Thank you, Mr. Toriyama

The only thing bigger than your contributions to entertainment is our collective sadness from losing you.

Smack & Snack: Coming Soon

This is the logo for the next Omake Theater webcomic series: Smack & Snack. I'm currently dealing with some internal strife when it comes to finalizing the main characters designs. I have almost the first year's worth of comics written, but I keep going back and forth on the artwork. Shouldn't be much longer before this new series begins.

Not much to say. Pretty cut and dry.

My sketch panels are all blank except for the first one. That's because almost all of the work was reused from Yōikoma #58 ( https://omaketheater.com/yoikoma/yonkoma-58/ ) and any changes were done without sketches in ...

A Picture Covered Up by a Thousand Words

The salaryman from the previous comic ( https://omaketheater.com/yoikoma/yonkoma-97/ ) had a very simplistic character design. Not much to offer, but I tried to make the most of him.

Being out of practice, I wound up doing the line art for this comic twice. What you are seeing are my lower opacity sketches with the first round of linework on top of it.

Brief Update

Not dead. Working on things behind the scenes. Hope to return sooner than later. Sorry for the lack of updates and vagueness.

My sketches for this one are kind of in between. Originally I had planned to make it full color like a Friday 4Koma, but it wound up taking way too much time. So I decided to make it into a Yōikoma instead.

I have no idea why I was dead set on using a Mayan calendar in this comic, but it took forever to make. The entire comic took 5 and a half hours to make. Over three hours of that was on the calendar.

I found an image of the Mayan calendar stone tablet online and recreated it in a simpler vector fo...

It's been a fun ride so far. Thank you for your continued support!

Clearly that guy in less than a mile away. Thought about making him smaller, but it wouldn't look right.

I chose to wait for a blue color palette to come around before making this comic, for obvious reasons.

Been a weird couple of years. I think I came up with this comic over a year ago. That far behind where the series should be at this point. Crazy...

Good suggestion, but you sent it to the wrong person.

If you look through the history of my sketches, you will see the less comfortable I am with an art style the more rough the sketches.

Believe it or not, this comic was written awhile ago I just didn't get around to it until now.

Not much to say about these sketches. I used the generics, which are the easiest thing for me to draw. Hopefully the next comic comes sooner than later.

Latest Yōikoma ( http://omaketheater.com/yoikoma/yonkoma-127/ ).

I would add sketches for the latest Yōikoma, but there are none. I've been so swamped for time between personal matters and my 9-to-5 that I haven't had the time to draw. So, I used panels from existing strips and just recolored them to match.

Here are where all the artwork for this comic came from:

I did a lot of simple sketches for this one. I was able to look at previous comics art to get the design for Ken, which saved some time too.

I love that the Internet's face is vector. Makes it much easier to do the rotation.

I say latest, but I think this is the only one I will ever make. That said, I did need to create a whole new section on the website just to view it.

The sketches are pretty much the same as the final product, minus the second panel (which I wound up stealing my artwork from comic #102) and the bonus panel (where I redrew your mom's leg and the placement of Onii-san's hand).
