>>1506556I usually find the most high quality artwork in visual novel games and self-published comics / /doujinshi manga/. Websites all over the Internet contain album collections of ripped image renders like these. I only collect the best of my favorites whenever I browse.

>>1506557>>1507063I've loved this girl, the beautiful high-school heartthrob bad girl, 佐伯 倫子 (Tomoko Saeki), since the 6th grade after I played a dating simulation visual novel game called "Simgirls" by a guy named sim-man, which he just finally finished this year with the Full Version 5.27 <
http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/594476 > since the game came out in 2002, based on a manga that became an anime and OVA called 「D・N・A²(ディー・エン・エイ＾ツー)」 ("DNA²"). The original story sucked, because the ending was incredibly disappointing, but Simgirls did it a rightful justice. If it wasn't for Simgirls, I probably would have never discovered the original manga, anime, or OVA. I have always loved the old-school style of artwork.
