A Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky Fancomic![+ Sprite edits, memes, and other silly things]! General art blog is PrinceSheepish! Occasionally reblogs pmd art. Follows from "that-dragon-with-pet-sheep"
F.A.Q for the ETU blog! Some of these questions come from other websites. If there's anything you think I should add, feel free to send me an ask, message, or comment!
Also, feel free to send asks in general! Memes, questions about characters, as long as its not something that would spoil the story I'll probably answer it! [And maybe add in some doodles too]
About this blog:
"PMD-ETU" Or "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Exploration Team Ultra" Is a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon fancomic based on the story of Explorers of Sky. While it will be following the main story of the game, elements have been changed to fit the story I want to tell.
My main art blog is @zenjamini!
Ko-fi
Questions under the cut!
Where can I read from the beginning?
You can view ETU chronologically on Comic Fury!
Content Warnings:
There will be some scenes in the comic that I will put under a "read more" for specific content!
Note: This may not be a complete list, but I will edit the FAQ with things I forgot or as they appear!
Here's what will not be under a read more:
-Cartoon Violence [Pokemon battles]
-Bullying, Verbal Abuse, swearing
Here's what will be placed under a read more:
-Graphic Violence [anything more then a simple cut or bruise, there will be a couple of instances of this in the comic]
For the comics that are under a "read more" for graphic violence I'll be making a non bloody/non extreme version that I'll put in Deviantart Sta.sh and linked to at the top of the post [Ex: If a character gets a severe cut, I'll be drawing the more violent version on a separate layer and posting the more "safe" version in DA stash.
If there are pages I can't effectively censor, such as for Abuse reasons, I'll make a non descriptive summary of the pages so you don't miss anything! [So I would give just a "This character was abused by this character" or something of the sort]
When do you post/why has it been awhile since you posted?
My goal for posting is somewhere between every week to every other week, but I'm not forcing myself to keep to that! ETU being a fully colored comic makes it take awhile to draw and I have a full time job on top of that ^^
Can my character appear in the comic?
Unless we're friends, probably not, sorry!
Will you post to x website?
Maybe! I don't mind looking at certain websites, but if they don't allow fanworks, it won't be on there. At the moment, the main comic is only on Comic Fury and tumblr! That being said, please do not repost my art without my permission!
Guess who's second job didn't work out....!! [They never called me back despite hiring me. Wrow.]
This does mean I'll still have time to work on ETU! Might still take a week or two off to give myself a buffer, work on some misc artwork, and one or two other comic projects I'm working on...! [Much shorter comics then ETU lol] :}
I also want to push a more general focus on commissions and adopts on my main account [ @zenjamini ] Cause second job is not jobbing and I got turned down for donating plasma due to. my weed allergy???????? Which was. Interesting. But whatever! If you guys are ever interested in comms or adopts feel free to follow my main blog! [Will reblog pmd adopts here too tho lol]
Should have a couple updates between now and the end of June, but I will be taking July off for art fight as per usual!
I theenk I'm going to start using two days for sketching and lump shading and coloring together on the same day since I tend to do it all at once anyways....!!
Ultimately this doesn't mean much for you guys cause itll still be posted on Sunday so im just yapping LOL. I think spending more time on the sketch should improve the general quality quite a lot tho since I won't be trying to cram it all into two hours.
figured it was about time i compiled some of my dragonites guild doodles in one post! some more info under the cut
dragonite and lopunny went on an adventure w their own hero, daisy. after saving the world she disappeared back to human world but...she never came back. now years later dragonite and lopunny run a guild together...
Love Pokemon Mystery Dungeon? Have a story to share? Let me collab with you!! I've been thinking about wanting to work with others in the PMD community and I think this would be a fun way to do it! Short stories or longer ones welcome- but I may not be able to stick around if its as long as ETU is lol. ETU is like, 60 chapters that are 40ish pages each so far. lmfao.
I'm looking to collaborate with another PMD creator to make a comic! I'm looking to either:
-Draw a comic for someone with a pre-existing fanfiction
-Draw a comic for someone with a new idea
-Collaborate with someone on a new or pre-existing comic. [For example, one person does lines, one person does colors, etc.]
You can see an example of my PMD comic here. This is the style I will work in unless its an artist collab- and then we can discuss the details!
More information under the cut!
[PMD ETU fans, a note for you really quick: ETU will always be my priority, and continue to get weekly updates after finals are done ^^]
Here's what I'm offering:
-A fully colored, fully shaded comic, OR assisting with the creation of new pages with another artist
Here's what I need from you:
IF YOU WANT ME TO DO THE FULL COMIC: I will do little to no writing if I'm doing the majority of the drawing!
[OPTIONAL] If you have a specific vision for a comic page, you can provide me with storyboards and I can do the rest! Otherwise, I will work with you from storyboards!
IF YOU WANT ME TO COLLABORATE: I'm more open to helping with the story building if we're both working on the artwork!
Some other points to keep in mind:
-I'm a full time worker and part time student. I have months where I have off periods from school- that's where I'll probably work the most!
-My existing pmd comic, PMD-ETU, is my priority, and I'll work on that first!
-At this time I cannot guarantee how fast I can work!
-If working on a collaborative comic, I may be willing to work with reasonable deadlines, but if working the whole comic, I likely will not work with deadlines.
-You do not have to keep me on as an artist forever! I just need to be credited for any work that I do!
-This is free btw. The reason I want to do this is to get experience working for someone else on comics and working collaboratively with someone, and to give back to the PMD community.
-I am looking to draw the comics that interest me the most. All skill levels welcome- I'm more interested in interesting ideas then perfect storytelling.
ALL THAT BEING SAID. I'm not sure what the interest in this is going to be, but please keep in mind I absolutely can't pick everyone. I may pick one full comic to draw and one collaborative comic, but it depends on the offers. SO here's what to fill out:

hmmm short answer? not anytime soon.
Long answer:
I have a lot less interest in making comics for the other PMD games- I don't really have as strong as a story in mind for them.
Well, I have a little bit of lore concerning the first game for Irouka and Ignatious:, my PMD1 OCs:
...But I don't currently have enough to change of the story of PMD1 to justify a comic! Although these two do get mentioned in PMD ETU, its more of a passing "Rescue Team that saved the world" type mention. Team Aether is far past their saving the world days- and timeline wise, they are about the same age as Hester's mother, Hart. Its not that I dislike red/blue rescue team- I think I cry more playing those games then explorers- I just like Explorers more overall and think its more fun to play around with in a comic setting. Although Team Aether do have a fleshed out story and personalities- I just haven't given it a lot of serious thought.
There's also a ton else I would prefer to do over a PMD1 comic- Pokemon Platinum, Legends Arceus, BW/BW2, SUMO,and ORAS all rank pretty high on "things I want to make a comic on" comparative. [The pokemon games I don't have a lot of interest in are gens 1,2,6,8, and 9 atm but I do have OCs for every game so that could change] There's also a few non Pokemon games I think about making comics about occasionally- Fire Emblem Heroes, Stardew Valley, Skyrim and Animal Crossing, namely. I might start those at some point anyway, but I'll likely always have a Pokemon comic running at some point just due to how much I like Pokemon and how much there is to do in a Pokemon universe setting. But I likely won't be starting any Pokemon themed comics until PMD ETU is finished anyway.
This isn't even mentioning original content- and I have a loooot of OCs I could potentially make a comic based on. At the moment I could probably work on two comics- but I could only consistently post one. Now that I have motivation to work on ETU due to Not Soul Crushing Job, its likely going to be ETU I work on consistently until its finished. (Not that we're close- ETU has 30 chapters scripted and at least 20 more I haven't touched yet).
Oh and, I don't remember the plots of Gates and Super enough to even think about making comics about those. I don't even have Gates or Super OCs. Sorry 3DS era PMD fans.
