Discovered one of my old sketchbooks!
This was a yooj dood I used to know. He had the makings of a great leader.
We played Duel Masters once! Haha!
Later met a Wizards DM R&D guy with the same name! Small world.

Seeing how delicate I can get on the Fudepen Black.
Listening to this Toro Y Moi album a lot recently. Favorite track is this dooder on my computer, Scooter. I was listening to the album and was like...that sounds like Kool A.D...and it was!

Breaking in my "new" blue-ring fudepen, in quotes since I seem to have lost my inking kit on the train at some point, so I'm in the process of rebuilding the team. You can see first contact on the stage-left eye, where it was more watery at first.
Needed a nonsense shape to scrawl so just went with something vaguely Ringu-ish.
When I studied for a summer in Japan, I got to visit the studio where they filmed the US version of The Grudge.
Also J-horror sucks.

Sketched a story about a girl who did stuff and this was her.
It's supposed to be like she shuffles like she's cocking a gun. Clever, right?

I wanted to draw something more conceptual and interpretive. Also wanted to include a loud pink since it's a color I don't use too often.
It's about being lost and drowning and knowing the answer and whatever.
When you're lost you can never be found. Haha.

Finally! Under 1 year of backlog to go! Only about 150 more posts to go...
About this piece...someone mentioned I have a tendency to draw turtles, and I guess that's kind of true, but by no means intentional.

There was a little cafe I used to go to.
It was an important place, it turned out.
Who would have thought?

Drawing random stuff and hating it. Ya know.
I saw the scene unfold.

Something's got to break you down.

Sometimes I draw on stuff so that I can throw it out. Put it in the garbage and throw it out.
Vomit it away.
Throw it out.

Trying out the G-pen and Sakura technical pens, plus a photo from one of the very last places I was at in the US...
I love the rain.

I have always been a fan of the Joker and Harley Quinn. I venture this came from that somewhere.
That Bruce Timm outfit was always so cool.
