It's being a very tiring time of my life, my job is going wonderfully and that's exactly why I've been kinda absent. Days are long and I come home really drained with zero creativity... It's being a very burnout time.
Even so, a couple of weeks ago, seeing my boyfriend opening steam on our pc, to play, i asked:
"Do we still have The sims installed?"
"Why? Do you wanna play it?"
"Maybe..."
"Do it, it will help you rest a bit."
So, I was missing drawing my comics, I was missing my kids... what did I end up doing?
Don't tell me you weren't expecting this.
My Miyako
I only have the base game and a couple of dlc so I really made my best to come out with this. I tried my best to recreate her outfit picking either from the anime and official arts and collaborations. My favourite must be the winter one, too bad we don't have her red coat (from Adventure 02) cause everything else is just so on point. A bit sad we don't have a cow patterned bathsuit. This is really something sad.
I HAD A LOT OF FUN.
Was I satisfied after creating her? Of course I wasn't.
My Ken
Oh this boy, how I love him.
Unfortunately the game doesn't offer many haircuts and most of all, many hair colours, so I went for something similar to short haired Ken, which I love, and for black hair. I mean the blue was peacock blue, not the best for him. As for Miyako, I tried to dress him as similar as his official outfits and arts. Isn't his summer outfit (second from right) just exacly as his Kizuna's one? I am proud.
The 02 gang.
I ended up talking about this crazy idea with my friend @maryychill, who fully embraced this project, and we ended up creating a whole digidestined gang, yeah 12 people plus some bonus eheh (You can see more on her blog, she did a lot, a looot).
Here they are! I made everyone except for Hikari (Made by Mary, cause she's her favourite). I am really enjoying playing with all of them, They are all teens except for Iori, of course, who is still a little kid and is SO CUTE.
Now, about the game.
I love playing with Miyako, I made her live with her siblings, Momoe, Mantarou and Chizuru. They live in Willow Creek near a strange tree. I made Miyako interact with it and found out an incredibly beautiful place. I made her call everyone and explore it.
Really guys, do we have Digiworld in the sims? I mean, look at this place!
They had a pic nic there and at some point Ken thought it was a good idea to start doing his homeworks... Iori soon followed the example, helped by Miyako and did a great job! Takeru hugging him after he finished with his study was just too cute.
Talking about hugs, Ken and Miyako are a couple! Can you believe it? In my game? It's super funny they frequently meet in Miyako's house and her siblings are often in the way... the moment in the series she wished to be an only child is so real in this game, omg.
They are a cute couple of nerds, they even found some time to study together during a date... how romantic (?) (Maybe it is, for them)
Interactions.
I had some luck catching some of the interactions happening in the game while I wasn't asking the characters to do things.
That's what happened:
Ken hugging Iori. We all love this little kid.
Miyako receiving a gift from Ken with Chizuru being there like: "I wish that present was for me, omg"
Miyako talking with Koushiro about some interesting stuff.
Wait, Koushiro?!
Yes! I told you all the gang is there!
This is Koushirou's lab... a little crowded maybe? But the music is on, sofas are really confortable, the pc are the coolest around and we are having a big fun!
Miyako immediately went to talk to Mimi, Ken, as usual, when Iori is around goes to check on him. (I don't know why, but this is so incredibly cute, he likes the kids)
Funny finding Takeru doing his homework with Joe teaching him... and some hot dogs on the side. I don't know who made them.
The gang (almost) reunited. Keeping them all in the same room is nightmare, but we have, clockwise from the up centre: Taichi, Miyako, Yamato, Ken, Wallace, Michael, Koushiro, Mimi, Sora, Daisuke and Hikari!
What is that? A Ladybug? No guys, Tentomon. It's clearly Tentomon in Koushiro's lab! (He likes to stop in front of him sometimes and just observe him in all his red roundness).
At the moment playing this game is helping me recover from my creative burnout and it's making me incredibly happy and maybe a little bit less stressed by my job.
Ok, maybe some of you were waiting for updates from me regarding this thing.
What about your comics? Did you quit the idea of making more?
No, of course I haven't. In the last months I drew many panels from different pieces of the story (I see all of them as a whole project) and I have more than one chapter in progress, but I seem to never be 100% satisfied with anything lately, that's why I am struggling and not posting a single thing... I am really sorry for that, but yes, my block is going to end eventually and I'll be back.
For everyone who may need this, I'm sending a big hug! <3
Hello everyone! I'm back from my holydays and I'm back with a little comic. I made a lot during my vacations and I can't wait to find the time to finish and share them!
About this one... I really, really missed drawing them as kids and since the series left us with years of gaps, I wanted to play and fill some!
If this is my first kenyako comic you came across, well, everything else is in my blog. Hope you enjoy!
I really wanted to draw something for Christmas and new year's celebrations... and I actually did? And it's more than I hoped to do, I'm so happy I had the time!
Of course I had to add something silly in the end...
Merry Christmas everyone! I really hope you had a nice day with your friends and family!
I can't wait to share more comics with you, there's gonna be long and short ones. I hope you'll continue to enjoy and support me, I'm really, really grateful for all the love I'm receiving! ❤️ Kisses!
Just got a notification that today is my tenth year here on tumblr! Happy birthday to this blog! To celebrate the goal, here I am to resume the very first drawing I posted here, and guess what? It's Miyako! So, here's my latest drawn Miyako and the first. As a bonus, some sketch of the last one, this is from the next comic I'm gonna post here, if you're curious, you have to stay tuned.
Woah, this chapter took me so long! After five months I can't believe I actually finished it, I kept redrawing panels cause I seemed to never be satisfied... and also got distracted with other stories, ops.
I promise, some day I will make an index of all chapters, cause I'm making more.
Hope you'll enjoy this even if it's a bit bittersweet.
Thanks everyone for your support!
This summer I started working on a little kenyako comic set in "Beyond". I later decided to discard it cause I can't really put this serie in a precise time and space and couldn't make it have any sense with the other comics I already made (I don't think Beyond is a sequel to the other movies, so...) But even thinking about this, I was feeling bad throwing all the sketches and the half finished cover away. As you can see, I took some time to have fun with them.
Hope you'll enjoy, 'cause I love them, I love them just so much.
This is a silly comic born from a joke. I was wondering if I could make something for Halloween in time and I was told that there's no problem if I post Halloween on Christmas. My mind put the pieces together and I thought about Ken and Miyako showing themselves at an Halloween party with accidentally matching costumes.
Miyako couldn't miss the opportunity to tease Ken, neither could Hikari. For sure Miyako liked the present from her friend.
Thank you Mary for triggering this idea in me and to be an amazing supporter!
This is what I needed to see at the end of "Tri.", my kids being alright.
Next chapter is gonna be very long, I already made a lot of panels but I'm struggling to find a good idea for the cover. I decided to finish these first so my blog didn't look abandoned in the meantime...
Tomorrow is gonna be my birthday! My wish is to find more and more kenyako friends! And thanks again to everyone following me, liking, commenting and sharing my posts. It means so much to me! ❤️
I must admit, I had lots of fun drawing these panels. Imagining them as teens, thinking about how they would spend their free time hanging together, realizing (or maybe not) their crushes. Right, Ken?
Also. Drawing the baby digimon is a joy for me, they are just too cute. I love them very, very much.
And about love... Thank you everyone for your likes, reblogs and comments! I am getting much more love than I tought I would when I started this project. Doing this only for me is nice, of course, but receiving love back? IT'S AMAZING, THANK YOU!

This little comic started as something short, a few vignettes to portray little moments... and then I realized I wanted to tell more. And so here we are. This took a lot longer than part 1 and 2 but I'm happier with the result. Also we have a cover!
I think I set my standards a bit high with this chapter but I want to continue like this.
