GOLDEN APPLE AFTERMATH

Thanks to everyone who visited our booth. Much fun was had!

If all that wasn't cool enough, Golden Apple Comics said they want us to come back! They want us to have a booth on a Sunday morning/afternoon once a month. Score!!

LYFE IN 2010

I've been working almost EVERY NIGHT lately! I'm so busy being tired from work and social with friends that drawing has been a little on the backburner lately. But I am forcing myself to come back online for a moment and share my latest stuff with you nice people!

Scribble and Skarfy appear in a poster you might hang in a guidance counselor's office. Rub their bellies for good fortune!

BIG NEWS!

I'm having a really great time drawing Scribble and Skarfy lately, but I think that simple one-piece drawings (like the one above) aren't enough for them. So I've decided that I'm honestly and truthfully going to start doing Hipstergirls webcomics. Yay!!

I've come up with a little over a dozen ideas for strips so far, and I'm getting more all the time. It'll be a while before the comics debut, but trust me when I say that you won't wanna miss 'em!

Remember the girls' new friend Jen that I talked about in the last post? Well since then I've given her a bit of a visual overhaul, just like I was planning to. Lots of minor changes, but they all add up to a character design that I'm now much more satisfied with.

Below is a SUPER quick crapdoodle of all three girls, just for height comparisons.

Here's something funny-
I was looking through my files and found a Jo the Faux comic I made for Ben in April 2009 that I completely forgot to ever post up here. Oh well, 10 months late is better than nothing. Yes, that is Ben and me as his characters in the last panel!

Lastly, here's my awesome pals Mariella and Rev. Alex Italics! All these years and I finally get around to drawing them together. Took me long enough!

CARTOONS for $CASH$!!

I'm actively taking art commissions again!
Want a drawing of one of my characters?
How about one of your characters?
Cute girls, wacky forest animals, caricatures?

WICKED LITTLE CRITTA

Yes, the title of this post is named after a They Might Be Giants song. But this post is about the CRITTERS I've been drawing lately! Here's a commission for my good pal and Mr. Head Cooker himself, Casey, as a present for his lovely wife (and also awesome budzone of mine) JESS!
Aw, you crazy kids!

JO THE FAUX ALERT!!

Yep, all the gossip and truckloads (yes, TRUCKloads) of online rumors are true: the very talented and magical Ben Forbes has asked me to be his partner-in-crime for his upcoming webcomic, Jo the Faux-Fur Mink.

I'll be writing mostly and helping with some minor artistic aspects of the comic as well as generally getting in the way and making a big mess. I've drawn Jo quite a few times but this (below) is something from last night featuring her and another character from the comics. Just for practicing purposes, trying to get the characters down.

That's all I can share at the moment! Just get ready for fun!!

Oh look, here's a commission I did for my lovely friend Anne! She likes turtles, hehe.


Finally, well since today I'm just giving away surprises by the truckload (yes, TRUCKload), I guess I'll also briefly mention that I'm in the middle of working on some upcoming projects with some VERY awesome people. They are awesome people, who also happen to be slightly... dumm?

...Okay there's NO WAY that that hint could even be considered subtle, but I digress, that's all I can tell for now. Let's just say that if you're a fan of anyone on my links lists to the right-hand side of this blog, then you're not gonna wanna miss this!!! Stay tuned...
