I created a phonological chart for my language:

27 consonants, and 10 vowels, quite a large phonemic inventory.
NOTES:
It should be noted that Place of Articulation (POA) is the top or x-axis of the chart, and Manner of Articulation (MOA) is at the side or y-axis. so when you make the "p" sound in "pin" you are making a voiceless bilabial plosive, this means your vocalcords are moving, compare an /f/ to a /v/, you feel vibration with /v/ and none with /f/, /f/ is voiceless, /v/ is voiced, but they are both labio(involving the lips)-dental(involving the teeth) fricatives.
Also /j/ makes the "y" in "yes", seems counterintuitive... but then Jagermeister.
learning IPA is good my friends, it can help you learn any language...

"Turning iron ore into iron swords is a hard process, for one must first dig out the rock, and melt it to refine it, then one must pour that metal into a mould, let it cool a bit, and pound on it while it cools even further. Games are no different." - Ahzoh
