Re: Q&A
I have a question...you're cute will you marry me?
That was a joke. I was SO tempted to make it on the Springette site.
My actual question is...when does everything restart with your strips?

Hi Don!

Artemisia, XD. But instead of some engagement rings I'd prefer a Daft Punk helmet...
I'll start posting again next week! After spending a month in the States, I had to do some readjustments, and upgrades to my computer, I'm helping with the PTC layout updates... I had some unfinished business from my time off.

I'm just glad that you'll be starting back up again soon. I've missed both strips in my rotation.

Re: Q&A
Daft Punk helmet, check...
Anyway, an actual question: When will we see some picture updates on the cast list. Many of them could be easily done since the characters have already shown up - especially Emily.
Also, wonderful to hear it will go on next week, I misssssed it!
Final question: I saw you have merged and moved the Otakon pics to "Gallery", but what of "*coff*" and the little comic where you missed your flight? I couldn't find them readily.

Re: Q&A
Thanks Azrael!
Cast list: I need to draw them... and I'm the slowest. So, soon, soon...
I didn't delete the filler comics off the site, but... I didn't like the fact that there were gonna be like 5 unrelated pages in the middle of a chapter. I haven't decided where I'll put those sketches yet. ^^;

Re: Q&A
How old is the concept of Fragile, and how did you get the idea?

Re: Q&A
Around 2003, when I first got internet at my home (yes, yes, I know) I started to draw pixel dolls. I had created this 'catgirl' as a mascot for my website: purple hat, violet eyes, black hair... and named her Mitzy. She was Proto-Marian.
I really loved making pixel dolls, I was very prolific, probably made about a thousand of them! The weirdest color combos, the better. The earliest pixel dolls of the four friends was probably made in 2004. Emily didn't show up until a year later (and she had 4 braids). This is the oldest one I have online, but not the first one I did.
I was very attached to these character designs, so I thought of writing a comic around them. I started *trying* to write a story around mid-2007 if I recall correctly, but I could never come up with a goal, it was illogical and Emily had no reason to be. Originally it was named The Gang (huh) and it had fantasy elements, which they were more of a crutch rather than an actual part of the story. And I was never super confident about my [URL=http://shourimajo.deviantart.com/galler ... 6#/d17s3lq]art skills[/img]. I thought I would never be able to do this!
A while after I started collaborating on EC/MC, my art got better (just a little bit I guess), and Giz asked if I had any plans to do a comic that wasn't a 4 panel strip. I told her about this idea I had for a story about friends, and it sparked me to start working again on it. I knew I wanted a story about friendship, and contrasts. Unlike other stories I've "written", I never had a clear idea about this one. I did a looot of research, tweaked the characters, and wrote a rough story plot from beginning to end, before I started working on each individual chapter & page. So while the "concept" (char design, mostly) is quite old (2004?), the story as you're reading it right now is probably only a year old! (5th version, give or take ).
And that's how Equestria was made.

Re: Q&A
Any chance we could get a version of your Chibi-Shouri that isn't part of a larger pic? It's too cute. ;)

Are you being sinful and munching on a potato chip??
I thought pretty girls like you didn't do that.
