So many people who found out Katsuya Terada was doing a piece for this project asked me “how in the world did you get him to do a piece!!!????” Indeed, how can we get lucky to get a superstar illustrator from Japan involved with this project?
It was thanks to two other superstar illustrator friends of ours Tadahiro Uesugi and Yoko Tanji who introduced Katsuya Terada to us! How lucky!!! Weeee!
Katsuya Terada is probably best known to most of you as the character-designer for the animated film Blood: The Last Vampire. His totoro is absolutely wicked!
“The wind blows. The weed swings. Totoro is standing. ” —katsuya terada
Terada’s piece is so stunning…I was completely blown away when i first saw it, and I still am.
This piece is absolutely stunning.
Rakagugaking is like a bible to me.
This is stunning.
That piece is amazing on so many levels. First you see the Totoro. Then you see the girl. Then you notice that there are tiny Totoros all over the big one, and plants too.. astounding in idea and execution… brilliant.
Nice to see you around here Mike ! Hope all is good with you and the family …
I absolutely agree … this is an aaaamazing piece. TeradaSensei has outdone himself !! subarashiiii
