About the creator

DISCLAIMER ALERT:
This page is an official Gabital English translation project, requested and commissioned by the original author: https://boosty.to/art.duende.
All tips and donations to our boosty are processed and shared with the author.

Now, with that out of the way, I'd like to personally welcome you.
Hi there!
Gabital is a fantasy webcomic... which may or may not be (somewhat) educational in terms of economics. It's about capitalism woes in one particular settlement... We'd be glad to have you join our charming protagonist Gabi as she tries to navigate the realities of fantasy capitalism and its troubles and - hopefully - try to solve them... up to a point.
Feel free to look around! Or - my advice - head over to the Master-post for a nice starting point!
We're also uploading(albeit a bit slower) to other places, namely:

I am happy to report that buying an apartment for my wife and I has progressed.
.
But there is still more to do.. I must write our current landlord and ask about finding a person to replace me (in Germany, if you want to move out of your apartment, you typically need to give three whole months notice. But if you do the work of finding someone to replace you, then your landlord will maybe be nice and allow you to move early..)
.
All the problems are heightened because we don't know exactly when we become owners so we don't know exactly when we can start to move in to the new place.

When I hear things like this, Germany sounds very ordnung-y - but not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing in this particular case xD

I am excited for my wife to become my landlord.

My wife is Russian, says corruption is the norm there... Not sure about the busty elves, though.

Ralph S. (Assistant to the Emperor of Borgo), can attest to both!

does anyone have the home address for Chief? I got a new pair of boxing gloves and dome barbed wire that I'd like to test out

Darkened Shadow, Surely you're jesting...

does Hermes Conrad from Futurama run this worlds bureaucracy?

Darkened Shadow, Hardly! This system is way too lenient for that to have been the case!

The original Russian comic contains a speech bubble by Gabi in the final panel.

So we English viewers get an exclusive look at that beautiful stamper.

Darkened Shadow, Google Image Translate converted it to "Spoken". I imagine it was kinda of like "Okay.."

"Really wanted to post this on Halloween" Because taxes are spooky.

I find the hand writing font to require a good amount of effort to figure out.

Ralph S. (Assistant to the Emperor of Borgo), Will take that into account!

A quick update(no comic today)

Hey there everyone!!!
First off, let me apologize for the comic delay: this translator did get swamped with work for the last ~10 days, which also lead to slight health issues. I'm sorry to everyone awaiting Gabi's return to English space - this week we should be getting at least two pages and - hopefully - webtoon upload.
Blessed be the author for that halloween special though, as it was truly a localizator's dream! xD
Cheers, and have a nice week^^

You're doing great!

Gabi is really conservative with money: she keeps as expenses for the next day double the lumber they need and she splits 50% of their profits for the reserve. Of course, she knows their machines will break more than the metal ones, but still, she's good at not ending broke.
avatar
Ernest, She IS learning, after all^^ And probably thinking of this money as a fund for bulk ordering lumber next month
avatar
I don't know how far ahead the russian version is, but I'd honestly like to see them get a metal worker to work for them, making metal machine parts and even reinforced wheels. I'd honestly also like to see them also make more than wheels. that could be a way to explain diversifying, by making them also make machine parts from wood (as they have to make them by hand, so why not also sell them)
avatar
Darkened Shadow, Original is 11 strips ahead at the moment and - unfortunately - no metalworker... yet. There's been talks of expanding the staff though^^

My wife and I have submitted an application to the bank to get a mortgage for an apartment.
avatar
Ralph S. (Assistant to the Emperor of Borgo), Oof, the chains that bind current-age society!
 
While mortgage may differ greatly depending on your country and financial situation, I'd personally approach this positively and wish you well on the application! Considering where we're headed - actually owning a place is most likely going to become quite a privilege down the line, so... good luck and congrats^^
