice. 🦆 #AnimalArt

OMG OK so at least it's not just Musashi?? do you know if they added that censor squid in the English version or if it was always there? Musashi's whole katana is out and I feel like I want to censor it with funny things like this when I translate it

Fillet was indeed not very happy about it tbh once I got over the shock of it it was kind of funny, which I assume was the point. He is now wearing an improvised kilt torn from Fillet's dress

He is so fat!!⚡ #Pokemon

A slight redesign for my Musashi dog. Based more on the Matsuoka artwork than the Nomura ones. More compact and squishy, swishier top-knot tail! #BraveFencerMusashi

I'm at the localization stage of translating the second Brave Fencer Musashi novel and I really, really don't like this character's English name

OK this time I know somebody ordered this (it was @reikafox.bsky.social) Kambei Shimada from #SevenSamurai as a wolf. 🐺

Some alternate versions (I made them to be examples of commission types if needed in the future). Pencil and digital tone, and digital ink and color.
