Every so often I clean out the various containers around the house filled with writing utensils. I make a little picture with all the pens and markers and such. This is the newest monstrosity.

So I got the post title there as a comment on the wordpress.com version of my site, which I left up and just put a link to the new lifewithouttaffy.com site you’re looking at now. The comment was left on a silly little picture of Batman I did last year. See the original post here. I don’t know if ‘Nikki’ was looking at something else when he/she thought that it looked more like me than Batman, and that it was gayyyy. Gay with 4 y’s. That’s real gay apparently. So, by popular demand, here’s a picture of me as a gayyyy Batman. Enjoy.
This is my interpretation of this week’s Illustration Friday topic “Blanket”. I thought about a couple different ways to do it and I settled on my favorite. As a youngster, as I’m sure most kids do, I’d tie my blanket around myself and ran around like Superman. In my socks and underwear. This kid isn’t me. I don’t know who he is. Or why he’s in my house. Weird.
(Pen & Ink, Crayon and Photoshop on paper.)
I have several bins/buckets/tins/cups of writing utensils all over the damn house. Every now and then I go through them to see what ones work and which don’t to make room for more pens and crap that I’ll throw out in a year. I made this drawing using all the pens/pencils/crayons/markers in one such box. I like him. He means business. I’ve done this a couple times before: Check out Lampreybot and Trouser Bacon.
When I started this particular series of Muppets on Meth (with Kermit here) I said that I wasn’t sure I was gonna make more than the one. All it takes is some kind words from a fan and it continues. (It’s all your fault JT) Fozzie was my favorite on the old Muppet Show. It’s sad to see him fall so far. The sores may be a little gross and over the top, but I happened to see a segment on Current the other day about meth addicts so I added them for a touch of authenticity. Any thoughts on who I should do next?
I found this school worksheet and I thought it would be fun to fill it out myself. I probably shouldn’t be posting this on a Sunday, but I figure I’m going to Hell already, so screw it. Not quite as blasphemous as my Phobia piece, but I may get some hate comments from it that I hope are more creative than what ian wrote on that post. How somebody could get offended by a picture of Jesus and resort to cursing me out is crazy. Anyhow. Here it is. I even used some crayons to get that authentic 10-year-old look. Or something.
Yep. I’m on a bit of a robot kick lately. I have a cup full of pens, markers and such near the computer here and every once and a while I go through it and make sure they work and stuff. I drew this robot guy here using all of them.
I have a toolbox full of pens and markers and pencils and crayons. Every year or so I go through it and make sure I need them all and I test the pens and such to see that they still work. I usually just scribble a few lines and that’s it. This time I decided to make a little creature with all the writing tools. Trouser Bacon? You don’t want to know, trust me.
Ah, yes. The comick. Three years in the making. Me and kt collaborating on a little comick story. The short description is that it’s a story about potheads’ adventures. Being it’s about drug-users, it gives us the opportunity to draw crazy shit. And by issue two, it gets even crazier. That’s the main character Max with the anime-hair on the bottom. Tyrone, the Thalidomide victim on the left. H.I. the constant prick on the right. I really want to bust the first issue out soon. Apologies for the crappy photo of the picture. 11×17 is too big for my scanner.
Another ancient picture I’ve unearthed. I must’ve drawn this one in 1981 or so, when the world was in the throes of the Pac-Man fever pandemic that we, as Americans, still haven’t quite recovered from.
