hi i found your account literally today and it is scary how much the way we draw ourselves is similar. i have funky little drawings of myself dating back to 2018 and nearly every iteration you’ve drawn of yourself has also been stylistically and design-wise similar. i don’t have the same skill level as you, but it’s seriously kinda freaky how similar they are. i think we may be clones..?

oho holy shit!! to be fair tho if your irl character design throughout the years has basically just been "lil guy with round glasses" you're bound to look like someone else eventually. (i would love to see your funky drawings of yourself sometime if you don't mind showing them!!)

mayhaps to check your clone hypothesis, i do look like this now

rushed lil doodle because i am still unfortunately mentally ill in my flop era, but yeah i got my hair dyed silver bout a month ago and i have also discovered a tragic penchant for fuckboy striped button-downs.

hi! r u the person who made the "aamin ako" animatic on yt? if so then hi!! i loved it so much i fell in love with the characters, the way u told the story in a few seconds were so GOOD thats probably why i fell in love with it so fast. have u released the comic of these two now? and if so where can i read it, and can i draw them or maybe even make an animatic of them some day? im new to ur stuff (and still to this website) so yee ily bai po

sorry to bring in my not-#relatable comic business on here but yeah. if you're unaware anon is talking about this video i made two years ago based on a story i've been working on (read: daydreaming about) for a few years, nang mainlove ako sa isang sakristan i mean ang jowa kong crosswise linggu-linggo! it's about a closeted sacristan and his aswang boyfriend (the komik community understands the strikethroughs now), except he is also fake dating his catgirl best friend. who is aswang boyf's cousin. yeah.

the characters are near and dear to my heart but i'm putting it aside for now for a number of reasons, namely

it is a long-ass story, and i am just a little creature who only has the spoons to play games on discord and go ooga booga

it's not obvious because i fixate on the cutesy slice-of-life aspect of the story, but filipino mythology™ plays a heavy role in the story and i don't yet have the energy to do the research to treat the mythological creatures of different ph regions with the respect they deserve

i'd already committed to publishing a different comic when i joined last year's komiket university - which i've also slacked on, see ooga booga above - so you'll see that for a few years before this comes out, probably.

you're very welcome to draw them tho, and if you want to know more you can absolutely contact me here or the fucking bird site where i've surprisingly grown much more active.

on a side note: do you happen to be ramiel studios on youtube? i do still read the comments on that video lmao. if so AAAA HI PO THANK U and if not... check out ramiel studios on youtube then haha

WE ONLY ALMOST 25% INTO 2020 HOMIES HOW U DOIN no genuinely how are y’all doing what’s the coronavirus situation where you live? i wanna know. hhh

[togidemicomics]

dude fuck i never use this shit of a 'platform' anymore but you are perfect and your humor hits mine humour perfectly fuck aaaaaahhhhhh and i wanted to get this message to you but tumblr unfortunately doesnt support late 18th century carrier pigeons anymore so i guess youll receive this message without an ounce of style you perffect motherfucker

[serendistudy]

everyone does not hate you or think you're embarrassing. your insecurities are lying to you. the people around you actually appreciate you a lot. the right people do care about you, and they think you're awesome. don't beat yourself up thinking others see you as something you're not.

my sibling and i tried to imagine how we'd deal with douchebags if we were beautiful ladies who had a night life and while they had a pretty standard response - y'know, ignore him, move away from him, threaten to slash his tires and pour goat blood over every single pair of shoes he owns - i realized my reflexive strategy is to just, start talking about necrosis, ask him if his mom had an episiotomy, pull up a pimple popper video on my phone. like YEAH CHAD, EAT MY ASS. MAKE OUT WITH BERTHA AND LEONARD WHILE WE'RE AT IT. YEAH THAT'S RIGHT I NAMED THEM. MY TAPIE WAPIE UWU ORMIE WORMIES ARE /FAMILY/. I GOT THEM WHEN I DROPPED MY SANDWICH IN A COMPOST BIN AND ATE IT ANYWAY.

probably half the money that circulates in artist alleys are just exhibitors buying shit from each other. deadass track a bill's journey throughout a day in an artist alley, there's a real chance it'll end up back at the original person's cashbox

Listen up

You don’t have to like or reblog my art to show your support - I just ask that you print it out and eat it every once in a while. Thanks

head over right here to maybe throw dollas at my comics! yeehaw so, if y’all saw the post from way back, i originally planned to sell I Am Babie/I Am Adult to help out with the australian bushfire situation, but uh shortly after that taal volcano decided to spit on the rest of my country. and then puerto rico happened as well. i honestly have no clue which cause should be prioritized, so if you have suggestions, please do reply!

but in any case, i will be picking a group/fundraiser/charity to donate to and announcing it by around mid-february, as well as posting receipts soon afterwards.

from march 1 onward, all sales will then go to me. because. ya boi still needs to eat.

anyway yeah thank you again for sticking around, whether you’ve been here since the first hiatus or you just started following very recently! i cherish you all all the same and hope you look forward to the other big things i’ve got planned for the year :’)

hi c: when's your bday?

i do plan on maybe doing something cool like a giveaway or an AMA or something then so don’t worry about remembering!

the bittersweet journey of going from Below Average Height to Still Below Average Height (But My Feet Hurt Now)

fr tho fellow short kings, if you're gonna be made fun of for your height anyway, might as well try heels?? like honestly why not. "buT click-clack six-inch ribbony stripper stilettos are terrifying" yes i agree, plain black two-inch block-heeled boots are a much better alternative as they're very easy to walk in, hardly make a sound, and kinda look like dress shoes but Higher. they're a lot more gender-neutral by today's standards than actual men's heels from way back. yeehaw.

yes artists should avoid undercharging and underselling themselves! yes make sure you're compensated for all your hard work! but also!! remember that artists tend to only ever exist on either extreme of the rosenberg scale so that, coupled with growing up poor/cheap, makes it really hard to believe people will actually pay the equivalent of a week's worth of groceries (or more idk) (go OFF, y'all!!) for a drawing

btw this isn't an announcement that i'm opening commissions, i'm still finishing some long-overdue ones and trying to undo the effects of my art hiatus oof

I found your blog and then i found that post where you say you're an "agnostic bi taurus" and i was like. That's. That's me. That's so me. So i hit the follow button instantly (Also you like anime so how i could not follow xD)

are u really on that agnostic bi taurus vibe if you don’t gotta take a hot minute weighing pros and cons and imagining apocalyptic consequences if you made the wrong decision to follow me HMM? jokes aside, thank you!! i’m glad.also yes i do love anime and i have so much more time to watch now that i’ve somewhat fixed my schedule up! sometimes you gotta have a productive study schedule JUST SO YOU CAN WATCH MORE ANIME. i have also since finished KnY and o maidens (as well as promised neverland) since that post, and they’re all bangers. currently i’m watching babylon, haikyuu to the top, and eizouken + will get around to watching hoshiai no sora, SPINACH NARUTO SEASON 4, no guns life, fruits basket (the 2k19 version cos that’s what’s on netflix heehoo), anddd idk 22/7? if anyone wants to share what animes they’re keeping up with, please do! not currently taking a lot of recs since my watch list already intimidates me, but i’m very curious to see what all your tastes are like.
