Another installment of my SGA chibi Comic series

So, it's been a bit, but finally got around to finishing another McShep Chibi comic. Haven't done much art recently, feels good to be getting back to it!

In other news, I'm reading House of Many Ways, the new sequel to Diana Wynne Jones's Howl's Moving Castle. Don't love it as much as Howl's (which would be a very hard thing to do, really, considering my level of adoration for that book ^_-) but it's always great to see all the characters again. I'm tickled that it's been 18 years since she wrote the last one, but in book time it's been less then two! ^_^



So, tried something a little bit different with this one. I had some free time at work, so decided to ink it. Only then it called out for some color/shading, but a full job takes waaaay too long, so, um...I compromised? Took longer than usual but still much faster than full color. Hope it works! ^_^



Okay, I admit it, I have a thing for the kid!fics. I can't help it! [livejournal.com profile] sheafrotherdon's Iowa 'verse was one of the very first McShep stories I read, and well, what with it's cuteness beyond words, it left a lasting impression! ^_-

As always, thanks to my sister and beta, [livejournal.com profile] xparrot.

C & C is always much love ^_^ *huggles*

Cute and adorkable. I loved Rodney's interruption of John's yearning and pining, and then how quickly he caved...

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, thanks! Can anyone really resist a full on pouting John? Most especially Rodney!^_-

This is just adorable! ♥

Thanks! ^__^

Awww. The utter cuteness. And Rodney ticking off all the reasons why its a bad idea. Hahah. Awesome. Thanks for sharing!

P.S. It would be "biologists" the plural form, not "biologist".

*ack* Thanks for pointing that out, just fixed it. Me and my sister both missed it, oops! :-p

Glad you like, thanks! *huggles*

OMG, the CUTE. Especially Rodney's little worry-face in panel four. He simply cannot say no to John! :D

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, thanks! No, he really really can't! But really, can anyone, when John's full on pouting? ^_-

[identity profile] ladyoflisquill.livejournal.com 2009-01-22 08:13 pm (UTC)(link)
So adorable!

*dolphin noises* Aw, look at John being all dreamy, and then he's so sad, but of course Rodney can't deny him anything. And his little dream of them with a baby, ♥, ♥ and ♥ again! Love this so much!

Is Rodney trying to teach Torren geometry?

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Aww, glad you like!

And yes, I believe he is...well, I'm sure that's what Rodney was doing at that age, so...^_-

[identity profile] giusytriso.livejournal.com 2009-01-22 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Awwwww.... John's dreaming face and the sad one are too cute! You always manage to make them SO adorable. Just beautiful. :)

I join the "Awwwwwww" group! In RL I don't care to spend time with the young'uns, but watching these two deal with babies and kids is too fun! Thanks for my squishes for the week!

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, thanks!

I'll admit, I have a fondness for the little ones...as long as I get to send them home with their parents at the end of the day! ^_- But John and Rodney with them? I just can NOT resist! (well, really, guys with kids in general is just too cute, but especially these boys! ^_-)

So glad yo like! *huggles*

Adorable. Thanks for sharing.

Aww, thanks! You're welcome! ^_^

[identity profile] cienna.livejournal.com 2009-01-22 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Aww... so adorable! I'm glad Rodney saved the day in the end. Couldn't bear anymore of chibi!John's sad face.

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks!

Yeah, poor Rodney, can anyone really endure sad!John for long? ^_-

[identity profile] therentgirls.livejournal.com 2009-01-22 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh that was just adorable! More, please.

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks...hopefully they'll be at least a few more down the line...

[identity profile] almostnever.livejournal.com 2009-01-22 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
The artwork looks great! Great little illo of them with the baby. And hee, "Do we have to talk about this?" "Nooooo..." is pretty much the epitome of the John/Rodney dynamic. :D

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Aww, thanks! And yeah, these boys and their communication skills, ehehehe...^_- *smishes them*

I was so afraid that you would stop now - but I am one of those of little faith and I should have forseen that you would just go on bringing us little snippets of delight! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!

PS - I'm with you on the kidfic thing, even if I haven't actually written one myself yet...!

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Aww, you're welcome! So glad yo like! I'm hoping there's still at least a few more in me. These boys are just ever so fun to draw!

Aww, John wants a baby! :D

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, well, how can he resist, especially when he knows how adorable a daddy Rodney will be! ^_-

[identity profile] seadragon-redux.livejournal.com 2009-01-22 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, the inevitable 'portable womb'. Though I really do think that the two of them trying to raise a kid would be a serious comedy of errors. Rodney would have a schedule and a plan and be thrown when the kid varied from it and John would be stuck when the slouchy charm thing didn't work *laughs*

Still, they do look so cute. Especially Rodney with the data pad teach Torren.

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Them with a kid would be hysterical! Though adorable!

John would be stuck when the slouchy charm thing didn't work *snicker* It's funny cause it's true! ^_-

[identity profile] d_odyssey.livejournal.com 2009-01-22 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Awww, Rodney just can't resist John. Those sad woobie faces. Yay for the ancient womb and cuddling, smiley boys. Adorable!

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Who can resist, really, when John's like that? ^_- So glad you like, thanks!

[identity profile] debris_k.livejournal.com 2009-01-23 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww! I totally love your SGA comic, and the boys are always so. Darn. Cute! in them, I dunno how you can keep it up without melting all over from the warm fuzzies, the love for you and them so big. ♥

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Heee, thanks! I do have ever so much fun with drawing them chibi, so glad you like!

*Whimpers.* The bottom left panel just about broke my heart.

To be honest, I don't do kidfic, but I can understand the appeal.

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Aww, sorry? But at least John gets his cuddles in the end! ^_-

In part it's just that I find guys with children adorable in general. I often squee in RL when I see fathers being cute with their kids, so...

Also, your icon is adorable!

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! I just wanted to pet john and his sad face! Yay for giving in and cuddling and baby!soonish! :)

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Heee, thanks! Yeah, I don't think Rodney has a chance in hell of standing up to that face for long! ^_-

[identity profile] adafrog.livejournal.com 2009-01-23 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
eeeeee!!!!! I love it!

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay, thanks!

[identity profile] stitcher2ficcer.livejournal.com 2009-01-23 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
The range of expressions on John's face in these frames is quite amazing, from the infatuation of the first frame to the unhappiness-turned-content in the last two. Great fun! The inking and shading look great. As always, I envy your ability to render fabric; even your cartoon blanket drapes very nicely--with the valley folding between them in the fourth frame, accentuating the divide between them. Very sweet piece. Add me to the list of folks who want to see the kid. ^__~

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, mom. Yeah, I was having fun with fabric, as always ^_-

And as for a sequel, we'll see, we'll see! *huggles*

Aww, so cute! Do you allow icons to be made from your art, with credit given?

[identity profile] gnine.livejournal.com 2009-01-25 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, thanks!

Yes, I do allow iconing, feel free (though I am hoping to post another list of icons like I did for the first batch of comics in the near future, so...either way. ^_^)
