Hellooooo~

I was at HoldfényCon  with :diconkarinamacgill: yesterday, a convention for fantasy, anime fans and gamers, we drew manga-portraits (and added our own style to it so it wasn't that manga-ish in the end XD) and had a great time. I will talk about it later some more and show some picts. ^^

But coming back home today I suddenly REAAALY wanted to draw that European 24 hour challange that had an interesting theme, namely every page must be a time of daymonth/year (whatever you wish), the first page must be a cover (two in one) and the last page must have the final world "the end".
It's been bugging me for a long while now and I haven't drawn comics with my Age of Phoenix characters for AGES and miss it badly. Best opportunity that I have 2 days off (almost)!

Time starts NOW~

I will post wips on my tumblr (when I'll have some): [link]
I wonder hwow far I will can go with it. ^^


***Edit***
Fun time is over. I got down 17 roughly sketched pages but I enjoyed it a lot. I also learnt about how to utilize my skills and times better so I'm happy now. Once I finish the comic, I'll release it here. Until that if you are interested a bit in the Age of Phoenix story a bit then here you can see the result: [link]

There was a fest-like event on [link]
The theme was traditional Japanese clothing that reflects on the Year of the Water Snake.
As an admin let me present now the entries we recieved. Enjoy~




_{As a complete side note: I have lots of things to say and it will come soon in another journal it just takes time to properly word it. And I'd like to thank you for the lovely comments and answers and favs too, they make me happy!
And I will answer those (and the notes) properly as well, I just have a lot to deal with right now. Which is partially good because it means lifesaving payed wooooork at the moment~
Anyway, thanks for the patience! ^^}

Hello everybody :3

Hope you are doing well, I feel very excited myself!

First of all the Archers comic 1st chapter is fully posted on Tapastic, you can read it here: [link]
_{I had a little problem with a double page so I had to twisted it because of a limited page-width restriction Tapastic has.
It was interesting to see how other people accomodated and used so skillfully the web-format, making wonderfully flowy compositions. Sadly I have to re-consider my posts there. my compositions are designed for traditional page- by page reading so it gets a little confusing there I believe.
Anyway, if you prefer SmackJeeves, you can also read it there: [link]}
We are working on the 2nd chapter with ~Keahrou. She does the art and I'm the backup with backgrounds.


I am working on the next chapter of the Tales of Toys comic, The tale of Kaguya-hime. I'm done with the rough scripts, soon gonna start to thumbnail it. ^o^
You can read the ongoing 1st chapter here: [link]


The next common project f the team is on the way. I participate with a 11 page coloured comic and I will do the editing as well, to put together the whole antology print-ready. So I will have to learn to handle InDesign ASAP fo that by middle the of April. XD;


There will be 2 AnimeCons in April as well and I was asked by friends to help them out with their table and in return I can sell my stuff too. I'm currently working on the "stuff", haha. XD
Aaaaand outside that I will also make "manga portraits" as commission there as a request of the organizers. ^^


Taking small commissions meanwhile, too, since these only will pay in APRIL, I need some income until that too. XD;


All in all I'm HELL BUSY currently, so sorry about my late replies. Until the end of April I'm probably like that. ^^'

Again, everybody have a good time and do your best in the Sanke Year!

Wooo, we've been working on this group hard in the past couple of days but I can officially anounce it by borrowing ~cobayanigiri's words.


ENGLISH

5Panels is a group of Hungarian comic creators who initiated the Association of Hungarian Comic Artists in 2012. Many of our members are already on Deviant Art for a long time, and now we realized it's time to represent ourselves here as a community, too. That's how our brand-new Group was founded



Our goal is to publish both our artist's collective and private works here too, in order to gain more and more attention from Hungarian and foreign comic-lovers. Anybody can be a member of the Group and we encourage everybody to do so!

-----

MAGYAR  

A 5Panels egy magyar képregényesekből álló alkotói közösség, mely 2012-ben létrehozta a Magyar Képregényalkotók Kulturális Egyesületetét. Többen közülünk már régóta tagjai a Deviant Art közösségnek, de most elérkezettnek láttuk az időt, hogy mint csapat is bemutatkozzunk az oldalon. Így jött létre a 5Panels Group

 

Célunk, hogy itt is közzétegyük a csapat közös kiadványait és a csapattagok egyéni rajzait, így minél több hazai és külföldi képregény-rajongóhoz juthasson el a hírünk. Bátorítunk mindenkit, hogy csatlakozzon a grouphoz, hiszen amellett, hogy közelebbről megismerhetitek Magyarország talán legaktívabb képregényes csapatát, a megfelelő mappákba ti is feltölthetitek saját képregényeiteket stílustól, témától függetlenül. Szívesen segítünk képregényes tanácsokkal, kritikával is, cserébe örömmel fogadjuk, ha alkotóink karaktereiről készült fan artokkal bombáztok minket

First of all, I've joined another comic site, Tapastic that looks like an exciting place with friendly people and supportive of online comicers. :3
You can find me here: [link]
I've also joined their PPP program in which they even pay after pageviews (You can read more here: [link] )
So go go and check out mah stories, off with ya~
XD

_{*From now on I will post all my comics on both sites. But since Tapastic supportes more weekly updates and I like more posting full chapters then I do it this way: on Tapastic I update weekly and on SmackJeeves I will only post when the whole chapter is done so it's all the perfect for me. ^^}

Tales of Toys
Some of you may remember this post earlier.

This comic was published in Hungarian some while ago, but now I got permission to upload it in English!
The story contains stand-alone chapters about the different toys in that particular children's room. But once all the little side stories are done, there is a final chapter where all stories link together and there is a great evil lies beneath to fight against! D=
Haha, well right I'm seriously debating if I should go on with the next chapter of this one, the story of Kaguya-hime and the Dragon or start a longer, completely different comic instead, the Prey and Hunter...
Anyway, here you go to read the comic (updates on Sundays): [link]


Prey & Hunter

I have this idea years ago, I only need a few more concepts, the story is full in my head, not even too complicated, neither is the style...
It's just that it's about 60-100 pages alltogether so it's a bit longer project, that's why I hesitate. Once I start I want to make sure I finish before start sth else.

But hell I'm really fired up and determinate to get some work done, I've been meditating on these for a long now. XD

Hey there

ENG
Do you remember the Archers comic I was working on previously?
Well I have started to release it on SmackJeeves. I will update on Mondays and Saturdays, stay tuned.

CLICK HERE: [link]

For those who prefer read comics as full chapters - no worries. I will tell in a journal when I'm done so you can enjoy it in one go. ^^
_{And sorry if I make mistakes at times this is my first upload on SmackJeeves, the surface is pretty new yet. ^^'}

HUN
Az Íjászok magyar kiadásával kapcsolatban sajnos még nincs végleges infó, de vagy online a 5Panels honlapján vagy nyomtatásban, de előbb-utóbb lesz megjelenés.

Hello everybody! First of all Happy New Year for everybody~
Though Jan 1st never really strike me as "new year" for some reason, I can relate more to the Lunar New Year (ber 10th this year) as a new begining for some reason. So expect more updates around that time.

See you around~ ^^

FaceBook l 5Panels team l Tumblr

The Mondocon last week was really nice, the presentation turned out well for me despite of the little troubbles occured (like me leaving the pictures home 8D; ). There were people interested in it and asking question in the end (that's always a good sign :3).

Right now I have 2 strict deadlines to meet until the begining of November, so I'm really busy until that. That means I'm going to be probably slow on keeping up with DA.

But I'm somewhat more active on Tumblr though, little rambles and occational sketches. I'm developing my Shodai story and finalizing many of the characters, naming them (gosh, I have so many of them D= ).

I'm also working on my English and Japanese language skills - Japanese for my college degree and English for my story (and both for my personal satisfaction and joy X3).  I have a partner now in both what makes things easier and more enjoyable.

Allright off with me, daily duties awaits before jumping to the comic page inkings. I wanted to share a cultural joke and ask a question about it but gotta save that for later. Too bad, I was really curious about your experiences on the matter.

CHEERS *waves*

FaceBook l 5Panels team l Tumblr

Yepp, I have both now. (Actually I've had Facebook since 1st Apr 2011, but I hesitated to use up until recently)

Facebook
I created it because I know "every one has FaceBook" so I figured it's a good idea to let people who are interested in my works acces it easier.
I post work-related pictures there. Most of the things you can see here, too so there won't be big surprises there.


Tumblr
Originally I wanted it for work as well but recently I figured I just need a place where I can "fool around", be less strict about quality and art. Also found many interesting people to follow there so it seems it's a great source of inspiration and resources , too.
I post fanarts, personal, emotional, random fun things.
Well... fanarts, sketches & emotional, personal things - these things were a bit touchy subjects for me for personal reasons, that's why I avoid post them here. But after 1,5 years it seems I'm over fretting over it. XP;

Note:

• If you are looking for fanarts, type "fanart" in the searchbar


• If you are looking for picts that related to my Age of Phoenix story type "shodai" in the searchbar because that's the work title of that story. _{it comes from "shougun and daimyou" reffering to the two main characters.}

Yepp I've been seemingly inactive (man I see practically every people write those journals about "sorry that i was so inactive", lol), but it's not true. I just don't have finished pieces to update here is all.
The thing is that I wanted to do something about my passivity already but I was a little stucked since my rule is: not to post things that doesn't show skill and effort, or just too repeptitive, even if good quality. And I still refuse to spam this gallery with crap even if it means I don't update frequently.
Now that I'm coming out from a short but messy illness I managed to think over some things, decide and move on.
Now I just gotta keep up with my ongoing projects because I'm a bit late on some, hehe.
By the end of the year I'll be able to finish some projects (3 collab comics for publishing) and get into my own story, I'm really excited about it!

Cheers for everybody.

Does anybody happen to knwo "Biker Mice from Mars"?
A friend of mind is looking for a place to download/buy it. She said she already ordered the series but they only have the 1st season. I'm not so sure how many season it already has alltogether. Does anyone have an idea where could she get it?

Thanks a lot!

As for what am I doing away of DA.
Well i was busy with some commissions that I was requested not to post. I was planning, plotting my story, did some minor practices for that (I might put some together in a sketch dump later), watching shows and cartoons a LOT (compared to previous years when I didn't watch anything at all). Uhm, and I wish I had PS2 with me, I'd love to play some exciting good games but I only have them on PS.

Oh right, I also was screwing with my own story (big thanks to ~GemiDonnie and ~Heiros for that XD) and pushed my samurai characters into modern era for the lolz. The shogun now is a "buisness man" involved in underground stuffs, the daimyous are either gangsters, cops or just commoners here and the whole takes place in the US. XD
Nah, it doesn't mean I will change anything in the original story, I'm just messing with my characters for the fun.

Aside that I'm working on 2 comics right now. One will be only aviable in Hungary, published and printed since it is a collab work with a Hungarian comic team, the 5Panels. I'll post some char reference at least cause i have quite fun with them. I'm talking about these guys:


Another project is I'm about to finish is also a collab but hopefully will be aviable to read online, it's part of a longer story called "Archers".


I guess this is all right now. Holiday, vacation...? Dunno. Mabye at the end of summer or september perhaps.
Everybody, enjoy yourselves some~

_{COME OOOON~ Where are the awesome dragon journal skins?! I couldn't find any, so I just used one of the Water skins.
I want cool dargon skins! *pouty*}

ANYWAY
2012 is the Year of  Water Dragon in the Chinese Zodiac. They call it as "Black Dragon" too because water element is associated with black colour.
It starts on the Jan 23th 2012.
I've heard that it's gonna be full of lot of succes and lot of fail, one gotta be daring and not retreat!
And you won't have much time to think over decisions - have to act quickly.
Also because of the Water element it will be time for connections and relationships as well. (YAAAY)
That's what I heard and read so far.
Hey, anyone out there - do you have some good info about it? The only thing I found were all some confusing, difficult Feng-Shui stuffs. What happened to the other sites from last year? o__o


I'm a  Dog in Chinese Zodiac.
It says since Dogs and Dragons are mortal enemies (LIES XD) it will be a  problematic period for Dogs and can be lot of health issues. Wonderful~ XD;
And that Dog shouldn't be overly stubborn this year? ...Stubborn? Me? Noooooo~
And this is the 2nd oraculum system that tries to tell me that I have a big miserable period up until my age of 35 and BIIIG succes after that. Thank you very much - just gotta survive those years first XD;
I won't belive you astrology and FengShui, NOWAY!


Hey, there is a video I got from a friend that tells you WHY YOU NEED TO FAIL (no kiddin' )
[link]


Though Originally I came to post commission-info but that have to wait for a little while until I work out some things first~

Now everybody go and do their best this year!
