Darn Tootin'

Here we are, a burly pal for the cowgirl below. I'd like to cover him in ridiculous guns at some stage but I can't seem to be arsed right now. Think I'm a call him Shotgun Gristle McGee.

Hey howdy hey

I was sketching random character designs last night at half past stupid in the morning last night as I couldn't sleep, and refined a sketch of a cowgirl into this. The style's not something I'm that used to, influenced most likely by the work of Derek Yaniger (Did a lot of stuff for cartoon network back in the day, have a gander at www.derekart.com), but I quite like it.
I think she needs a big burly sidekick.

Another concept for the character of a dark knight. I like this chap, I think he looks like a pompous ass. Though I can't decide whether I want the character to be dark and foreboding or more appealing and comical.
Can't think any more I MUST go out and buy a curry

Wooo spooky

Just scribbling down concepts as I go...think this project might aim to be somewhat dark. Need to work on putting a bit more depth into it though methinks.

New Project

Something scrappy and quick to try and get out of a bit of a slump. We've got a nice shiny new project, which means we've got a nice shiny new brief to write, and it looks probable that I'm going to try and make some kind of book (again). Working title I have at the moment is
"Lucy and the Dark Knight."
In which a little girl teaches an embodiment of evil how to LOVE.

maybe.

One of the things about contemporary paranoia I hate the most is the fuss people make today about bacteria. Kill 99.9% of bacteria or your children will be RAPED or something like that. And parents can't seem to realise that keeping their childen in houses sprayed and cleansed bacteria free actually does their immune systems more harm than good, their white blood cells never get a chance to experience the things they need to develop properly. Go make your child play in the mud, it's GOOD FOR THEM

Also, fun fact: one of the textures used in this image is the floor of the illustration toilets at uni. woop

The truth is out there

Oh Mulder.
