Apparently, I need to post something here to appease my self assumed taskmaster and critic. About a week ago, I sat down at the computer to do the inking on a comic that I had finished sketching a day or two prior. The graphics tablet did not work. I checked the batteries, and reinstalled the software, but the thing was dead. I sent it back, but haven’t been credited yet. Even when I do, I doubt that I will be getting the same one again. I need to save up and get the real deal instead of trying to be cheap.

This is what I want, in case someone, like the person who keeps calling me a lazy bastard, wanted to take up a collection and get it for me. Otherwise, STFU>FO.

Otherwise, here is more old art, not re-done digitally.

Filler Material

I am trying to get used to using the graphics tablet, and narrow down an art style. Once I have a character reference sheet that I am happy with, I should be able to produce these things faster. In the mean time, here is a filler. I drew this way back in 1997 in a sketch pad, using a comic book page as reference. I am much better at drawing from a source picture instead of my imagination. As part of getting used to the tablet, I scanned in the drawing and then re-inked and digitally colored it. So, to take the place of a comic, here is old art.
