I'm a big webcomics geek, so maybe I'm the only one who thinks this is cool:

Scott Kurtz doing his big Wedding comic strip of pvponline, live, right now.

If he looks huge for 2.5 months old, it's because he is. Our little lead-y bear weighs in at 14 lbs.

And yes, I have more onesies planned.

CapulonEscort

A sketch I drew yesterday while watching TV. It was intended to be an escort-droid for Capulon noblemen. There are precisely three people in the world that have any idea what the hell I'm talking about, since it refers to a long-dead project.

The intent was to make something vaguely ungulate, elegant, and light... something inhumanoid that could stand at a man's height without weighing ten times as much as him. I didn't plan on it while drawing, but in the end the forehooves lack the long carpals that ungulates have, so the front legs are more like a dog in structure. Either way, I'm happy with it.

Was just sketching again recently - haven't really doodled much since leaving school. It was an attempt to make a very cute but very heavy soldier. Came out looking like something between a Bratz doll and a WarHammer 40K space marine. I guess mentally I'm still in middle school, eh? 24 going on 12.

Well, I thought I'd do something productive with my evening so I took the last few nights and coloured this old doodle of mine up in photoshop. Pretty primitive colouring - just simple flat shades and dodge+burn layers. Ends up kinda looking like Flash art. I'm happy with it either way.
Heh, sorry about the first upload. I didn't realise it would be so freakishly messed up. Note: most sites that resize pngs screw up the alpha channels. Sorry about smashing everybody's "friends" page with that humongous image.

Just a random doodle from the bus. Inspired by a girl with really wild hair and typical T.O. yuppie garb.

Not much to write today. Am really damn sleepy. This country is too friggin cold.

Today's odd sights:
Navy blue Dodge coupe with speed-holes, license plate “hemi-16”, and large faded blue hotwheels logo.
Asian-Christian statuary at the local Korean Catholic church (not really wierd, but I'd never seen it before).

After hearing an American on the bus saying he was voting for George because his pharma stocks were going down (“the other guy's an extremist who's gonna make 'em give 'em away”) I got an idea. Forget platform, issues, personal attacks - just change your name to “Doesn't fucking matter, Don't give a fuck”. Just tell people its pronounced “Mike”. You'd have the election in the bag with that phrase on the ballot.

note: trying to upload picture. How the hell does this shit work?
