My very first comic EVER!

Once again digging through my collection of old artworks (not-so-narcissistically) and found this old gem. It's back when I was 7 & started doing comics for the first time.

The comic's titled "Little Green Fairies" and it was completely in Indonesian, cuz I don't speak English much at that age. But no prob folks, translation will be provided.

Here's the back page, actually. The character's names are based on my sister & cousin (though my cousin's actual name is Nisya. I didn't know how to spell her name right yet back then). This comic was born in January 1999.

Translation:
LITTLE GREEN FAIRIES by Rara
in: "Having Fun"
1. One day, the Little Green Fairies are having a picnic at their grandma & grandpa's house.
Nisya: Delicious!
Alta: Yummy!

2. And then the two walked back home. How joyful.
Nisya: Let's go home
Alta: Oh, how fun.

3. While they were having fun, they were making milk, getting the cookies and watching TV.

4. They were called in by Rara. Dita gave them a camera. Little green fairy Nisya was confused where the present was was but Alta told her where it wass.
[Okay this part is cut off so I'm just assuming what goes on in the description]
Rara & Dita (carrying a camera and their present): Here's to both of you
Nisya: Where?
Alta: There it is!

5. The green fairies then opened it.

6. "Wow, a paper miniature house!" Nisya said. "The paper is ironed first," added Alta. Nisya nodded.
....seriously? The story was THAT lame? The comic should be renamed "Getting a Present" or "The Daily Life of the Little Green Fairies" or something like that. But nevertheless these fairies seemed like they had fun having a picnic & then watching TV afterwards while dunking cookies in milk. Doesn't everyone do that?

And I'm just keeping this here as evidence. Or when I someday might be using this idea and remake the story.

My Rhett and Link gif's featured on Buddy System!

Not a new art post, but a throwback and some news. Okay so I made that gif 3 years ago, based on one of the endings of GMM where R&L played in the park, & I only took the see-saw scene. Just recently, this month, someone in deviantART told me that this gif's featured in their Youtube Red show Buddy System, in season 2. I couldn't be more proud, this was the first time something I made actually got featured in a TV show. To clarify, a few months before this, one of the post-production crew contacted me via Ask.fm first, then email, asking for my permission to feature the gif on Buddy System cuz Link found it online & he liked it. tbh i'm not even sure whether i'm allowed to post his email address here. I'm still thankful for him, for reaching out to me and being an overall chill guy, and the crew, too.

The Bull (parody of The Fishes)

A shower thought turned into a comic. Previously after coming across The Fishes again, I realized that back in 2004 this comic series got me thinking that Pisceans are fragile, sensitive, and bubbly (just because the theme of this comic is sweet fuzzy romance) and that kinda left me with a temporary soft spot for them, but as I got to college I realized that this WASN'T the case. I met quite a lot of rad-ass Pisceans who are tough as alloys (like  this particular whimsy one  whom I like to hang out with). Perhaps it's just the stereotypes people give to zodiacs. Now I'm not into starsigns & personalities and I'm probably incorrect, but according to the order of zodiac signs, Pisces is the last one so they assume they're like the baby sibling and needs protection (maybe that's why Ben Wong picked this starsign as the comic's theme but I'm not sure exactly), whereas Aries and Taurus being the top two first ones, act like the rebellious tough
