Too Cool Scorpio

Here's a super awesome bad-ass scorpion I made out of wire.

I GOT BLISTAS ON MA FINGAS!

Phun with Photoshop

We had to do a reproduction, using photoshop's painting tools, of a famous work of art.
I, of course, chose the one with all the naked chicks.

Picking pockets on Abbey Road

For one project we had to create a mythological creature.

I used my own cat's head.

Anyone who's seen Bailey knows this isn't really that far off.

she's not fat, she's bubbilicious

Here's some stuff I worked on last year in Media Studies, or Art Fundamentals, or whatever the hell they're calling it this year.

Hannibal Montana

Cartoon I did for colour theory. Hannah Montana meets Silence of the Lambs. The most excruciating part about doing this was sitting through an episode of Hannah Montana for research.

Collage

Collage for colour theory class. I decided to do my all-time favorite comic book cover, Silver Surfer #4. Never having done a collage in my life, I figured it was easy and wouldn't take much time or effort. WRONG. Everyone else in the class was smart and stuck to relatively simple pictures. I ended up pulling an all-nighter or two just to get it done on time.

We had to do 4 different colour schemes. I was going to label which one is which but damned if I can remember. Sorry Clyde!

Here's the original:

WARNING: this one may melt your eyeballs

Thank Jebus for call centres

Hey, lookit, I gots me a blog!

People have been bugging me to show what I've been doing at school (NBCC Miramichi Animation & Graphics woooo!) so I thought a blog would be the easiest way. Plus Tara said I had to, and she's the boss of me.

First off I'd like to give thanks to all the call centres I ever worked at for giving me ample time to draw stupid little cartoons all day, and making me hate my life enough to finally get my ass back into school at the ripe old age of 34. And an extra special thanks to all the frustrated customers for providing an over-abundance of material to draw. I couldn't have made this stuff up if I tried.

And it wasn't just the customers. When I wasn't plotting a way to fake my own death, I was being "entertained" by socially retarded coworkers, inept management, and outdated, faulty equipment. I actually worked at a call centre where the PHONES DIDN'T WORK.

Then the greatest day of my life arrived:

Fast forward 6 months and I'm 3000 bucks in the hole and drawing pictures of mashed potatoes. Go figure.
