Young Mazz and Brina
After years of preparations and false starts, I have finally finished the first episode of Brina.
Thought I have been making comics for decades and I have been in the furry fandom since the 1990s, I can't say had made a real furry comic until now. My regular comic, Futurepig is more of a science fiction comic where some of the alien species look like anthros.

Brina will be furry a slice-fo-life comic set in an Earth-like environment.

This first episode introduces the characters and their personalities. In the future ones, their relationship will be shown in more detail.

I'll talk some more about this comic in a future journal, for now, enjoy the beginning of Brina.

the bottom panel in the fourth page has "Brazil" written all over it, in a way i never thought i'd see.

I'm glad you appreciate it. I tried to get the general look right.

the best part of your work is  the dynamic of the the characters relationship, it is really what i like more.
the details, the references ( i don't get most of them!) , are a welcome "salad dressing", add flavour to the recipe. but this time there is a mistake (maybe): in page 7 verdict is better than veredict?

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy it. I tried to put as much of the character's general personality in this one, despite being so short. I'll elaborate on them more soon.
And yeah, that was a typo. Thanks and fixed!

Awesome dude, I love it. Both characters are adorable. And I like your choice to have a world with anthro furries alongside humans. It seems to fit your works very well.
ThaPig

Thanks! You think my characters are adorable? That means a lot coming from you.  ( ○ (oo) ○ )

I didn't want to make an all-animal world, but a mixed one. In part because it saves me from having to come up with a species for each new character, but also because some of the characters that will join soon are based on real people.
Chucky

I do! They're all interesting and you've given them unique and identifiable personalities. The other artist I'm thinking of who mixes humans and anthros is Dutch with Misty the Mouse. He makes it work very well and I feel the same way about your work.

So much I love about this.  In particular, the way you use the red light in his darkroom.  And that parody of the scene from the sistine chapel.  Or is it a parody?  What should we call it?
ThaPig
3 years, 1 month ago
Thanks!  (  ^ (oo) ^  )
Yes, it's a parody of The Cration of Adam. I tried to make a parody of a style of blue tile decoration from Portuguese and Brazilian churches that often features versions of famous religious paintings. Of course, in this case is used to illustrate the character's fantasy.

LOL
The Padre crosses himself right quick there at the end.

And so let Our Host's great experiment begin!
ThaPig

I'm glad you got that one because I wasn't sure if the gesture would be recognized. My first version had lots of arrows all over the place and floating cross icons, but then I thought it was visually overcomplicated.
TheAtomicDog

Even non-Catholics like myself have seen enough Catholic-based comedies to know THAT scene!

I agree. At first I thought he was holding a 4-way arrow, but it only took a second to realize what he was doing.

A toilet in the confessional?  All it needs now is a mini-fridge.
ThaPig
3 years, 1 month ago
No, the tissue is for tears. Lots of people tell sad stories there.
Though I always thought confession booths looked like outhouses.  
( ᐢ (oo) ᐢ )
NaughtyThorn

Is it bad that my quick second thought (after toilet) was that the Padre would use the tissue to clean up after wanking to salacious confessions?
ThaPig
2 years, 10 months ago
No, that's totally part of the joke ( ᐢ (oo) ᐢ )  

And priests becoming horny when hearing raunchy confessions is factual and it can even become a serious problem according the real-life priest on which one future character will be based.

Very cool! Always liked Brina, glad she's got her own comic!

Thanks! I always intended to make a comic with her, but it took me years to actually put it down on paper.

Actually, your character Brina has great erotic potential, but you said yourself that  you have a psychological problem with that.... Because you thought the result was "weird" when you tried to do it .
I think it's a shame because you shouldn't have to work a lot to make it something sweetly erotic...  Not something frankly porn, but something sweetly naughty.
ThaPig
2 years, 10 months ago
Well, my main problem with drawing erotic stuff is I'm not good at it. Basically, it comes out weird because I don't have the artistic skill to make it look good. It always looks to me like I missed the mark. I have drawn cartoon sex for laughs, but I don't expect it to titillate anyone.

However, I had an interesting experience. A friend once told me long before he met me when he was younger he found one of my characters totally hot. But then again, he was at the age you can find an undressed mannequin hot  ( ᐢ (oo) ᐢ )  
LordFoxhole

Well, actually, I think I have (more or less) the same kind of problem because my graphic style is not very realistic...
But you know that many artists do erotic stuff with a humorous graphic style (Dutch, Drakefenwick, Tegerio...).
It may be less complicated than you think : first try to create a gag, and tries to dress it in an erotic disguise
If you want (and If you agree) I can try the experiment with one or two of your female characters... Just tell me which character(s) you want...
ThaPig

To be honest, I'm afraid to let other artists draw my characters because it usually looks so much better than my own version that it kills my will to draw them.  ( ᗒ (oo) ᗕ )

Somehow I understand the problem...
That's why I created this character  🙂

Your work is excellent!
Personally, I like cartoony characters more than realistic ones. I grew up with traditional animations and today's 3D stuff looks lifeless to me. I'm not denying the work of digital artists, I know there is a lot of talent and effort involved. I just have a personal preference for the hand-drawn stuff.

Before I read on, I just want to say I feel you got the lyric rhythm for that metal line real solid. I was able to quickly belt it out and feel the flow. Back to the comic ... >>

<< And back: Wonderful start to the comic. I am reminded of a movie I watched years ago in University about a Muslim man struggling with his obsession of a woman he kept daydreaming about. He was relatively well off with a fairly high managerial position in a large corporation. His Imam was trying to help, even offering him the right to have a second wife, but he didn't want 'a second wife'. He couldn't shake this fictitious temptress, and she was all he wanted. He started seeing her in the faces of people in the street, even chasing after a woman he thought was her. I think he used business assets to do an ad shoot to try finding a model who looked like her. Unfortunately, like many religious morality tales, since he couldn't give up his sinning he ends up dying in sin and any of his family who hadn't already distanced themselves is ruined by the disgrace.

That sounds like a Mexican movie  ( ᐢ (oo) ᐢ )  

I saw a movie once (I can't remember the nationality now) where a guy is married to a girl and after the wedding, they are supposed to go into the house to have sex while both families wait outside. After "consummation" the bed sheets are supposed to be taken outside and there has to be blood on them to prove he had taken her virginity. The guy was young and shy and didn't even know much about sex, so the girl gives herself a nosebleed. The bloody sheet is carried out and passed around while everyone cheered and applauded.

Later in the movie, it's somehow discovered they had cheated on the tradition, so the marriage is annulated and she is given as wife to a different guy. The rest of the movie is about the protagonist obsessed with revenge and daydreaming about torturing and killing her new husband, but eventually, things turn in a way he embraces forgiveness.

I found the "blood" custom revolting, but I guess those people would think the same of my own practices  ( ಠಿ (oo) ಠ )

I wrote those lyrics a time ago when I was myself going through my "angry phase" about religion. I recycled it for the comic because it's perfect for the character. I have some more "songs" like that that will appear in the future,

I must say I know nothing about music and that's fine because Brina's songs are supposed to be bad    ( ᐢ (oo) ᐢ )

Wow so, congratulations on finishing it! I know how hard it is on the attention span to finish a comic.

The visual style may not be to my personal tastes but objectively you do what you do exceptionally well. It invokes the look you wanted perfectly; I am reminded of several comic styles both furry and larger industry looking at this. I mean that in a very positive way.

I meander through that and bring up my personal tastes for a reason. Despite my stylistic preferences I am really digging Brina. That's just good design. I also harbor a particular weakness for opossum ladies.

I'm working on the next episode, but it's been harder than I expected.
