Q/ First off, what is Yuri?
A/ Its female lesbian sex and it translates as "Lily" in English, but there are various types of sexualities in this comic. So not necessary just homosexuals but bi-sexuals as well
Q/What does "Otenba" mean?
A/ Its japanese word for Tomboy but the word itself comes from europe. The same goes for the words Anime and Manga really XD
Q/ Yo, how often do you update this comic?
A/ Oh dear, depends on how much time I get these days. It updates at least 2-3 times a week, the days aren't as set anymore but I am trying.. I am on a near full time job.
Q/ I can't read the text. Why won't you use blambot fonts or computer fonts yada yaya
A/ I like to keep the comic as natural as possible, there are a few pages with CG fonts but only if the page is deemed highly unreadable. I might in future redo the entire lot in CG fonts but there is yet debatable and has only been done in a printed issue one.
Q/ "insert word here" is messy. Can't you add gradient shading or clean up your art?
A/ I want the comic to be quite different, if it causes convtroversy or criticism or the like etc.. then good. XD
Q/ Why tomboys?
A/ I'm a tomboy as well , and theres nothing more sexy than a girl who can match a guy XD. I had trouble finding romantic yuri involving tomboys, not trying to say that all tomboys are girl lovers.. there are tomboy girls out there who are perfectly hetro.
Q/ Can you do me a picture... pleeeeease?
A/ Well at the moment, I rather be paid for my work at the moment, it is my other job after all. So no.. I won't do you any free art. Sorrie I will comission if there is a reasonable sum and I have got the time for it.
Q/ Well.. can you do fanart exhanges?
A/ I do fanart exchanges yis. And if I love you muchly I will do one for free XD
Q/ How long does it to do one page?
A/ It takes me now.... 2 hours to do one pageI use 2 different shades of mechinical pencils in 2 sizes. 0.5 and 0.7
Q/ Hmmmm its in pencil
A/ Well done Einstein, you have now gained one point in observation. I did a majority of my comics in ink.. now its time for a change XD Being in the smut in form of pencil!!
Q/ How do you colour those images in?
A/ Photoshop 7and Paintshop Pro 7. Wonderful applications.
Q/ If I did some fanart.. is it okay to do some really explicit images
A/ Hmm it depends. Most art gets approved before being put for visual reasons. I like something tasteful, and something that isn't shocking to the eyes for some of the readers =/
Q/ This page causes me great concern, they're naked/doing it/molesting each other
A Then don't read the bloody comic then! This is aimed to an audience of mature readers, and if you're offended by these sorts of thing, then go home!
Q/ Can I "borrow" some of your artwork?
A/ No, sorry unless its fanart that I did.. I had occassions in which people have posted my stuff without permission. I will shove my fists down their throats when I find them.
Q/Are you gay?
A/ Why are you asking? lol.. thats for me and my girlfriend to know.
Q/Are your characters based on your and your girlfriend?
A/ No actually, I met Melissa 6 months after the comic was created. Everything character wise is purely coincidental.
Q/ Can I email you?
A/ Yes you can but my responses can be slow since I don't really spend that much time in front of my computer anymore, even then I be CGing, chatting a few or playing World of Warcraft XD
