Some more Sketch-A-Doodles, just like I said.. But, I'm gonna leave the Motor City Con Commentary for tomorrow, while I fix some of the pics that I took there to accompany it... Sooo, onto some sketches...

I just felt like mixin' different animal parts together to play around with... Create something that I can animate later, possibly... I should probably pullback with some of the detail though, NAW...


These are a couple of many different alien designs I've come up with, for an idea that's been floatin' around in my melon since High school... When I finally get to it, I should have a plethora of characters to pick from... That's the idea anyway... we'll see... I obviously went with a gross name like "Snotulon", cuz', well, look at it... It's gross...


It's name is "Snotulon"... I'm so juvenile... You Love It !!! Yes You Do...


Okay, so a couple of months ago I came across this site called,
  • www.mojizu.com
  • ... And it was in it's Beta stage, had a free membership, and involved character designs... How could I pass up such a temptin' offer??? Well, I couldn't, so I joined up... I'm signed on there as tmalo70, if you want to take a look at any new ones I'll post there, or look at any of the other Sooper Kick-Ass MOJIs by other talented Character designers... Below are the two that I've posted so far...

    This is Chuckles, my first MOJI... Funny, how he looks like he could be related to one of my CUCOs... Hmmm, interestin'...



    Then came ChickaDummy... A description of this little "it" is on their site... Check it out, you know you want too... C'Mon!!! Puh-Leeease...


    That's it for this time, hope you weren't too disappointed... Catch you all next time with some more of, whatever it is either of you call it, when you tell other to people to swing by, cuz' it's so FUN here...

    Later,

    SORRY!!! SORRY!!! SORRY!!! For the lack of updates... Between Work, Movin' into a new apartment, the Motor City Con, and a 4 day Migraine from HELL, it's been kinda' hard to post anything on this baby... But, I am back and will have a Grip O' Crap to post... Here's a few things just to start off with...

    This is a CD cover I did for a punk band from Vegas back in Janurary of 2000... They went by the name 3rd. Man In... They were a pretty good band, unfortunately they broke up and went their seperate ways... The band was represented by John Robinson of NakedMissingPersons, an old friend of mine... Who asked if I was interested in doin' a cover for their cd and possibly namin' the album... I jumped at the chance, since I had never done anything like it before... The next day I sat at my table stumped for hours... I started to get nervous, and started to clean-up my studio... I came across a bag of balloons and started messin' around with makin' animals (I suck at it), and I felt like the Dr. Moreau of Balloon Animals... I must've made like 15 mutant B.A.s... Then it hit me like a sack of nickels, and 30 minutes later I was done with pencils and inks...Lucky for me, they loved the cover and the name... It was pretty cool to watch people buyin' the cd at a couple of the concerts...



    Here's a color version someone did...


    And, some Digital Camera TomFoolery... It made me laugh while I was doin' it, so I thought I'd post it...


    Well, that's it for this post... Come back for some more Monday, where I will bombard you with loads of Sketch-A-Doodles, tell you about the con...

    Later,
