Samurai v Knight

This feels like it's missing something, but I don't know what it is.

It's probably the lack of a background, but clearly it doesn't bother me enough to do something about it.

Hunter's Nap

I'm pretty damned happy with this, so it's important I don't look at it for too long lest I start to hate it. That's the usual routine.

EDIT: re-uploaded with minor changes.
He looks a little like Ezio Auditore, but that is perfectly alright since Ezio is a goddamn badass.
Notice I expertly avoided having to draw hands? Avoiding things that I need to practice is my speciality.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzap!

Why have I never done a Harry Potter drawing?

Drew this yesterday and today for my cousins who love some Harry Potter.
What else have I been not drawing? It's not Superman, because he's lame. A character with one weakness can't possibly be interesting. Every single challenge has to involve that one thing. A Lord of the Rings picture? Yes! Then it's decided; tomorrow is Tolkien-time. Also bin night?

EDIT: Wallpaper size has been requested.

An update to get that Skyrim one off the top of the page

Just finished this for DSPR. I'm not quire sure how Rob feels about me posting it here before he's written a post to accompany it over HERE, but I'm going to assume it's fine.


Rob came up with this idea, by the way. And if you have no clue what's going on, then you haven't seen this:


But now you have. Luckily, my blog doesn't have like 150,000 readers so nobody will know it was here first.

EDIT: 164,833 readers.

The Shout of Music

SOME SAY that I have too much free time, and that I waste it making pictures like this.


It's Skyrim-related, and if you don't get it I'm very disappointed in you. Especially Lisa.
But especially Bart.

On Doing Better


All my drawings up to this point have been flat and two-dimensional. Not in the witty I'm-joking-because-they're-pictures way, but in the way that they lack a sense of physical depth to the scene. It really pisses me off, and is one of the reasons I start disliking most of them as soon as they're finished. Today's (actually Tuesday's) drawing is my first real attempt at breaking out of that 2D habit I have. That and the other habit of drawing only the subject and background. I tried to make this more visually appealing by showing more happening than somebody/thing just standing there, and I think I did that.


In my mind, this is the first step in the journey out of The Gap.

Every day I'm bufferin'

Drawing of a joke between my brother and I from years ago. 

I can't remember why we were watching F1 speed boating. We were probably bored.
