Update: 12-27-09
Nestly: And here we have the conclusion to Santa Istoven. Hope you enjoyed the 2-page Christmas comic. :3 Sorry I'm always late updating it on the website, but again, we update more frequently on DA. So check it out if you haven't already! [LINK]
Update: 12-24-09
Nestly: Christmas special time! Just like I promised! Back in kid land, Miles, Poppy, and some other side characters go to the Pawlock house to sit on Santa Istoven's lap. I wonder what Miles and Poppy will ask for...? Check tomorrow for the next page! :D
Update: 12-23-09
Nestly: Huh. Wonder what's going on there. Just one of those random funny anime screenshots.
Sorry for the lack of updates, and no, it's not because of Christmas holidays like all of the other web comics use for an excuse. We're just trying to get as many pages done as possible before we release them. Expect something on Christmas though. ;3
Update: 11-23-09
Nestly: ...Yeah I need to stop being lazy with this website. I guess I just assume everyone who reads this comic watches it on DeviantArt, so I'm all like 'whatev' about it. Yah yah.
But there you have it! Finally. The conclusion of Close-Call Concert. I hope it gave you guys a good first view of the main characters and got you interested in their stories. :3
Now for the semi-bad news. We're not gonna show Flourishing Friendship as promised right afterwords. Please don't kill me! *flinch*
Reason being is because it ruins the chronological release order for Drama at the Dance, so we want to concentrate on showing that story first. This comic will be in black and white, so that means that updates will be MUCH more frequent, which I hope makes up for it. The story is already drawn out to 50 pages, so we're way ahead of the game in that department too.
For those who are grabby for the short n' sappy comic though, (FF) we have plaaaaaans for it, don't you worry. Stick around and see. ;3
Update: 11-15-09
Nestly: Sorry for the delay AGAIN. This time my keyboard stopped working. Yay!
Anyways. Enough excuses. The 20th page is up on the website. Only one more page to go before this story is concluded! Don't worry though, there's plenty of other comics in the works. :3
Update: 11-11-09
Nestly: The shoutbox is temporarily taken off the front page, since the host of it was bringing pop-ups onto the page, and that's... not cool.
If you feel the need to say something, it's still currently on the other main pages of the website, (except "Characters", as I'm trying to fiddle with that one.) So in the meantime, just enjoy a pop-up free page I suppose. O:
Update: 11-7-09
Nestly: Sorry it's a day late for the website, but I didn't have enough time to post it on DA and here both last night. Updates will always be seen first on DeviantArt!
Miles and Poppy catch up and there seems to be more dialog page cliff-hangers! Ohnoes.
Update: 11-3-09
Yellow World by Samm Neiland
Nestly: We are very honored to have had Samm write and compose a SONG inspired by MaP!
If you enjoy the song, feel free to visit his site and have a go at the rest of his music. Well done Samm! (You are so so cool!)
SAMM.NEILAND.MUSIC
Quote from Samm: It was actually written in the course of about three days and was inspired by a little comic that a friend of mine does (which I'll post to later when I get the okay to xD) and its essentially about how soul mates; be they friends, lovers, siblings, whatever, are so deeply connected that one without the other makes life almost seem totally pointless and meaningless. At least that's the general idea behind it.
Nestly: Hop on over to the Fanart section if you want the lyrics. If you want the MP3, feel free to e-mail me or Centch. (Look in contacts)
Update: 10-30-09
Nestly: It's that time again! Page time. Which equals awesome time. Miles and Poppy finally get out of that icky underground garage and into the parking lot! And part of me cries because these backgrounds are even harder to draw now. 8(
Have a merry Halloween everyone!
Update: 10-23-09
[CCCREVAMP PAGES 16 & 17]
Nestly: Enjoy the two page update. :3 ACTION TIME!
I am whole-heartedly going to try getting at least one page up every Friday. (At around 8PM, CENTRAL time.) So you can look forward to sooner updates. ^w^
Please leave a comment/feedback if you enjoy reading, yo. ;B
Update: 10-20-09
Nestly: Sorry but this isn't a page update. 8(
But it is fun! Any interest in seeing a Poppy plushie? Click on the link to visit a site called Patch Together. It's a very neat little site where artists can submit designs to be made into real products! But you need enough votes! It's kind of annoying since you need to make an account there, but if you take the time to do that and vote/comment for Poppy, it's free, and you will be supporting MaP more than you know. Seriously. At this point in time, fans and general interest means everything and it decides the future of this concept. So show your support, monkeys! (I love our fans. <3)
Update: 10-14-09
Nestly: Haha. Just kidding. That's not the real page, you silly monkeys. But this is! Although good luck taking it seriously, especially with Miles wearing a shirt like that. *snort*
Anyways, to those who enjoyed the very silly SPOOF page, you can visit it's awesomeness by clicking HERE.
Update: 10-11-09
Nestly: CLICK HERE FOR NEW PAGE!
...Wait a second.
Update: 9-24-09
Nestly: Ohboy a new page! After a month has gone by. We suck.
I promise to wrestle more pages out of Centch sooner from now on. I've got many drafts stacked up and blah blah blah. Excuses.
Anyways OHNOES! Looks like Poppy is in trouble with this guy. You know, 'cause no one saw that coming... OMAI!
Update: 8-28-09
Nestly:Oops. I forgot to update this site with the latest page. It's been hard to stay focused with the comic lately since Centch has been staying with me. We keep bugging each other to continue with this darn comic, haha.
So we went to this craft store and Centch bought a big-ass pad of comic sheet paper to draw the comics on. Everything was going great, but then we realized my scanner wasn't big enough to scan it...
We tried doing that at Kinkos, but it would've cost $7 freaking bucks for each page, so we said screw this idea and proceeded to chop up each frame and scan them individually. So much for being professional. I wish I had a big scanner. 8(
Update: 8-2-09
Nestly: And now....
The Adventures of Poppy in the Bathroom.
She becomes enraged by the absence of her favorite concert and goes on a spree of beating men with doors!
Hey, if you don't believe me, just click the image!
Update: 7-22-09
Nestly: New page so soon?
Oh boy oh boy!
Miles can never catch a break. Not even at a fun-filled concert.
That's because I love to make him miserable. 8)
Update: 7-14-09
Nestly: Ask and you shall receive! ...Archives that is! I added comic page links to all the pages of Close-Call Concert so far, so hopefully it will be easier to navigate to the page you want!
The only problem with putting them on every single page is that I have to update each one... each update. ...Wow I dug my own grave with that one huh? *sigh*
Update: 7-12-09
Nestly: A month without updates? I don't blame people if they lose interest! 8(But thankfully, we have one new page for Close-Call Concert. Centch decided she would rather kill herself over struggling with getting a bajillion background characters looking detailed when I was just going to overlay it all with flashy lights anyways. *shakes head* She needs to do things in an easier way. Tist tisk.
You get to see the band members of this concert finally, and it's just a fun themed page. Stay tuned for more!
Update: 5-15-09
Nestly: So I added some little posty things on the bottoms of every comic page! (Posty things?) Yeah. You know. Those comment boxes. So people who don't have a DA account can share their comments on individual pages. See any details you just have to point out? Critiques on the art? Questions, realizations, or predictions? Now you can post away! You typing ninja, you.
In other news, Close-Call Concert is slacking. I know. Centch has been just drawing away the Drama at the Dance comic. We've been kind of putting our attention towards that. (I know, bad bad. Somebody slap me, I need it!) It's probably a retarded idea to upload more than one comic at a time, but we figure it's better than seeing nothing, eh? (I'm such a horrible manager.)
Centch is revamping the first few pages of DATD, and those will be up shortly, so keep an eye out!
Grand Opening!!
Update: 5-7-09
Miles: Well, we finally got the site finished up enough to be opened to to public!
Poppy: Whee! And we hope you enjoy what we have in store for you guys! 83
Miles: *nod* Plenty of small comics, art, and other things to keep your eyes happy.
Poppy: My eyes are happy already! Look at all this periwinkle... Ohhh... *_*
Miles: Well we can obviously tell who was in charge of the layout color choices.
Poppy: If we went with your choices, this page would be all gray and boring! >XD Nyaa!
Miles: Alright alright. Heh. I'll leave the creative stuff to you.
Poppy: Yay! ^w^ Now on with the show!
Miles: Updates will be posted on the homepage. Look out for any new things added. Of course, our DeviantArt page is usually updated first, so if you have an account there, please subscribe to us! [LINK]
Thanks for stopping by, we hope you enjoy the new site.
Poppy: We finally have our very own website~! Eeeee so exciting. <3 *dances with Miles*
Miles: ¦D !!
