For those of you hoping to get your daily fix of t-n-t, here's a brand new strip, drawn in my new home.I'm still exploring the new city I'm in, and apparently, so is Trent.

Superblogger 8

Thus ends the Superblogger series. There is a high possibility that t-n-t #141 will be delayed by 1 whole day. I'm moving house tomorrow, and it'll be a 7 hour drive. I'm hosting a farewell party tonight so I won't have the time or energy to draw. I feel sad missing an update, but that's life getting in the way! Hehe...

I will try to publish t-n-t #141 on Wednesday, though. So stay around!

Late! I know... but just a few hours, right? I finished doing this piece a few minutes ago, so it's fresh hot off the presses.

Total time to create: 5 hours.

I think I can wrap up the Superblogger series tomorrow.

Part #5 of the (I promise) short Superblogger mini-arc. I mentioned yesterday that the character designs have been tweaked slightly. Today, you can see some of the changes on Mei and Liza. Nothing major, though...

Superblogger 4

Trent's first foray into trying to become a more popular blogger.

On another note, another 45 strips have passed since the last character design tweaking here on t-n-t! It has become a tradition for me to "evolve" and streamline the appearances of the characters every 45 strips. The first took place in t-n-t #46, the 2nd in t-n-t #91 and now, at t-n-t #136, we'll uphold that tradition.

The change at #46 was a rather drastic one, revamping my characters style drastically. The change at #91 was less dramatic, but an important one nevertheless, because I chose to discard Photoshop patterns in my characters' clothing and hair.

The current changes are more subtle, as I believe my style has stabilized a bit. You might notice the new fonts, though. Yes, I have suspected that my previous font was not 100% suitable, and Tony of the amazing Calamities of Nature was great enough to confirm my suspicions. So, what do you think of the sparkling new font?

I just got back from a meeting with my supervising professor at the Uni. The rest of the day will be a lazy one. I have not touched my personal blog in about 2 months now. I should go wipe off the layer of dust that's gathering...

Remember

This is based on conversations that I've had with my friends. We always have to be careful what we tell the ladies, especially when we're all tanked up on beer and cocktails, because a few months down the road, when we say something contradictory, they'll remember...

Today's strip is done in this frameless style because the large amount of dialogue required more space and flexibility.

Enjoy it!

I got this up pretty early today, so I'm pleased. And thanks for the feedback, it's a very good feeling to receive some sort of acknowledgement for my work. I'll put more details on the upcoming move to my own domain very soon, so stay tuned.

Today's comic was inspired by the fact that my room is being flooded with sunshine, despite it being winter. It always lifts my mood up when the weekends are as bright as they are today.

Today's comic strip was drawn in 2 hours after my exams, my final exam paper ever. It's such a relief. We're gonna celebrate tonight. Come back tomorrow for the next update.

Sometimes, I'm like this too. I tell myself a thousand times, go do A. Then I end up doing B. "Do" in a literal sense, not the other "do". Heh.

Protect Our Children

I love how today's one turned out. There are some mistakes in the drawing, well, more awkwardness, really. But it's mainly because it's harder to see such errors until the comic is up on the screen in Photoshop, and by then, it's too difficult to make changes to the original sketch. Unless I get a nice new Wacom Intuos3...

I'd like to thank the following cartoonists once again for their contributions during the week-long t-n-t Webcartoonists Collaborations:
A Slice of Life
A Large Panda
Here There Be Dragons
Invincible Jeff
Bitmap World
School Spirit
Calamities of Nature.

Enjoy today's strip!

*EDIT* Yes, I added 1 word to the dialogue in the 2nd frame. It was in the original scripting, but I accidentally deleted it during one of my multiple revisions of the strip in Photoshop. Stupid me.

Featuring "Calamities of Nature" (scroll down for more)

Today's t-n-t is brought to you with the help of Calamities of Nature by Tony Piro. It is tentatively the last of the t-n-t Webcartoonist Collaborations 2008, as the 8th cartoonist is swamped in real life and may not be able to complete his part. Anyway, today's piece took a lot of time and effort, and you'll probably never see anything like this on t-n-t again. Or not?

Tony kindly provided the crazy banter going on in today's strip, so go check out his wildly popular and beautifully rendered Calamities of Nature. And yesterday was his birthday, so wishes are in order.

See if you can spot 2 references to Tony's comic in the comic above.

The GIF below shows the rough sketch I sent him and the end result with his dialogue:

2008-02-02T14:36:00.000+01:00

Featuring "School Spirit" (scroll down for more)

Daniel VanderWerff of School Spirit brings us the dialogue for today's collaboration, the 6th! In case you don't understand the term "two bagger", it's used to describe a girl whose physical appearance is so..... 'lacking'...... that you put a bag over her head to cover her face, and then put one over yours in case hers breaks and you're recognized going out with her.

If you're a School Spirit fan, you'll spot the hidden references. If you're not a fan, it's about time you got started!

The GIF below alternates between the rough sketch I sent to Daniel and the end result with his dialogue:

Everybody loves Jeff. Especially since he's invincible. Today, the creator of this indestructible character, Andreas Gustafsson, contributes his share to the Webcartoonists Collaboration. Check out his dialogue above, and check out Invincible Jeff here! (*Note: The 1st Season of IJ has finished and the 2nd Season starts in Spring '08, I believe.)

In honor to Jeff, L.J. wears an "Oh Beehive" hoodie today.

Here's the GIF of the initial sketch I sent to Andreas, and the end result. I actually modified the words a bit to suit t-n-t, but the essential concept was his!

Featuring "Here There Be Dragons" (scroll down for more)

Dragons! Everybody loves them. Mythical, powerful, enigmatic, good, evil. Today's Webcartoonist Collaboration is with Chuck Trickey's daily-updating Here There Be Dragons, a humorous twist on the traditional adventure genre.

Spot the hidden dragons in the strip!

Here's the GIF of the initial sketch I sent to Chuck, and watch it blink into the finished version...then back...then finished....then back...then finished.... hypnotized?

Today's Webcartoonist Collaboration is with A Large Panda, a photorealistic webcomic with a political lean by Lord Pandar (I don't know his real name, it's an enigma!).

Check out the cameo in the strip!

Below is the GIF of the sketch I made and sent to Lord Pandar, and the finished version with his words. If you look closely, you'll notice that the mime was entirely his idea. Cool?

EDIT: I just read this on Apathetic Rant, it would've been perfect for t-n-t! Well, ideas are aplenty and I'm sure I'll get the next good one first!

t-n-t #112

2008-01-28T11:44:00.000+01:00

Featuring "A Slice Of Life" (scroll down for more)

I'm back from my week-long hiatus with a special week of guest-authored strips. Today's collaboration is with Noel Graham of A Slice of Life, a 5-times-a-week webcomic. A Slice of Life is abstract, black & white art portraying a "slice" in the life of an unnamed individual, whose "slice" is somehow served with a larger helping of exaggeration and absurdity than usual.

If you're familiar with A Slice of Life (or if you're Noel himself), you might spot a reference in today's comic.

Below, you can see a GIF of the sketch I made and sent to Noel, and then the end result with the dialogue he kindly provided me with.

In case you're all tired of me rehashing old stuff for this 1 week hiatus, I made this random sketch last night while studying... 3 more days till regular updates again! Wait for it!

In the meantime, go read Here There Be Dragons by Charles Trickey, who takes the standard adventure comic and turns it into a humorous daily strip! It's not long and draggy and full of weird terms you'd never understand; instead it's hilarious, witty and he updates every frickin' day! Plus, there's a Dragon!

1 Week Hiatus (20th Jan - 27th Jan) - Hiatus Special #4

Today, I thought we'd look at the evolution of the character designs, and what better way than to compare the banners I've put up so far on this site?

The first banner was used from t-n-t #1 till t-n-t #45, the second one from t-n-t #46 till t-n-t #90 and the current one has been up since t-n-t #91.

Stay tuned tomorrow for more hiatus specials!

2008-01-22T10:56:00.000+01:00

1 Week Hiatus (20th Jan - 27th Jan) - Hiatus Special #3

Today, we take a look at some of the mistakes I made in my comic strips. You may or may not have noticed these errors...

In the strip above, t-n-t #28, I somehow left out the mouse in the bottom panel!

In t-n-t #70, the luggage label which is present in 2 scenes is missing in the train door scene.

Here, in t-n-t #77, I forgot to draw Trent's shirt collar, but coloured them anyway...

In t-n-t #91, the door handle is missing in the 1st panel!

Lastly, Mei's right arm is missing in the first frame of t-n-t #100!

Stay tuned tomorrow for more hiatus specials!

t-n-t Hiatus #2

2008-01-21T15:21:00.000+01:00

1 Week Hiatus (20th Jan - 27th Jan) - Hiatus Special #2

Like I promised, here's the second hiatus special edition.

t-n-t is about a lot of things, but the main theme is about the life of a blogger. In this case, his name is Trent. Today, I looked back at the strips I've published so far and tried to select 3 of my personal favorites which are blogger-related.

t-n-t #67 deals with Trent's absurd idea to dress as a blog to attend a party with L.J. If you've been following this comic strip, you'll know that L.J. is the Anti-Blogger incarnate. I like this strip mainly because the Blog Costume turned out really wacky. Did anyone notice the mouse tail?

t-n-t #57 shows how Mei, the Extremist, deals with people who criticize her blog; she sends "specialists" to handle the suckers. The 'erasing memory' part was inspired collectively by Men In Black and Heroes. I also like how the art in the 2nd panel turned out, even though I've moved away from computer generated props nowadays.

t-n-t #38 gives an insight on a few of the blog categories in existence out there on the internet. There's the hot girls with their photo-laden websites, the gadget-freak blogs for us guys and then there's the emo-i-wanna-slash-my-wrists kind of sites.

Stay tuned tomorrow for more hiatus specials!

t-n-t Hiatus #1

2008-01-20T11:03:00.000+01:00

1 Week Hiatus (20th Jan - 27th Jan)

I will be having exams over the next few weeks (yes, in Real Life), so I'll be putting the comic strip on a week-long hiatus. The site will continue updating though, as I'll be putting up some stuff. Mainly a "t-n-t revisited" series looking back on some of my favourite strips which I've published so far together with commentary. Go here to view the Hiatus Special Editions.

Be sure to check back after the hiatus, though, as I've got a great thing planned! Let's just say that it's a bunch of really, really crazy stuff, with t-n-t's characters saying a load of even wackier dialog than usual....

Oh, and if you stumbled in here today expecting the Sunday strip and found the piece of artwork above instead, don't be disappointed. Go read Stefan Gaulin's Flapjack & Toastie! It's delightful, smart and will give you hunger pangs for a lavish breakfast slathered in butter and served with strong black coffee, non of that pansy Starbucks stuff.

The Great French Fries Dispenser

I was suffering a cartoonist's block when I sat down to make today's strip, so I took a page from the creators of South Park. Everyone loves South Park. Go watch it!

Anyway, for their episode Save Willzyx, they started out with the desire of seeing a dead whale on the moon in the final shot. With this bizarre image in mind, they then wrote a whole story which led to this absurd conclusion.

So I sat down after a dinner of french fries and envisioned a............FRENCH FRY DISPENSER!
And voila~ you have today's gag.

Diary vs. Blog

Since the advent of Internet, the paper version of a personal log, the Diary, has come out in a very big way... Nowadays, everyone and their dog has some form of blog or other, whether it's serious stuff like Blogger, glittery gawdy teenage-y sites like MySpace, or the frequently down Xanga (from personal experience). Nobody keeps a diary now. With Weblogs (source of the word "Blog"), thoughts and opinions which were once private are now paraded in front of huge, anonymous audiences.

Heck, even we webcomic creators are semi-blogging. Look at the lil' section stuffed with words below each update....

Outsourcing

Ok, today's comic strip may be more slavery then outsourcing, but nevertheless, it was inspired one of lecturer's talking about India outsourcing its outsourcing work from the US back to small companies in the US itself! If you love irony, it doesn't get any better than this...

I read stories all over the internet about how some art experts were fooled into thinking that a chimpanzee's finger-painting was the work of some famous modern artist. Don't you just hate it when 'experts' stand in front of some weirdly abstract 'artwork' and draw all kinds of conclusions and assumptions from it? I think it's crap.

Yes, that's the Windows XP standard desktop wallpaper you see up there. I reproduced it as closely as I could with my drawing and photoshopping 'skills'. Enjoy today's comic strip! It took me hours and hours to make... And the Firefox and Norton stethoscope are trademarked logos, not mine!

I was inspired (or rather, exasperated) by the long wait whilst the "Add or Remove Programs" list was 'populated', as Windows puts it. Enjoy today's comic strip!

MORE ANNOUNCEMENTS!!
I've introduced a SEARCH function, which you can see in our brand new Sidebar. Now you can look up your fav strips by typing in key words. To make this work, I'll mention a few key words below each comic strip from now on.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS!!
It's the new year, and a time for changes and fresh starts. Haha, real philosophical. Anyway, I've made numerous changes to the website, all for the better.
The archives have been vastly improved, now you readers have the option of a calendar-style as well as a drop-down list style navigation for the archives, whichever rocks your boat.
The 'About' section has been upgraded to be a more indepth experience. Now, like in Wikipedia, you can click on links throughout the character descriptions to view the relevant comic strip used to narrate each character's life and traits. Go try it out!
You will also have noticed that I made a new banner (above) to match the new style in character design.
And, as usual, you can vote for me by clicking on the buttons below or donate!! Much appreciated, and it'll inspire me to produce more higher quality strips.

I have 2 things to say about today's comic strip:

1. 2007 has been an eventful year, but then, which year in the history of man wasn't? There's always all sorts of happenings which mark and define each year; some of them good, but quite often many of them terrible. Today, as we stand on the threshhold of 2008, I want to remember our fractured attempts in Bali to fix global-warming, the crackdown on protests by monks in Yangon, the Virginia Tech shootings and the Benazir Bhutto assasination in Rawalpindi. I also touched on the sliding US economy versus its military spending and trainwreck celebs like Britney and Paris.

2. t-n-t has taken another stylistic leap forward! I have decided to abandon the use of Photoshop patterns in the characters! I received feedback that L.J.'s Photoshop patterns in particular detracted too much from the overall look of the comic, and so I made the decision to dispense with these patterns altogether for hair and clothing.

Just 2 more days till Christmas! Today's comic is a bit late, believe it or not, I just finished drawing the strip 5 minutes ago! Normally, I'd have a buffer of at least 1 or 2 days, but this week's been so hectic, what with Christmas shopping and projects and exams, that I've been drawing and posting almost on the same day.

Anyway, enjoy today's strip and Merry Christmas...!

3 more days till Christmas. There's still no snow, but the temperatures are pretty low (constantly in the minus region) and so all the trees and stuff are covered in ice!

Today's strip is Part #1 of a 3-strip mini-story arc.

Meanwhile, in other news, the "About" section has been updated! I'll continually expanding the character profiles as the strip grows and evolves, because that's how people are; with time, personalities can change.

One thing I've always got a problem with is the fact that many blogs have flashy, colourful backgrounds that make it impossible for people to read the text. Another pet peeve of mine are fluorescent blog backgrounds! If I enter your blog and it hurts my eyes (literally) to look at it, I'm leaving and never coming back...
