I saw this on a tweet earlier and it hasn't left my browser since... every couple minutes I toggle over just to stare.

I KNOW, I KNOW, you're sick of me talking about friggin' Scott Pilgrim, and I am too, but I am OBSESSED with this song. I was trying to find a good copy of the full song but apparently embedding is disabled via youtube, but you can check it out yourself here.

It's been a while since I've posted a proper blog and an even longer time since I've posted anything artsy. It's not that I haven't been working on anything, I just haven't had much time for scanning and coloring but I managed to pic up a brush recently and tested some of my painting skills.

I actually did two paintings recently but sadly I only have a picture of one of them. The first I did was another monkey for my daughter's room. The second was for my cousin's son of a Pterodactyl but sadly I forgot to take a picture of it before I gave it away... I swear I should charge for these bad boys... oh well.



Since the arrival of The Kid I've been spending a lot of time on my butt with a bottle in hand, which leads to a lot of TV watching. The majority of the days have been spent watching Law and Order: SVU and Angel on Netflix, but at nights when Dad is awake we watch more cartoons, samurai movies, and whatever streaming MST3k episodes Netflix has available. So a few days ago The Kid and I watched the first season of Ducktales on YouTube. Between Mc Chris tweeting about it and the Launchpad McQuack ref in Scott Pilgrim I was subconsciously driven to it. I'd forgotten how great the show was... So I felt inspired to draw Scrooge McDuck!


(NOTE: I won't draw Disney characters in my own style. I've been conditioned to draw them as they have always looked... sorry if that's unoriginal for the fickle interwebbers)

Now that blogging is out of the way, I'm off to play more Pokemon and Warioware DIY, and find another Christopher Moore book to read.
(by the way go read one of his books too, they're good you won't be disappointed.)

BEEP-BEEP-BOOM!

Been a while

Ok, so I haven't posted a drawing in a while... I know, bad me! I've just been busy and haven't drawn anything I've felt like posting. So I'll talk about something instead. Last summer I came across a post, while surfing the net, about a movie being made inspired by a manga/anime. No I'm not talking about Scott Pilgrim again. No this movie, from what I've heard, actually inspired Scott Pilgrim. I'm talking about Beck (Mongolian Chop Squad). If you've heard of it awesome for you if not... DUDE, seriously!

The series is epic it covers the entire life from beginning to end of a bands journey to stardom, with some personal drama thrown in for spice.

Rather than give you the whole story why don't you just take it from me that it's good and watch it... If you really must know everything beforehand then here read the wiki.



Here's the trailer for the upcoming(?) movie.

AVATAR: The Last Airbender

In HIGH anticipation for the movie coming out this week I felt compelled to draw Aang from Avatar: The Last Airbender... Does it bother anyone else that the movie is not given the full title of the cartoon?
