Yoshitaka Amano to draw ASCII art on Nico Nico Douga

If you can't make it to the Odaiba Gundam wedding, then just sit back and log onto Nico Nico Douga to watch famed artist Yoshitaka Amano do a live drawing of famous ASCII art from 2ch.

I'm betting he'll be drawing pedo bear. When I got a chance to talk with Amano, he said that he rarely ever turns down a project -- it just has to go through a lot of channels before he even gets to hear about it. But once he does, he's more than happy to try it out, and I guess that's what's happening here.

Amano will be doing two drawing sessions: the first is on August 25th from 20:00 to 20:30 JP time, while the other one will be from 18:00 to 19:00 JP time on August 26th -- the second one has yet to have a theme announced, so we'll see what sort of tricks he pulls out.

The showing tomorrow will be at 7am for those of you on the East Coast. Thankfully, I'll be up to start working, so hopefully I'll remember to go and check out Amano's drawings.
