Feel Good Hit Of The Summer


nicotine, valium, vicodin, marijuana, ecstasy, and alcohol.
c-c-c-c-c-cocaaaaaaaine.

The Widow


this is the second drawing i've posted inspired by the song The Widow, by Mars Volta. only this one is a lot more trippy. i used to draw weird creepy stuff like this in college all the time. but tonight it just kinda came out of left field. right before this one, i was doodling my typical cutesy-crap.

Grey Gardens


for the Kick Girl graphic novel, and for the webcomic, i'm going back and un-toning all my pages, and making them just grayscale. i'm glad i taught myself how to do the tones... it was useful to help me learn some tricks. in print though, the comics never looked like i wanted them to. onscreen, it just looks hideous.
grayscale is easier. and easier to change.
going back and redoing everything also gives me a chance to fix any pannels i dislike. it takes time to redo it... but i'm happier with how the comic looks now. i hope you will think so too!

Foxy Lady


pencil sketches are okay, right? i think if i tried to ink it, i'd just ruin it.
Foxy is pretty much my ideal girl i think. despite the fact she's looking naughty here, she's kind of a tomboy, and she really is the sweetest person ever. way sweeter than any realistic person. she's the main female role of my "Orion" story stuff - the comic series i'd probably start after Kick Girl. "Orion" is kind of like... a space-Rome story. with gods and demi-gods and empires and spaceships. lovely. if i had to relate Foxy to a roman (technically, greek i guess) character, i'd have to say she's like Helen of Troy. only she doesn't come from a god-like background. i think her father works in the empire's main palace, so she spent a lot of time there growing up, learning how to fix and build stuff. and of course, she befriends our future hero and villain. when she's all grown-up, she helps Orion by making him the best ships and other things to aid him on his way. eventually, she is captured by Emperor Rage, who has been enamored with her since childhood.
here's some sprites i made of the main characters about 2 years ago:

Last Caress


here's Harkin and Davey as friends. :D
probably is not canon tho. :C
or if it could be, it probably is irrelevant haha
the guys are doing a great job coming up with stuff about Davey. i am liking him more and more all the time. just in my email 5 minutes ago, i read about his possible history. it's val-approved.
i am really liking Harkin in the scripts too. he is the poster child for "pissed failure." that, and he likes donuts!!
i couldn't ask for more!

Character Cruds


my first concept drawings of two characters from a project Shay and i are working on. this is by no means an accurate drawing ahaha.
i drew it because when i read the scripts, i always picture Jasper as Kill Boy. aaaaaand Jasper is not Kill Boy. so, even if it's not right, at least i can get my brain working better. Shay said that Jasper has more of a Shinji-build than a KB-build. so here's my first go at it. Sable was just for fun, and her outfit is just terrible. gotta start somewhere i guess. :D

Escape


and i'm so confused, about what to do...
sometimes i want to throw it all away.

holy CRAPPPPPDFDLSFJKLSDFJDFLK!!!
Star Wars doujinshi!? FRICK'N YESSSSSS.

ahaha. hilarious. its published through Tokyopop-Japan.
not for Americas... wahh. i want it, but can never have it. :c
it's drawn by Hiromoto, who makes part the offical manga, too.
he has that "it's ugly but it's pretty" style that i've come to love.
look look look look: Sample 1 / Sample 2
i went out of my way to see if i could find any more...
i could only find yaoi though. booooo. yuck. :c
this one had a cute cover though.
god bless you, internets.

Shojo V


there are many things that are great in the world. let me tell you them.

-Penn Jillette has a video-blog. To my suprise. I totally love him. I have to go through and watch all of these.
-Freakazoid is still hilarious.
-Sparkpeople.com is kinda fun to use. I watch Nicole's videos every day. I think I'm starting to fall for her.
-Robot Chicken Star Wars. This clip isn't from the Special. I lol'd.
-Mark Hamill on the Muppet Show, from 1980. Cuuuuuuuuute. ;__;
-Tegaki. But of course I never ever use it. Cool doodle site for 14 year olds tho.
-Snorlax. HE'S MORE RIPPED THAN YOU!
-Gravitation. Of course. This is one of my favorites. Hoho.

Songs of the NOW are:
In My Head - Queens of the Stone Age (lyrics)
My Slumbering Heart - Rilo Kiley (lyrics)
Smile Lines - Incubus (lyrics)
and
Mindless Self Indulgence (i can't just pick one)
Money, Mastermind, Bomb this Track

My Favorite Loser


I can best sum up Sneed as "a pissed little failure."
Maybe we can just forget the movies, and just make Davey comics instead!!
... :0


I think I'll call this one: "The Reason Why Davey And Harkin Aren't Friends Anymore."
No BL intended.

CLONE WARS


There just aren't enough tears in the world to properly express my feelings on this.

Dia de los Dangerous


i was going for a Venture Brothers kind of thing. (this, and the last one, too.)
it doesn't really look like i drew it, really. besides the hair.
i hate to admit it, but picking up my pen and drawing has been like pulling teeth for me recently. i can't really understand the exact psychology behind it.

Space Pop


Luna Nox. I figured it was about time I created some girl-character-ideas too. She's one of "the good guys," but I can see her arguing with Davey a lot.

Legendary


Another Davey Proton character, Rex Ripper.
I don't ever intend Davey to face this guy. Maybe they walk by each other in passing once, but that's the most they ever have contact with each other. No offense, Davey, but Rex would totally murderize you.
After Rex meets his end, Sneed takes his eye and destroys his body.

Decepticon


here's an homage to my old art: KG the way i originally intended her to be. a tough beat-m-up, smoking, drinking, trashy, uncaring chick, who crushed the hearts of men. she really has gotten more conservative over the years. i think she started getting emo-angsty when she started admiring others... i think that's when she started to loose badass points.
she was much more of a ho. she also would sometimes have a monkey tail, but that fell by the wayside pretty fast.


also, she was followed around by this little yellow dinosaur named "Ajax," lovingly nicknamed "Ajaxer." he's kinda cranky and would try to be her voice of reason... which often resulted in him getting kicked around a lot (him, and a cat-guy named Ramex, which, besides maybe Anna, you wouldn't be familiar with). Sadly, Ajax is no longer part of the KG-Universe... but Chris plays a similiar role. hahaha... sorry Chirs. :X

here's some old Kick Girl drawings that i scanned in. check out if you'd like!
