"Mama!"

Description copied from Deviantart.com:

Product of 140+ hours in <strike>Forced Labor Ca...</strike> Ox-Bow Art Camp

14+ hours a day on this, including three versions of thumbnails, paneling, blue sketches, pencil sketches, ink, and toning on 14 x 17 sized paper. Each panel took me about 1 - 2 hours to draw, 1 hour to ink, 1 hour to tone. Backgrounds added another hour. Fixing it up with Deleter white took about 4 - 5 hours. Scanning occurred in 16 sections. Going through my doodles and incorporating them in, while arranging the scans in Photoshop took about 4 hours. Somehow, cropping always takes me a while, too, so I spent a good hour doing that, and resizing.

Needless to say, I'm plain sick of this piece. I had this dream of coloring it, but I gotta tell you... 14+ hours a day for the next week just coloring would probably make my hand explode. I've never drawn so much in my life. I have SO MUCH MORE APPRECIATION for how long a manga page takes an artist.

Absolutely 100% of this was done by hand (Including the little figures scattered at the beginning and ending of the comic [though from separate doodles]. And the Kamehameha at the end is not in the original version, in case you are wondering haha! lol!).

This drained me of about 5 years of my potential life span. LOL I even pulled TWO ALL-NIGHTERS IN A ROW!

PLEASE APPRECIATE THIS. Faves/Comments would be nice <3 And enjoy : D

Special Thanks goes to *allymcbeal18 for inspiring me to learn wacky expressions and *AnnouncerGuy for inspiring me to keep working hard, especially after she submitted her own comic while I was laboring over mine. Oh, and an even more special thanks to ~CurlyHairedKaiju (who was in my class) for help with some facial expressions and body proportions. <3
