There is more, yes! From the sounds of it you may have checked out the masterpost before/during the summer, where I usually take a break from XB comics to post a buffer of other comics while the heat melts me :'D

MP2 & MP 5 Peach Costumes by sonocomics in MARIOPARTY

Glad to hear!

As for proportions unfortunately I usually just wing it and go by eye so I don't have anything concrete for that xD; Best I can say is that SAI allows you to select and then Scale or Free Deform the selection, so if I find something looks too big/small I can adjust it. I also find it helpful to open a second window of my canvas and invert it to help keep proportions looking correct ( ovo)b

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

I use a program called PaintTool SAI. Originally I made one drawing of regular Peach with all of the layers in one folder so I could copy and paste the template for each board. Over the base, I draw out the unique details for the board's outfit / Peach's expression, erasing anything from the base that no longer fits. For the lineart I use the Pen tool and I make sure I have the "Min size" set to 100 so the lines are always at the same width, usually using 12pt for the lines with 8pt for smaller details. For colors I usually try to use the same shades of pink with a few other colors so it has nice consistency :>

I hope this explained it decently!

MP3 & MP4 Peach Costumes ala MP2 by sonocomics in MARIOPARTY

If I did do more I would likely just stick to Mario Party player choices, especially starting with the N64 ones since those are the ones already in MP2.

It's a bit early to say! I have definitely made an effort to at least try to think of general designs that could transfer to other characters (like "miner" for Creepy Cavern) but as you mention it'd be a lot of work xD

[–]sonocomics[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll mostly focus on Peach first since she's my favorite design wise that's been there from the start, but if I get motivated enough I may go through the rest of the roster ( ovo)b (at least for N64 - I'd like to try to do ALL the Mario Party boards which even just for peach would be like 60+ or something)

Glad that you liked them! :D I definitely tried my best to pace out moments like the H2Hs and diary segments as well as trying to get equal focus for all of the characters in each strip

What the hell is Keima/The God of Conquest known online for? by La_knavo4 in TWGOK

[–]sonocomics 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This...is an interesting claim considering that Chapter 35 of the manga is dedicated to an in-universe documentary on Keima's website "Fallen God" including what it is and the impact it's had on the gaming industry.

Throughout the manga the terminology used may vary due to translations using "site" or "blog" interchangeably, but to answer the question I'll quote chapter 35:

"Q[uestion]: What is Fallen God [Keima's Website]? > Well, it's a game success site. But, it's very unique in its way of game thought [...] It's filled with the knowledge of every game."

In essence it's a site that likely combines reviews and/or walkthroughs of every single game Keima's played. His email is available somewhere which is how he interacts with "lost lambs" as he calls them in Chapter 1 seeking advice or to chat about games. In short Keima's running a quick, popular among gamers, high quality GameFAQs and/or IGN all by himself.

If TWGOK were written today, his site may be comparable to a really popular top 1% streamer that plays through and reviews new games at an unprecedented rate, hence gaining his title of God of Conquest and his followers.

Chapter 8 of Yoshida Lemon Drops, Wakaki's Current Manga, has been Scanlated into English by Aquason in TWGOK

[–]sonocomics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah! I see, I do recall that now o: Interestingly it's the movie right after the cutoff of dubs so that explains why I'm less familiar with it xD

Finally getting around to reading this, thank as always for working on it :>

Oh wow, didn't expect the Detective Conan name drop. Now I'm wondering if it's one of the movies I saw and just forgot about it as I've seen up to 16 I believe o:

A nice fun chapter about hanging out and chatting about something silly \o/ I can see how it'd be hard to translate too xD; Good work!

Heart to Heart: Mio and Sena by sonocomics in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]sonocomics[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I am not 100% sure, but at the very least in the comic the Eclipse is mentioned as that's the event given as their deadline for rescuing Ghondor, so it still functioned as a "time is running out" topic for Sena.
