Your Questions About Japanese Artwork

George asks…
How can i tell if my King Dragun Ultimate Rare is a fake?
I purchased an ultimate rare King Dragun from Ebay. At first i thought it was a fake because it is a lot more flimsy then all the other cards i have; but i read that they are suppose to be more flimsy and thinner then regular cards. It has the gold foil lettering and stars. The background of the artwork, the border and the little japanese symbol on the top right hand corner is holo as well. But the actual monster is not holo. So does that mean its fake?

Artie answers:
Um dude wile an ultimate rare is indeed more flimsy the whole monster will be holo but more silvery does it look like this pic cause that's the real one http://www.dacardworld.com/gaming/yu-gi-oh-flaming-eternity-king-dragun-ultimate-rare-fet-036

Lisa asks…
Do you have to be Japanese or reside in Japan to be a Pixiv artist?
It's because of how image boards like Danbooru wouldn't allow non-Pixiv artworks

Artie answers:
No, not really. I don't see how location or ethnicity would matter.

Michael asks…
Twentieth century Japanese oil paintings, ceramics, porcelain wares and other artworks are considered to be?
motifs
national treasures
bargains
history

Artie answers:
I think you have to consider their value on an individual basis. It is very hard to make a blanket statement about a whole category of artwork.

Sandra asks…
Special Japanese Single CD Jewel Cases?
Hi Helpers:
I searched all over the internet, but it seems like nobody but me needs this.
So Japanese Singles have that kind of CD jewel cases different from any American CD cases.
American Album and Single: Thick edge, Both back and front artwork, front artwork is held by a fold-back folder in the front piece.
Japanese Album: Same as American ones
Japanese Single: THIN edge, NO back artwork, and front artwork is held by a thin fold-back folder in the front piece.
If I'm not clear enough, maybe you should take a look at this

You can see, it's much like an American album except the back piece is one entire piece, no where to insert artwork paper between CD and the plastic behind. And the whole case is thinner and slightly longer.
Now if you are clear what I'm mentioning about, here is my question:
I need replacements of those kind of cases. Where can I buy those and what's the name for that kind of case? I searched (again) all over the internet and I got nothing but cases with no artwork holder (which are thin tho), or thick album cases.
Anybody, especially who knows about Japanese cds, help me please.
Thanks a lot for your reading.

Artie answers:
No idea.

Helen asks…
Top Tatto artist in the DMV area?
I am looking for traditional Japanese artwork with explosive color, detail and everything. I do not care how far it is in the DMV and price does not matter. I want to get good quality on my body and that is all that matters to me. I would like to get a leg sleeve of Japanese Fu Dogs.
-Thank You
