[Bird in a Spacesuit]

This is just amazing. The form, the fluency, the color, the everything about this really... hope you submit some more! Would be cool to see what else you do. Looks like a pretty unique style.

And that ramble was fun to read too. :) Happy you found your way here! And interesting to know the podcast brings people in too... I knew about Jazza bringing people in with his occasional challenge/contest thing. He's been like a magnet so long but that was new.

SupImToha responds:

Thank you! It's cool to hear that you enjoyed it that much. I'll see if I can make something like this, provided that I have time and inspiration. My stuff is incredibly varied, as I don't have that much of a set style. Whenever I do art, I just have fun most of the time.

And I'm also glad that you enjoyed the ramble, I keep thinking about if it was a bit weird to ramble on in a submission, like should I make my own post about it? Or just shut up? But it looks like it didn't matter as much as I thought it would. And yeah, the tweet that lead to the podcast and the recent popularity of Among Us / Henry Stickmin has definitely caused the traffic to this site to go up. I saw quite a few new accounts that have some HS character as their icon so we could assume that it's not just the podcast that's bringing in people.

[Comfy Ethra]

Looking comfortable indeed! :) Nice work!

Thank you! ;D

[Kabuki Shibari]

Definite favorite so far. :O Form, pose, gaze, colors and all... this is just straight up beautiful. Simple/stylish/sensual/minimalist and messy in a natural kind of way... maybe the dark background feels a bit odd, not sure if it's shadow or wall - inside or outside - feels off somehow. And her one foot looks a little strange. But the rest: perfection.

PigGanon responds:

Wow! Honestly I'm not much of a painter nor am I much of a background artist so that makes a whole lotta sense! Thank you for both your praise and feedback. Mucho appreciated.

[Kimono]

So much detail here... colorful, kind and traditional... nice style.

[Leffe's Letter (Webcomic)]

Interesting collection! Was thinking there'd be a story at first, a letter that progressed with each page, but it's almost like... one of those motivational books with images to go along with certain quotes. Only not all of them are all motivational. :) Philosophical sometimes, fun sometimes, sometimes just a bit confusing... like the 'danger to myself' one, or the arms reach. Is this generally applicable wisdom? Is it personal stuff? Is it supposed to be more so comical when it doesn't really make sense...?

I REALLY liked both the imagery and text with the 'I don't know the range of my hearing' one in particular, feels like the kind of thing I could have as a poster in my room, and the visuals in some of these were great (well they all were but some were really on another level somehow). Both context and imagery seems to get better with time - though maybe to an extent I'm just getting into this particular style of fragmented reading as it goes...

I feel like maybe it would've been better if the thoughts tied to each other somehow. if, even though they're separate, there was some kind of link from one to the next, a continuity as to the 'letter' of it all.

As it is it's an intriguing trip, and ends in a way that sort of seems to explain everything, but also doesn't really feel like what I thought it set out to be, or like there's a meaning behind all.

HolyKonni responds:

Thank you very much for your articulate, well thought-through and interesting review of our book. It's fascinating for me to get an insight into how this somewhat weird project is received by a reader! I sent the review on to my writer, as well.

I think you've got a point about the book being somewhat confusing and lacking in a "red thread". That is also the reason why it never became as popular as my other comic, which has a proper story. Still, Leffe's Letter will always have a special place in my heart.

Again, thank you for sharing your thoughts!
