Monsters!

Posted on October 8, 2012 by doodlehoose

This week’s post is inspired by my oldest son. He loves monsters and for the past two weeks we have been having a blast making them out of construction paper. I cut out an odd shape and he places eyes in an unexpected place. Then he finishes it off with a drawn mouth. They are so much fun. The best part about a monster is that you can’t get it wrong and the colors can be anything you want. These ones aren’t as much fun as the ones we did together because he didn’t get to stick googley eyes on them, but I hope that you enjoy.

A Gritty Pic for a Gritty Flic

Posted on October 1, 2012 by doodlehoose

Okay this is several weeks of scanner issues now and I’m going a little bonkers. I have loads of work to do for school and I haven’t been able to do my at home IT. Uninstalling and reinstalling put’s the scanner up, but for some reason I can see it without accessing it. Ugh.

So this week’s post comes from the past. I scanned this rough after watching one of my guilty pleasures- The Long Kiss Good Night. Starring Samuel L. Jackson as a man caught up in a plan that is bigger than him and the incredible Geena Davis as the female version of Jason Bourne. It really is like Bourne with the roles reversed and it is full of explosions, spy stuff and loads of violence.

It came from the FUTURE!!!

Here’s something that I worked on that didn’t really work.  I wanted it to have a goopy, glisteny look… but it’s sorta flat.

Well I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled my scanner and done some basic troubleshooting, but still no luck. So this week’s post comes to you from my vector skills. It’s another idea for Threadless but I haven’t finished it enough to submit it yet.

Digging deep into the rainy day fund

Posted on September 10, 2012 by doodlehoose

This week’s post goes back some. This has not been a particularly easy week and the drawings that I made to post aren’t appearing now because my scanner is giving me trouble.

These two images were created with technique I haven’t mastered yet, but they were already scanned so you get to see em anyway. I drew the images with black ball point pen then rendered them with washable markers. Then I put them in the sink. Fun.

Classy Cashier

Classy Cashier

Just the girl next store, working in the next aisle.

 

This one started out life Black & White, which is why there’s such a heavy black background.

The cashier also had a second arm that didn’t really work.   (To be honest, that’s the real reason for the black bubbles)

I wanted to give this one a bland color scheme, to sorta highlight the work-a-day feel.  And I do like the one arm that actually made the cut, it’s freckled.
