A (somewhat) Humble Returning
Heya! Didn't see you there. How am I? Yeah. I'm fine. You see, a lot has been going on and chnaged ever since I was gone from DeviantArt for the past 2 years. Like, I became more matured, I'm now at University, I mainly more focused on my biggest mod project yet, and so on. But yeah. After checking out of my DeviantArt contents, it gave me the aduacity to come back for a little while to share some news and so.
Anyways, I have two announcements to make as I am currently here. And they're both from the same series. And here they are:
A Rebooted CountryRound.
Yes. The 2016 comic series that brought me into the fame of DeviantArt is making a comeback, and despite still sticking on it's old root, it have some new thrills. Ever since I grew older, did some further researches, and so on, I decided to rework on most of the characters personality, designs, and even some new faces.
The faces are now HDfied by the thanks of Adobe Animate (which I'm going to be using to make some artworks and stuff for now on). The rebooted with includes some remakes from the original CountryRound, and even some new one. So who knows on what it's coming from this Reboot?
Plus (and if luckily), there might be a chance that the Reboot will include some short animations (since I started to get a hang of animations for quite some time during my 2 years absense hiatus). At first steps, it will go simple. But as it continues, it'll become more developed and such. I can't wait to get the bottom of that somewhere in the future.
But anyways, here is an image of the returning faces and new faces on the CountryRound Rebooted Looks:
Well techinally, that's not all of them, all of them. There are some that are missing. But, they will be revealed later in the future. By the way (if you haven't noticed), The CountryRounds uses their old ball design from CountryRound 2. It was originally going to be a higher quality of the ball design from CountryRound 1, but because of many new faces, I decide it to drop the idea. And plus, it's pretty old new if you think about it.
So yeah. CountryRound is coming back with some glory. Despite being the same name as the original, you can call it as either "CountryRound (2023)" or "CountryRound Rebooted". Whatever floats your boat.
But it's not just the first CountryRound that is getting this treatment... Because...
2. CountryRound 3 HD Remastered is Coming
Alongside with the Original CountryRound making a Reboot, CountryRound 3 is getting a HD Remaster. Because of a certain Comipo Update from November 19th 2022 (where you can now save your comics in HD), Many of the CountryRound 3 comics are getting remaster with HD appearance, spelling and grammar fixing, and even a redesign for most characters.
For example, Here are the Main 4 redesign:
Ireland's Hair was created by Daiger1975.
Yup. They look quite different than how they originally designed to be. And this time, I did my research to take inspiration on how different people from different countries look throughout the redesign. And I really tried too.
Some characters will have some major changes, some will have some minors, and some... won't be changed at all.
Do keep in mind that these redesign are for the new comics. The old comics will still have the original design that the comic takes place in. So, no need to worry about it.
So far, only 4 Comics have been HDfied (which are A Norway Joke, Black Friday Lesson, Canada's Crush (Part 2), and France's Rival. The release of them will be announced soon. And also will be place as a PDF file rather than a PNG file. So, that's neat.
But yeah, CountryRound 3: HD Remastered is still in works. So, stay tuned on what to come next.
So other than that, yeah. It's good to be back again (but I won't be active every time). So, that's all for today. As for Daily Life of Musiko. I'll see on what I can do with that series. But, only time can tell on when it will be returning to its new form.
But honestly, yeah. That's all. I guess it's time for me to take my leave. I'll see you when I see you. This is Yellow the Plumber. Signing off.
Goodbye, DeviantArt...
As you can tell by the title, yes. This is official.
I am no longer going to be available or active around DeviantArt anymore. Don't worry! My account will still be open and still have all the contents that I'd made, but I won't post any more contents into DeviantArt.
Why are you leaving DeviantArt?
You see, I actually grew out of DeviantArt. Like, I actually lost interests or momentum on the website itself now. Ever since I had been like on Twitter "@nathbusia" or YouTube "Nathan The Hedgehog", and heck. Even discord: "..Flameout56..#1335", DeviantArt and Yellow the Plumber at it own is the lowest interest account that I ever owned throughout the social media. Like, I barely even check on how well Yellow The Plumber is going.
Not only because of the DeviantArt's newest layout which makes it harder for me to make newer contents each time, but also, I'm more focus on my life and other projects than the one that I regularly worked on.
What about your projects such as CountryRound and Daily Life of Musiko?
Those two? Well, it highly depends. The CountryRound series will still be kicking, but this time not in DeviantArt. Somewhere further where they can get the most love and new audiences such as Newgrounds.
Also, I am still working on CountryRound Legendary: Fire and Ice. Some preview of the game can be found on my Twitter. So, do check around if you're interested.
For Daily Life of Musiko however... Yeah, I had to double think about that. Unlike the CountryRound series, Daily Life of Musiko isn't doing so well... (well, for a Gacha Life/Club Comic.) But, I don't want to be those people who get treated badly because they use Gacha Club to make their things...
The History of Yellow the Plumber/Nanabusia63
Nanabusia63 was created around 2013, and didn't start it debut until May 27, 2014 (after the deactivation of Nathbusia, my alt account). Ever since then (when I was young during the time), I usually do thing such as put two pngs of characters on a realistic area, and call it a day.
Normally, I wouldn't call that art either since I was young and ignorant back then where I didn't know what copyrights or credits really was, and not knowing so well on how DeviantArt actually work.
After losing Nathbusia, Nanabusia63 became his successful alternative. From going through those pngs by imagination, to where I am now with the entire CountryRound things and more.
Back in Nathbusia, I usually make those Stickman Comics series. As you should had known, I was once going to make a sequel out of it. But, that had to be scrapped as CountryRound became the Stickman Comics series' replacement.
Nanabusia63 needed a avatar and a mascot, so that's where Yellow the Plumber came to be. He was a Yellow plumber with Yelllowish-Orange Overall. He was once a Yellow recoloured of Mario, then on Oct 28, 2017, He was no longer a plumber, but instead an actual boy. That's where Yellow got his current design from.
As things goes on with ComiPo for CountryRound 3, and Daily Life of Musiko, things has been quiet for Yellow. Like, I don't have any time for him anymore. I once used to have 59 watchers, then it went down to 58, then 57, and now 56. Comparing to my Twitter account and my YouTube account, my DeviantArt account is completely pathetic. Heck, I barely even get any views now then on newer contents.
So, that's the history of Nanabusia63 and Yellow the Plumber as a whole.
Where would you be off to now?
Me? Who knows! I can be anywhere. From Instagram, to Tumblr (which I never touched), or heck! Pivix for what so reasons. But my main focus is mainly Newgrounds. I'll be packing all of the newer CountryRounds contents and some of Daily Life of Musiko contents, and travel to Newgrounds. That where I will be. I will be known as: Nathan-The-Hedgehog in Newgrounds.
Well that settle it.
Well, guess this is it. This is the end of the road for the little Yellow the Plumber, and Nanabusia63. This is the very last content and post that I'll ever posted on DeviantArt.
Thanks you for your support throughout the years, and so on. It has been a blast, while it lasted...
Until next time, in the future when I see you again...
Goodbye, DeviantArt.
- Yellow the Plumber/Nanabusia63.
Spreading Love like a Floating Butterfly
Have a wonderful lovely day. I'll see if I'll be able to return on making comics. See ya soon!
P.S. Goah dangit, I missed CountryRound 4th Anniversary
This is the second time this happen. I really need to remember my memory of the Anniversary date. *sigh* 
Yellow Blogs - Where has I been?
Yeah, I made this short comic. This is just a little blog of me explaining why have I been absence from Deviantart.
You see, the reason why is simple:
It's because of college. Yes, I am in college now. All those college works got me less into my regular projects that I've worked my heart into. From Digital Media to English, I'll never might get a break someday. Heck, the more college work I get, the slower of my project will be worked on.
So, I'm sorry if I can't make another CountryRound 3 comics or even a part 2 of Daily Life of Musiko. You still forgive me, right?
Anywho, there's a second reason why I haven't been in Deviantart.
It's because I'm working on a brand new project. It's somewhat suppose to be thing about kungfu.
Here's a logo to give out a little hint:
I'm not sure what Genre this project will be (like comics, movies or even webseries).
I'll tell you more information as it develops.
That's it for me today. Catch ya later everyone - Yellow The Plumber
Comipo Plus Ideas and Features
We do have manga maker for people who can't draw nor can't design a character by hand. But, we do have two of them which let us do the manga making without drawing which is:
The main who started it all "Comipo: Manga Maker" and its newest alternative "KumaKuma Manga Editor". Now imagine this. What if is was Comipo's anniversary and they gave something very special that they have worked their heart and soul to make this perfect software. That why I'm typing this long explaining about a Improved and Brand new Comipo and the Ideas that I would like the see called. Comipo Plus/Comipo+.
This how a logo would look like. I tried to do the plus by myself. Its doesn't look good, but it's close enough. I made two version of it.
One version have it original colour like this:
And another with a Green colour alternative:
So, let's get to the ideas.
What is a Comipo Plus/Comipo+
So, Comipo Plus is like a normal Comipo, but with brand new features and a whole new way to make a comic that the original Comipo haven't done. Comipo Plus will be the Comipo that you've never seen before. If Comipo+ actually exist, it will makes my project "CountryRound 3" and your project 10 times better than it look like right now.
Now, I'm going to go through some features that it really recommended to Comipo such as Newer hairstyles, Eyelid styles, New colours for Eyes and Hair, UserTextured Clothes, Plugins, etc. So let's start with the most requested features for Comipo. Which is...
Custom Poses
Right now, KumaKuma Manga Editor got that solve out for Comipo. But I always wonder what if Comipo have it own. What would it look like? Well somebody did make the design of how would the custom poses would worked out. A guy name "Vandarque" have done an example. See it here:
What also make it special is that after you made that pose, you can save the pose and it will be saved on UserPoses (don't ask me what the file archive type will be, because I don't know either).
More custom for the body parts
Have you ever wanted to make a Elf character in Comipo without using .csu or .mqo files? Or even makes a ghost without legs? And let not forget about adding antenna for your characters. That when I thought that more body part custom would be actual radical for Comipo. For example, you can change the height of the character (without resizing the characters or squishing them) like to make them shorter, taller or even fatter. For males, you can give them some Bodybuilding with some strong flexes and muscles! While for Females, if you want to give your girl a makeup, now you can. With lipstick, eyeshadows, blush or no blush, more eyelashes, nail polish, etc. How about making your own cats or dogs design for pets at Comipo. Now that will be something. Here some example that I kind of done here for the Ears Idea.
The drawing might not be good, but I tried.
For the eyes, Hair and Clothes colours, if you can't find a suitable colours that fit for your character and you want new one, how about adding a colour wheel/picker So it changes colour that you wanted. For example, Let's say that you wanted to change the colour from this pupil:
Let's say we change it to yellow. The user can use the colour wheel/picker like this and put the cursor on the yellow like this:
Then, it will end up like this:
Pretty neat huh? That could also be for Hair and clothes too. Also for eyes, you can have eyes to be seperated colours like one eye red and other blue (Just like Professor Barranco 3 from the Rayman Series.) And speaking of Eyes, Hairs and Clothes...
UserClothes, UserEyes, UserExpression, UserHairs and UserTexture
This is what I need (and others needed) the most. I pretty much getting sick of tired of giving my characters the same clothes over and over again with different textures which suit the colour of their flags. Now, What if Users can add their very own clothes, eyes, expression, hairs and texture for Comipo? Then Comipo+ can actually do that. It will be somewhat similar to UserModels, but the User stuff will also be added to the Comipo's character creator (So you can use it from there.) Plus, Clothes, Hair and Eyes from MMD can also be use for Comipo+ which will give Comipo and MMD a good relationship. Also, you can add your own characters that isn't from Comipo such as Mario, Sonic or even Kirby. For expression (even though KumaKuma Manga Editor also handle that), Users can add their own expression by changing the character mouth, sticking out tounge or not, changing the pupil size from big to small, moving the pupil position by the same or seperated and make teeth visible or not visible. For teeth, I thought of 4 different teeth design which is:
1. Normal Teeth
2. Sharp Teeth
3. Vampire Fangs
4. One Pointy Tooth
Theres is also more like one missing tooth or a yellow teeth (which is kind of digusting) Here some ideas that I done for it:
With the Sharp Teeth though, I can actually now put in Bhutan in the comic. Anywho... Where was I? Oh yes.
For Texture, If you change a clothes texture from the official Comipo character, just right click and choose "Save Texture" which you can edit it. Once you done editing it, go to the same clothes that you edit the texture from and right click and choose "Change Textures". Then choose the texture from your UserTexture Files and then it will show your texture image (png, jpg or bmp) and then double click and that texture will be on that clothes. That how it will work out.
2 Characters in One Layer
For people who want their character to do some hugging and kissing and what so ever, then you might like this idea. Comipo+ can let you put two character to share one layer so you can do the hugging without one covering the other. For example:
Let's use these two character right here.
Then click on both of them.
After doing so, the User can now right click and choose "Put Model in One Layer"
and then KAZAM! Now both characters are in the same layers. Now Users can put them hugging together without the editing.
Okay, let's move on to something that would make Comipo 10 times more worth it.
Plugins
Yup. Plugins. The most important tools for any type of software. For Comipo to bypass that was a complete disappointment. This time, Comipo+ will include Plugins so you can make your Comic/Manga better than before. For example, if there was a Comipo Plugins that let you change the characters shading or lighting such as Cel shading or Metal shading to make trophies or and robots, and fluff and hair shading to make things a little more realistic. Lighting can also be for Comipo+ so you can make the character/object darker, lighter, realistic lighting or anything else that suit you best.
Comipo+ could also have one plugins where you can convert your character into an actual model file such as .obj .fbx or even .dae files. Then you can use them to animate without using Comipo like with SFM (Source Film Maker).
Plugins will be a hit for Comipo and then, that will get everyone attention. Their good friend "RPG Maker" have plugins, so why not Comipo?
Custom Themes
So far, we can change your themes to Blue, Green and Grey. But, what if we can put our own themes to Comipo so it can be more styling to our liking, or even change the colour to our very own like yellow or red.
Custom Themes doesn't really sound important to Comipo+, but it will be a nice detail and a good touch for it.
And last and not least...
Models Limit Counter
Now, this is something they literally miss out. Normally in Comipo, you can't put too many UserModels or else the Software will take time to load up the 3D Models to be all good and clear. But normally, not many newbies will know that Comipo have limitation or how many UserModels they can only kept for. So Comipo+ can have the Models Limit counter to show the user of how many free space for each model is left for.
For example. If the user doesn't have any User3DModels, then it would look like this:
If is was near full such as to (10 - 0) or fully full, then the text will be red and look like this:
This will help to remind the User that they only have certain amount of Models they can put in Comipo+. When is full and they still other in the UesrModel folder, then this error message will say this to the user:
Well I have the use the Windows XP style because it was nostalgic and it gives us the old times.
Anywho, that's basically all of my ideas for Comipo+. If you have extra more ideas for Comipo+, don't be shy and comment below of what other can be added to Comipo+. I have been dreaming for this to happen, but we just have to wait and see.
Thanks for reading. I hope you like my ideas and I'll see all you soon. Bye Bye! - Yellow The Plumber (Nanbusia63)
