WHAT did you just say?

It usually happens at about twenty past or twenty to the hour, or so I'm told.

But that's not what it's for.

When I started this blog, I specifically told my self that it would be only for art purposes. I'm a selfish bastard, it's my blog, so it's gonna be my stuff that goes on here. My writing, my drawings, my animation. And with a very few exceptions, I've stuck to that.

But today, I break my rule. And it sort of IS animation related, because it has to do with a friend I made back in animation school. I fell out of touch with him quite a while ago, and we haven't communicated in some time.

But Blair, if you're reading this, I have something I need to tell you:



I just hope to hell that you're attached to this somehow.

Edit: dammit, blogger is cutting off the edge. Well, click on it, and it'll go to youtube where you can see it properly.

Ahh, Love

Their parents will never understand.

I wanted to have a giant,
But a giant's been done and done.
So I tried to be hip and defiant,
Dunno if I fooled any one.

Enjoying "the Hero of Ages".

Here's a koloss.

Detective Snow is :

a) Beginning to think that he is being "Set Up", and that The Chief may be "On the Take".

b) Beginning to think that there may have been "Something" to his ex-partner's "Wild Theories" after all.

c) Beginning to think that that it was a "Bad Idea" to use his belt rather than the provided holster to store his "Firearm", as it has slipped down the leg of his pants and he currently unable to recall if the "Safety" is "On".

Say, did you ever?

What a swell party this is.


I have contrasted a bulkier figure with a relatively dainty pose. Such a thing has NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE!!! I yam so smirt.






These three drawings are from a story idea I have about Insanity, the Occult and Saturday morning cartoons. Chaos Star and Character of Aratron sold separately.


I'd never drawn Solomon Grundy before. Turns out, it's basically the Hulk with a different color scheme and slightly less rage. Try to ignore the hand and foot things happening.


Pow-pow-power Girl Power Makes it Go! Never drew her before, either. Tried to make her a bit more hero-y and bit less prostitute-y than we normally seem to see her these days.


Wizards are the Pimps of the fantasy genre. I think this is why we nerds like it so much; in that world, the guys who study the most get to be the Baddest in the Realm. Of course, even in that world, the barbarians always show up and give us noogies. We can't win.


In retrospect, should have spent more time on the actual drawing, less on the robe pattern.


The caption is a bit illegible, it says "When Gropmar is happy, he shimmers." Yeah, I don't know.


Sometimes it's fun to just start drawing shapes and see what happens to them. Granted, this thing would probably collapse under it's own weight, but so might you some day. Don't judge.


If I did some research on modern clothing and hairstyles, I would be able to draw stuff that didn't look like the Jetsons. On the other hand, I also believe that modern clothing and hairstyles should by all rights look a lot MORE like the Jetsons. Who will budge first, hmmm?


BAM!


This isn't a particularly good drawing, and there are only five people other than me who would know what it's a drawing of. Enjoy!


A caricature. Don't bother trying to figure out who it is, I've already forgotten.


Blind Dead McJones. He got da blues so bad, he don't even have guitar strings.


Make a hawk a dove! Stop a war with love! Make a liar tell the trooooth! Tried Frank Miller's nose piece thing, then regretted it.

What a Swell-egant, elegant Paaarty, this IIIIIS!

Eventually I'll Scan Some More Stuff In

...but until then, I'll just post this thing. I've already posted it elsewhere on the webber-net, and normally I try to avoid double parking, but my ennui is starting to catch up with my paranoia, with the predictable result of me failing to contribute a rodent's hind-quarters.

Glorious Insights into the Human Condition

The following scraps and sketches were made on my own free time, and NOT during some of the many hours I've spent sitting on the phone at my new job, on hold. It's very difficult to draw with a handset jammed up into your neck anyway, and I would recommend against it if I had ever done such a thing, which I have NOT. They are in no particular order.


I've read that in ancient times, warriors would often battle in the altogether. I imagine such a practice would make shield placement fairly vital.


My wee daughter. This is the face she makes when she's trying to wheedle some potato chips or extra minutes past bedtime.


I've recently started playing D and D, and found that I enjoy it quite a bit. I'm aware that only people who play D and D are interested in hearing about D and D, but I thought it was worth pointing out that an "Owl bear" is a pretty darn funny idea for a monster. I've been trying to figure out what noise it would make, and the best I've come up with is saying "whoo" in a growly Doctor Claw style voice. Try it, it's fun.


Another D and D inspired drawing. To avoid lengthy explanation, I'll merely say that in-party drama can sometimes end up with nosebleeds.


They do this. They make you sit and sit, and without warning, they hang up. Then Hulk smash.


I wanted to come up with a love interest/foil for Bee-bar. This is a very ruff Blue Betty. When I come up with a name that's less derivative, you'll be the first to know.


He's got a 1D8 mace! HAR! Did I mention I've been playing D and D?


More fat means more jolly. I hope everyone had a great holiday.

Midnight Monkey

Really, it does make sense.
