Time Skip!!

As mentioned in today's comic, I've stopped trying to catch up with all the missed backdates and decided to time skip the comic to present time, so the comic that updates today represents a 3 years later kinda deal. I felt especially comfortable with this move cos I think I've settled what I need to settle in terms of storyline in the past so now I can time skip the comic without it being too awkward or long.

I think psychologically as well, the backdated-ness gives me this whole "I don't have to update now, let's settle all other stuff first" kinda feel in drawing this comic cos I don't feel the pressure of the current date that I need to update, so with this time skip, I'm hoping that I'll actually put importance in updating on time (though I'm pretty sure I'll miss some, but hopefully it won't be weeks or months anymore) like I do for my other comics that I collaborate with other people.

Don't worry though, I will insert little nuggets of what happened the 3 years that I skipped as we go along this new chapter in No Pink Ponies. I'm excited with this move and I think it'll be the start of a great era for this comic. So, please, enjoy the now presently timed No Pink Ponies.

Lately I've been seeing a bit of a spike in visitors and some new comments being posted in old strips and stuff and I feel like I should give some explanation to new readers and visitors. Welcome to No Pink Ponies, it's hardly updating these days cos sadly, I cannot work on it full-time to support my life with bills and other stuff. I have a day job at an animation company I helped co-founded with some friends, we're still new so that means then everyone has to pitch in 110% of the time and that's why I hardly have the time to work on No Pink Ponies cos, despite the ad revenues I get, it's not enough to pay my bills.

Now, some of you might be wondering, "But you're updating quite regularly over at Marry Me and Sandra on the Rocks." Yes, I am regularly updating there, but that's cos I get paid by the people I'm collaborating with to do those comics, so there's an obligation there.

With No Pink Ponies and Rumble Fall, it's a work of passion. Like I said, I do get paid from the ad revenues, but I don't really track that much hits and visits every day, or at least not enough for the ad revenues to be my source of income, so sadly, I have to forego drawing both my passion comics from time to time (that can last months).

I just wanna apologize to the readers who expects me to update regularly and ask that you have patience when it comes to my online comics. Thank you.

I will be at Animangaki this weekend in Sunway Pyramid, August 24th and 25th! My booth number is H3. See you there!!

Thank you for your support!!

(copy and paste from the NPP Facebook page) I was away when the Kickstarter ended but now I wanna say thank you soooooo very much to those that backed the comic up, I really really appreciate the support, you guys are the best! I'll probably draw something up as soon as I get the time just for the backers ^^ Thank you so much.

Final hours of the Kickstarter left!

If you want a copy of Vol.2 (and there's also a reward to get a copy of Vol.1 as well), pledge for it! Volume 2 also includes a story I did back in 2009 of Jess' trip to San Diego Comic Expocon NOT AVAILABLE ON THIS WEBSITE!! Yes, that story is only in Volume 2!!

The comic was done for an anthology called Yon Gumix MEOW sold exclusive in SDCC back in 2009 (and in some Malaysian conventions so I guess it's only exclusive to SDCC in the US) but now I'm making it available on Volume 2 for my NPP readers, so, yeah, get Volume 2 if you wanna read the story.

There's also Kickstarter exclusive stuff like the "Everybody knows your name" Poster and the "Seasonal postcard" Calendar done for the Kickstarter. The first stretch goal was met so there will also be a Kickstarter backer exclusive No Pink Ponies desktop  wallpaper. That's right, only for the Kickstarter backers. So yeah, last few hours left, back up the Kickstarter to get all these cool stuff.

The Kickstarter was a SUCCESS! Thank you to everyone who backed it up, we appreciate all the support given into this project. You can still back up the project cos we'll soon put up stretch goals and extra rewards as more funding comes in. In other news, you can a No Pink Ponies mug now!
