I meant to comment on this. Like Poppa said, very asian inspired. I love pieces like this. Welcome indeed.

Just a tip, avoid the fill tool like the devil, it leaves behind those white dots that are a bitch to fill in. Try layers instead, they make your work so much cleaner and nicer. You'll find the layers on the left of the screen. Bottom layer is background and upper layers foreground like Shi or BBS.

Haha, cute. Does he ever quit yapping?

No, and this is a problem for Barky. Barky is generally a happy dog and his disposition is good most of the time in spite of Yappy's constant yapping. But I think even Barky has his limits. We'll see,

I don't think anyone wants to be Yappy. We all like Yappy to be something drawn in silent form so we can laugh in safety at the funny Yappy. But the moment this becomes an audible animation we're all going to drop Barky's arse and his Yappy comrade.

Anyways, since text is usually in itself mostly silent, I'll be Yappy.
YAP! YAP!
