I think her braid needs to be a bit thicker. That's why I hesitated. As is, it looks like the padawan braid from Star Wars. And the blond obviously can't be Fuu, because she lacks glasses. And I know you'd draw her with glasses. So I thought it was some other red hair-blond hair pair (though Fuu is more brown than blond).

No, she just has Magical Disappearing Glasses Syndrome. This has happened to Integra before, too.

Of course, it's a little more significant for Yumiko, because of the whole "crazy split personality" thing.

*fixes*

(Fuu is drawn without glasses because she wasn't wearing them in my reference picture. This isn't a pinup, so I don't think it makes much difference.)

Timothy looks like a second year student in a uniform while attending to collage in japan, nice look though.


I remember dressing like that, just for fun. a Dutch guy attending to a collage in japan, oh well my GF's family is easily amused like that.

Could be holographic force-field glasses like Shion has in Xenosaga. Which woudl imply that either she or her optometrist is from the 27ths century.

On an unrelated note, has Alucard shot up the Thule Society yet? He really should, what with the WWII and the Fullmetal Alchemical Bomb and such.

I would've guessed a red sports car with a dark-skinned bishie talking about the End of the World.

Yes, but this time the issue isn't with ComicGenesis; it's with FireFTP (the Firefox-based FTP client). It had the same problem uploading images to my website (erinptah.com, on a completely different host).

I use WS_FTP; it's worked fairly well so far even though the version I use doesn't seem to have SSH. I rarely trust integrated FTP programs, as I remember the horror days of early IE.

I thought it meant that Heinkel will have to herd hordes of Chu Chus into a nearby rocket whilst fending off the catnip-mad nekomimimode Yumi?

Is it just me? I thought Timothy's current outfit sort of resembles the Valentine Brothers' jumpsuit thing. It's a better color though.

it is in deed a Japanese Male School uniform, i have worn that kind of a 'Monkey suit' my self while i was there.

the reaction of my GF's old school mates was Priceless XD

@todays comic: Cool, that explination of you're mothers seems totally flawless there Erin.

i dont remember much of the Catholic believe my self, i never could care much about it, but it does sound right from what i vagely remember.

a nice Catholic joke for Hellsing:

Soldier: "boss, we got Alexander Anderson walking in the distance..."
Pip: "are you Positive?"
Soldier: "As Positive as a Catholic Priest on drugs."

lol!

He could get mistaken for Mamiya, though. That'd be interesting... (Mikage is my third favorite male lead in Utena, right behind Akio and Ruka.)

So...Heinkel and Yumiko are going to pull a Jack McCoy? Only with less lawyer-speak and more violence? Neat.
