AB - Ep 4 Sneak Preview
When your help is suddenly wanted, and having that cute girl pleading with you feels oh, so good XDDGuuuyyys I think this episode is going to be gold because there will be MOMENTS. I hope you're looking forward because I am SO pumped ;DDD
AB - Ep 4 Sneak Preview
Ok, so honestly, this story was rigged so that the two main leads will have copious amounts of time together XDAlso, I realise that I'm getting better (and faster) at drawing anatomy without using reference, which I'm ecstatic about *woohoo* I can't believe its taken me almost 1 whole year of almost non-stop drawing every day to get to this point though. That's a shitload of time spent practising anatomy D: Granted, it's more like half of that time, since the other half is spent colouring.Anyway enjoy this sneak peek / sketc...

AB - Ep 3 Behind The Scenes
A little peek into my 'facial expressions' process. I love me some evil looking men TT v TTSometimes I get it right on the first try. Other times, it takes me several attempts to nail the expression, but when I do, it's very satisfying! =)
Announcement - NSFW Tier
Taking a break from AB to make a casual, semi-announcement post.For the longest time, I've been toying with the idea of opening up a $5 NSFW tier. Basically, this will comprise of MPL / AB characters (Tora/Poppy, Soldier/Princess, etc.) in non-canon (completely unrelated to the actual comic):- NSFW sketches- NSFW short comic scenes- Polled NSFW sketches- Or maybe even sketch requests of other charactersA sample piece is the (censored) sketch above, posted 2 times a month (or more if time allows).And yes, there will be gratuitous sex (and lo...
AB - Ep 3 Sneak Preview
I've been having itchy red hives all over my body for the last few days, which I suspect is an allergic reaction to a new prescription drug that I started taking (and promptly stopped as soon as the hives appeared) V___VIt's nothing serious, but the itching is extreeeeemely distracting and I can barely focus on drawing, so progress has been slow.That aside, I'm still having tons of fun working on the new AB episode. I am STOKED that the response on Webtoon has been great. Like seriously, it feels so fulfilling when people are enjoyi...

AB - Ep 2 Sneak Preview
So, Ep 1 took me 3 weeks (although I had a few errand days in between) But I reduced that by 5 days for Ep 2. Not that much LOL but it's an improvement. At least now I've got a workflow that speeds things up. My brain is SO obsessed with producing the episodes, it's all I ever think or talk about. But it's a great feeling to have :DAnyways enough of rambling. I DO have things I want to talk about, but I don't want to spoil the episode too much so here's a sneak peek instead X)
AB - Behind The Scenes
Practice sketch of our soldier in his tighty whiteys. I usually draw very rough outlines for the bodies because they're wearing clothes anyway. But sketching out the entire body will produce a more accurate anatomy so I'm trying to get into the habit of doing that.Also, I'm thinking he's slightly less bulky than Tora (or equal), but taller, around 6"3 - 6"4.
AB Episode 1 Update + PDF Download
Download PDF hereDownload Full JPG hereHey guys, I'm still alive but preeeeetty exhausted because AB is a lot more work than MPL is >:B Although I did take a day off from drawing yesterday and binged on smutty manga which was fun XDAnyway, here's the very first Asura's Bride update. Hope you like it!
Announcement - Asura's Bride Ep 1 Launching 15th July, Sunday
I'm ready to post! I'll be doing 3 biweekly updates and then 3 weekly updates to make up total 6 episodes required by 13th September, so stay tuned =)
AB - Ep 1 Sneak Preview
Some panels I've done so far. I think this watercolour style fits the story theme more than my usual one! So even though it's taking much more time, I'm adamant on using this style.I'm a little worried because I'm spending more time on this than I expected. Many things cropped up last week that ate into my time - my flatter left without notice, and I had to get hold of a new one. Plus the comic launch pretty much ate into my entire weekend. BUT I'm doing this whole-heartedly and throwing my entire self into the comic cre...
AB - Ep 1 Sneak Preview
The opening panel for Ep 1.This took me WAY too long to colour, but I'm really happy with it. I'll have to develop pipelines to speed up the process, fingers crossed I'll find a faster way to produce this!

AB - Sneak Preview
Because of time constraints, I create the character designs as I go along with the episodes. I'll share more designs in a bit when everything is more polished.Btw, the gods of comics must be watching over meXDDD This is just a photo I took of the original Manga Studio sketch (to show the hubs), RIGHT before it crashed and I hadn't hit the "save" button yet D:
Announcement: MPL Hiatus
Just to make things official: I will be pausing MPL for the time it takes to create Asura's Bride for the contest.Before starting, I thought long and hard about this. It was a VERY difficult decision to make because of all the repercussions involved. I even had a long discussion with my hubs who encouraged me to go for it, if only because it's an opportunity that's hard to come by.The thing is, the prize money is really important to me because if I were to win anything at all, that money goes straight to my full-time-comic-artist fu...
"Asura's Bride" Cover Unveil
I'm all set for the contest with my title, story outline and script all written out :D Here's the cover unveil which I'll be posting on Webtoon, probably this Sunday :3*IMPORTANT* MPL will be on hiatus for around 3 months, and I will be posting updates to Asura's Bride instead. I know a number of you were originally here for MPL though, so do let me know your thoughts on this!
AB - Behind The Scenes
Sketching for the cover page / thumbnail. I'm really really happy with how this one turned out! Whathisname has a neck tattoo covering his entire neck because tattoo is life, lol. It's supposed to be an oriental peony, or some flower XDAfter inking this, I'll be sending it to my flatter so I can get it coloured ASAP. I'm very nervous because I've never done colouring for this character style in a comic. I'll see how it plays out. Like I mentioned earlier, if I'm unable to meet the deadline, I'll have to drop out ...
AB - Behind The Scenes
And now for the princess! I'm really happy to finally get to draw long flowing hair for a change. And pretty dresses :3
Webtoon Contest
If you're following me on Instagram, you might know that I'm thinking of taking part in the Webtoon contest. I'm still undecided, but I'm making some sketches to test things out and see how fast I'm able to go :DI'll make an official announcement sometime later, but for now here's a sketch I did of the main character. It's going to be a romance set in ancient China.Also! No, this is not Tora XDFeedback is most welcome ^____^
(OLD VERSION) MPL - Ep 19
CONTAINS SPOILERS - READ AT YOUR OWN RISKI received feedback that it wasn't clear who Poppy was texting and who sent her that photo (it was Tora) so I updated the episode :DP.S. I am VERY prone to careless mistakes so if I ever make any, feel free to let me know!
(OLD VERSION) MPL - Ep 19
CONTAINS SPOILERS - READ AT YOUR OWN RISKUploading early today!Brace yourselves, ladies. There won't be any more Tora for awhile ( ≧Д≦) BUT I'll still throw in more eye-candy, rest assured (ﾉ^ヮ^)ﾉ*:・ﾟ✧I think I pretty much nailed the look that I want for colouring now (۶* ‘ꆚ’)۶” It's not my ultimate, ideal look. But it's a balance of aesthetics + practicality (something that looks nice but is relatively easy and fast to produce).It's difficult to focus on improving everything at one go. So what I d...
MPL - Behind The Scenes
I feel like I've been neglecting my girl a lot XD Here are some conceptual sketches of Pops in possible future outfits. She's definitely not the feminine, demure sort, rofl. Come to think of it, It's funny how most MFCs aren't. At least, not for indie comics. I guess it makes them more relatable? (Me on the other hand - I am as comfortable in girly, feminine dresses as I am in minimalistic pantsuits :D)In other news, I'm finally done with that big family event I was talking about.It's such a relief to get back to my dail...
MPL - Speed Video
I don't know why, I picured a very Final Fantasy-esqe setting for this. Hence the music! :3

Comic Dub Live!
OMG it's finally here!!!! I'm SO excited! The voice actors are terrific. It's only the beginning, and I am so looking forward to when Poppy and Tora start talking to each other <3333 Hope you guys like it too!All credit (except story and art of course) goes to CrownieVA who has been so kind and obliging with all my 'overenthusiastic mommy' requests XD
Tora Sketch
He's doing what he does best - manspreading.
Angeloz to Narin name change (Revised)
#1 Just a heads up that I'll be changing the name Angeloz (the fictional country this world is set in), to Narin. For those curious about the change, Angeloz was just a placeholder name, and sounds too similar to Los Angeles (purely coincidental with no relation whatsoever) XDNarin is a Mongolian word which means 'secret'. Nothing major, but it has to do with the history of the country :D---#2 I've been redrawing the 'Tora faces' in older episodes, so if you'd like to see the revised faces, you can check out Episode ...
