CREATiNG OiNK!

Through writing this blog I’ve gotten to know some of the team behind OiNK and they’ve been very generous with their time. Everyone has been so enthusiastic to talk about their time on the comic and their insights have added so much to the real time read through. They have much more to share so I’ve created this section specifically for more in-depth behind-the-sty glimpses into working for Uncle Pigg.
