2018-07-15 20:14:01 +0000 UTC View PostPart of a set of gag comics for an issue of a magazine that will have the overall theme of "scams." The gags are all taken from classic scams of the day that have names like "the melon drop" and etc.
Not sure what amount of the magazine this is for i can or can not give away info about. It's not MAD, tho maybe it would be an okay idea to try and ...
2018-07-13 17:17:57 +0000 UTC View PostThere's a gumby crange just out of shot, but when the book comes out, we'll do fuller page spreads that show the whole thing (hopefully). There are several pages through-out the comic where this has happened and I have made sure they will at least be seen a little more properly in the book. Dang I hope so, at least. anyway, need to write more. must...
2018-07-10 18:28:22 +0000 UTC View Postsome downtime during the summer. A small vacation visiting parents will be coming to a close by the end of this week.

2018-06-24 18:48:48 +0000 UTC View PostWOOOOOO, god. I am trying to get ahead of myself before traveling home next week and I have the next several pages after this penciled. Just gotta take a day to do each page while also finishing up the BACK book plates. Just feel rushed a little. These pages are good tho, shit starts to happen and it's fun to draw at least.
2018-06-20 21:52:32 +0000 UTC View Posthad to re-write and consolidate this bit from 2 pages to one. Cutting some fat and trying to be story consistent in ways no one but me and one or two kids on twitter might catch. NO shade to the kids, i respect that game. I just also know what its like to play on either side of it, creator and details-obsessor.
Gotta get ahead in the game!!! I'll...

Oh! The things family gets you to draw and the powerlessness I feel of not being able to say 'no.'
2018-06-13 22:09:26 +0000 UTC View PostFinally, the ball(s) is (are) rolling.
I took time out today to guest-record an episode of the Talking Simpsons podcast! It was a fun time and a pleasure to be on and talk simps with those boys. The episode will actually be going up very soon, if you follow thei...
2018-06-11 22:32:00 +0000 UTC View PostHad a busy personal day the past coupla days, but all it does is make me ready to keep going when I get back to da drawing board, then it makes me worried I'm behind on everything for skipping a day, THEN I go home and get toasted playing dark souls or something and the whole thing starts up again and I learn NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!! Such is the creative...
2018-06-10 21:11:34 +0000 UTC View PostAttempting to give Emerson a similar color scheme or similar aesthetic to how I figured out how to make Crange not feel naked without actually giving either of them clothes. I also keep thinking of Zorak from SGC2C and studying his beak and his head and his vest and trying to replicate that in some form with Emerson's look. Maybe they SHOULD just h...
2018-06-05 21:58:09 +0000 UTC View PostI don't really have much to work on beyond this and BACK and it feels weird, cus I've always been a creature of many projects. More time to let picross games take me under or, I guess also, work ahead ON current projects. Page at a time. day by day. We're gonna get there.
2018-06-03 17:49:05 +0000 UTC View PostThere we go! back on track for tomorrow. Want to get to the good shit sooner! There's already 20 pages of this ending (including "crange wakes up")!
2018-05-31 21:41:04 +0000 UTC View PostI wish I spent today a little more responsibly, but what's done is done. the second good boy for the week will have to be pushed to friday, but I did spend a good chunk of time doing a second pass of the writing on this page and feel very good about it, especially the third panel joke.
I can't wait to get to the greasy and violent parts of ...

2018-05-28 15:45:59 +0000 UTC View PostHere's today's haul of working. Getting the bones of the scene in place then I'll fuck around with the backgrounds and make em move to show the rickety-ness of the bridge.
A part of me is wearing down and wanting to switch over to the Adobeâ„¢ line of video editing stuff, which I have access to (legally). It'll be like learning all over again, bu...
2018-05-26 22:22:29 +0000 UTC View Posthere's some donkeys for the scene remake. These are the poses where Donkey says "YES. THAT" from the rope bridge scene.
I'm pretty much going to lose the rest of this day to making sure a migration to a newer computer goes smoothly. A new drawing computer is what I put down on, which will be nicer to lug around with me on the road to oklahoma and...
2018-05-25 19:05:52 +0000 UTC View Postroly poly shrek heads
This scene is starting to come together! It's fun to draw, but the real treat and meat of the whole thing is making it all come together when editing them moving. It's messy, but I like it. Like playing with silly putty and your gameboy camera.
2018-05-23 22:41:21 +0000 UTC View Postit's fun to talk to yourselves!!!!!!!
I will be moving offices soon so I might gotta take another break for a week or something! f**k!!! but its cool cus it'll be my own little hole to run into when I'm scared (which is always). Not sure when, but soon.
2018-05-22 21:06:53 +0000 UTC View Posthad a nice weekend with friends. then i did this strip. then i was like "shit I gotta do that whole scene with shrek and donkey on the rope bridge!" but then i double checked and it's just a 30 sec part that is easier to deal with. But I still gotta get it done, but i won't have a heart attack about it. anyway, that's about where I'm at! Thank you ...

2018-05-16 15:11:49 +0000 UTC View PostHere we are, cool. Now I'm going to wait until friday when I drive to toronto for the tcaf show. Driveing is fun, you have to be quiet and think about God or you can listen to hella podcasts. Nothing else to do when driving, I think.

The line-art gets a little sparser than usual near the end! I'm going to attempt something that might hopefully save me some time in the long run. I've been coloring lines to make shapes in the color, but I'm gonna try making the shapes WHIL...

This isn't fully done, still need to do the line coloring and stuff, but whatever! Here it is mid-process after adding the basic colors and flats. gotta give more definition to that wrinkly face and make the face mask feel more hollow with darker colors.
