The Strange of Artemus Foe - Steampunk Concept - one

So, I have decided to pursue this steampunk webcomic idea. Which is explained in a voicememo/youtube video below. I know I already introduced it but here’s some more concept art! If you can call it art. Concept doodles…but I had a blast…look forward to making this…with maybe a storyboard coming out sometime this weekend.

Part One – Post. Grunge. Punks. – ‘Band Geek’ (Webcomic)

Since I’m using a mouse to draw and am pressed for time here’s a typed up transcript of the dialogue.  I think I’m going to draw with pen and paper until I get a Graphics Tablet. Thanks for stopping by.

Suit Guy: And in this pocket is a pair of tickets, the sickest of merch!

Suburban Badass: Hey bruh, a ticket, a band can’t live off of ticket sales.

Suit Guy: Uh, so we’re just gonna be Yuppies and compare the virtues of our spending habits?

Suburban Badass: Yuppie?! You’re the one wearing a suit!

Suit Guy: Facepalm!

 

Post. Grunge. Punks. – Origin (Webcomic)

This little verbose atrocity seems to be what got the gears rolling for the ‘Post Grunge Punks’ idea. It was in an old sketchpad filled with stuff from various years. This was pretty recent though. March 2017, which is odd because normally things feel like they move too quick but this seems like it was forever ago.

Tile One – Narrator: What they think when I ask for better vocabulary and a more mature wardrobe…

Posh Life Guy:  “We have gathered on this occasion for levity. It is our aim to erupt in raccous laughter upon hearing a humorous quip.

Tile Two – Narrator: All I want is an improvement to THIS

Doushy 0′ Toole – (Wearing a T-shirt that says 84 hrs of Gaming) “Dude…”

Alan (Wearing a T-shirt that says Smelly Tee, because smelly T’s are the uniform of the early twenties douche.) “Like… yea….”

Tile Three: Narrator – Which would…

Alan: (Wearing a sensible button up and having discovered a razor) ” Why did we spend the last two decades trying to be Kurt Cobain? Hardy 1920’s farmer Cur with an entrepreneurial bent. Spiritual but grounded, we care but we don’t, because static…..”

Doushy O’ Toole: (Also wearing a sensible button up and looking uncannily like Thom Yorke) “A resource-rich nation creates a false sense of success, leading to a perpetual feeling of phony uselessness, that manifests as quirky bullshit. (Holy Shit. I’m Thom Yorke. )”

So basically I’m just slapping people with social commentary, right in the face, with no regard for subtlety. O well.

PGP - Band Geeks (Take Two)

My scanner is working! I just installed Linux Mint and things are super peachy. Which is just as well because I wasn’t getting along with the mouse today. So here’s a quick hand-sketched PGP episode.

I never did understand suit hatred.  So functional and elegant…but I guess not growing up in the Burbs means I’m just too soft to understand trv pain.

If you’re into this sort of thing and haven’t heard of these gentlemen well…

When I was a kid I recall going out to my friends Dacha with my drunken uncles. Potato cooking seemed so simple then. First you get properly pissed then you wrap the spuds in tinfoil and toss them in a fire by the river.

Gone are those halcyon days of gilded simplicity… as is my memory of how to cook a potato… so I did a search for it.

Apparently they explode…

That my decadent western friends is the 1337 hacker’s version of a summer cottage. I remember launching my first DOS attack from the turnip patch. Off to do some squats….

Post.Grunge.Punks. (Webcomic) – Tim Pool is a Nut (pt.2) – The Timatree

Part one: Post.Grunge.Punks. (Webcomic) – Tim Pool is a Nut

Tim Pool is a skateboarding e-pundit and indie journalist. I had a theory about why he never takes off his beanie occur to me the other day and thought I’d turn it into a cartoon. I know I’m not David Revoy, but I really like ‘doodling out’ my more abstract visual ideas in Krita. And as such will make an effort to improve.

You can find Tim’s videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Timcasts

Part three is coming and I hope to make it less aesthetically grating.

Thanks for dropping by.
