An offering to the gods...


Let us pray:

O great gods of Guitar Hero,
Calm my nerves in my upcoming time of need.
Allow my reflexes to be as sharp as a ninja's blade
and my timing to be as good as that of a metronome.
Protect me from heathen hand-cramps
and help me vanquish thine enemy so that I can win a wicked-sweet electric guitar.
Amen.

Alrighty, now that that's taken care of I'll explain. I am in a Guitar Hero tournament on the weekend. The grand prize is an electric guitar, an amp and lessons, worth about $1000 in total. I hope I win but I'm not gonna get my hopes up too high. There's some pretty crazy people out there. Anyhow, I did this all in photoshop and it's kinda rough but I was just messing around and trying to use some of the tools I hadn't used before.

Also, you know that guy Kiko who makes the Penny-Arcade t-shirts? Of course you don't, but anyways I'm pretty sure he's in my head. He made the most perfect t-shirt for me, and I swear I have almost the same drawing in my binder, except for with a whole guitar (hero controller...). It has blue flames and everything! Needless to say, it's in the mail.

Life Cubed

Finally got around to scanning a good two pictures. Yep, I've been busy.
Anyways, not quite sure what I was thinking with this one. I must have just been in one of those moods...

Cartoon Series: Justin

Note: The pics have been removed because they sucked. See the edited version here.

This is supposed to be Justin. He's a ninja... a lazy ninja... one might even say he is the world's laziest. Anyhow, he's funny guy, and can make this really awesome face. If you've seen it you know what I'm talking about. My theory is that when he makes that face, it's really just a distraction while he's taking care of ninja business going on behind our backs. Oh, what a guy.

He also has what is referred to as a "Fish Patch". It's the new thing. Spread the word.

P.S. Who should I do next? Kieran, Anis or Morgan?

Cartoon Series: Fish

It's Fish!...FAT FISH! I'm sorry, I just couldn't resist. I was going for Pac-Man with fins and a "Fish Patch". The real Justin Fisher cartoonification will be posted tomorrow... Assuming I finish coloring it.

Oh, and if you haven't noticed, I kinda gave up my "post a picture everyday" thing and am now doing the "post a picture whenever I feel like it" thing. This will still mean lots of pictures, just less crappy ones.

Cartoon Series: Mackenzie

Note: The pics have been removed because they sucked. See the edited version here.

Anyhow, for those of you who don't know her, she's a cool/artsy/indie/weird in a good way kinda girl. She's very colorful, inside and out, and is about a bajillion times better artist than myself. The (admittedly very lame) joke to this one is that she often comes back from art class with charcoal all over her fingers, cause no matter how many times she washes her hands it just won't come off.

Oh and Fish, you're next :P

[EDIT: Changed it a bit... MacKenzie just doesn't look quite right without a smile haha. Also, more hair looks slightly better... something is still seems a little off but it looks better :P]

Party Panda!!


Yup... This is something I drew on my binder... it wasn't originally supposed to be a party panda but I screwed up a bit and so that's what I turned it into. Yep... I still haven't scanned anything new...

Oh, and if by chance Mackenzie's reading, I tried cartoonifying you, and I have the lines done, but I still need to color it. Tomorrow maybe? In any event you're kinda hard to draw haha...

Random Stuff


Sorry, nothing real cool today, just some random sketches. I've been too buzy/lazy to scan some stuff recently. Anyhow, I'll hopefully have another cartoon person made tomorrow.
