Teemukillinen asked: ”Where did you get your inspiration to draw comics? Do you have other things on the works than the blog?”Me: ”… You gave me a hard one.”
”We travel back to the past, for about 23 years. I am 3, my brother is 6.”
There was a healthy (?) sibling rivalry between us.
”Mom, I want to go to preschool, too.”Same next year; I am 4, my brother is 7.
”Mom, I want to go to school, too.”
When he was a kid, my brother liked to draw comics. They had dinosaurs, robots… Maybe even dinosaur robots?
Some stuff was drawn on old paper sheet meant for old fax machine. Pictures and stories were easy to leaf through.The stories my brother created were my first touch to the world of stories and drawings combined, alongside with Donald Duck comics.
Because my brother drew, I drew. Because of our age difference, I naturally did not quite reach his level, but he encouraged me to continue.”At some point drawing comics just ended — for us both.
Other stuff I did draw.
I started to draw comics again at adult age, now that I have learned not to mimic others so blatantly. When I was a kid, I was a huge plagiarist. Guess my imagination and skills were not enough for stories of my own.”
”Nowadays I am inspired by other comic bloggers, my readers, even potential haters.
You are the force that keeps my drawing hand on the move.
Thank you for that.”
I don’t draw other projects at the moment.”Although it might be interesting to play a Nuzlocke challenge in Pokémon X and make it in a comic.”
INFORMATION BOX:
Pokémon Nuzlocke Challenge (in a nutshell)
– You can catch only one Pokémon, usually the first encountered, on each route
(one can make an exception with Legendaries and shinies).
– Each captured Pokémon must be named.
– If Pokémon faints, it is dead and must not be used again. It has to be released or boxed (if all team members die, the game is over).”Those are the basic rules, but there are also variations. There are some gorgeous Nuzlocke comics in the Internet.”
Dunno if anyone is interested in reading my gaming mishaps?”Andrei? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!”
”Pippi was too young to die!”
”But we shall see what I get to think of.”
