The November Tampa Drink and Draw Meet!

The November meeting for the Tampa Drink and Draw (several weekends ago at this point) was a really great time. Here are the stupid drawings I did that weekend.

My friend Brent asked for everybody to draw him, so I drew him stabbing Hitler with an American Flag. He also asked I drew Conan O’Brien as I Dream of Jeannie, with Andy Richter as the Major. This is directly from a photo promotion for the show, with Jeannie in the Major’s hand. I really like both likenesses, although this image could use some inking.

The hipster fairy. When he shoots you with his bow, your shoes turn purple.

Sketchdump 3: Illustration Ideas

For a series of drawings/paintings called “Robot-Girl Army,” this is a ninja mermaid and a sharkbot. Going to be a lot of fun to paint this one up.

Some studies of Scott Pilgrim. I like my Stephen Stills, but I think my three Scotts need some work. I think the bottom right one is approaching the best. O’Malley’s style is pretty incompatable with my own. I’ll have to figure out how to properly pull it off.

I have had a crush on Samus Aran forever. I did this doodle inspired by Iron Man. I think it looks cool as hell, but I don’t know how I’m going to get a full illo out of it.

My stupid notes are visible on this one. This is Samus’s gun arm, as I drew it. It was supposed to be sitting on a table, having maintenance done to it. The SNES menu screen would have been hologrammed above the gun. I have no idea where I would fit that in, but I have to do that somewhere.

Found this character design for my D&D 4e barbarian. He’s a Warforged! I thought up the idea that he would have an axewound to the head, with grass growing through it (Warforged are made from stone, metal, and wood). The idea of a grass mohawk just made me smile. Then I got kicked out of the group for not wanting to talk about Sarah Palin at the table.

Sketchdump 2: Sexy Comic Character Design

Doing a script for a very dirty comic called Betty Binary. It’s sci-fi and very silly and I have fun whenever I work on it. This is one of the characters with the ridiculous name Stormi Jovian.

I don’t know why I have the motif of giving characters Archie comic-style names. I have a soft spot in my heart for Archie comics—but I do despise the cheesy books as well.

A sexy witch character, the main character’s foil, for a sort of science versus magic theme. I know, I’m a very deep writer. Look at the boobs I’ve drawn.

A second attempt at the witch character, this time making her look a little bit more alien. When I decided to go the more goth route, I changed her name from Sally Supernova to Sally Spookynova, which makes me laugh. I think the correct design is somewhere in between these two, or maybe something different all together.

Sketchdump 1: Sexy Girl Drawings

The sketch for my Hipster Vegan Waitress wallpaper, still available at my portfolio website. I like the cute little veggie icons at the bottom of the sketch.

I’m really pleased with the face on this girlie. I’ll probably try to replicate this sort of deer-in-the-headlights expression If I can manage.

The funny thing about this drawing is you can see my sketch marks—“Bigger! Make the boobies bigger!” The shame.

This was a portrait I drew of a girl in either Borders or Barnes and Noble. She wasn’t really topless, although that would give the bookstore a more party atmosphere.

Face I found interesting. Love her nose and the lip-biting smile she had.
