first email list!! hello!!
happy ramadan mubarak to those who celebrate (including me)! actually, happy ramadan mubarak to those who dont celebrate too.
anyway lets get to actual updates. I haven’t gotten the chance to finish my projects this month, but they’re definitely in the works!! concept showcase time baby!
yaoi comic…???????????
surprise; kiran is making a yaoi comic that focuses on indonesian culture
here are the characters! aren’t they so silly -v-? the comic will be about two indonesians with very different upbringings dealing with their very different views on their own country and culture
kulon is someone who grew up very disconnected from his culture, which motivated him to learn more about it and show more appreciation for it, while panca is someone who grew up surrounded by his culture, leading him to dislike it.
the name of the comic will be “Five Steps Towards You” as the english title, and “Gejolak Indra di Arah Barat” as the indonesian title!
im still not sure how i should format this comic.. like should i post it on webtoon? on my socials? though ive been thinking of making my own website for the comic and i like that idea the most because i’d have more freedom with customization. anyway feel free to leave suggestions in the comments :]
ELECTRIC WEEKEND ZONE (INDO COVER)
my friend mon and i are making an indonesian cover for the song “electric weekend zone” by flavor foley and circusp! and we’re using gakupo!
concept design for EWZ gakupo
lunin if you’re reading this, this is not arang. i wont give context to anyone else
i fucking love gakupo guys. hes my second favorite vocaloid (my all time favorite is longya). my third favorite is kaito. btw im fond of gakukai
the lyrics are still in the works, but we’ve finished more than half of it! im having a lot of fun with it hehe..
