Photoshop effects - Blur






Apologies about duplicating images in the last few comics. I know it's lazy but it's the only way I can get to bed before midnight.

Vend Dammit!

I love changing drawing styles.






Confession: I have done this. The vending machine at work has motion sensors at the bottom of the drop so that if nothing falls down, you get your money back. With enough abuse, you can get 2 for 1 deals on particular items. Bags of chips will get snagged by other bags and there's just something wrong with the cookie dispenser. And yes, I have gotten 2 of an item I would never have purchased by itself.

Hi, I'm Larry...

I'm getting shaggy and I've been wearing an old knit blue cap during the winter. Anyone that was raised by TV in the 80s knows what this is. Hell, it was even referenced on an episode of Tiny Toons.



In other news, I'm considering quitting my job and going for an MFA at MCAD. Any suggestions from anyone on this matter in terms of putting together a portfolio, paying for housing while going to school, etc, are gladly welcome.

Blue World contd.

Started out working on another comic idea and it turned into a Blue World comic. What a world. Two influences on the art in this one - 1) Simpsons and 2) Foxtrot by Bill Amend.





The original idea stopped at the character design for the priest character. I was trying to keep the art style of the first comic, but he kept looking like the guy from the gun shop. The conversation was much different and the use of the one word note cards was a new one. Anyway, I need to sleep.

Andrew, good luck with abandoning your flock in Philly and focusing more on your personal pursuit of happiness!

It's a sign.



A little something for my desk at work.

Edit: Okay, maybe this was a little inside. My boss called me into a conference room (because we all have cubicles) to discuss my training when she mentioned that there have been numerous complaints about my reading webcomics while at work. I pointed out that this is what I do on my lunch break, during which many people hover around my desk to give me stuff to do. So my boss suggested I display a sign while I'm at lunch so that there isn't any more confusion.

I am so pleased with how this turned out.
