Summary of your comic: My comic is about the battles of life on a small scale. On a large scale it’s about gods and people, and the smaller gods in between. It’s past horrible memories and moving on with your life. It has struggle and strife, and even good feelings.
As I have on my Project Wonderful Page:
Serious story, not-so-serious art. An anthro webcomic about missing memories, cloned kids and a distaste for gods. Dragons, Tressyms, and Tigers oh my! Updates EVERY Friday!
Ginpu.us is an anthro/furry webcomic. While the artwork stays in PG, the language occasionally goes to PG-13. Ginpu.us has been up and running for over 4 years now.
What is art to you?
It’s a way to express oneself. Whether it be literal and straight to the point or crytic and avant garde, Art is an expression of one’s thoughts, feelings and soul. (sound like an art snob ey?)
What inspired you to draw Captain TGT as you did?
Combination of things. I specialize in anthro art & my comics are anthro, so it just came naturally. I wanted something of a little different captain. The weapon is a jutte or jitte. Something a low ranking samurai would use to uphold the law. I felt this would also reflect my fondness of many things Japanese. The outfit is inspired by some modern day wear and outfits you would find in Shadowrun settings. Cyber-punk. This would be my fondness of things of the technological persuasion. The color & fur pattern was based off a kitten I was eying at our humane society’s website. (who I’m adopting & picking up this Saturday). Why green? Thought it would help people link it to the future, to technology. I don’t use green that much so I thought it’d be nice for a change. Poor color being left in the cold like that. XD
