WHY I HATE ROBOTS

In the spirit of Christmas, I discovered some old scribble on the subject of the title. Worth a rescue.

1. THIS ROBOTS MADE ME BUY DRINKS...WITH A GUN!


2. THIS ROBOT DUPED ME INTO EATING MUD


3. THIS ROBOT WOULDN'T LET ME WATCH TV


4. THIS ROBOT STOOD ON MY FOOT


5. THIS ROBOT MADE FUN OF MY "TINY FEET"

BAD LION

A quick offshoot of tonight's project.
Had this random character (sort of me, or at least the horn-rimmed specs character I appear as in the paper) and a Lion.
SO here they are together in a new situation.
May change the lion's experssion to more of a scowl.
I wouldn't like a rap on the snout for bad behaviour.

TRON: LEGACY vs THE MATRIX

What i says on the tin. Well, not a proper vs, but you get what I mean
Had to do these pretty sharpish due to the original concept going down the toilet so some goofy vector cartooning saved the day. Blah Blah Blah

Flattering if self regarding nonsense

Well what do you expect. It's a blog after all.

Sooooo, an old friend recently posted on Facebook totally out of the blue, that he was after 14 years, going to put some postcards I painted for his 21st into a frame.
And he posted the link to the pics he had scanned at hi-res.
I was genuinely honoured and flattered. Not only that he kept them, but to frame them as well.
It was also great to see them again, not only because two of them I disctincly remember creating but time and my crap memory put paid to knowing what av=ctually happened t them.So great to see them again.
I think the theme going off the tag on the bottom left of the frame was a riff on an advert that was on at the time. The ad was for lord know what, but was definitley serious pofaced and probably soundtracked by something like the awful M-Peoples "Search For The Hero Inside Yourself". (Okay, having just written that I just searched youtube and it is indeed that song and the ad that inspired my cards.Click here for evidence)

Anyway. Here's the art. And thank you Ben. It was and is a pleasure.

Go over to the EXCELLENT parka blogs for his reportage from this year's STGCC
http://parkablogs.com/content/artist-alley-sgtcc-2010
Particularly good is Wendy Chew and Maureen Seng aka http://kittifiedmeow under the banner PinUp Girls

Loved their stylised take on "good girl" art. Easily my favourite other than my good friend, well, good colleague anyway, Rocketraygun who had an excellent first time cherry breaking con.

Go over to his site http://rocketraygun.deviantart.com/ or rocketraygun.blogspot.com to see his work or check out how to buy his packed-to-the-seams-with-art goodness-at-an-astonishingly-good-price-artbook
