Hey, listen! Did you know? CU has an artwork RSS Feed. It gives you tips for every new update here, and that means you don't have to get them from me!

Our Front Mission 3 update today was made possible by scans from Oregu of website Front Mission Zaftra. Thank you! There are a lot of scans, so many more artworks are on the way once I get them edited.
Wishes for all

From CU to you and yours, and yours's theirs, have a Merry Christmas, Merry Grinchmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year! If none of those suits your fancy, then Happy Time Off Work or Happy Holiday-Pay day. :P I'm dropping this Atelier Rorona update and taking a day or two off myself, so have a good one and don't forget to lock up your pets and leave a bear trap out for zombie Santa.
Creative Censored, no thanks
Posted by David on December 15, 2011
SOPA faced another hearing today before the House Judiciary Committee to debate proposed internet censorship laws that no sane person would expect to see outside the gates of North Korea. When approval of such laws is at the mercy of people who barely know the difference between a server and a service provider, you should be very worried. Even CU could disappear under the law. We are not without options though. The Electronic Frontier Foundation has a great list of actions against SOPA you can pursue individually if you haven't done so already. If you value the freedom to share gaming, artwork, videos, etc, this is the time to protect it.

Ballistic dropped word today of d'artiste Fashion Design, the latest entry in the well-received d'artiste series. Quoting the press release: "When asked who would benefit most from d'artiste Fashion Design, award winning digital artist, and Contributing Editor, Anne Pogoda said "Concept Artists, Game Design Artists, Fashion Designers and Character Designers can learn from this book. They learned in the previous volume d'artiste Character Design how to design characters alone, they can now learn how to digitally dress them."
As with all of Ballistic's books, the sales page for d'artiste Fashion Design allows you to preview every page in the book so you know exactly what you'll get. The book ships in January.
25 years of Zelda in one image

I somehow missed this when it originally made news earlier this year, but seeing as the making of video only has 130k views on YouTube at the moment I think it's worth resharing. A Japanese artist who goes by the name of Ag+ created the ultimate homage to the 25th Anniversary of the Zelda series with a Corel Painter masterpiece featuring over 100 characters from the series. I've included both the making of video and a fresh upload of the final result below. Making of video Full illustration
