Be true to yourself

Dave, 25, Hawaiian Samoan. Loves webcomics, art, baking, music and fanfiction. Working on my own webcomic but for now is settling on drawing comics and art for my fandoms!

[dzd3]

Got in to Naruto (husband reminded me I love it) and drew my husband as a leaf ninja.

[dzd3]

So little life update, found out I had a brain tumor that messed me up for a while (2021), had brain surgery (lost some memories in the process), had a seizure, was in a car accident, and now trying to reconnect the missing pieces in my life... fun times. At least I'm alive and can still bake, draw and write?

[dzd3]

Wow... I didn't believe my friend when she said I had tumblr.... but I do 😐. Gotta love brain surgery messing up memories...

I have to reblog, my mom was in an accident last night....need to reblog this.

My aunt was Facebook messaging her while my phone was dead. :(

[dzd3]

Ok slowly getting my shit together, but I am just adjusting to the schedule of my new job as well as everything else in my life. Which means I will be able to get back to drawing, which also means getting back to the comic! So I'm hoping to have at least a good portion done for October since it's been a while! Again thanks for you patience and support!

[dzd3]

Super happy to have found my better half and the man of my life.

[dzd3]

So I just wanna give a heads up, that it's gonna be a while before I can post the next few pages of the "The Money Maker". I just got a new job which will take up a lot of my time and I'm getting married next month, so with work and wedding plans, I apologize and feel bad that it'll be a while. But I'm not giving up this project! I will finish what I've started for Bella and all of you guys who loved the fic and Ziam! So worry not! Again it'll just be some time. :(

THIS HAD ME SO HYPE IN KINDERGARTEN🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[itsteesmallzhoe]

oh goodness , nostalgia 😰

[yeezussaves32]

Nostalgia just hit me so hard

[dzd3]

Oh my god, this is a blast from the past. I remember trying to jam out to this when I was young!

[dzd3]

Finally here with part 2! Sorry for the long wait!!! I have the next few panels already sketched out, just gotta find time to detail them up and color! Thank you all for being patient with me!

Also don’t forget to check out the fic if you haven’t read it, here’s the link!

http://archiveofourown.org/works/7017100/chapters/15974638

Last thing, this wouldn’t have been drawn if not for the fabulous lady who wrote the story! Check her out @ifigureditout or @deniallisstrong

[dzd3]

I just wanna say I’m sorry it’s taking so long! I basically have the next bit for “The Money Maker” done, but between my wedding planning, my birthday (a few days ago) and work, it’s been difficult to have time for drawing! I really hope you can all forgive me for the wait. I should have it up tonight or tomorrow!

Edit, will be done tomorrow!! I will get this damn next page up!!!

[dzd3]

Hi, Dave! Congrats on the Ziam comics! It's exciting to see that kind of work is still going on these days! :') I saw you said this is a new experience. Do you need any pointers? I don't make art myself, but I've read my fair share of those and know a thing or two about tumblr and how this website is problematic with images. I have a few suggestions, but I don't really wanna offer them if unsolicited. Keep up the good work! You're doing great! Cheers!

I’m always down for tips and advice. Since I’m typically only on tumblr via phone I’m not entirely sure how it is on the computer. But yes, I'm new to the comic thing and sadly once I posted the first pg, it seemed off when trying to view. Sadly I don't have any fancy art program, just ArtRage. Anyway, what things are you noticing?

[dzd3]

Alrighty, here’s Chapter 1 pg 1! “The Money Maker”

Everything drawn is coming from the story “The Money Maker” written by @deniallisstrong, for her blog @ifigureditout.

Here’s the link for the story itself!

[dzd3]

Me: Gonna draw real fast because I’m motivated!

Me: (gets music ready on YouTube and starts drawing)

~20 minutes later~

Me:

[dzd3]

Just wanted to post a little teaser so that y'all can see that I’m working on it and what you’re in for if you decide to read!!!

To be honest, it’ll probably be a wait of 1 to 3 weeks max to post each page which I’m really sorry about! :(

But of course I’m doing my best to get them done faster than that!

I just hope you guys and gals will be patient with me since comics are new to me.

Just a few more things to draw and words to get in!!!

[dzd3]

Here’s the new cover for the story “The Money Maker”. Which is a story written by @deniallisstrong. It’s a great fic if you haven’t read it and I totally recommend it.

If you’re a huge Ziam fan I also suggest checking out her other blog dedicated to Ziam, @ifigureditout!

This is gonna be a collaborative piece between us and am excited to get the opportunity to draw a comic, let alone for an awesome writer! I hope you guys will enjoy what’s to come!

If you’d like to know the inspiration behind the story and the cover art, feel free to ask either of us.

 (I did not use anyones fan art as inspiration or for reference for this drawing. I used real life pictures and images sent to me by deniallisstrong. Which I am sorry again for last time.)

[dzd3]

me: I'm gonna write something

also me: ok but what if you don't write it perfectly

me: shit you're right I better not write it at all

[aellagirl]

how to make smores

I was going through old home videos I made a few years ago when i was bored and alone. 

[kaible-deactivated20181205]

for anyone who has ever wondered what girls do in their spare time: this is what girls do in their spare time.

[theriu]

I will NEVER STOP LOVING THIS

[aellagirl]

I thought I would get sick of this video but I’ve watched it probably easily 80 times by now, not including the editing process, and it still gets me

[onecelestialbeing]

I just realized that the gnome changes positions lol

[dzd3]

Wow they have footage of me eating!
