Everyone has this one story that they want to tell more than anything. A love project. Mine just happens to be a really silly story about a guy who cleans toilets and doesn't have a nose. Haha!

I started drawing the first version of this comic about 2 and a half years ago (woah!). I dropped it this Christmas, after over 150 pages, because I realized it was too badly drawn (the first pages were two years old after all, and to be honest... I was very bad at drawing back then) and that the story did not progress in a way I was satisfied with (due to me starting it without having any idea were I was going). Still, this was the project that got me back into drawing comics after some years funk and it gave me a lot of practice that, quite frankly, was what made me able to get accepted to the Comic School.

For the past 6 months or so I've been planning to start redrawing it, using the same characters but changing around a lot within the story. Since the summer started and I got more time on my hands I started preparing for real. And now, after lots of redesigns and rewriting, I have started uploading it to SmackJeeves! It updates each Wednesday and Sunday.

As for now there's just the cover page and the first page up, but here's the link!
That is an amazing title...
Since I now know a lot of great comic artists I've been a bit worried about my own comics. I know how quick we tend to be to disregard others work. And I do not have the best drawing skills, nor are my plots that extraordinary. But I kind of realized that I shouldn't worry what everyone else thinks as long as I make a comic that I find fun to draw! (and hopefully people will find it fun to read as well)
