Life Sketching

The Dork Knight

I saw the Dark Knight and I have to say it was way better then I expected this drawing to be. But still not too bad considering I haven't drawn anything in over a month. I'd like to post something witty here so that I can read it later and bask in my humility but I'm too busy for that today. Maybe later.

Paladin Level 5, 3D Mace of Learning

Yeah, I used to play Dungeons and Dragons. But I also used to wear corduroy pants so you can't really hold it against me. These images have plenty of issues but I'm starting to get things to move in the right direction. Can't take credit for the bed (which is probably the coolest part of the thing) but other then that it's all me baby! Except for the chairs. Or the blinds. Mace of Learning!

Alfred Hitchcock Presents My Third 3D

My Second 3D: 3D for Dummies

I learned alot from this fork. You just have to know how to listen. Too bad it wasn't a tuning fork. Ba-dum-b...actually, I'm not even sure that gets a ba-dum-bum.

New DU Two Review

The DU crew gets bigger everyday. Month.

My First 3D - A Little Golden Book

G-Force. G as in 'Glide', force as in force

Just for fun (sure this is fun! Right?) here is the original with legs crossed and the extra-crispy with legs in slouch mode. In retrospect not sure that it was necessary or successful to re-draw the pose. Well, I'll be; necessary has one "c" and two "s's" while successful has two "c's" and two "s's". Fascinating Captain. Anyway I did use reference for the uniforms this time. What I should have also done is decided on a scene before I pretended there was one. This is thanks to Photoshop's slight-of-hand. And the letter "G".

File this under "How did I not think of this earlier?"

Rough sketch (aren't these ALL rough sketches?) of a G-Force pose. I can't believe I didn't think of this already! I will need reference for this when I revisit it.

Kung Fu Chicken

Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't draw as well as you want to. Damn! I wanted this to be better, so it WILL be next time. Practice may not make perfect but it's gotta do something! Anyway, I flipped the Chicken in Photoshop and realized that I should have drawn this as the pose in the first place AND I should have drawn this better!! Dammit!! It looks like Glide's taking a Boy Scout oath for cripes sake!

Kill Chicken Kill!

Finally used a book I bought 3 years ago for reference! This pose was flat-out swiped from a poster for some movie called "Kill! Kill! Kill!". My guess is the movie was about some sort of killing. But seeing as how it's an old 60's or 70's B-movie, it was more likely about closeups of people discussing their plans and then one scene where some dude is running with a gun and shooting at stuff.

Robin and Chicken

This took way too long to draw but just like Virgina Slims is to the ladies, it was worth it.

The Good, the Bad, and the Chicken

Take two. I'm not talking about the candy bar or the R&B act.

Aging Amos

I don't know who comes up with the names for these cats! Another work related drawing which has the added benefit of being fun to do

Apologies to Bill Maudlin

This was done without any real reference so there ya go. It has some obvious (to me anyways) inspiration from comics I had seen by the late great Bill Maudlin. And by some old dude I saw riding a hog with the same helmet and a cigarette hanging out of his mouth. I thought I flashed back to the 1950's except that I wasn't around in the 1950's. So I must have thought I flashed back to the mid 1990's when I saw some movie about the 1950's. If I do this again, I'll get reference first.

Chicken Royale

Only my geekdom was used for reference. And it seems that wasn't enough. Surprisingly.

Feynstein bobblehead study

This is pretty rough but then again my tools were an empty water bottle and a plastic fork.

A Chickenstrip a day keeps something something

Did this from memory so I'm sure it has many MANY things that are incorrect and I'm not sure how to spell inconsistencies. But you still knew what it was didn't you? That's right, you did. So here's a little gift from me to you...

Healthy Hummus

1 can garbanzo beans (chick peas. Coincidence? I think not. Wow that's an old reference in the year 2008)

1 tbls Extra Virgin Olive Oil (the one that tastes like olives)

1 1/2 tbls Lemon juice (mine came from a real lemon shaped squirt bottle. Thats just like the real thing!)

1/2 tbls chopped garlic

Some actual green olives (I put in a forkful. Look it up. It's a word.)


Blend and enjoy meat-bags!

A Chicken a day...

Had the idea to put the folks in different scenarios everyday. For example remember the Charlie Sheen/Emilio Estevez movie where they play garbage men? Nobody else does either but...what? You do remember that movie? Seriously? Did you see that movie or you just remember it being advertised? You actually saw it? In the theater or on TBS? The theater. Wow. Didn't that movie make $14 at the box office? I mean that would pretty much be you and your date financing that piece of garbage, pardon the pun. I'm sorry, say again? You saw it twice? Wow. I am REALLY sorry to hear that. Anyway, I never saw it and now I don't remember why I brought it up.

Wasn't overly happy with how this came out but that's not the idea. The idea is just to do it. Like Nike or Ben Stiller's character from "Starsky and Hutch."
