Warcraft Comic

I submitted this to the World of Warcraft comic contest. Since Warcraft is my current gaming obsession, it only makes sense that my two worlds would eventually collide. I've been planning to do a running comic about one of my characters, but just never seem to have the time. So I plopped this one out the other day afer an evening of killing Furbolgs in Winterspring. Keep your fingers crossed that I can at least get an honorable mention.

Give Blood

Word of Mouth

Good Aim

Front Side Takers

Guernica

Kasha

This is an unused panel I drew of Kasha, one of the mahjongg ladies from the previous post. For some reason the word "hoary" comes to mind.

Mahjongg Ladies

In the Chowder board I'm currently working on, a group of ladies come over for their weekly mahjongg match with Truffles. This is a pan I drew of them all around the table. Truffles will be in the foreground.

Salivation

I've recently finished my Chowder pilot. Cartoon Network requires me to make two more "development" storyboards before they can decide if it should be a series. "Development" means a full storyboard but at a lower pay rate than my day job. The only people they don't seem to require this from are those who are famous but have no animation experience, which usually means you'd get a series pickup with no pilot or animatic or script or finshed character designs. Makes sense.

So I'm almost finished with board one of two. This is an unused panel where Chowder is drooling over the thought of some food. I chucked it because I liked it better when he's not smiling.

Fred Fredburger T-Shirt

I was asked to design a shirt for this year's Comic-Con featuring Fred Fredburger, a guest character that I voice on Billy & Mandy.

These are the three designs I made.



The winner is the last one, with him repeating his name over and over. Be sure to pick it up in San Diego this July! They'll be giving them away at the Cartoon Network booth.

Goodbye to Geri

This is queen receptionist Geri Kelly's last week at Cartoon Network before she answers the seductive call of retirement in the desert. I was asked to draw a picture of her in clown regalia on a golf course for a goodbye card. I'm not terribly good at flattering caricatures; somehow I always imagine my drawings making people cry. (I did my best, Geri.)

Alan Bodner is painting the final version of this sketch. I hope he keeps the ashes on the boobs. Be sure to say goodbye if you know her: gerikellyca @ aol.com. She'd really appreciate it.

We'll all miss you, Highpockets.

Turdcraft

One of my big obsessions of the past year has been the game World of Warcraft. So Ms. Burgerlog herself drew me this. Check out the rest of her terrific turds at http://burgerlog.blogspot.com.

Armpit Creatures Part 2

Armpit Creatures

Last year, a friend of mine asked me to do some sketches of an armpit creature for an advertising campaign he was working on. The hard part, he explained, was making something that looked more like an armpit and less like a vagina. After multiple tries, I just started drawing vaginas.

Parasimian Ecto-Trooper

I was toying around with the idea of using this guy as the Nerd Armada mascot. Notice the "N A" on his shirt. In the end, he's just an expendable trooper. Poor fellow.

Sweater Comic

This is the last of the Nickelodeon Magazine SpongeBob comics I did.

Another SpongeBob Comic

Cologne Comic

Another SpongeBob comic for Nickelodeon Magazine. The composition on the first page is a bit awkward. I'm trying to get better with that.

Plankton Comic

This is a nine-page SpongeBob comic I did a few years ago for Nickelodeon Magazine.

"What Day Is It?" Comic

This is a two-page SpongeBob comic I did for Nickelodeon Magazine a few years ago.

SpongeBob Bulletin Board

This is another piece I did for Nickelodeon Magazine. The idea is it's one of those bulletin boards you see at Starbucks, but it's at the Krusty Krab.

SpongeBob Dance Party

This is a two-page spread I illustrated for Nickelodeon Magazine a few years ago. It was a puzzle where you had to match album art with the dancer. I just supplied the black and white art; they did the coloring. There will be more Nick Mag art coming over the next few days.

The Albino Rabbit

The Happy Leper

Old Comic

Back in college, I did a daily cartoon strip for the school paper. It was a pretty good training ground for what I do now, and it let me get most of my really dumb ideas out of my system. This particular one helped me land my job on SpongeBob, so they said. I must have drawn it somewhere between '92-'94.

Demonik

Time to start dredging up some oldies. This was doodled back in '98. I don't even know what's going on in half this picture. Serpent hand? Check. Peg-leg demon? Check.

Whoops

Spin-Boosh

This robot was inspired after watching Giant Robo, Getter Robo, and Mazinkaiser.
