So last Friday was the latest in a long string of technological failures, starting with my laptop's broken hinge, continuing with the second broken refridgerator in six months, and finally culminating in a fried cable modem. So I spent the weekend doing hourly comics, partially as an excuse to use up the last few blank pages in my TARDIS book, but mostly just to keep from going bonkers. There's quite a bit of them, being three days worth of comics, but I really think they're some of the best I've ever done. Enjoy!
( And if anything else breaks, it's not my fault. )

Recently I've been playing a free-to-play MMO called Dragonica Online. They're having a comic-drawing contest to celebrate their first week of Open Beta, so i decidd to do a quick entry. And here it is!

An art exercise - you have a couple minutes to draw yourself. Also a bit of a sketch for the style of the upcoming FFXII comic.

It has been waaaaay too long since I last updated. So have some art! This piece of art came mainly from my desire to draw a suit of armor which was completely inefficient and utterly ridiculous.



As for why it's been so long between updates, I started a Pokemon-related art project over on the Smogon boards. In a nutshell, I'm designing a Pokemon for every type combo that doesn't currently have one. From now on, I'll be updating here every time I completely finish a 'mon design.

And now, to rip off Kate Beaton.



Yes, this is a reasonable illustration of myself as an 8 to 10 year old. A goofy looking scarf, a crew-cut, and an obsession with turtles.

So I had an exceptionally odd dream last night, so I decided to record it for posterity. Or, you know, mockery. Whichever. I've condensed the events a bit, but I swear by the holy belly hair of Thor I did not make this up.

I do love a good nonsense animal. ^^

So for the first time in weeks, I actually felt like drawing last night. I blame the work of Lucy Knisey, which I spent some time looking through last night. I started by doing a warm-up exercise, entitled "Draw Your Neuroses."

( Be glad I only did two. )

I got up early yesterday to meet a guy from the phone company, called in to repair our house phone. The rest of the day was pretty dull, but I've done my best to make it interesting.

Over at Smogon, there's a thread in the art section that encourages folks to present their interpretations of Pokemon as different Types. Water/Flying Pikachu, for example, or Fire-type Exeggutor. Here's a few of my recent contributions to that illustrious thread;



We have Water/Electric Torkoal, Psychic Snorlax (complete with nerdy bowlcut!), Lava Lamp Rotom, Ice-type Yanmega, and a special request, Dark/Flying Feraligatr.
