here i am, rock you like a hurricane
listening to: the crankcast ep158
watching: wolverine & the x-men
reading: the walking dead v2
so i've been away for a bit due to work. not my life's work but the work that makes sure the bank doesn't come and take my car away. i heard our next president barack obama say, "regardless of what you say, whatever it is that you are spending the most time and effort on is what's most important to you." you know what that's called? gut check. although, sometimes it feels like a kick in the nuts.
coming soon...
i've been working on a few different things at the same time and i think that's what's been driving me nuts. i've been spreading myself way too thin so i've had to reprioritize and back-burner a few things. i'll be working on a comic that i'll be drawing and that my friend will be writing. i'll also be embarking on a writing experiment in the very near future. these past few weeks have allowed me to do little but i've been able to steal a moment or two to try and develop some inspired thoughts.
pug in costume: a 90 minute sketch that revokes my man card. tried to go a bit more real than cartoony. i wanted to do a halloween theme sketch and was thinking about drawing a witch. instead, i drew a pug dressed up as a pumpkin.
pug in dish: another 90 minute sketch of a pug. so after not drawing for a while, what do i come up with?
a couple of pugs. that's how you know i'm gangsta.

my kind of town, chicago is
listening to: slug & murs - felt 2: tribute to lisa bonet
watching: urlacher commercials on the youtube
reading: espn about bears victory
that was a good weekend and i am tired.
the best part of waking up isn't folgers in your cup.
it's knowing chuck norris didn't kill you in your sleep.
puss in boots redux: a watercolor version of puss in boots.

my tax bracket status got her questioning my manhood
listening to: voices by rev theory
watching: random wwe promos on the youtube
reading: random x-men comics
i hear voices in my head.
they counsel me. they understand.
they talk to me.
things that make sense only to me:
call me chester cause i'm chasing cheetos... i mean, cheese.
with august over, it looks like the last leg of the race.
circus peanuts: i realize that i constantly talking about the crankcast but that's because i'm a fan. while listening to the last episode, it occurred to me that mike and crank (the hosts) somewhat remind me of charlie brown and linus.
white queen: i really dig how marvel has incorporated the best part of the old costume (the corset) and the current costume for our resident telepath. although i haven't been to the comic store in a dog's day, i'm still able to read issues hear and there thanks to borders. i'm actually thinking of going back to collect floppies... but i'm broke as dave kim.

listening to: rob base & dj ez rock - joy & pain
watching: cosby show season 2
reading: astonishing x-men #26
UPDATE:
here's my submission in a jam i did with toonfed some other cats over at deviantart. the theme was dr doom but 3 different versions: steampunk, ancient japan and future (doom 2099?)
check us out as whole and show toonfed some mad love.
as much as i love to draw, it's sometimes equally frustrating. in somewhat related news, i got a 40% off coupon in the mail for blick and bought a new watercolor set that i really had no business buying but that i saved a lot on. now what should i do with this 30% off coupon?
strongbad: the email. the email. what what. the email. something to get myself back in the groove.
marilyn: here i tried practicing a bit more realism using photo reference. considering that cartooning is an expression of reality, it's hard to express something without having a solid grasp of it. something i relearn every time i pick up a pencil.
scarecrow: a batman villain design from batman begins. i think i like this look more than the standard comic book costume. it's somewhat funny to me that it closely resembles the scarecrow from marvel.
