while my site was down

My site was down for a couple of days due to some complications with it moving to a faster server. Those happened to be days I doodled in.

Twin, getting really stoned, on a day when all I seemed to be able to do was to get stoned and doodle my characters. I fucked around a lot with my collection of art brushes here.

Yesterday was Jack Kirby’s birthday. I saw a LOT of fan-art of his characters that day. Me, I just did a blatant style rip doodle. Probably needs some metallic leg bands to be honest but whatever, this was like ten minutes.

Continuing style test for that vampire thing I’ve been kicking around. Yeah, I think it works. Someday I’ll actually do a short story about her. Someday. In my copious free time.

Also I finally spent some time fixing the style for Five Glasses of Absinthe. Now it’s using my horizontally-oriented comics theme, with different css to make it, um, not horizontal and stuff. There’s still some stuff that needs tweaking but it looks a hell of a lot better than it did for a while.

I’ve been thinking about that vampire lady who lies a lot, and thinking about the look for her world. Basically it’d be doing the same trick Frank Miller does in the Sin City books – stark B&W noir, plus a key color for one character – except each vampire would have a key color of their own. I’d put more effort into it than this but maybe not necessarily too much more.

It’s got something like three years to simmer, I can afford to dabble for a while.
