brand new comic strip by the designer of FOF home screen art

this is cyril from franchise football league. My work is what you see first everytime you open front office football now (shameless plugging i know... please pardon me here)

I have always wanted to do a comic strip. Originally I wanted to do a football themed one but I reckoned all those uniforms/helmets are so complicated to draw... and I shifted focus to an entirely different direction... a baby and his milk bottle. I want to capture the "innocence" of a baby and his mischievous daily routines. I am drawing inspirations from Calvin and Hobbes, my all-time favorite comic strip. I want to keep the drawing style simple and clean, relatively speech-free and take fewer than 10 seconds to digest. After years of procrastination, I finally took the action and launched the strip on both facebook and tumblr. I plan to update the strip at least 2/3 times per week.

Onion Baby

fan page on FB where you can "like" and "share" (so you will be notified whenever a new strip is posted) and leave comments:

https://www.facebook.com/onionbabycomics

Please go check it out and if you like what you see, make sure you hit "like" and "share" on FB and help spread the words to your friends and families! As fellow GM, I would greatly appreciate your support and any comment you have (which you can leave on the FB page)

And Happy St. Patrick's Day!

First of all congrats to ending the procrastination to a dream and hoping for much success for this however you define it.

I appreciate the art. Very talented.

As for the comics themselves, it's probably just me but I don't get 'em.
