Bishiland ~ FAQ

~ Frequently Asked Questions ~

Can I take a drawing from one of your websites to make a layout / an avatar etc...
No. It's not allowed to take anything from my galleries for any use. I display my stuff here for visitors to look and enjoy, but my gallery is not a take-away, thanks for respecting that.
Are these all the drawings you've ever made ?
Nope, it is a very "bishi oriented" and fanart selection. And most of the Heredity-related drawings are not displayed here, but on Heredity's special website. There are also some other pieces on my DeviantArt (DA) gallery (even a few girls, wow ! and some other random/silly stuff.)
About tutorials...
I've made a few, some are even in english. But they aren't worth much... anyway, you can find them on DA (in english) or on the Heredity site (in french).
Do you make collaborations ?
Not anymore, sorry.
Do you do commissions ?
I've tried in the past and it happened to be a complete failure. I just can't draw what I don't imagine by myself, and I can hardly draw anything except bishies. Call it lack of talent. I'm not a professionnal artist anyway. So the answer is no.
So you won't draw something for my site/RPG/novel/etc... ?
No, I won't. Sorry, no time, no motivation.

Where can I find/buy your BL collection ?
Sorry, it's sold out for the moment. I'll put a note here if I print it again someday.
When will Heredity and Shadows be translated to english ?
For Shadows the answer is "never". Because I'm not fluent enough to translate them by myself, and it's just too much work for someone else to do for free. I'm considering translating Heredity, though. The 39 first pages are already "almost" translated, but they need corrections and edition. When the pages are ready, they'll be available on this site.
I have a scenario, will you draw it for me?
I'm sorry but I got plenty of work with my own projects. And as I said before, I would probably not be able to do it anyway.
How do you put tones on your mangas ? Where do you find them ?
I use Photoshop, free references and stuff provided by friends (More details on Heredity.) It's all CG.
Where do you find the fonts you use ?
dafont.com

What does "bishi" or "bishies" mean ?
LEAVE, NOW ! (joke © Bal)
Gnu...It means bishounen, which is the japanese word for, basically, "handsome young guy".
What does "Yaoi" mean ?
Humm... I suggest to LEAVE NOW too if you're browsing my webpages without knowing what bishies and yaoi means, really - because it's kinda what this site is all about.
Anyways, for your own enlightment, learn that yaoi is the acronym used by western fans in the manga/anime world to talk about male homosexual relationship, boyxboyorlyomgwtfbbq. Japanese people usually use the expression boys' love and so do I, because it sounds sweeter than yaoi, imo...
So please, please feel free to leave this website at once if you think you may be offended by their content, or if you are under-aged.
Anyways, there's nothing really explicit in my sites, it's usually softcore / lovey-dovey stuff.
What's a BJD ?
Ball Jointed Doll. If you want to know more about BJDs, there's a FAQ especially related to these dolls in the BJD section of the site. It's here.
