Some announcements

Today, we have several announcements to make, some more important than others, depending on the situation!

1 – Weekly drawings paused

This is the most important announcement we have to make: the weekly drawings, published right here and on Instagram, are going on hiatus for an undetermined period of time, but which, in all likelihood, will not go beyond mid-November. The reason? There are two of us at Nimatek. One is very busy with her comic project, and the other is having an anxiety attack. Obviously, things couldn’t go on like this, so we had to take a break until things settled down.

2 – The sequel to Nuibie College starts from scratch (again)

The next iteration of “Nuibie College” (the latest, “La rentrée des crasses”, is currently available exclusively in French and for our fanzine) has seen its development restarted from scratch. Note that this is not the first time that this comic, whose development began in September 2023 (just after the completion of “La rentrée des crasses”), has been “restarted”, so much so that it is a recurring issue for Técé, from a storytelling point of view. The reasons for this are hard to explain (we’ll certainly talk about them one day), but the fact remains that it’s starting all over again, and putting off the English translation and free release of “La rentrée des crasses” all the more. We’re sorry about that.

3 – Nimatek.fr will change its formula

This website is about to undergo a major change. The fact that the weekly drawings are published for each drawing is beginning to seem too heavy. So, during the break in the weekly drawings, the “blog” section of the site will focus exclusively on our major news. The weekly drawings, on the other hand, will be confined to the “Galleries” section, and only that section. In any case, where the weekly drawings are most seen is on our Instagram page (which is why the weekly drawings are now in square format, more suited to this social network), so it won’t change much 😉

That’s it for the announcements. It was a rather long article, as we’d lost the habit of publishing, but you have to say what’s worth saying! 🙂

Big bug!

Bad news: our home server, on which all the drawings are stored, is no longer turning on. This compromises the publication of the weekly drawing on the Nimatek website, and, if we don’t manage to solve the problem tomorrow, it will also compromise the publication on Instagram! We’re doing everything we can to solve the problem as quickly as possible, because we like regularity!

Welcome to the English version of Nimatek.fr !

The English version of the Nimatek.fr website is finally ready for use, after a long period of conception work! A few minor defects may still be present, but everything is normally functional!

What is Nimatek?

Nimatek is a French fanzine created in 2021 after a long gestation period. But an internet activity was created in parallel, to spread our less recent creations more widely. So, while our fanzine is currently on issue 3, comics from the first two issues (One day like that on Nuibie and Nuibie College: Welcome to Nievicila!) are available on this blog, as well as on Mangadraft and Webtoon. The comic for issue 3 will be available on the Internet after the physical release of issue 4, and so on.

So, what am I going to find on this website?

On this website, you’ll already find the two comics mentioned above, which are furry comics accessible to all audiences. You’ll find a complete presentation of the universe of these comics on the “Nuibie College: Presentation” page. The comics and their presentation are available in full in English. But these comics are not the only content on this website. Artworks derived from these comics are also available, in the “Lore Nuibie” (canon drawings) and “Misc. Nuibie” (non-canon drawings and drawings by other artists) sections. Finally, artworks unrelated to the Nuibie universe are temporarily grouped together in the “Other drawings” section (other sections will be added later).

What’s the difference between “Nimatek” and “Nuibie”?

It’s true that the uninitiated might wonder why our site (and our fanzine) is called “Nimatek” and not “Nuibie”, given that every time, the comics bear the name “Nuibie something”. The reason is that Nimatek is a joint project between AdeA and Técé, its two creators, whereas Nuibie is Técé’s universe (although AdeA has helped him a little, notably in “One day like that on Nuibie”, where her contribution was major). For some time now, AdeA has been preparing her own comic with her own universe, which will have no connection with the “Nuibie” universe and comics, but which will also be published in the Nimatek fanzine and later on the Nimatek website. Although the AdeA’s comic doesn’t yet exist, some artworks of this future comic have already been published in the “Others drawings” collection!

Is Nimatek on social networks?

If you want to follow Nimatek on social networks, we’re mainly present on Instagram. We publish (with rare exceptions) one drawing per week. Like all our internet activities from now on, our Instagram is bilingual French/English.

Please note: our comics are not published on Instagram, and the artworks are cropped to Instagram’s square format. To see our comics and artworks in their original format, this website is essential.
