This comic I created especially for Kodansha Morning Competition. It’s 23 pages long and took me 2 months (!!), I realized that sounded atrocious in term of speed, but this comic has gone through various transformation, to begin with, it was started as a completely different story and was going to be almost 50 pages long, which I realized, I won’t be able to finish before deadline. Then it turned into this current story, which still have a lot of pages redone/reword over and over. And I was under the pressure to prove myself, my skills, I can’t say that I was happy while working on this, I was downright paranoid, even after finishing it, I felt bad every time I looked at it, and I wanted to hibernate till March 2008.

I long for the day that I can JUST draw comic without this constant needing to prove myself worthy to everyone else. It’s tiring.

anyway, here’s some samples, unless you are on my lj friendlist, then I presumed you have read the whole comic and I apologize for duplicated contents, otherwise, enjoy, I’ll make the whole comic available here when the result of competition is out. (and I don’t score anything)

I swear this is the last time I’m looking through this, or else I might have a nervous breakdown.

I’ve finished 30 pages draft for new Dream Eater, I’ll start working on the pages now while drafting other 50 pages comic and I also started planning new webcomic. I’ve been good :3

I find that I like drafting with black ball-point pen more than pencil or other kind of pen, it was fast & clean, easier on the eyes when I go back to them later. I also could do much faster with it and didn’t have to worry about erasing or smudging. one pen one notebook and I’m good to go.

My plan until at least the end of this year, none of them made me any money, labor of love, at least I’ll die happy.

- “Me and My Food” - 7 pages, almost done, I’ll start posting them soon.

- “Dream Eater” - 30 pages, a start of new arc for this story, should be cool, in the process of writing script/drafting.

- “Shoot the moon” - 50 pages (tentative title) self-contained story, I wanted to go crazy with this one, a fantasy story full of every cliche I love. On designing and writing state.

- “Baby” - 5 pages, this story is planned for 200 pages book to be shopped around in case anyone interested, (if all else failed, it will go online eventually) all planning and writing is done, just need to start drafting :3

- mysterious webcomic that might or might not happen - I have a few stories going at the moment, deciding which one to work on first.

- mysterious Snarry* doujinshi - that already in drafting state, out of the blue, cut the queue of all comics I should draft first, hohohoho

* if you don’t know what this is, it’s not for you XD

I have

massive artist’s block

I just wanted to draw something really really cool for my portfolio, maybe 8-10 pages, part action part dialogue, something that would wow everyone who see it, making them feel bad for having to turn me down but I think I’m trying too hard or aiming too high, my head is totally blank.
