umm... whatever





More of that pig-like thing.

Yeah, so this didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. It's not the worst piece of crap I've ever drawn though, and at least it's something.

Been having trouble trying to draw (when I can find time, that is).

WHAT?... I have a BLOG??





I'm still around. And I'm not done with that pig/opossum thing I was drawing yet.
Here's a closer look at the Katamari illo.

Walk Cycle No. 2





A day late, a dollar short... whatever.
i'm done with the whole "schedule" thing. I'm gonna go back to updating when I feel like it. You guys don't care, right? I wasn't doing very well with it anyway.

So these walk cycle things are just my practicing with brushwork and depicting movement. They don't have anything to do with anything other than that. For the most part I like how this one turned out. For the most part. Can anyone else see the big boo-boo I made in the sequence?

I Suck At Art





I use the international cartoon symbol for crap quite liberally in this strip. This is what they call an iconic representation of crap. If you're crap really looks like this then I think you've got problems, my friend. Note also the international cartoon symbols for stink and flies.

Back to drawing in the ol' sketchbook (the last two were on bristol board). I inked this one the quickest so far, hence the "sketchier" look. Well, this is a sketch-blog.

Also, I think I told everyone who reads this already but in case you missed it; I posted a new comic at the site proper yesterday. This one came directly out of a blog post from a few weeks ago.

fall





I inked this one a bit quicker than the last. I don't know if you can tell.

I'm a bit distracted today anyway. We lost one of our cats (as in we can't find him).



**EDIT 4-8-06**
You'll be glad to know, I'm sure, that we found the cat.

Trip





I'm taking a break from trying to do comics that make sense here, and also trying out my inking again.
The best I can say about this right now is that I didn't use any white-out whatsoever on it. That flying clod of grass on the far right began it's life as an ink smudge.

I need more practice with the brush.

Who Am I To Judge?: Late Bloomer

So, I promised some more book reports a while back.

Here I am to deliver.





Just what you were waiting for, right?

One Night





Vaguely ideogrammatic, this one is screaming for a vector-art treatment.

Kinda' Chris Ware-ish again, or maybe Richard McGuire. Have you read his story, ctrl, in that McSweeny's book? You should.

Rachelle laughed at this comic.

Old Friends





Notice the extra strip at the bottom of this one, a la Tony Millionaire (or George Herriman, if you will). Am I getting fancy, or what?

Click on these colored words for the Comixpedia article. It's another look at the use of music in webcomics. Sort of a companion piece to this article I wrote for The Webcomics Examiner.

I can't help but think I'm not being comepletely fair to Mike in this comic. It's not as if I don't like him or anything. I'm not sure we can be the friends we were before but that doesn't mean we can't still be friends. And Mike, if you're reading, I'd like to hear your side of the meeting as well.

Bad Day




I drew this yesterday but didn't get to put it up until today.
