I'm sure better artists don't need to do this, but I'm who you're stuck with at LBFA for the moment, so whaddayagonnado?

Occasionally, I'll misjudge things and have drawn too much or not enough. If I haven't drawn enough, I have to try to fix it with my tablet in Photoshop, but if I've drawn too much, I curse myself for the wasted time and move on.

Here are two examples from a recent strip where I drew more than you ended up being able to see in the finished comic.




More of this kind of thing to come, I'm sure.

Well, I don't feel quite so horrible about having to draw Jet Jaguar and CM Punk separately and putting them together in Photoshop for the birthday thing I drew you... I think.

There is no part of this thread that is not fanfreakingtastic

Sorry I've been forgetting to do more of this.

SO, hey, are you ready for this?

I assume there will be no feet?

Can.Not.WAIT to make a new "schplagong" joke.

Here's some low-quality, camera-phone in-progress pics from the live-art thing we co-presented this weekend in Dallas.

That is unreasonably cool.

You won't be able to see all of this art in today's strip because of all the words on top of it, so I thought I'd post it sans word balloons.

Something about the art got me thinking about Mission Hill so this happened.

First time trying to do a strip all digital, so I thought I'd share my "inks" for it.

Big difference? No difference? What do you think?
