Five Games I'd Play If I Weren't So Fucking Poor

omg a non comic post

WELL, being unemployed kinda sucks. Especially when you're a video game reviewer. It means you can't play new video games unless someone else buys them for you.

And right now, there's suddenly a large pouring in of good games. Augh life why do you do this to me?! Let's just start this list so I can continue bawing.

wtf there's already a naked man
worst lesbian comic evr imo
Edit: OH GOD i forgot to draw nipples on him

Augh, I can not get over how happy I am about panel four.

Anyways, some neat background info about Cosette is in here, and finally the real reason why she's going to a boarding school. And hey, two new characters!

Job hunt still sucks. But fortunately Vexing's new home will be up and running soon. c: So I'm at least happy about that. And then I can get affiliates! Oh yey.

Not much else is new, so I'll end it here. See you next post.

Lynn, why are you poking two fingers together for female masturbation?
You are completely off.

Yep, starting the week off with a classy note. At least it's diving a bit into the plot now, amirite?

Sadly the job search is still going poorly. But it's only been one week. I have enough to pay this month's bills, but next month, if I don't have a job, I'll be in trouble. I hate to be that person, but any support, be it love, sharing this blog/comic, or monetary would be VERY appreciated at this time. As much as I love being an artist, I don't think I want to venture into the "starving artist" stereotype very much, hahah.

Anywho. I'll see you later.

Eeeeeeitssopretty

SO PINK!

My friend is pretty good at coloring manga pages. So today I tossed her my first Vexing page.

Long story short I have a new colorist. <3 Thank you Courtney M!

Anyway I would love to write a post but my apostrophe key is not working. Meaning typing is very awkward because I can not use contractions. So maybe I will just post something later. Hopefully see you then.

NOTE: Septembre is the name of the volume. The title of the graphic novel itself is Vexing, still.

Just who is this mystery woman? You'll have to wait til next week to find out. Anyways, I was done early (again) so I thought I'd be nice and post it. But now I'm starting building a buffer, so I will -not- be posting them early from this point on.

Since this is the start of chapter 1, I drew a nice little sketch of one of the important players coming in soon. I like the idea of having as a sketch instead of a mouse-inked shot, because quite honestly this is one of the best drawings I've done in a while. There is a NSFW version as well, but I will wait to post that up when Vexing has its own website. You'll just have to wait for that as well. <3

The flower shown is an Arabian Jasmine. It's the national flower of the Philippines. It's used in many folk medicines, is used for Jasmine tea, and is used for hair adornments and leis. It's the symbol of devotion and eternal love.

Anywho, I'll see you guys tomorrow. Sorry for those waiting on more video game reviews-- there is a reason why I'm taking a while to review Time Hollow (hint: It's awful.)

Because Every Nerd Wants to Learn Japanese

I'm sure that every other person out there who loves anime, manga, and other various Japanese things wants to learn the native language of the art they love. I always have a good laugh when I hear some nerd saying things like, "I'm learning Japanese by watching anime! I'M STUDYING LOL!"

First off, most Japanese used in anime is very informal and is therefore rude to use in an everyday setting (unless you're going to be talking with very close friends). Second, this does nothing to teach you how to read Japanese, so if you're planning to go there, you'll end up being a very annoying tourist, asking everyone what a simple sign means. Third, if you're just learning on your own through anime, you are relying on your own inferring skills, so simply put, you're going to mess up someway somehow. There might be a grammatical rule that you don't understand, difficulties with pronunciation, amongst other issues.
