Doodle Puddle

Because tea tastes the best out of giant teacups. FACT.

Space-capades

Oh my glob, it's been so long! I lately got an unexpected boat-load of free time so I've been working on this story idea I've been developing. Basically its about tween girls having adventures in space. So basically its all I ever wanted in a story growing up. 

Click to embiggen! So this is the whole crew, left to right, Willoughby St.James (Will) - Pilot, Roxy Romero (Roxy)- Captain, Aditya Asan (Atya)- First Mate,  MacKenzie McKracken (Mac) - Engineer, Thalia - Navigator

Here I had Will smoking a cigarette originally because every time I want to draw a character as a badass I give them a cigarette. But I was like OH WAIT, you can't have tweens smoking cigarettes so I'll have her holding....a parakeet. GOOD SAVE.

 Atya's the brainy one

 Mac is the techy one with a robot penguin! His name is Gerard.

And Thalia has a 6th sense for interstellar travel. Which somehow is associated with glowy crystals. I mean obviously.

So yeah, I've got a story outlined but I'm such a god-awful writer I don't know what to do with it.  And its not even that I'm bad at writing its just so boring and I would much rather be designing increasingly elaborate space-sneakers. Who wouldn't!

Smokes + Stripes

Been watching quite a bit of mid-century period drama lately. Too bad smoking is so bad for your stating alive, it looks pretty cool.  Just Say No, kids!

"Nerds"

Doodled this while waiting for feedback at work. Anyone else noticed how the "girl who is a nerd but is secretly cute in paint-splattered overalls and a ponytail"trope of the late 90's has been replaced by "girl who is a nerd but is secretly cute in oversized glasses and bangs".  You can't fool me, girl! You are cute under there, I can see it!

Other people's nostalgia

I might be getting on the Buffy the Vampire Slayer train a little late, I realize. Whatever, Netflix still wants me to watch it all. I can feel it!

Also, man, I miss late 90's early 2000's fashion. Bring back the platform sneaker!

The Princess and the Ogre

Just rustling up some old concept art I did a while back from a script I came up with in college. We had to come up with a TV show and write the first episode. And I really liked what I ended up with! Too bad I hate writing. Its just like talking. But much much slower. And more boring. And less interactive.
ANYWAY. So this really ugly princess is gets kidnapped and cast across the kingdom by her husband to be, in a bid to inherit the throne without having to marry said princess. And she spends the series fighting her way back to the throne through the kingdom's many dangers, with the help of her trusty ogre companion. I mean in retrospect she's basically Daenerys Targaryen but I didn't know that at the time.
And there is a cupcake boy for some reason.

Percy Jackson!

And the Sea of Monsters!
I am perfectly aware this book series is for tweens. And yeeeeeet....I have read them all. And am well into Heroes of Olympus.  Whatever! I'm an adult I do what I want.
