Apologies to those who have already seen this on LCAD's gag wall, to whom this might be almost as old and rancid as Frodo's breath.

Security post

Posting doodles for XTRA SECURITYS.

Playing ketchup...

It's within the realm of possibility that I won't return until I finish my film.  So Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year too!

Why not

Snow White vs. the Evil Scary Tree

Hump-day hijinks

Below: Baby's first Flash animation.

Why justify?

Prepare for nonsense!

All this dumping must be hurting the environment

Super Scary (oh brother!)

Mario (C) Nintendo.  But what the heck are these?

Die Walkitty

EDIT 3/10/11: Turnin' this in for a show!  Copious edits, and a vow never to ink a pic at 200 dpi again, ensue, in the hopes that I might get a prize for it.  People kept thinking the nondescript goblin below was a dog, so a dog now he be.

Attention Mike Nassar...

I accept your challenge to draw chubby dolphins.

EDIT, 2/11/11: I later realized that their noses were not nearly bottled enough, thus the very sharky-looking one at the top. I always miss something. Well, I'll try again, Mike...

Drawing myself off a cliff!

Mmm, not quite so bad as all that.  I loosened up tremendously while watching Ignacio sketch a few nights ago.  No stories come of it (though who knows? there's new characters in the bunch), but some fresh gags did.  Thanks, dude.

Here's one final sketch at full page size, taken to color and lighting.  I wonder if I would have saved myself a buttload of time by doing cleanup.  Why not test that on the next one-off (someday)?

It took forever to scan these and I've still got animation to do.  But, man, does it ever feel good to share.

Further deviations

For those who didn't see 'em yet.

Mastering the Force

An oldie but a goodie in the old, roundish, Spumcoish style. Enjoy...?

Other, cuter hijinks ensue on my shiny "new" DeviantArt page. The film pretty much takes up the rest of the time.

Last burst of sketchy decadence...

...before careening headlong into my senior film. But it'll be a pleasant careen. I think.

One thing I learned: Next time I make oaths that I'll have more stories in the can and amp up my draftsmanship to the maxxxxx, make sure nothin' else is on my plate first. The above doodles weren't exactly "on my plate," and I'm that much closer to not yet finishing my boards as a result.

BUT... do you like 'em?

Turtle Power, take two

And yes, he's still speaking Spanish, for reasons unknown.

I should try inking some of these. If I do, I'll replace these pencilly posts without notice.

The pen is mightier...

God knows why, but I am having a hell of a time comfortably doing a pencil sketch these days. The piece below, which was of course done over hastily in Photoshop, is all right.

These designs are better.

This graphite drawing is nice.

This pen sketch is much more interesting.

Here are some more designs I was able to concoct off the cuff with a gel pen, while with a Col-Erase I'd be drawing a bland spherical skull for two whole seconds and groping aimlessly for a pose afterwards. I didn't use to hate the process of drawing so much. What happened?

This kid looks like he's ready to party!
