Servers: Part 2 – The Hackers (again) | Behind the Scenes

Read the comic here! A remake of a remake. Strange, I know. There have been three other variations of Part 2, each I am not particularly proud of until now. The first Part 2 was from old Servers, made way back in 2006. The second Part 2 was during a remake resurgence, but I felt […]

Source Filmmaker (Part 3)

Since Part 2 of this adventure, I spent my entire Summer learning a tiny bit more about Source Filmmaker. I began keeping a notepad for my random SFM ideas and super duper secret plot stuff for my Servers webcomic. There are plenty of new, exciting, and hilarious stuff I would like to make and I […]

The Easter Eggs and Cameos in my work

I love easter eggs. There’s a joy in the discovery of something that seems out of place in an otherwise normal setting, much like finding a white and red striped jacket-wearing person in a crowd of people and/or props. Making a picture and comic are both long boring processes. To keep focused, I try to […]

Source Filmmaker (part 2)

It has finally been a year since I begun using Source Filmmaker for realsies. Throughout the year of learning SFM, I got a stronger grasp on particle effects, lightning, and scene composition. The SFM subreddit’s Discord has been incredibly helpful. Out of several other SFM communities, they’ve been up-to-date on the latest techniques and provide […]

Tales of the Bravos: Bravo 2’s Story | Behind the Scenes

Read the comic here! In typical fashion, I am super late to providing this behind the scenes on this webcomic. Anyways… As part of Servers: Part 7 – Tales of the Bravos, Bravo 2’s story delves into his personality, relation to the antagonist faction Hackers Elite Union, and how it will affect future stories. At […]

Representation and Diversity

If you probably haven’t guessed by that handsome avatar all around this blog, I am Cambodian-American. No, not Indian. Not Mexican. Not Arab. Cambodian. Trust me, I had to explain it all the time. Diversity has always been important to me. Growing up watching TV shows and movies, listening to music artists, and reading comic […]

Perspective

The last bastion of Garry’s Mod comics had gone out like a candle. When I want to put myself into perspective, I re-read Mythos’ reasoning for ending the Gmod comic-centered site and how parts of its old community members came together for one last hurrah. At this point, I am officially the last veteran comic […]

Constructing each protagonist in Servers

Posted in Tumblr on June 10, 2017. We all have our reasons to fight, to keep living, and to pursue our own goals. For the Bravos, it’s no different. Many of their self-interests are mainly inspired from what I experienced in my life. These interests clash into what makes the Bravo team into a group […]

Making comics

Posted in Tumblr on June 18, 2016. Some parts of this blog will be different if you’re not into Garry’s Mod comics but you’re interested in learning the process. It doesn’t necessarily need to be about Garry’s Mod comics at all. Writing An idea usually pops in my head when I want to think of […]

Constructing the Servers world

Posted in Tumblr on May 30, 2017. Edited some parts in June 24, 2019. For 13 years, Servers’ world has been built up from a simplistic story about three people in a training camp, to a multi-virtual world of gamers. That world became larger with Team Fortress 2 Originals and We ‘R’ Mercs joining the ranks […]
