Bowie Doodle

This definitely started as a real project, and kind of devolved into trying to replicate instagram filters in Photoshop. Well, That's what it feels like anyway. That having been said, I like the black and white vector quite a bit, so maybe there's a future use for it......

Instagramed all to hell

Vanity Faired all to hell

Agamemnon-death-masked all to hell

Does It Look Like Asa Butterfield? Not Really, Whatever

A sort of proto-Ender's Game gif. Ta-da.

Mo' Shit From Da Movies

Watch the making-of here.

Kneel Before Occasional Posting!

Figured out how to do some basic animations in Photoshop. Let the dicking around begin!

Annnnd Then I Learned Some After Effects

Some doodles, that are, in addition to being doodles, also videos. The coolest part of each is like, the last 40 seconds, so.... guess that was worth it?

Part one:

Annnnd... Part two:

Yaaay! Another Fucking Doodle

Stuff coming soon. Real stuff. No fucking joke.

Graaahhh! Hulk Hate Long Interim Between Bouts of Awareness of Social Media as Necessary Tool of Modern Age! Graaahhh!

GrAh! Hulk can't believe so much time elapse! Hulk think... Nope, I was going to write an entry as the Hulk... can't do it. Not because of the diction, but it's just that to me the Hulk's editorial voice has always been overtly political and I don't want to do a Huffington Post piece in Hulk/pidgin/english. Anyway, some big stuff coming, probably next weekend, till then just doodles....

Originally this was more Kermit related, so, you know, it made more sense that way.

Dinosnore

"He doesn't want to be fed, he wants to hunt! You can't just bypass millions of years of evolution..."

Skull GIF

I haven't figured out what to do with these yet, but I have some images from work than need bored rearranging. So, for the moment, crappy .gif.

Updated to reflect updating.

The Lion CEO

So this isn't a 'project' per say, in the same way as sexting isn't really essay writing, more a brief and ill considered... uh... brief? Anyway, through a series of circumstances I found myself needing to doodle a picture of Ross Levinsohn, the current interim head of Yahoo, as a lion. Here are the results.

So, original drawing and lettering, scanned in, slightly cleaned up and turned purple

Experimenting now with maybe having more color in there...

Fuck it. Why not have some color?

Color brah. Color.

Although I fully intended to run this through Inkscape and then simplify the line-work to cut down on that sketch pencil feel, the end result of that was that the line thickness just went insane every time I tried to trace the bitmap. In the end I do kind of like the sketchy look, and time/effort constraints make it not worth it to spend five days figuring out Inkscape all over, so I can live with this.

Assassin

For nothing in particular.

People Draw Time

I got some good drawing time in at Abott's Habit in Venice this morning. I mean, good for me, not like.. objectively or whatever.

Sun-damage, man. Shit's fun to draw though.

She looked a lot like the actress Blake Lively. At one point I was like, "Am I weirding out the actress Blake Lively?" 

She looked sweet. We could have been friends.

Once More, With The Hammer Of Thor

I saw Cabin In the Woods this weekend, and wowzers. Sooo coool. It actually got me pretty jazzed for The Avengers as a side-effect of its excellence, so there's that. I did a doodle of Joss Whedon doing an Avengers musical, just because.

Did you know he directed an episode of Glee?

Yeah, where did that come from?

Oswaltian

Alright, so one of the cooler things about twitter is that you get to watch celebrities interact with each other -and with the normals too- in a way mandated by the new social contract of insight into famous people's lives, or at least the lives of interns at their respective handlers' firms, which is fun. I haven't tried asking George Clooney for braising advice yet, but I think you need to work up to that one.

So I saw that a cool and forward young woman sent Patton Oswalt some fan art, and this being the internet and all, I decided to steal copy the idea.

Anyway, here's mine: Patton Oswalt kind of as Hugh Hefner circa 1965. Sort of unintentional on the doing-it-face. Oh well.

Calibos Eins

So... developments, uh... lets see....

Oh, didn't get that Mondo poster, which was a bummer, but this /Film piece does heal the pain of the loss a bit, no fooling.

Other than that, Frank's (the greatest diner that Burbank -or the world, for that matter- had to offer) is now closed, so I and countless collectors of social security checks are forced to find a new place that even comes close, which will be hard.

Other than that... Yeah, nothing. I gotta do more, uh, things I guess. Yeah -things- that's the ticket.

I've decided to try to do a picture of my childhood Harryhousen idol: Calibos. The idea came to me whilst  enviously dicking around Sam Bosma's amazing blog, and so the doodle I did looks much less like Calibos, or even something I would normally draw, and more like somebody badly imitating Sam Bosma.

So, lesson learned there I guess.

Ododoodle

Alliguard!

I can't say what this doodle is, besides cool and abortive.

The Laddies!

So, I turned 25 today, which is upsetting at the most basic primal level of wanting to accomplish something before you turn 30. It's crunch-time now bitch.

To cheer myself up I doodled a band that is for legal purposes not in anyway related to the Fab Four.

Robot Doodle: The Beginening

This was a boredom doodle that took a long while to take hold, and which I'll probably finish tomorrow. Also, birthday, so, you know, a quarter century of good times.

Guess which one of these came along first....

This Needs Work, But I've Got 'Till The End Of The Year

Doodled a baby new year thing... Probably need a sash and a pissed off Father Time to complete the image. Maybe I'll make a card out of it or some such thing.
