In the last week of November this year my sister and I were blessed to be able to go to the Studio Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, Tokyo. It was like a dream- such a beautiful and imaginative place . There is a room there set out like a real artist's studio, with concept sketches pinned all over the walls, messy desks with tools and paints.. it was just amazing.

The Laputa robot has always held a special place in our hearts, and so E and I were really looking forward to seeing it in its' full-sized glory. It stands up on the roof of Ghibli, countless visitors filing through to have photos with it- no one reaches higher than his 'thighs' on him. We decided that, since there was an hour-long wait to get into the restaurant for lunch, we would spend it sitting on the roof drawing the Robot instead.

And so we did.

Laputa Robot - (c) Laputa- Castle in the Sky - Studio Ghibli

OH MY GOD.
I'm incredibly jealous and excited for you that you got to see the robot in real life; and to go to the museum IN JAPAN. Damn.

Cute sketch, i like the weight that you drew with around the darker spots. Also I really like the looseness of the lines. ;v;

I told some of the staff there that it was a dream come true to be there... they were touched. (:
It was wonderful!

Would you believe on Halloween? Did you notice the beer labels at the café?
