Very rarely do I draw anything that isn't sequential... I happen to have a few on hand so I just wanted to share them with you guys!


Don't know where I was going with this shot. I think I was going to make the tree limbs like tentacle arms or kick-ass action missiles or something but forgot so they look all weird and stupid


Remember in the 50s how every cartoon animal smoked a cigar and wore gloves? Well, I don't. I was born in the 80s. But here's a picture anyways.


Angry Black Guy, a self portrait. I like the minimalist approach to the lighting and how the eyes vaguely curve below the sloping, neanderthal-like brow.


I was constipated. In the time it took me to dump, I managed to draw this comic strip. The quality and content are befitting the settings it was drawn in!


I was on a really long (like, 45 minutes) bus ride to Seattle and happened to have my laptop and tablet ready. Let's just say drawing on a bumpy ass buss doesn't improve your linework or coloring but I work with what I can get.


I believe this picture speaks for itself.


came up with this little comic in 10 minutes as an inside joke for 4chan users (especially /c/). Basically, we always rag on ctrl+alt+del webcomic because Tim B^Uckley (or Tim Fuckley) can't write for shit, his comics always have a throwaway panel, and his characters are poorly drawn with a horribly generic B^U face. There was one comic where his character was falling out of a window and his body was blurred to show motion... AND HIS EYES WERE STILL HALF CLOSED. So yeah, this goes out to all the tools who enjoy that generic crap.
B^U

I like the self-portrait, particularly the cross hatching under the jawline. Particularly I like that the entire thing is cartoony style yet still conveys the essence of reality.

I also seldom sketch anything anymore that is not in some way connected with sequential art. I would be unable to put a filler in my strip as an alternative to going on hiatus because it would require just as much effort to come up with worthwhile filler material -something at least germane to the strip - as it would take to just pound out and refine a new page of gag-a-day stuff.

I will admit though that most of my stuff starts out very realistic in nature -- even the outright fantasy stuff or sci-fi creations -- and then I have to painfully 'toon them up to suit my needs.
