Been busy lately - Yonkomas 5,6 and 7

Due to midterms and a whole bunch of deadlines to meet I haven't had much time to post, much less draw daily. But here are 3 yonkomas which i posted on dannychoo.com before but had not posted here. As soon as the exams are over and i complete all my papers i will go back to blogging regularly ^ ^. And i have also made a new film which i will be posting later as well.
Love this one due to its randomness. The ending comment is the perfect description. I think up this sorta things all the time, but because there are so many i forget all of them. And randomness and nonsense are my favorite type of humor ^ ^. The influence of Cromartie High is obvious in the last panel ^ ^
Ok so this one is about your standars in a way too, but for ladies, and with lots of satire.
This one is probably my favorite so far ^ ^. Absolute 132% best-quality nonsense, its like o-toro of tuna. Dont remember how otoro is written so screw it lol. This yonkoma teaches people to look at things differently. Life will surely be more enjoyable that way ^ ^.

Anyway i'm done for now here. I have one more yonkoma ready but wont be posting that now ^ ^. Hopefully i will get done with schoolwork as soon as possible..

Yonkoma 4 - Dreams. Comes with thoughts on life...

So here is the fourth 4koma. This one is about being picky in relationships. I certainly can say that i am. The few times when i described by expectations for a girlfriend i was told every time that they are a bit high, if not nearly impossible to reach. Well its possible, its just that the chances are small of me finding someone like that and then being liked in return. But then again, one could follow the philosophy of "all or nothing"... Maybe thats why i am single lol

Anyway, about the production of this 4koma. This one took a whole big chunk of my time, which it shouldnt have. The reason is my love of details and perfection. Which i might amply say i did not even get close to achieving. This was worsened by the fact that i drew this directly on the computer, without drawing it on paper first. That sorta method makes it easier to get carried away with unnecessary detail (mostly via Ctrl+Z). But i am pretty happy about how it looks, except for panel 4. Panel 3 i should change i think. That balerina pose is beautiful, but it doesnt quite carry out the message it originally intended to [the panel].

I am getting more and more into owarai. I want to understand comedy better. I like making people laugh, and i often do so with my friends. But i cant make myself cheer up and be a fun person when i am not in a good mood (which is often). If i am down, or tired, all i come up with are cynical and mean jokes which only i can enjoy, which i do hardly. So im thinking maybe i should be a more cheerful person? This dillema is quite depressing. Orz
