SUMMER ODDITY

Summer Oddity, a new comic for the baby grand art show, and summer in general.

It’s presented in its complete horizontal format, as it’s presented in the show.

Full comic behind the cut.

This was a fun one, fun once I started going, as usual life put a strain on getting this done when I wanted to, that and I’m an expert procrastinator. At least I’m productive when I can focus. It’s the cooking comic/sing-a-long comic that I’ve been meaning to do for a couple months now, the format is a little different as the pages are formatted as squares, but otherwise I’m quite pleased with it. Probably the most nipples I’ve drawn in a single comic. Formally it’s reminiscent of an awesome issue of Scud the Disposable Assassin where Scud fights Voo-Doo Ben and Sol on the even pages, while Jeff escapes from the hospital in the evens, one of my all time faves. Adding the colors afterward helped a lot, to keep the story lines clear.

This is the first time I’ve inked a comic using brushes, and as you can see by the results, I’m definitely not all that comfortable with it, but I’m going to try and stick with it. Around page 8 or so I started to feel a bit more comfortable with using the brush. And near the end I was many times faster than the beginning. As usual I looked at a lot of Paul Pope and Farel Dalrymple comics, a lot less Taiyo Matsumoto, I think I appreciated these guys even more after looking at what they do with their brushwork and what I’m feebly attempt to do with mine.

Whatever, I hope you enjoy, and check it out at baby grand if you’re in the area until the 12th of Sept.

i need to post more pictures.  this one is from ps1.  last day of the olafur eliasson show, there were good things.  this was so incredibly long ago i don’t even know when it happened.  personal projects: i’m in the process of building the greatest table of all time.

BOOMFEX X5!!!!

BUY THIS.

 

= awesome!

 

 

I got my FIVE carnifexes.  i think they will all be boomfexes, probably.  also unknowingly picked up the new Meathaus compilation SOS.  it’s in FULL COLOR.  really rad, i look forward to reading it, especially on the subway for some reason. I might see hellboy 2 tonight b/c batman is sold out every time, by that i mean the imax version i don’t even care to watch it on a normal movie screen.  the problem is that every showing was sold out last weekend, even 2am and 6am showings.  gonna name my hive fleet SUPERFLAT i think.  it will be just that.

MAYBE THE BEST SPORT EVER.

I had no idea of the awesomeness in this world.

TESTING

PRETTY TIRED.

i got into work around 9am yesterday.  I left work around 10:15 am today.  had a presentation to do.  3ds kept crashing.  i figured out wordpress.  sean got jumped the day by a gang of youth before yesterday on the 6th ave stop where the L and the F connect.  He fended them off and had nothing stolen.  Good for him.  I need to change the colors I think.  Also

I have five carnifexes coming in the mail.

I don’t know if this layout is too much.

but here’s the first post.  it’s pretty interactive which is great.
