"Why don't you have any other skin color in your writing?" "I look forward to you drawing boys." I have been asked such a question all the time, but I am puzzled. Why?

It looks back on Men Xiaolei's creation process from 2006 to 2019. It contains hundreds of illustrations and four unofficial works.

At the end of the book, a long interview with Men Xiaolei herself is included. From her painting development to the opportunity to become a professional painter, the difficulties and changes encountered along the way, as well as her source of inspiration, painting process and materials, and then In the interview, she shared her personal life with readers.

Finally, this book invites the famous Japanese manga and illustrator Hisashi Eguchi, who has been deeply influenced by Men Xiaolei, and TANAKA MISAKI (たなかみさき), an emerging Japanese illustrator, to exchange views and analyze the door. The charm of Xiao Lei. For the binding part, the Traditional Chinese version enlarges the book format from 15cm x 21cm of the original Japanese version to 19cm x 26cm (about 1.5 times), so that readers can see the details of the work more clearly, and adopts the "threading glue" that allows the book to be flattened. The "installation" binding method allows cross-page illustration works to be spread out and fully appreciated, avoiding part of the work content being eaten up by the space between pages, and adding more collectibility. In addition, we also asked Men Xiaolei to paint a new and exclusive painting for the traditional Chinese version: She is inspired by a century-old handmade wooden barrel shop on Zhongshan North Road in Taipei, combining her unique feminine elements, music and magical imagery. In it, a fixed scene that transcends the era and sealed the time is created, printed on fine art paper into a large poster of 50cm x 70cm, for all Chinese book readers to collect. －－－－－－－－－－－－－－ －Prologue + Contents Preface －Artworks illustration works －Comics short comics: "City Of Darkness <Kowloon Walled City>", "The Artists", "Loser", "Lost Forever" －Little Thunder Interview －Interview with Katol Lo, designer of Katol Lo Interview －Eguchi Hisashi × Tanaka Misaki Special Talk 江口寿史&たなかみさき －Work List + Book list + Profile The work and bibliographic list included in this book -Epilogue postscript -------------------------------------------------- ---------- [SISTERHOOD LITTLE THUNDER ART BOOK] Author: Ray door Publisher: Facebook -------------------------------------------------- ---------- Author/Little Thunder Born in 1984, cartoonist and illustrator.
