[4-Panel] It's about time!

[akita-ken 581]

Well it's been almost a few months since I've posted anything in Fan Art now! So much has been happening though. Between preparing all the paperwork required before completing my term of service with the army and doing things like settling my plans for university, I've had little time to properly sit down to do any drawing apart from the odd hour here and there that I managed to squeeze in.
 
It's been close to two months since I've started this comic and I have nearly given up on it more than once due to the tediousness of it all, but the time has come, I've finally completed it!
 
I doubt I'll be trying to pull off another one any time soon though, art does not come as a natural talent for me and so it actually takes me pretty long to generate stuff with all the erasing and redrawing involved. A single panel from this one easily took me a few days of constant work each time.
 
Granted, it was probably because I adopted a new technique and stopped using the lazyman method of just getting the line art done in Illustrator and then exporting it to Photoshop to paintbucket in the fills, but I found that this creates a much smoother fill, even if I have to manually trace in every single colour one by one. Therefore yes, the entire strip is vector and was done fully in Illustrator with no other program involved. 
 
While I'm disappointed at how I've never really been able to replicate the show's style fully, I've more or less come to accept that this is as show-accurate as I'll ever get unless I meditate enough and attain some enlightenment in the form of a newfound drawing technique. 
 
Anyway, I've bored all of you enough with my self-deprecating rant. This one is dedicated first and foremost to @thegoodhen, who has always had the time to share his interesting projects with me and was the one who gave me the inspiration to do this in the first place, as well as to all the other Arduino bronies out there!

 

I hope my sense of humour isn't too corny

That's really clever! Hooking up a digital clock to an old fashioned analog...your humor had not gone unrecognized. Fine work on this comic, a very good job well done.
