Real life

 

Eaahhhhhh. Funny how my silly little comics have resonated with so many people, and with no effort on my part to distribute them, I notice they're in lots of different countries and being shared in some interesting places, heheh.

Perhaps this is because my comics are about real life. About those moments that are so unbearably special, so nothing-y on the face of them, but that strike us in the guts when they happen. So when we write/draw/make music about those things, if they are real - that art connects with people in a deep way, because we all know ... yeah. I've felt that one. I've seen that curve, or felt that awkwardness. I've smelled that smell during that hug. I've accidentally stroked that arm or touched that hand while passing a mug of coffee. I've nuzzled a bit too close during a reunion, and felt something. I've stayed overnight somewhere and shared that bathroom, and maybe I didn't see anything, but maybe they did. Maybe, maybe. Ahhh, real life. Awkward and painful and wonderful.

Comic update: I've done the first few scenes, and we're getting on for a third of the way through! Yay! :)

  1. Yeah, those lingering feelings. The slight excitement of what could have happened, where your fantasy bridges towards a possible reality is rather intriguing. If I had had the courage to do this would this have happened. The "might haves" can often be more alluring then the "it happened".

  2. How much I agree with you... And how much we are doing the same way (even if obviously my story is totally different and I'm 2D artist); but the moods, feelings, atmospheres are really near yours. So I understand very well what you have wrote. Good luck

  3. Experience as its finest. No one can fake it until they went through it.

Hello! Work commences on comic #6

  Well, it seems that this blog is still running, despite Google's best efforts, so I managed to log in and can now give you all a little update! A few weeks ago I wrote the final scripts for comics #6 and #7, and last week I even made a start creating the first few 3D scenes of #6! So that's good news! I don't know when I'm going to get the time to complete it, but I will hop into this Rather Magnificent project whenever I can grab an hour here or there over the next few months, and will update this blog whenever I can. In the meantime, I hope people are having a wonderful April! ~ Tira   PS. I re-read through my comic series last week, and I have to admit I did enjoy it! It has quite an innocent, enjoyable sort of vibe to it, huh? It sort of felt joyful, easy going. Well, I will try and continue that vibe with the next comic, for sure 🥰
