#244 – Skitunge
Wednesday, June 10th, 2009I’ve been busy taking care of some important things in Malmö so the comic is a little delayed. I’m really loving these watercolours though. Nice practice for Sketch-A-Thon! 
This is the last week for Sketch-A-Thon, and the last week to donate for original art from me, and insuring Anders Loves Maria runs smoothly for the next while. Thanks to everyone that has donated so far. Your support really means a lot to me!
Sketch-A-Thon 2
* Each and every donation: The new diary strip (Attention: spoilers! So let me know if you don’t want this) and the mini comic pdf Sex and the Suburbs (These will be emailed to you, make sure your email address is included in your paypal donation form)
* $25+ dollars: A6 hand-inked sketch b&w or simply coloured with Protip markers.
* $50+ dollars: A6 hand-inked, hand-painted watercolour.
* $100+ dollars: A5 hand-inked, hand-painted watercolour.
The highest donor will, on top of their sketch/painting, receive:
* An original hand-inked/painted page from the comic (available comics can be seen in the store)
* The original journal comic done for this Sketch-A-Thon (4 pages, hand inked and coloured) Includes spoilers!
* A signed original copy of the minicomic Sex and the Suburbs (nsfw). There are only 10 left and I’m keeping all but one.
Please, please, please be sure to include in the form what you would like a sketch of.
Since this sort of thing tends to take time you will be mailed an order number and you can check your order status here.

I love the watercolors in the last two comics, especially the roseiness (sp) in tina’s cheeks. The emotion Is so clear with just the pictures!

Awh Tina. I really disliked her until now.
Also, the watercolours are really nice. Subtle and pretty.

What does “skitunge” mean, please?

“Skitunge”: “unge” means baby animal, kid, child, same wordstem as in young. “skit”, well, replace the k with an h… “That young peice of sh*t” but it could be used tolerantly. (Remember Lena’s daughter LS)
Somehow I don’t think it’s meant that way here ;D
I love the pale pinks, btw, very suitable for Tine-flashback.

The only thing I would like to know is if Johan impregnated Tina after they left their home or before? Looks like after. And were they kicked out because they were caught “hanging with Mario” or some other reason like their parents were regained custody of Johan and Maria again?

I still don’t like Tina, but I’m starting to sympathize with her. :C Love the watercolors.

So then, if unge means small, young etc, and skit means shit…
That means Skitunge is little shit?

Skitunge would be something like a little brat, or a piece of shit-kid.

Glad to see you back to traditional media! I love your light watercolors, and your simple, free inks!
