Are you there, God? It's me, Will Riker...

So, yeah, I redid my layout. Something about the generic blogger template I had before wasn't retarded enough for it to feel personal. I think this new look is juuuust retarded enough to say "Todd." I'm not quite sure what that image to the left is. I was browsing stock photography and found one I liked of a girl staring off across the ocean. The only problem was, she wasn't really staring at anything. Logically, I figured the only thing that could justify such intense interest on her part would be the ethereal, mystical apparition of Giant Commander Riker. I think witnessing that image every day and recently seeing The DaVinci Code has inspired me to write my own controversial religious mystery/thriller. You might want to avoid looking at my background now. It contains spoilers.

Not a whole hell of a lot to post right now. I have bunches of pages to scan, but I keep forgetting to bring them home from work. What a maroon. Right now, I'm trying to learn how to draw a male Japanese face. Ideally, I'd like to come upon a method for drawing Asian people that's more tactful and subtle than, say, slashes for eyes and karate poses. If any of you more observant and talented folks who may be reading this have any pointers, don't bogart that info. Puff puff, and pass. Thanks!











Wow, those really didn't scan very well. I should probably stop chopping lines of coke on my scanner bed, but the transexual hooker kept complaining about the razor nicks on her ass. Wakka wakka! I'LL BE HERE ALL WEEK!

    The top blue pen drawings look reasonably Japanese to me. The facial hair helps it a lot, I think. Pretty sweet. (I assume the rest of the drawings aren't supposed to be that same guy, yeah?)

    Are these character designs for this mysterious project you're working on?

    I dig the concept stuff. Is the "warmer" face exhibiting spider sense? Awesome. I think you should make a "business trip" out here and we could hang out at Japantown drawing all the old folks at the Japanese market.

    Did some order a giant plate of "You Suck!"? Of course when I say "You Suck!", what I actually mean is "Why must you flaunt your skillz like this"... it's either that or I have gas.

    Anyway, no tips on drawing Asian people... but I'd like to start seeing some sequential layouts... that or those drawings you keep forgeting to bring from work would be fine too.

    Oh... and that Riker/Beach image is classic. Funny stuff.
