But I must say, that is one fine, chiseled nose. And the sound effects were super! I have to ask... What's the japanese equivalent of "sniggle snoggle"?
Contagious?! Yikes! I may end up growing a nose too . . . except mine would probably be a round little Asian button nose.
And thanks! I had to sit down and try to think of an appropriate sound effect for an about-to-grow-out-nose and somehow ended up with sniggle snoggle. Weird! I don't know what it would be in Japanese...although sound effects are infinitely easier to come up with in Japanese. Maybe something like muzu muzu? mogo mogo?
G with a very angular nose and you with a small, button nose. That'd be a nice contrast indeed =)
Japanese onomatepoeia are quite interesting to me, so that's why I had to ask. There are so many! And then there are names for specific things which stems from the sound they make. Like the toy capsule machines called gachapon/gashapon, and how they've got their name from the sound it makes when you turn the handle and the toy capsule pops out.
Thanks Tze!! No, actually not by G's request but I'd been thinking about changing the way my characters look. And G has a pretty prominent nose...so I thought it's kind of a shame not to draw it. :)
there's no way he is ever going to look Asian with a nose like that.
ReplyDeletewait...but he doesn't look asian...at all...what?
Deletethat is VERY wrong... go see a doctor
ReplyDeleteYeah, we're going to do something about that big lump in the middle of his face.
DeleteI wish this was how it really happened.

Hahahahhaa love that one! Ben's nose is also missing...but...I never draw noses! Was this by G's request? :)
ReplyDeleteAch...the sound effects are so cute...

Delete*glances at Ben's big, quarter-Jewish nose...* Oh well. Maybe one day.
ReplyDeleteYES! But before that, BEN HAS TO DRAW A COMIC! Only after that does he EARN a nose.
DeleteBwahahahahahahahaha XD I like that!
