"Hello. Allow me to introduce myself. I am the monster in Jeremy's mind. I just wanted to let you know that he won't be posting much to his blog this week, as I have locked him in a closet and demanded that he toil away on REAL work. Also, any silly warm up drawings that he does will be fed to him as a snack. Thank you for understanding my efforts to make him grow up. Now get back to work."
Well, this is how it turned out. To be honest, I am not happy with it since I really ran out of time. I had to cut many corners and leave a lot unfinished. The transforming pyramid needs more texture, as do the rest of the characters. I need to learn to either give myself more time, or choose simpler scenes. Or get better at doing art.
Farmer warm up. 
Spent a little time on my Drawergeeks entry last night. I have a lot to do and only one night to do it in...
I thought I had better scribble out an idea for this week's Drawergeeks topic, "Cleopatra." I have a few gags I would like to put in here, but I will have to only go as far as time allows. 
Here is a the logo for the moment. I like to sketch these out to set a tone for the series.
This is a bit of a style test. I want to do the story in black/white/gray tones, with a pop of color here and there. Color will mean something in this story.
And this was a style idea for one of the characters. I know I want them to be simple... almost "muppet like." I think there will be some growth on this phase, but it is always fun for me to see what my first pass was.
Finishing off the week with another cowboy doodle. Hopefully everybody has a great weekend.
I went and saw "3:10 To Yuma" last night, so that put me in a bit of a cowboy mood. I really enjoyed the movie. A bit of a gut punch... but good.
If you buy my VHS entitled "Becoming A Better Artist Through Karate", you will also receive a free gift set of throwing pencils. For a limited time I am also offering my new paperback book, "Sparring: A Chance To Touch Girls" absolutely free!
The crowd gasped. While the "Rear Seated Cruncha Muncha with an Ankle Twist" move was legal, it was widely frowned upon.
"Buddy... you reckon we oughta pull him outta that there ant pile now? I think he got skeert nuff. He aint gonna call you yella no more" 
"Where is Mom with those snacks?"
"C'mon sis, smile so he doesn't make us say cheese again!"
"After hours of trying to get the Daddy creature to respond to basic joystick commands, our hero nodded off."
Because I have a sickness, and am always doodling something. About an hour in Photoshop.
"As the circus tent went up in flames, the never reliable Clown Fire Squad continued to drive in circles and crack jokes that featured the punchline "Because it's on fire."
