Early Tuesday Drawing


I don't know why, but the thought of a magical flashlight fascinates me.


Yet Another Cover Of The Comic Book I Will SOMEDAY Do: This issue will contain a story that finally separates fact from fiction regarding the ancient legend of the Golden Flashlight. I figure if I keep doing covers they will slowly and incrementally, over time, develop into full stories, which will evolve into full printed books, which will be the seed of my multi-million dollar comic publishing company, (whose titles will eventually be made into movies.)

Ellis, please slap a sleeper hold on Marty until he promises to put up the next installment of Jimmy Bowles, and while you are at it I'd like to see the next cover of Zonzen. Skribbl, maybe a glimpse of a future issue of Skrib-bot, Destroyer of Humans, 4000 A.D. Rick, eagerly awaiting next Tux panel, and Scott, more of your inspirational comic drawings please. Tom Carrol, Dok, where are you? (Notice how I'm practicing being a comic company executive? I'll pay you all a page rate of $1,000...)

More Ellis LIES!



Although Jeff, Marty, Ellis and I did have a grand night out and we did see Ghost Rider, I will not stand by and idly let Ellis' slippery lips desecrate Jeff's and my good names!

Ghost Rider, to us, was the WORST movie of the year so far. Written and directed by the same 4th grader Mark Steven Johnson... or Steven Mark Johnson, whatever... it was campy corn crap. Either way, Ellis will NOT stain our true opinions! Our reputations are too valuable to the public at large to be besmirched in this manner. The movie was celluloid poo.

However, the evening out with the four of us was very enjoyable. Even with a Ranjo present.

On a different note, I myself as well as many others should be impressed with my alliterative skill above with the line "idly let Ellis' slippery lips".


Lastly, Marty, here's the picture of my friend's friend's Halloween night that captured a whole hell of a lot of ghostly ectoplasm in front of their house. And also a more exciting way to play tennis.

That is all.

Scott

Ghost Rider Evening



Went with Marty, Jeff and Scott to see Ghost rider last night. Scott and Jeff gave it raves. Marty and I may be too sophisticated for comic book movies. I enjoyed it as much as my refined sensibilities would allow. Maybe my past history as a splash page model influenced my enjoyment.

Mind Benders



Mind Benders,A movie with this strong image. I think it influenced a lot of sci fi art. Jeff Jones comes to mind. Goofey movie about isolation tanks and mind control. But this one really cool image.

Another Cool Site to Bookmark



Lines and Colors

As stated on the blog:

Lines and colors is a blog about drawing, sketching, painting, comics, cartoons, webcomics, illustration, digital art, concept art, gallery art, artist tools and techniques, motion graphics, animation, sci-fi and fantasy illustration, paleo art, storyboards, matte painting, 3d graphics and anything else I find visually interesting. If it has lines and/or colors, it's fair game.

Very inspirational if you want to kickstart your brain!

Go bookmark it now!! (if you haven't already done so)

Material from an animator



These former Disney animators are great knowledge pack rats. I got this from Todd Ammons at work. From a big book of notes on drawing and clean up and all things artistic.

Hey, how about that new link field button. I needed that.

the link in the title takes you to a photo of my house
