Waaaarriors...

...Come out and plaaaaaay!Three things you need to be a warrior:
1.) Big hair.
2.) Good running shoes.
And most importantly,
3.) Vest with no shit underneath.

Buffering...

Even when it plugs right into your skull...She is gonna play the shit out of Mine Sweeper.
I'm really happy with how this turned out. It was just gonna be another throw-away study of interior stuff, but I like it now. Of course, now there's incontrovertible proof that I've drawn sad girls with robot shit in their hair.

Mr. Popular

A gun-toting vigilante. I came up with the smiley-armor one night at work. I really need to go back over this and draw it right though.

Indoor/Outdoor Multipurpose

Drawing structures today. Mainly cause I never do and I desperately need practice. Just things. Things that are possibly large, or small, or inside or outside. How much fun can you have drawing a picture?

Ladies of the Wehrmacht

Why the fuck not?Why not indeed?
Anywhoo, went with a WWI Prussian uniform. But a modern shotgun. And some Vitoria's Secret panties. You can't see them cause of the breeches, but I assure you, they're in there. I really have no reason or explanation for where this came from. I just thought it was an interesting alternate history idea.

Randomness

Bill Cosby released an album called wonderfullness. I prefer to make randomness. I don't know what the satellite girl is doing. Exploring; maybe going on a journey. I can't decipher what the fuck Walker writes on these little Cards. The second picture is inspired by the terrible film noir, Kiss Me Deadly. An awesome title to a slow & confusing movie.
Well, Cosbyness is next to Godliness.

Jack In: Bright Young Things pg2

Page 2. A mysterious woman enters the scene! Once these are done I'm going to pour black ink into them. Make them all dark and scary. But not this page, this page will serve as counter point. Bright and cheery in defiance of the rest of the story's mood. The plan (and I hope I can remember the plan) is to wash out all the flashback scenes in white and shrowd the current scenes in black.

Shark Attack!

My nightmares; my greatest inspirations. I hate sharks, but that doesn't stop me from appreciating the beauty in nature's most perfect killing machine. And needlessly turning it into a robot. I find myself drawing these things.

Samurai Girl

Looking back through my recent posts I realized: I forgot how to draw eyes. Anywhoo, I wanted to draw a samurai girl. But thinking about it, I didn't want to draw a video-game hoochie. But at the same time I was bored with the prospect of drawing flowing robes and stuff. So I threw out some baggy pants and body armor. Really, the only thing that qualifies her for samurai status is the sword. Maybe she brings honor to the battlefield. I dunno.

She has red hair.

Afro Samurai

Was pretty cool. Not something I'd watch again and again, but I'm happy I finally got to see it.
I'm really more interested in Jinno and his awesome teddy-bear hyperberic chamber.
I haven't done any samurai-related efforts in a while. I enjoy feudal Japan. Who knows, maybe I'll do a lone warrior wandering the world story. Or just chicks with swords. Either way.

Beasts!

No, I have nothing to do with the book. But I drew some animal-ish things. Fat crocodile, happy dinosaur, tiger-corn? And not all pokemon can be cute and cuddly.

Investigator

1920's style investigator. Nothing special. I just saw an idea on JollyJack's dev art.

Wintyr Thompson

Playing Call of Cthulhu this weekend; it was a triumph. I had to come home and watch the "Still Alive" video from Portal. I outlived all my fellow investigators. My harrowing escape involved pushing down old people and climbing over mothers clutching their babies, but everyone else went insane, fainted and died in a fire. It was awesome. And I got cake.

Anywhoo, I did a sketch of my latest character. She's considderably superior to my previous attempt. The last guy I made was good at hiding and listening... He went insane listening to his friends die while he hid. Then a monster ate him. Winter Thompson, despite appearances, is a top-notch sprinter and has extra sanity points. Turns out, running and dicking people over are far more important than what I had previously assumed were good survival skills. Also making another guy to be a middle-weight prize fighter for a 1920's game.

Re: Jack In

Page 1 of Jack In: Bright Young Things.
Starting a new weekly drawing challenge: Get a page of something done each week. Eh, I know the title sucks, but what ya gonna do?

I'm working on a story of betrayal and revenge; and science. Our story opens with Mehari returning to a city from her past in search of someone she once loved.

Jee Wiz

Drawing more stuff off Stephen Silver's blog.None of my friends have mustaches.

Oh yeah, how does the new blog banner look? I stayed up all night watching a horrible sci-fi movie while I matched the color. Turns out it was 0099CC all along.

Projёkt Яuйway

My totally straight roommate suckered me into watching 3 hours of project runway with him yesterday. I used the time to eat some steak, change the oil in my car and stare at a naked woman's vagina.

Anyway, I did a speed sketch of one of the designer girls.

Kat & the Burrito

First the Burrito:
He's joyful, secret agent Burrito.
And sketch I'm working on for Kat E Kism.
Devilishly good fun.

My Work Area

Is never really this clean. I just cleaned it off so I could lay those papers out on it. If only I had the spunk or gumption to actually finish that comic. It started out so well and just turned into a horrible endless morass. But that's what I get for not planning things out ahead of time and then letting them go for weeks on end.

Things on my drafting table: 8 semi-finished pages of Jack In, Lobster Ladd mini-comic, Jet City Rollergirls program I designed, a blank prototype mini-comic I made, Justice League Magnificent 7 comic, and a copy of William Gibson's Spook Country.

Mr. Slick

Liquid metal powers would be a cool super-hero power. Unfortunately this picture turned out horrible. But it's just a sketch.

Not A Giant Robot

Just a fairly large robot. Dunno. Watching Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex

The Red Legion

Eric and I were discussing super powers. Eric's was simple: multiply himself many times over and have an unlimited supply of guns. Making himself: The Red Legion.

Random stuff

For Saturday. Things that come out of my head.

Balloon Head

How do you make someone a were-hot-air-balloon? Does the balloon bite you? Can it be popped by a silver ninja-star? There's a system at work here I don't fully understand.

Styx: This Truly Is Hell

He's some sort of demon-pirate guitar hero. All the best bands are affiliated with Satan.

Q. Are You Drunk?

A. Not as high as I am. Great response to that age-old question, even for a drunken super-heroine. I had a whole slough of funny things she could yell out.
"Hey! We all wear our underwear on the outside!" " I don't tell you how to dress at your job!" "Your mom's a super villain!"

Krill!

Last anthropomorphised animal for a while. Lifted from Stephen Silver's sketch dump.

Badbar: Horton Hears Punk Bitch

Armored cyber-elephant. I drew him one, then decided it didn't have enough shit and added more wires and such.

Claude Steele: Ferret

Claude Steele:
American Psychologist
Side-burn/Moustache Enthusiast
Ferret
Throwing the Claude Steele card away.
Claude Steele? Seriously? That's such a made-up name, like Max Power or Rockafeller Einstein.

Surprised Girl

Terrible drawing. I just wanted to remember the outfit this girl was wearing. This is what I get for not blocking out my idea before hand. Off balance, weird angles of things. Anyway, she had nice tits.

Jinx

From Teen Titans, with her hair down. Really, this has nothing to do with Jinx other than I started out drawing her. I guess the dress is kinda her.

Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space

Melody wasn't quick enough on the draw. Josie must suffer through all the pains of "birth."I apologise to all my African-American readers for my depiction of Valerie Brown. She started out with an "Aw hell no!" expression, but it turned into more of an "Oh lordy-lordy! I don't know nothing bout no xenomorphs!" Though I will not apologize for immediately thinking of putting in a word bubble with "Don't go in there!" next to her head.

Oh yeah, this was a real show:
With their giant phallic rocket ship.
