I MADE SOME HOURLY COMICS YOU CAN READ THEM IF YOU'D LIKE
So, y-yeah, this was technically today's comic at Johnny Wander. But it's like three pages long! And I worked really hard on it! So you can read a higher-res version of it here too, if you don't read Johnny Wander. (and it's cool if you don't, I don't mind.)

huh, the cake kinda looks like it's covered in pepperoni instead of strawberries...

I was kind of nervous with this comic, since Ananth and I have made such a deliberate point of not discussing our relationship, or really the fact that we're dating at all. And this being the arc of an entire day, it has all those in-between things that we avoid in the regular comic. BUT REALLY, I AM FRETTING FAR TOO MUCH. I just hope our respective parents won't be too alarmed by the fact that we share a bed. eh hehh..

OH BUT LET ME TELL YOU HOW EXCITING IT WAS TO GO TO NICK MAGAZINE: SO EXCITING. yaytime and goraina were fantastic hosts! And we also walked away with a few handfuls of Avatar comics, which was so super awesome.

And finally: seriously, who feeds combos to their dog.

... ... ...


ALSO HEY SINCE WE'RE HERE, I'll share this with you guys! We got our first pass colors on the Maw! I'm not totally pleased with the everything so these won't be the finalized colors, but OH MAN it's so cool to see everything come together!


WOOOO

	N-no--! I'm normally not very fast--! This one went unusually quickly though, I'm not sure why? Especially since it's technically three comics long. (*YES LET'S TRAIN TO BECOME THE STRONGEST*) 8D Yaaayy, thank you! 8D (Reply to this) (Parent)

	What are combos? Additionally MAW LOOKS AWESOME! Just kind of pinkpurple. Pretty jealous of a day full of sushi, cake, and avatar! That's the kind of thing the best days are made of. (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

aidosaur 2009-10-09 01:44 am UTC (link)

Combos are... pretty terrible? They're basically hollow pretzel-bites full of artificial cheese. They look like this. Long story short, they are things no dog should ever be eating. Especially not a dog in a moving vehicle. D8 YAAYY! Yeah, the colors are going to get tweaked. Since the photos were taken in artificial light, we're not 100% on what they actually look like. BUT YES, IT WAS A PRETTY GR8 DAY 8D (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Hahaha, omnilugia just asked the same thing. XD Combos are basically hollow pretzel-bites full of artificial cheese. They look like this. I realized, they're probably a localized American/northeast terrible snack food thing. Also: pretty gross. D: (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)(Expand)

	The Maw looks fantastic! I secretly like how you drew Ananth with his hat on even when he's sleeping. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	aidosaur 2009-10-09 06:22 pm UTC (link)
	Heheheeee, I'm excited people noticed that. XD He doesn't actually, but no one'd recognize him if I drew him without the hat. XD (Reply to this) (Parent)

	The Maw looks great! I think the purple tongue is a little off-putting for me, I'd rather a redder one! I liked your hourly. I'm enjoying all the ones all the artists on my friends list have been doing! :) (Reply to this) (Thread)

	aidosaur 2009-10-09 06:24 pm UTC (link)
	Awesome! Thanks for the feedback, I'll make sure they change the tongue color in the final production. Thanks! I've been really digging all of the hourlies people have been coming up with. I'm glad I finally got to do one! 8D (Reply to this) (Parent)

	"Nerding about Avatar" I have a friend with whom every time we talked on the phone or got together we'd inevitably do this during the show's run. And we're both guys, over 30, with successful careers and healthy social lives. But when it comes to Avatar, we turn into little girls. :P (Reply to this) (Thread)

	aidosaur 2009-10-09 06:32 pm UTC (link)
	Hahaha! Yeah, the weird thing about Avatar is that all of the fans I've seen seem to be educated adults between the ages of 18 and 40. (Me and my roommates are no exception--!) (Reply to this) (Parent)

Maaaawwww Oh man this is really neat seeing it come together, I'm all excited to get mine! I really thought the hourly comic was very fun, looks great. Haha lololol I don't even think my parents know that Z and I share a bed when we're together, among other things, pffft. But I wouldn't worry about it so much, so, stop fretting! Oh yeah, because I didn't have time to comment last time, I totally loved the mini story previously, I was quite happy to hear that we might see them again :D (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I know, I've never been witness to a process like this, it's so awesome being in the middle of it. :D Ahaha, thanks! Y-yeah, I know our parents assume these things, but they've never been overly TOLD. >_> I'm sure it'll be fine... Awh thanks! Yeah, I'd like to do more stuff with them! They're so cute. :D (Reply to this) (Parent)
