  2. scribblehatch replied to your photo: Mankey #056 Part of The Tim Burton x PKMN Project…

    I do like it, but don’t you think it’s a little off the beaten path of what even resembles a… monkey of any sort?

    I know what you mean, but Mankey doesn’t really look like a monkey. I could’ve made it look more like a conventional monkey, but since when has conventionality ever been Tim Burton’s priority?

    I try to stay close to the original Pokemon designs, but the translation process can get twisty-turny and wibbly-wobbly. Sometimes, a bit of convention is lost, and I think that’s something quite characteristically very Tim Burton.

    Of course, each re-design detail decision inevitably goes through my judgement which often is influenced by personal biases. So if you do disagree with my choices, than I deeply apologize.

This is for @celdee
Cel, thanks so much for the Baseman postcard! Sorry that it took so long for me to thank you, but I thought I had to express my gratitude far grander than a simple tweet. So I made an art thing for you as a thank you. Thanks for being awesome! :D

I drew a bit of inspiration from a print Cel gave me of goldfishes that she drew. Pretty cool stuff. 
Y’all should follow Celdee for awesome art. She’s also got a solo exhibit coming up this August that you guys should go to if you can. :) Skewer {2013}

This is my piece for ReDiscovery. It’s an art show inspired by Daft Punk over at Gauntlet Gallery in San Francisco. It’s a bit of a celebration for Random Access Memories. Opening reception is on May 18th, which I think is today. If you live near by, do drop by.
I’m pretty excited about the show actually. Some really amazing artists are going to be a part of it like Phil Noto, Andre De Freitas, and John Larriva. Great stuff! Should be an amazing show.
This is the first time I’m going to be a part of a show with a really amazing collection of artists, so I’m really stoked. 
BTW, this piece was inspired by Get Lucky. Aw yiss…

Silly comic I thought up while I was at the office. The office was out of creamer and I just can’t have coffee without a bit of milk or certain milk-like substitutes.  I needed the udder juice.

  11. A bit of fan art for Thunderpaw by @repoghost
Because it’s one of the best comics I’ve ever seen on the Interwebs. Y’all should go read it. It’s gorgeous and I love it.This was just supposed to be a late night Twitter doodle, but I kind of liked how it was turning out. I’ve started posting late night, random doodles on my Twitter. 
It’s almost 2:30 AM. Goodnight. A bit of fan art for Thunderpaw by @repoghost

  12. I like to keep all my bejeezus contained in one place.

Based on a stupid conversation I had with my brothers about language. Haha! Anyway, quickly drawn comics for Free Comic Book Day! Hooray!
Ok. Bye.Edit: Apparently, it’s spelled bejesus. And is an Irish expression of surprise. Ok. I like to keep all my bejeezus contained in one place.

  13. Hi Tumblr. It’s 4 AM where I am. Having trouble sleeping so I doodled for a bit. I post doodles on Twitter. It’s private though. Mostly because I like to whine a lot about things. But occasionally I post doodles.

    Anyway, I drew a vaguely Asian girl, which almost turned into a Velma. And then I turned her into a Velma anyway.

    Also, my actual computer is in the shop. It was overheating pretty badly. I’ve been using my brother’s iMac for a while. But Imma need a decent laptop for my internship, so I had to have it fixed up. I’m mostly using this computer for mostly work. Work. So much work…

    I should sleep.

    Blegh.

    Also, my heart goes out to the people of Boston. I just found out about the news on Twitter. Stay safe everyone.
