I Didn't Do This

Nothing today, but here's some work to look at: Andrew G Schick and Massimo Carnivale. These are both, just, wowzers.


A drawing by Carnivale, based on the movie No Country For Old Men

Mocking Funday

Well, an exciting weekend. Drinks were had. Then more drinks were had. Drawings were drunkenly half-finished. Things were not posted till Monday. Etcetera.



And here's one of many pages of drunken bar slatterns. These are all pretty gross.

And here's today's transit doodle.

The Risks Of Train Doodling

No train sketch today. While scanning the crowd at the State/Lake red line platform I was approached by a fairly respectable looking older gentleman, who I suppose had been watching me look around, and who planted himself about two feet from me before we had this exchange:

Crazy Asshole: Do you know me?

Myself: I don't think so, have we met?

CA: Do you know me?

Me: What?

CA: Do you know me!

Me: No! Jesus, calm down!

CA: Then don't fucking look at me. We understand each other?

All this as a multi-ton train rushes up to meet us. I can honestly say I have never been more concerned that someone was going to shove me onto the tracks. Needless to say, fear of stabbing threw me off my game a bit. So nothing today, but there is this interesting tidbit, courtesy of reddit:

Targeting the DMC-FX77 at girls, the latest Lumix has smart software that can airbrush pictures in-camera to remove wrinkles, whiten teeth and even apply make-up like blush and lipstick. Take a picture of your girlfriend and there’s no need to load up Photoshop later: you can turn her into a super model just with a couple of toggles.

The idea that our digital avatars will soon be more attractive than us in real time is, in some small way, reassuring. Like falling asleep in a snowstorm.

Anyway,read the full piece here, and more tomorrow.

Newsprint Cowboy

Whooo! Done with that cowboy commission! Here's the original line and also the color version...


March Is The Best Month

So, fun (ish) few weeks; I have a job now, working for [redacted], it's really [redacted]. Can't complain, as I had spent a year plus pining for a job (almost exactly this kind of job too) and now I've got that minimum wage money rolling in..

So, things are good, working on a commission right now (post it when it's done) and diving headfirst into the depths of reddit.


I found this in my files, don't think I've posted it yet....
