Thundersuck

Maybe I'll include a rat.


Listening to AC/DC and drawing tumbnails. Still no definitive idea for my poster. It's so frustrating not having any kind of theme to work off of. I want to watch Bender's Game again.

Acid: Do Not Throw In Face

Otherwise, you have to wear a silly mask the rest of your life.

Another poor sketch of the viglante/hero/anti-hero based on my handle: Mr. Popular. He fights crime and sometimes commits crimes; but only for money. He shoots people sometimes, but he's always sure to put a self-adhesive smiley face bandage on them afterwards.

Also:

I watched Gremlins for the first time. This movie terrified me as child. Today it's awesome.

David Cross is a Sheep-Fucker

That's just how David Cross Rolls. You've been Crossed. That's how it goes.


Working on the Rat City Rollergirls March poster. So far I've got "In like a lion, out like a lamb." Babe the adorable shepherdess and Her Highness, the lion. I realize to make her match up with the description from the book, Her Highness needs to be a 7-foot tall albino transsexual, who looks a little like Tilda Swinton. Babe needs some work too. The skirt is not turning out.

Anywhoo. Any thoughts from the internet?

Designers...

Make it work.

I am absolutely blank on what to do on this new poster. It's the March bout for the Rat City Rollergirls, and I'm not doing a St. Patrick's day theme. But they have no themes for their bouts this year. So I have this blank paper, and it is so intimidating. There's no Venn-diagram for creation.

I'm also hindered by not having any new music. The last album I got was Rob Zombie's Educated Horses. A fine album though it is, I'm feeling a little bored with it. No new comics of late either. I haven't left the house for non-work activities in more than a month and certainly haven't had time to hit the comic stop. Even when I've had time, there's been ice. (My arch nemesis.)


Anyway. Still haven't lit myself on fire and run screaming through the snow, so I've got that going for me.

Doc Holiday

He has the right to remain drunk and Val Kilmer.

Working from Tom Bancroft's book on character design while watching Tombstone.

Don't You Know?

Mayor fucking McCheese.

This one is pretty self-explanatory. Work finally settled down a bit. I may try another 24-hour comics day if my sleep schedule can get back on track. Early morning shifts this week were brutal.

Also, I figured out how to format it so you can click and enlarge pictures. Not for the old ones, but for all future posts.

Do You Like Apples?

Monkey-piloted Techno-Zombie.Haven't died in the snow yet. Shoveled a lot of snow to move my car. Not a fan of Justin Long or Shaiyeayeaye LeBuff. I want a good new Transformers and Indiana Jones movie!

Geysers of Gygax

She does 2D6 damage; +9 against ogres.Watched Bender's Game and Lion, Witch & the Wardrobe while working. Painstaking detail work on Project 1. I had to take a break and draw Queen Jadis with her battle outfit on. Really, how many chances do you have to draw 7-foot-tall magic albino; and when she's played by Tilda Swinton, how could I resist?

Android Hell is a Real Place

Drawing challenge: An android, with knives for hair and monster arms, shopping for reasonably priced produce.

What exactly was I going for with this one? Well, an interestingly built, but otherwise normal character thinking to himself. "Maybe they won't notice I have knives for hair. Or giant fucking monster-hands."

2DWG "Dirt Devil"

The box says: 'Sucktastic"

First comic for web comic idea I'm developing with a guy from my old job.

Snowed Inn

Sketch.Pretty bad, I know. But I just can't seem to think of anything. It's one of those days. Oppressive, claustrophobic feeling from all the snow.

Snoh

Guess who gets to leave an hour and a half early for work cause there's snow fucking everywhere?Hurried through this today cause I won't be home before midnight tonight. From as-yet untitled web comic project.

Agent Annarchy

I dunno.It's hard to accomplish anything some nights. Sketched something from Penny Arcade.

Back to Back

Terrible concept sketches. Deacon Blue & Garret Hobart. Go ahead, look them up. I dare you. I only half-chose the names. These are just the first concept sketches. Actual character shetches will be radically different.

2DWG

2 Dudes With Glasses.They solve mysteries and fight ninjas. Mysterious ninjas.

So yeah, much more rubber-y cartoonish versions of Deacon and Garret.

"Clearly, they're robot bones!"

Face Off

Webcomic concept sketches.Watching Dragnet while I work. I love Dragnet. I love the episodes about drugs. They're such dicks about it. They got a kid laid out on a slab in the morgue, Jack Webb is talking to his parents about how they're failures and going on, then turns right to the camera: "Maybe you should have talked to your kids about marijuana."

S.S. Chuy Bravo

It's a good ship.I didn't design it, I found a neat picture by joel27. Ailerons, elevators and flaps are all pretty useless in space flight, but they do look cool.

Crime-o-dile

Boom, secret escape hatch.Reading a book on drawing by Tom Bancroft. Pretty fun stuff.

I hate Xavier, Renegade Angel.

God's Wool Be Done

More Eve.

It's alright. She could be sadder. And there could be more robot shit.

Peace on Earth:

God's Wool Be Done.

Terrible Fanart

A lousy sketch of Eve, from AppleGeeks. After 2 fails, I just went with what I know. Sad girls with robot shit in their hair.

Love Machine

The Return of Awesomebot. Fully Colored!

Rokklor

Fuck yeah.Part of a web comic concept I'm working on. He has all the hallmark 80's rock characteristics. Bandanna on the head and arm, animal print suit, platform boots, spiked shoulder pads and gauntlets, bare chest and lots of hair.

You know Fritz is God

A little beefcake.

As Monkey God exists beyond the space-time continuum, Monkey God created the entire universe from a single act of monkey will. Just a little wisdom from Drinky Crow.

Surrealism is running high tonight. I admit, I don't know what that bull's expression is supposed to be. Maybe he's consoling her on the loss of her favorite bra. Casualty of a botched panty-raid. I was just reading some of Brandon Graham's awesome comics and felt like doing something sorta like that.

I really enjoy the freedom he has in coming up with this crazy shit. In future projects I'm not going to constrain myself so much to maintaining a level of realism in my story telling. If I ever have any.

Barstuck's

This idea isn't funny. Imagine being in line at a coffee shop when all the sudden your enourmous hampster-boobs start singing the hampster-dance song. It's not funny in the least. Each year, litterally dozens of women are too embarassed to leave the seclusion of their own homes because of singing magic boobanimals.

The Rumble Bee!

Float like a bee; sting like a bigger bee.I just love the name Rumble Bee. Also Grimrock.

Anatomically Incorrect

Soup asked for it...There are a million things wrong with this sketch. Not the least of which are the smiling hampster-boobs.

I've been very busy!

And I was finally home today. So, some mean green, and a magic boob-hampster.

Illustration is done!

It's doooone!

And it was lots of fun. Hulk and Iron Man were two of my favorite cartoons as a kid. I still love the Hulk's intro theme music. Iron Man's too, even though it is incredibly cheesy.

Iron Woman

Watch out! That bitch got a knife!
Not really. She has repulsor gauntlets. And an Iron rolling pin.

Sketching and sketching. Iron Man starts turning into a pretty lady. It's gotten to a point where every sketch starts turning into a robot or a pinup girl. In this case, a robot pinup-girl. Anyway, I got the super kewl Iron Man part of my drawing done.

Goddamnit, it's Thursday

Sleep, eat, work, poop, sleep.Anyway, been working on a commissioned sketch. Little practice piece I was toying with. Whatcha gonna do now Hulk? Gotta fight a giant Iron Man! Ha! Not really.

Back From The Dead, Assholes!

I ended up watching the Robot Chicken Star Wars Special again.

Of course, once I was at Adultswim.com again I ended up wasting time watching Code Geass again. And why?

Because:

Yes, playboy bunnies in giant robots.

Seriously, I had to draw one.

And I had to disconnect the cable box in the game room to play Call of Duty.

The Roof Is On Fire

Practicing using my stylus tablet.
I felt like inking this one. It was remarkably easy, only about 20-30 minutes. I'm not really sure what I want to do with the colors. Team colors include blue? I dunno.

I had both computers on today so I could work on one while playing Civ 4 with the other. It's a pretty great setup. Though, I need to erase a lot of junk from my old computer so it isn't so slow to respond.

Fuck You Stripey

Watching the Robot Chicken Star Wars special.

And the special features from Iron Man. Because I'm an Iron Man addict. Very cool stuff.

Anyway, the picture at hand. I can't remember why I started this. Oh yes, I wanted to know who Strawberry Shortcake's enemy was. She didn't have one. The cartoon is designed purely to sell merch.

Tossed Salad

Feel familiar?Yeah. I did it. I included the Veggie Tales in a parody of an Iron Maiden album cover. Whatcha gonna do about it?

Awesomebot

One of the most awesome ideas I ever came up with. I really like this one. I'm gonna ink and color this one. Maybe make it into something for something. Cause it's awesome. There's nothing in the picture for scale, but she could crush an entire city under one, cyclopian, metal foot.

I call her: Love Machine.

Another Cat, I Guess

What do you want?He's a sad cat with a silver dagger of revenge.

Monster Bus!

Get on the bus!This turned out just teribble. I had this great idea to fill the bus with movie monsters or cute monsters or something. I was watching Lucy, Daughter of the Devil and drawing the bus. And I got caught up in driving the bus.

Twisted Firestarter

Cause the robot size sketches are kinda weak for a post.And the interior of an airport I was working on didn't scan dark enough to post.

Fun with Robots

Terribly unproductive this evening.

So we got a light infantry support mech, a medium multi-role mech and a heavy main battle mech. (For those of you wondering.)

I spent a lot of time researching:
1.) giant robots
2.) mechanized warfare and organization of our armored cavalry regiments
3.) multi-ped tank design
4.) air force and navy SERE training
5.) shit I don't need to know, but it's interesting anyway

Really, I knew for sure I wasn't getting anythign done when I started watching the steaming-shitpile double feature: "Stealth" & "Iron Eagle II"
Contrary to what movies tell you, running for the border is a terrible idea. Because the first thing the enemy does is set up a picket line between you and the border.
Likewise, if disobeying orders doesn't get your flight clearance revoked, stealing/"losing" a 20-30 million dollar aircraft will. Ha ha ha ha ha, they would spend the next half a century in a military stockade for this bullshit!

Stuffed Beasts

Stuffed animals.Bunny Doggy & Kitty boom-boom. They will devour your soul.

Bunnies Love Robots

Or something.

I caught a stupid anime last night. It featured a girl in a playboy bunny costume piloting a giant robot. Which, out of context, is absolutely awesome. But in practice was absolutely unbearable.

Anywhoo, good practice drawing giant robot components.

Raining Sadness

I forgot how to draw sad girls in the rain.Maybe she's sad because she has a really big head.
