ETA Note: (and thank you, Soopa Bunnie) The faces are Obata-sensei's works, drawn by grid (which, for those who are wondering, is only the art class version of tracing). Each body was drawn without grids, but by looking at examples from other manga panels. Scanned, cleaned, and colored by Photoshop. Clothing texture and Akira's hair were by pattern stamps. Background wisteria stock-photo isolated, copied and transformed into cut-out.
