Context: Team Ingo lost to Team Emmet in a real MK tournament we held on Twitter last March. The winners would decide what the losing twin has to do. The council chose Ingo dressing up and performing an Eurovision show. Now Ingo is about to step on the stage to face his most difficult challenge yet!
"Cha Cha Cha" lyrics by Käärijä
Emmet respects his brother and shows how serious he is about this by putting on his best attire & inviting along his friends, including top tier professionals on the entertainment field to judge his performance - and have fun!
The Spikemuth siblings helped Emmet out during the Curious Tea Party preparations. Emmet also knows they both love music, so it was obvious for him to invite them. After Piers's duet with Emmet, Piers was excited to hear his brother sing! I can tell he wasn't disappointed here ahaha! Marnie totally cheered for her smiling practise buddy through the whole thing!!
On the third page Elesa is shouting "Go Ingo!!" 'Hyvä' stands for good in finnish but Finns can scream it so loudly and passionately for their friends it's more like "Let's go! You got this! I believe in you! Youre doing amazing! Keep it up! Show them what you got!"
I imagine Emmet being much better at keeping a poker face than Ingo. He's also more daring and ready to prove his skills and look cool while at it. Ingo on the other hand is more careful about his image. He already gets to hear a lot about his frown and intimidating appearance, and this clearly worries him. Therefore he does his best to come off as friendly and approachable as he can, keeping his movements calm and subtle... until he gets excited!
In the end he just got just as excited about this challenge as he would in a pokémon battle! But if the public would ever hear about this... He would gladly take a hike to Hisui!
Working on the speech bubbles was a nightmare aaaaa-
My first finished comic ever wooo!! This was inspired by a daily submas art prompt on Twitter, "quarrel". I barely ever see them arguing about anything because they canonically get along so well but I wanted to figure out something, and eventually this struck my mind. XD
From that moment I sat on my computer for four days straight, each page taking 10 hours of work!! I knew making comics is hard, but now I truly understand why. Sketching was fast, but then I realised I need to find room for the dialogue before rendering the panels, and that alone took a huge chunk of time, not fun, eugh. I fiddled with the lines way too long too, hunting stray pixels. I ended up giving the comic my all so I was absolutely drained when I finally posted this on the fourth night right before collapsing on my bed.
The next morning... whoa. I was so taken aback of all the positive feedback I was instantly energised and started planning the next comic haha!! The effort was totally worth it!!
I always thought I would not be able to draw full comics because of my attention disorder and lack of time and skills so I never even attempted it, I was so sure I just couldn't do it. But then submas happened, and I got over that mental block just like that! Now I really want to get good at this stuff!!
Expect many more comics in the future! Of course they take a ton of time to make ahah, but they will make it here eventually! Until then,
"Team Plasma strikes in Nimbasa City! It's up to the valiant subway bosses to protect the city from a looming catastophy. Will they be able to stop the devious team in their tracks or will they meet their final stop in their hands?"
A fun little fake teaser sketch, hehe... or is it? Took one 7-hour sitting, or more like lying on the couch covered in eraser bits and hands all shiny and silvery lol
I used to believe I would never be able make a real comic in my life because of attention disorder and being a slow artist until I shared this on Twitter. These silly train twins are my life now haha. More fun submas comics coming up later, hope you look forward to them!
Say hi to my Team Plasma grunts! They are here to make your time in Nimbasa City a real blast!!
holy duck you can't just take silvally from Gladion without me worrying about him he's gonna be so upset !!! That's his best little buddy!! His closest friend in the entire world!!
Exactly, the trust between them is very precious and a result of sheer hard work and they mean the world to each other!! We can only hope they find each other again one way or another, before Team Break can achieve their goals!
