I ended/paused the stream, and I’m still drawing at the moment, and I didn’t make a whole lot of significant progress on comic stuff beyond “Ohhh, cool boots!”...
...but I ended up revisiting an alien doodle that was somewhere in my backlog of doodles, but without the rastacap on top. I may or may not revisit the idea of a rastafarian grey Alien—because I liked the idea of an alien that says “We come in peace” deciding that Rastafarians are A+ humans and chilling with them.
I apologize for the upload spree (unless you follow a lot of people)—but I am re-uploading the finished zombie dude that was previously a WIP on here.
Basically, I’m pretty happy with my Victorian proto-Zombie from The Monkey’s Paw attempt.
I learned that Tapastic lets you put image banners up for your comics. I still wanted one for Twitch, so I did a speedpaint of my planned webcomic’s five main protagonists to get a feel for composition and color planning.
I’m glad that I had a pretty solid idea of what I want my two high elf characters and my one human character to look like, but the furry creature and the dwarf are difficult to pin down in terms of color scheme, and I’ve been struggling to figure out what I’m going to do for them. I think I’m getting somewhat close to what I want for the furry critter, but the dwarf guy is harder to pin down.
That said, the moral of the story is that designing characters in black and white at first makes it difficult to pin down their colors later.
Oh, and as a fun fact, I’m a filthy Orlandoan who’s been corrupted by Disney so much that I’ve made the big tol dude do the Disney point. lol, it’s bad, I’ll do the Universal handwave and/or the Disney point IRL, and it upsets me.
>tfw you’re writing a rough draft for something and it actually alludes to the fact that coffee beans might be extinct or absurdly rare by 2080—ergo, coffee would be an extremely expensive black market luxury at the rate we’re going at.
I have learned that watching Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure all over again when you already know the exact flow of the story yields some interesting tidbits—particularly, bits of dialogue and animation are really beautiful examples of foreshadowing, and I’m just like “Ah! That’s so cool!”
Unfortunately, me and my spoiler hound attitude has screwed up one of my roommates. The other one is new to Jojo, and I have to reign in the first roommate so that the second one isn’t spoiled when he doesn’t want to be, and it’s weird to be vaguely told “well, I got used to you being ok with spoilers!”, and it’s like...
...ay, even spoiler hounds gotta have manners around others who aren’t.
I’m dead serious about this seamless dolphin vector pattern I made a while ago.
I ended up scrapping this a while ago, simply because pastel dolphins really aren’t something that fits in with the rest of my main portfolio, but...yeah...I did make this a while ago.
Dolphins. Yeah.
Guess who updated his own logo to be a bit sleeker. This guy. Guess who's about to put his own portfolio site back up online? This guy. Guess who's going to try to get back into design while we goes back to school for a Statistics degree.

The first panel is almost done! That said, aiming to the hatching look vaguely like medieval woodcuts is not as easy as I was hoping it would be, so it seems like this might be another one of those time-sink pages. :/
So, I’ve decided to work on the roughs for an old comic project I’ve wanted to do for years, and @plaguenurse did a remix with the baby being punched today.
It’s very dark humor, and it’s like…it makes me feel bad, but it’s also hilarious, and it’s just one of those things where I don’t know how to respond to it.
So, I’m working on a new page—lots of hands, I’ve noticed. Also, spending a bunch of time drawing rocks was kinda fun. But yeah, this is a wip.
I’m not sure if this horrified bathroom selfie properly expresses the horror of starting 2018 with watching the rotting pile of trash known as Grown Ups 2 at a friend’s party.
Greetings and salutations! I'm a graphic designer/illustrator, and this is my Tumblr. Feel free to check my about page for more info about me. Also, I only post my own things here—almost all reblogs will go to @dandyreblogs. Check that out if you're into aesthetics and other curious things.
