As many of you may know, the Yenny Animated Series project has been on hold for the lack of funding to create the first test pilot. The series concept has been presented to several producers of the animation industry but a test pilot of the series is necessary to reach this goal. Black Maria will be in charge of creating this pilot and for that we created this fund raising page via kickstarter.com to do this the proper and legal way. Please check the webpage for the information. Let's finally make this real!

Yenny la Serie Animada

2011-08-10T14:32:00.000-07:00

Como muchos de ustedes sabrán, la Serie Animada de Yenny a estado en hiato por la falta de fondos para crear el episodio piloto. El concepto de la serie ha sido presentado a varias casas productoras de animación pero un episodio piloto es necesario para alcanzar ésta meta. Black Maria Animation estará a cargo de crear este episodio. Para esto hemos hecho ésta página para levantar los fondos necesarios y así poder producir éste primer capítulo de una manera adecuada y formal. Por favor, visiten la página para más detalles. ¡Hagamos este proyecto real por fin!

Dear, angry mob from Gocomics

2011-08-01T15:27:00.000-07:00

NOTE: I gave it some tought and I won't be stopping the strip at Gocomics. I'm dealing with the problem and the books will be shipped. PERIOD. I have a no refund policy which makes it MY responsability that YOU get your book one way or the other. That means that you WILL get it. I was granted moderator privileges at my strip and I'll be supervising the comments from now on. Readers don't have to suffer from other people's behavior. I have an email dalvarez@davealvarezstudio.com. Should you have any comments you may write to me personally and if your comment is about your book order, you already read what's happening so you'll have to wait until it arrives.

I recently read the written chaos at Gocomics regarding the long wait for the Yenny books.

When I originally started the Art book project, I was counting on a printing shop, that was going to print the necessary books as I ordered them. Unfortunately the print shop I chose had closed their shop before pre-orders of the book ended.

This left me having to look high and low for another printing shop that would finish the job. Complications of the search were from companies needing at LEAST 2,000 copies to be printed, but the amount of pre-sold Yenny books was less than 10 percent of that.

I've chosen a new print shop that would print the necessary copies, but they are charging a lot more to print. The higher amount charged for printing literally leaves me with little to no compensation for all of the time and effort I put on this book. Despite this, I'm still obligated to my promise and I'm still in the process of delivering books. I currently have a new batch and they will be shipped this week.
I have orders from China and Russia which paid US postage. Postage that I have to pay extra because of this mistake.
The first book batch was picked up by hand at Puerto Rico Comic Con.

Unfortunately, due to all these setbacks, Another printed "Yenny book" in the future would be very unlikely.
I will only have PDF downloads from now on.

Judging by Yenny's popularity, many people might think that I own a gigantic company but the truth is that this is a one man show.

Once again thanks for your patience.
-Dave

The long wait is over. As you can see on the picture, I finally have the proofread test of The Art of Yenny book. Copies will be sent out in a timely manner.
I apologize for all the inconveniences. This experience has proven to me that the printing media gets more difficult every day. Printing shops are sky-rocketing their prices without previous advice, making book publictions almost impossible.
Besides that, with stores like Borders claiming bankruptcy, market for books is so narrow that there's no way to recover a publishing investment.
So, people, I haven't lost your address. Be patience. It'll arrive soon.

Interview to Andrea Batista alias Cosplay Yenny

2010-03-03T19:59:00.000-08:00

1)So Ms. Batista, how long have you been a fan of Yenny and her comics?
Honestly, I just recently discovered Yenny this year! But that doesn’t mean I love her any less ;)

2) What made you want to cosplay Yenny for this comic convention?
Well, it was a convention dedicated to local comic books, and from all the comic books being presented at the con, Yenny was the one that stood out to me the most!

3) We all know Yenny’s usual attire. Didn’t you feel cold or too exposed?
I have to confess I did feel a little exposed. Kinda like a stripper walking into a Discovery Zone. Haha! But I got used to it after a while. People that know Yenny knew I was wearing exactly what she wears in her comic, so I felt better

4)That’s a lot of exposed skin. Is that a belly button ring?
Yep! Ive had it for a long time.

5)How old are you, Andrea?
I’m 22yo!

6)Do you do this cosplay thing in a professional way or just for fun?
Entirely for fun! I got into cosplay a couple years ago. I love dressing up as my favorite characters.

7)Do you have huge feet too? What size?
Im a size 9, not even close to Yennys feet, haha

8)Do you keep a diet or practice some kind of sports?
Oh god no, I cant diet to save my life. But I do like to keep active by dancing. Ive been dancing since I was 4

9)Do you exercise?
As I said dancing, and walking to class!

10) Do you do any professional acting or performances?
I love acting, and performing. I was in some drama competitions in highschool, and plenty dance recitals :P But not professionally!

11) You are very pretty. Are you a professional model?
Aww… I’m flattered! But no, I am not a professional model.

12) I have to ask. Yenny is hyper ticklish. Are you ticklish too? Where?
I am ridiculously ticklish. Anywhere from my belly area to my feet. The palms of my hands are oddly ticklish as well…

13) How many stares did you got at that convention?
Quite a few. Many from people that recognized Yenny, and I suppose many from people who were just wondering who the heck I was and why was i walking around in shortie shorts and a tube top thing. Haha!

14) Did people recognized you immediately or did they have trouble wondering who were you cosplaying?
A lot of people recognized me, mainly people who worked with local comics and-or had read it. Some people asked me straight up who I was! So I would just show them the comic book and theyd be like ‘oooooohhhhhhhh`’ ;p

15)What other characters have you cosplayed?
Ive also cosplayed as Jade from Mortal Kombat, Slave Princess Leia from Star Wars (return of the jedi) , and recently I did my own brunette version of Cammy from Street Fighter J

16) Andrea, have you met the previous girls who dressed up as Yenny?
Nope! I haven´t gotten the chance to.

17) Damn, is it my monitor or do you look very tall? How tall are you?
Im only 5'8! im not that tall!

18) I noticed that you went with an average short instead of cutoffs. And also you didn't make the flags on the back pockets. Are you planing to do that if you plan to cosplay Yenny again?
Definetly! Im planning on getting the pants just right for the next time. Althought I am planning on making Yenny´s Carizzio University uniform for the next con. We``ll see how that goes.

19) How many dates did you picked up at that Con? *LOL!
LOL, dates? none. I dont think cons is exactly the place to pick up dates, is it? hahaha

20) Choosing a character as Yenny for a cosplay is a bold decision. Did your friends pushed you to do it?
Not at all. Actually, my friends didnt even know who Yenny was. After I showed them, some of them just laughed. ``oh andrea...`` they would say. They probably thought it figures I would cosplay as someone like Yenny. We have a few things in common. Lol

21)When are you planing to cosplay Yenny again?
At this year´s PR Comic Con ! Hopefully, in Yenny`'s very cute university uniform! Pigtails, bows and everything. So keep on the lookout :)

The new format

2010-01-31T17:10:00.000-08:00

I'm glad that many of you like the new Yenny format for online reading. I know that the average 600 x 72 dpi size was barely unreadable but I was just following directions. *sigh*.

I created my own "curse" when I decided to draw Yenny in a very elaborate way. Now I understand why Ziggy looks so simple.

I hear tales from fellow cartoonists in which they brag about how it take them one or two days to deliver a week of their comic strips. I usually stay quiet and give a polite laugh but secretly inside I say "Damn! One single Yenny strips takes me a whole day to work!"

Needless to say Yenny's design is rather too complicated for a daily rush. Sometimes I slam my head against a wall because of it but at the end is rather rewarding.

I'm really glad that you dig it!

¡Bienvenidos!
