Quick am doodle of a ruined NYC. The rising sun makes a nice contrast to post-disaster city scene. I’m listening to Bryan Taylor’s Transformers Prime soundtrack and it’s put me in an epic mood. Do your best at everything today and be kind.

My class reunion is this weekend and while looking for a senior photo I found this graduation photo of my best friend Kevin and I. Kevin passed away a few years ago but we remained good friends until he passed.

I felt like I needed to draw folding chairs so where better than in a church basement? If I’d have been on the ball is have added a folded ping pong table somewhere.

Pre work sketch of a airport terminal. It’s good practice for an artist to carefully observe your surroundings for future reference. Figure out how things go together. Than make drawings of environments from your imagination but use your observations to inform your drawings to give them more verssimitude.

Pre-work page of car doodles. I haven’t seen Fury Road (I know, I know) but Mad Max & Road Warrior had a big influence on me as a kid. One of the first paintings I did as a kid was a copy of a Mad Max ad I had clipped from the newspaper. We used to play a strategy game called Car Wars that was all about vehicular combat and my first car had a sticker that said I was a member of the North American Autoduel Association.

Doodle of a cat. I drew this while waiting at the doctors office. This weekend was busy, but didn’t feel productive. I went to the doctor on Friday, I am getting sick again and I want to get a handle on this early. Saturday Michelle had a headache and we went to a 50th anniversary party for a friend. They played ‘50s music and had good punch, but it wiped us both out so we bailed on a birthday party for my nephew. Too much energy & noise. Sadly I didn’t get near as much comic drawn as I needed. I should have been done with this project. If I wasn’t a co-owner I’d be fired for sure. But the writer is understanding and the work looks great and that what matters at this point. Still I feel like every line is caring stone, it should be faster. Hopefully this is a sign I’m in an 'improving stage’.

Quick sketch of a character called The Night Demon published by Champion Comics. I saw the character online and thought it was a cool design. I don’t know anything about the character, but I’m picturing him like The Shadow, a mercy less crimefighter.

weirdellis: Went back to my horror short and regained some resolution, made better titles, got a btter render in BW from iMovie. It wasn’t Quicktime Pro’s fault about the quality fall off. I was having to do end arounds on the titles and soundtrack that eroded the video. Here’s the new better version of The Hobo’s Bindle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQoRSRPBD8w Ellis tweaked the movie I was in a little.

I miss the old International House of Pancakes. We used to drive to Florida to see my Grandma when I was a kid and this was a place we only saw on the road. Where the current IHOP is bland and generic, the old version had sweeping, pitched ceilings lined with dark wood. Instead of a upscale McDonalds, it seemed like a temple dedicated to the art of the pancake.

aapstra: Next Five by Lissa Treiman. I’ve posted Next Five’s before. It’s this great story game /exercise created by Emma Coats. You take a photo that you find online (Flickr used to be a good source) and treat it as if it’s the first frame of a sequence. Then you make up the next five shots. You can find the photo Lissa started with here. http://ift.tt/1KaIAbF cool idea!

Sketchbook doodle of a girl I sat next to at a panel at NYCC last year*. She was drawing a webcomic about talking muffins. I think she’s an editor at Marvel now. *she wasn’t actually smoking when I met her, but she smelt of tobacco.
