Many thanks, the world is spinning around again after having stopped for months over months :-)

As a non-native speaker I feel always happy about finding out the deeper meaning of words. Newest example: DEEPRESSION.

Cheers,

I read through your series a few days ago, and I have been meaning to thank you for sharing it. So, thank you for this lovely series Inkwolf!

I'm on the edge of my seat. Thanks for the new pages!

Just posting a progress report so you know I haven't run off on a video game bender again. XD

I'm working on Page 171 now. I haven't rough-sketched all the way to the end, but I think it will end on about Page 180.

I will be sorry to say goodbye to Aji and his friends, but I have a fun new project coming up that I'm also looking forward to. My brother writes role-playing games and has asked me to illustrate a Watership-Down-style rabbit RPG. Drawing bunnies is always fun. ^^

For your amusement, here's a doodle of how Aji might look if he was human. Also, some bunny doodles for ya, if you're interested. ^^

I surely will cry when Aji’s Quest ends. The thought of it already makes me want to cry.

Good luck and success and fun with your next project, I’m sure they will love your bunnies as much as we all love Aji and his friends :-)


Greetings, Tom

Hello, Inkwolf can you share which font are you using in your comics?

Thanks for your work

The main font I use is Acme Secret Agent with a license that says it's free for indy comic use. For some of the shouting, I use SF Slapstick Comic. (It's shareware, free to download, but $19.95 for commercial use. I will have to pay that before the comic goes to print.)

For The Wrath of the Clams I use Demon Night. For Sir Keima's speeches I use Bastarda. I believe both are completely free (or at least I know nothing to the contrary.)

Thanks for info and fast answer, but I just realize that polish language have few more special characters so I can't use them :(.
Anyway I started to translate your introduction to GO, files are now on https://drive.google.com/?tab=mo&authus ... Gt2U2w3czQ.

I will probably use Anime Ace, but let see. I need to try it...

Very cool, good luck with the translation! Wow, yeah, Polish seems to have a lot of custom letters!

Hang in there, Joaz! :D

Three pages left to draw. Maybe the only motivation I really needed was to know I'd have another exciting project to look forward to when I was done...like the way I got a kitten when my previous dog was old so that I wouldn't have to be in the apartment alone when she died. XD I have to admit, I got a little teary-eyed when I did the rough sketch for the final page!

Anyway, probably won't have time to finish till next weekend.

I don't expect to put out the print version immediately. For one thing, I was thinking of drawing a couple of extras to go in it. (A shortish comic about Go etiquette for kids, for one thing.) And not going to do that right away, either.

In the meantime, I am thinking of putting a Paypal donation button on the page, now that I know I'm definitely going to finish. And/or maybe making a Café Press shop or something with Aji merch.(Not that I hear that's very profitable.) What do you think? Would you be interested in ordering Aji's Quest t-shirts or coffee mugs?

I am pleased that Aji translations are going on in German and Dutch, and I have recently given permission for a webcomic version in Polish. That makes Aji's Quest the most-translated thing I've ever done...

You have to ask?

I would be likely to buy an Aji shirt. Of course.

I promise that although I might be the first to say so, I won't be last.

I recently watched "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" and sometimes it made me think of Aji's quest. Sort of an absurd journey with mountains and guards and monsters and dangers. I like the humor in both a lot..

Well...it's been almost two years since I started drawing Aji's Quest...

And now it's done. Pages 166-180 are up now!


Hope you have enjoyed this journey as much as I have!
