Hey guys, I'm back. I've closed commissions because I really just wanted to do my own things for awhile. And one of those things is getting my comic updating again.
I'm really sorry about a long time of silence. I think I just had a lot of my mind and I covered it by taking so many commissions. My comic seems received well for the most part, but I guess I'm a little upset that I have so many friends and family that don't read or don't even know it exists (or don't even know I draw). This is not me being upset with my skill level.... I know I'm an amateur that needs to grow as I go... but that feel a total lack of acknowledgment from friends and family. Like, people who talk to me, come over to my house, I work with.... yeah.
IT'S A REALLY WEIRD THING TO BE UPSET ABOUT I KNOW. But it just got to me. It's like no matter how much I mention it or post on social media, they must kinda overlook me.
I've been over it for awhile now. Just needed to wrap up some things to clear my workload.
So thank you for your patience. Thank you for sticking around. Just thank you for being here.
It's been awhile because I've been busy with commissions, but another 5 pages of MMP are right around the corner. That said, I have opened a Patreon!
This will include special commission prices, and early previews to the next pages of MMP. You can see as they get worked on step-by-step artwise for only $1. Or get them completely finished (text and all) before they go live here for $3.
More rewards than just comic pages though. More sketches, full res drawings, .psd files and features. Just check it out!
Have some random sketches I've done on some down time~
Next semester of college has now started up. I'll be optimistic this time too, and believe it all looks pretty easy so I shouldn't freak out over any of the work.
Very proud MMP has reached 50 pages. 10 more pages and we'll get to the next chapter too. Been practicing drawing Miel and Zak a bit more cause they'll finally get more show time.
In other thoughts, I really want to start up yet another comic. But I just dunno if I'm ready. BL genre, which there's like 1001 stories of that here (and I read quite a bit :'D ) so I feel kind of overwhelmed by the already great stories in that genre and wondering if I could pull off anything unique. Hmm... =n= Well, it really will just come down to my time and how I move forth.
5 pages up tomorrow! Thank you for your patience. Aiming for 2 more updates before the end of the month at least. Holidays don't really feel as busy as I thought they'd be.
Other news, if you would like free art and have a facebook, I do have a raffle going on! Just like and possibly share for chance(s) to win!

I'm in the last 2-3-ish weeks of the semester. The whole college experience is a fog to me still, and I'm still just floating along doing whatever I hear I need to do. Passing all classes with 90+ though, so the semester should wrap up nicely.
Still no job. Commissions are going well, but are delayed because of the assignments in this last leg of the semester.
And then I should get to spamming updates more for MMP! I'd like to aim for 15 more pages before 2016 ends. xP
Thanks all for sticking around. Here's another picture that got done during inktober. I didn't do all 30 days because of life. Oh well...
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I had 2... x.x;
Next update is going to be delayed a little while longer. Still a bit off trying to make some money and I guess college is starting to get serious...??? I'm so confused. It feels like I'm learning nothing, but I'm passing, and suddenly quizzes? What...what is happening? What is the quiz going to be over? "Common Sense" I've received as an answer. Welp. Ok then....
Also the main reason the pages are delayed because I'm actually getting commission requests in!!! :0 And sadly, that pays me. My comic doesn't.... v.v; I don't start a patreon because I have no content for incentives.
With that, I leave you with one of my inktober doodles. They're like my big daily wind down this month. 2nd day I did a cute picture of Leche. c:
Hope everyone else is doing well! Enjoy the nice weather coming in! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
And yeah, for a test over "common sense" no one made a perfect score. But I feel like the questions were a bit too much up for interpretation? Like "is it better to multitask or focus on one subject?" and the way it's worded you'd think one subject... but some people are better at multitasking? But then some who multitask would screw up if they don't do it well. MORE DETAILS NEEDED.
Next pages are pretty much done. Should have another 4 or 5 pages before the end of the month! Here's a sketch layout of the next page. c:
Classes are going well I suppose. I don't understand college yet, so I just kinda do whatever I think is correct and if I don't get an F, I guess it's good. :'D
Car is in the shop. I'm still open for commission if anyone is willing to help with that. >>; http://fav.me/d6cpg7c
Thanks, I get told that a lot. XD The comic was originally just suppose to be sketches with talk balloons so the pages could be done extra quick. But I'm glad I decided to refine them more. I'm learning a lot!
2 updates this month! That's 10...or 11.... pages!
I had a fun time at an anime convention with my best friend coming to visit me from out of state. I got a commission of Mew Milk while I was there! I need to scan it to share.
Started college this month. All my classes seem pretty easy for now, as they're just some basic stuff I need to take for my major. Well....one kind of worries me because I can barely understand the professor and he kinda just rambles on for four hours while stating "this is all in the powerpoint I'll give you all." ... which he won't give us until the week after next.... I'm just really glad I understand how to convert IPs into binary prior to this...
Car collision happened. Insurance covering it. it sucks. Unneeded stress. I do have to pay a $200 deductible so my commissions are more open than ever. http://fav.me/d6cpg7c
And I won a nice auction awhile back and got a picture of Ethan done. There's no colored pictures I've posted of him or Emmet yet, but I gave them to the artist and she did a fantastic job! http://unerii.deviantart.com/
Going to a con with a buddy is the best :) . Did you go as a cosplayer this time too?
Wish you luck on your academic journey! May I ask what do you major in? I wonder if people will still remember by the time they hand out the powerpoint haha!
Ohh man I'm really sorry to hear you've got involved in a collison!
I hope you're alright? No injuries or anything? D:
Glad to hear insurances will cover most of the damage! Still... You can do a lot with $200 :( that really sucks to hear :/
Heeeyy thats a really nice one you got! Congratz on winning! :D
Looks like you got a really uh, "exciting" week, huh?
Hang in there, Rina XD
Good to hear from you, stay in touch! ;)
Yes, I cosplayed Mirei from Digimon Cyber Sleuth. My friend was Amethyst from Steven Universe. Both went over really well and the con was small but super nice to attend. <3 I got myself my Melynx plushie from Monster Hunter.
I'm majoring in Cyber Security. I've worked as an IT as a help desk, so I'd really like to see another side to the field.
Yeah, the collision sucked. No, I'm not injured... was really worried about shoulder pains (driver side was hit) but that cleared up in 2 days on its own.
