2009 Work Summary

Because everyone else did it...?

Anyways, it seems like the whole year of 2009 was dedicated to Hetalia. I started reading it at the end of January, only because I was curious of the Korean incident.

To be honest, I am fairly an ill-tempered person. Fortunately, to compensate for that, not many things in this world can piss me off. (However, when I do get pissed off, I am very indulgent of my emotions) So I am very curious of how certain things can make people so angry, which led to a nation-wide denunciation of a webcomic...
But I fell in love with Hetalia instead.

I really did a whole bunch of Yao x Ivan...

The February one was the first time I successfully completed a picture using Painter 9.0. Painter is a sadistic software.

Starting from April, I switched from OpenCanvas to SAI. SAI is magical, and I've been using it since then. April was hell to me. I wrote my thesis during that time, and it was Feliks's National Anthem that kept me going: March march Dąbrowski, help me defeat Biochemistry -- wtf it rhymes! .

So Feliks's birthday actually means something to me, besides that it is the "Single Awareness Day" in China (11/11). Sadly I was really busy at that time and I didn't get to do a picture for Feliks's birthday. I didn't even get to do one for Yao either, and I'm sure I will be missing Ivan's as well. *cry*

In May, I graduated from college and started the first manga/doujin in my life -- "Please Teach Me a Way to Betray That Person." At first the story included Gilbert, but then it would make the story too long. Therefore I changed my mind and ripped him off the cover. It was planned to be 40 pgs, but it has now gone to pg 70 and it's still going...

To pair up with August pic, I promise I will do a Russian wedding later, with Yao as the bride.

September was a death month for me...medical school application and the search for a job kept me in hell.

In October I did the one and only Russia/China pic in my gallery. Whether it will remain the one and only depends on this person:

Since then I've dedicated my time to my doujin. December's pic is a frame in a page that I haven't uploaded yet. As for what those Chinese words are...ugh...you don't need to know OTL

Thank you very much for supporting Setomi in the year of 2009. I will do my best in 2010 too!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
谢谢！ Free hugs for everyone
