Finding anime fanart?

[thistlechaser]

Hey, you people out there! Is there some trick to finding good fanart sites? Japanese or English, I don't much care.

I've spent all day Googling for Dear Boy fanart (searched for ' "dear boy" fanart ' and ' "dear boy" fan ') with no good results at all. I know there has to be some out there, the series is just too slashy and too liked by Get Backer and HP fans not to have some fan sites. But how do you find them?

Is there some super secret place with links to good fanart sites of all themes? Is there a better search engine for looking for anime/fan stuff than Google? Is there some Japanese word I should include in my search?

Thanks!

I know nothing about fanart. However, http://www.we-love-anime.com/ is a great site for finding images for a LOT of different animes. But like I said, this isn't fanart so much as magazine photos and screen shots and other picures from god knows where, but they are still mighty fun too look at ;)

Umm... maybe I'm confusing this series with something else, but isn't the series called Dear Boys? An updated and more stylish boys-playing-basketball thing? You'll probably only find stuff on Japanese sites.

... actually, I just spent five minutes looking for such information and have come up with diddley. :\

Eh, Dear Boy*s*, yeah. Wonder if I searched for the right thing? I think I did...

Sloppy, sloppy me!

Sorry I couldn't come up with anything. I used to know of some Japanese fandom search engines with some English instructions, but I haven't used them in years and years. Maybe checking LJ interests for a community about it would work?

Good idea!

I've got a bunch of links to yaoi fan art and stuff. No 'Dear Boy' fan art though. Most of the pages are in Japanese.

Just tell me if you're interested and I'll assemble the links when I get the chance. :-)

Thank you, but I'm really only interested in it if I know the characters already, not just generic yaoi. Thanks anyway!

Okido. :-) Phew. Now I don't have to collect all those links. ;-)

I'm just a general yaoi fan. If it's nude, I'll probably like it.
