Comics!

Okay, so my regular scanner doesn't want to connect right now so I'm not uploading my sketchbook pages, but I did use the nicer but slower scanner to start importing one of my ideas.



A daily warm-up comic strip! This one is really crappy looking, I don't know if it was the ink or I was using the wrong side of the paper or the paper sucks or what but the next one was done correctly:



So I'm doing one of these every morning hopefully to get ready for the day and get a little brush practice everyday, I'm hoping they'll be funny, but they might devolve into simple studies or possibly a story of some sort, I don't know I've only made two so far.

If you want to follow these, I'm probably not going to post many on this blog, I set up a tumblr, I'd like to find a way to make a traditional webcomic set-up but I don't know where, so for now it's at: WakeUpAirplanes.tumblr.com

I also wanted to share my favorite videogame song at the moment,



I don't think I ever made it this far in the first Sonic, I'm pretty bad at games really, but I love the music and I like playing when there are other people to play with.

That's all fer now Folks!

A page a day

I haven't gotten much doodling time in recently, most of last week I spent working on a book report, and when I wasn't doing that I was either going to work or working on music or my other now 2 extra projects, which I'm not ready to post about yet. So just a few pages of sketches from during class the past week. I also bought New Super Mario Bros. Wii which will probably bite out a good amount of my time.








I really like newsprint, it takes the pencils so well and looks really nice.

Last, a couple work doodles.




That's all for now folks, but I'll probably start posting one of the two projects after thanksgiving, it's a daily thing but I don't want to start sharing until I'm sure that I'll be doing it daily, so I'm working on making it a habit and just refining my ability to do it. The other project probably won't be finished until mid-December if I can get to the pace I wanted to be at, but I'm already kind of behind. Luckily it's mostly because I have so much stuff that I have to do besides that and not because I'm ignoring it and putting it off.

Art Slump Broken?

This first stuff is from Monday last week, before I got swamped with work, school and other projects.



And here are the few blogable results from the block.

It had a lot to do with I just did not feel like drawing at all, so things came out terrible.

The block started to break in history class on monday, luckily


But now I'm out of practice so everything is very awkward and not what I want.
But at least it's becoming fun again.

Besides the Song A Day thing, I have one other project I'm working on, but I probably won't post anything from it until after thanksgiving, until then I'm not entirely sure I'm going to keep up with it, but it probably won't be until next year that I set it up.

I have a couple other ideas, but I haven't started them at all, mostly because I don't really have enough time right now, especially since I took up a job painting the windows at work, which is going terribly since the paint they bought is for decorating glassware I'm pretty certain, so yeah.

Anyways, good news now, an awesome Talking Heads/American Psycho cover:



I never would have thought to put these together, but Miles Fisher does an amazing job.

That's all fer now folks, but if you have a Tumblr let me know so we can be tumbl-buds.

Music Instead

So I'm not sure what drawings I have that are new and what are worth scanning, so for now this post won't contain any drawings. Instead I'd like to mention this:

I've begun trying to make a song a day; unfortunately blogger doesn't allow audio from what I can tell, so I started a tumblr account: http://wetuneairplanes.tumblr.com/ the first four songs are up, and hopefully I'll be able to come up with one a year. I'm trying to spend about an hour each day coming up with a new song, but we'll see how long I can keep it up.

That's all fer now, Folks!

Starting off, a few quick Mega Man doodles, I like the way he looks in the first games, I don't get why people draw him taller, he looks a lot better as a short dude. I guess Mega Man X is taller, but he looks awkward to me if he's drawn too tall and skinny.

These were drawn during my Treehouse of Horror Marathon



Then some lazy day of Halloween doodles, with two Geoweasel characters.


Yesterday I watched Die Hard for the first time, and it was great, further proving my theory that Bruce Willis is infallible, but hard to draw.

Finally, enjoy some Dick Dale, I think I'm going to make this my alarm clock starting tomorrow, what better way to wake up.


That's all fer now, Folks.
