sick day

hey everybody, it looks like this’ll be my last post before christmas. I was planning to get something snazzy together for you but I’ve had the crazy lurgy since saturday and I’m only just out of bed and back to shuffling around, so you’ll have to content yourselves with my favourite cetacean:

see you next year and stuff! I am going to smear snot on everything, I hear green is the new black?

sleep deprivation is sexy, yes?

no it’s not

This time yesterday I finished a week of 8pm - 8am nightshifts, I’m not really sure what day it is any more?

I’m about to get an introduction to the world of staying awake 8pm-8am without the aid of alcohol. This is going to sting, yes? ah well, here’s a sad pirate cowgirl clown:

that is all. I’ll be back next week with some christmas card shenanigans if I survive the week

back in the day - found an old sketchbook

well I re-discovered this old sketchbook for the zillionth time the other day, it would seem that back in my first year of uni I managed to take a very short break from getting hammered and did a few charcoal drawings…

hoo boy

- well things have been a bit busy lately, all traces of a drawing schedule at home here have been tracked down and sprayed with bleach in the face. Especially after my last two weekends have been spent covering the entire flat in a thick layer of dust and pesto* but it’s okay, through being completely antisocial in my breaks at work I’ve managed to get some drawing done. I’m not sure what they say about the state of my heid though: (more…)

whoops?

I’m still alive! It seems to be three weeks since I last posted? I think the new job has kidnapped my brain. And as well the new flat needs much working on - I got to rip up the laminate floor and tear out the crazy formica cupboard, which makes things look a shitload better. No photos though because my camera has slipped into an unexpected coma, and new batteries were no help at all - who knows where I can find a good camera doctor in Edinburgh? No sketchy goodness either just yet, the tiny scraps of spare time I have get spent on a couple of projects that won’t be ready for a good while yet. Oh wait! I was at the ZOO! There was a RHINO’S ARSE!

Mutiple rhino arse off the starboard bow cap’n! I’ll post some more of the photos tomorrow when I’m less deliriously tireds, see you then fellas

woo and hoo?

Well I’ve had four hours sleep in two nights and it seems to be half past eleven already so I’ll make this quick - the incredibly irresponsible Evan Dahm of Rice Boy (link is down the side) is making a bit of a habit of throwing competitions. This one is to colour a picture. Well I’ve never needed an excuse to break out the crayons, and here is the result:

this is the main reason I prefer paints to using the computer - it’d take me forever to get that effect with pixels, and I know you can just go back and fix any bad pixels but I’m pretty sure messing up is half the fun.Sleep for me! I’ll see you guys when I’m feeling a bit less weird in the head

photos this time?

I’ve had an awesome day, which I mostly spent mucking around with the camera and the scanner:

I’m fairly sure I’ve got the groundwork for a pretty nifty little project all sorted, which might well involve the eggjar!

yarrrrrr!

Has it been a year already?

- So how is everybody? Good! Today I asked myself ‘what’s the logical progression from a ninja pirate?’ and found this to be the answer:

the dreaded pizza ninja!
