"Stupid idea!" -> "Must do it!" That's how my brain works.
For some reason I decided to draw Mikkel's vision of the situation.
Why? I don't know why.

Wow, it looks useful, thank you! I always forget about a/an :-[

Please don't feel bad.  I read somewhere that the presence/absence of articles is one of the biggest differences between English and Russian, and therefore a major stumbling block for Russian speakers learning this language. 

Besides, you draw such wonderful things that we'd be happy to hear from you in a combination of mime and Trollspeak!

...BTW, what's the significance of Feb. 23?  Is it a WWII anniversary?

Because we needed it!  We wanted it!  It's hilarious!  The expressions and body language are perfect.
Sigrun's insane good cheer!  The way she grabs her little pet right-hand warrior Emil!  The way Emil grabs his secret crush battle-buddy Lalli, who clearly has no clue!  Tuuri's "BUT DAAAAD!" expression.  So great, all of them. 


How is it that Russians are all so artistic and creative?!?

Hey, I wouldn't call it stupid :D Quite the opposite, you provide Mikkel's sane POV here. Also, I just love your b&w sketchy style :)

...BTW, what's the significance of Feb. 23?  Is it a WWII anniversary?

It can be translated as a "Defender of the Fatherland day", initially the day of army since the early years of USSR. Traditionaly it is a day of the ones who are bound with military, no matter if they are male of female. Although lately it has become common to congratulate the men/guys/boys even if they have nothing to do with army (and this is somewhat criticized by some people). It is not an official day-off in Russia, but it has become one at where I live (and the rest of Ukraine refused to mention this day at all - politics, you see).

THIS IS SO PREFECT

Their expressions are amazing, and I really like the way you used crosshatching to colour in the dark areas! (especially on Sigrun's boots and gloves. Idk, it just looks really good). I also have to say that you captured their facial features amazingly well. Especially their noses! :D

he did say "halló"

Ah, I had forgotten about that instance. Lalli is quite doomed to obscurity. ;)

I like Lalli's reaction! it seems like he gonna to lie on the ground, while Sigrun will drag him and Emil on this suicidal mission  ;)

Haha is Emil grabbing on to Lalli's collar? (Like, that really won't support your weight!)

Eesh, seems that my information has been outdated for 13 years now  ;D Shame on me. And thanks for correction, I should have bothered googling it first.

I think we'll be seeing a lot of this situation in the many chapters to come.

Woah, thank you all guys. Actually, when people see my sketches, they always say something like "You should call a psychiatrist right now." You're all really kind to me :D

Psst, maybe we all here need special help, that's why nothing is wrong for us  ;)

Well, trying some wealthy potential buyers first does have its advantages. :P

This describes the situation perfectly xD I also think that you really captured their facial features.
