After Africa, being dead was the easiest way to stay alive

No pr0n for blogwatchers today, just random sketches run up while watching the horrendously smug Fairly legal.

Oh Manga Studio - I'm sure you're great, but intuitive? Not so much.
Pretty sure I'm supposed to be learning how to use that anyway... Hm.

and bring me the diaper I wear to bed after I've been eating Indian food


If I organized my time better, I'd likely have more room for masturbation and Mass Effect 2, as I'm quite interested in finding out which is ultimately the more hollow experience. As it is, I'm still struggling to put the time aside here and there.
Especially bad bit of organisation today - very little done and I'm right on top of the ass-tapping scene, or as Lee's script describes it: "Panel 6: Balls deep now, Alan's face is contorted like he's just drunk a shot of vinegar."
I should try not to put pr0n on the blog, though, so I'll power through drawing the sex scene in one sitting and hope my wrist goes the distance.

Why do you hate Mondays, Garfield? You don't even work

Back again from my posting hiatus - the weekends being when I chase the boredom necessary for coming up with ideas I'll never get around to implementing - to post more of the same bland visual clutter that makes no sense out of context.



Still, I do seem to be picking up a bit of steam rather than slamming into another block, so can't complain.

Ah don't know no langidges


Day two on a page but I still hold out hope for meeting that page a day rate as it's a double-page spread and a bit of a bugger to move about in Photoshop once files go over the 15mb mark.
I'm working on my inking at the moment so things are slowing down a little as I try to balance between scribbling the hell out of a page and leaving lots of open space for the colourist to add textures and really go to work should they so be inclined, but I'm coming down heavily in favor of the 'scribble the hell' side of things so far as it feels like I have more control of the page than I did when I was trying to play it safe.

Weekend tomorrow, so lots of tv and film to catch up on while I lay out some pages.
Do try and have a good one - if you did I'd consider it a personal favor.

TTFN!

Dance go rush to the speaker that booms I'm killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom


I only just noticed this comic I'm drawing at a torturously slow pace does not have enough bears.
In that respect, it is slightly autobiographical.

In the good news/bad news category, Mike Judge's new project is announced (good news) now that King of the Hill is definately not coming back (bad news).

if what you say is true, the Shaolin and the Wu Tang could be dangerous


Christ, but some darn pages just will not go in. Birthing them from my man-uterus of the mind is a terrible thing to have to go through when The Block is in place, and if you have ever endeavored with any creative project you have at some point encountered The Block (AKA "The Wall") and don't need telling that it is a son of a bitch to work through. Got good reason, I suppose, but it's still frustrating to be hitting it again.

I need me some of that hippin' and hoppin' from the Time Capsule.

A dead man's the only man you can trust - rule number one



Man, one frigging thing after another this last week.

Still, I'm finally back in the groove - at half twelve on a weeknight and I'm off to me bed shortly. Hey, I get there in the end...
