Animation Drawings



Okay, so the story goes like this: for the past 8 or so months I have, among many other tasks, have been working on an extensive hand drawn animation. These films involve several thousand illustrations and take a long time to produce. In fact after 3 quarters of a year I’ve yet to actually make anything move. So under the mental duress of a mounting pile of un-photographed stills, in essence a movie lying dead waiting for the resurrection, I cracked. Putting the detailed and tedious work aside I grabbed a pile of scrap paper and decided to make this “flip book”. The goal being to see what I can make, start to finished film, in one day. Well the drawings were no problem but the transfer to video stretched out for three days before I got what I’ve posted above. The primary, if not only, reason for the extended work period seemed to be my slow learning curve on the software. I’m doing my best but I am terrible with computers.  At any rate the film is up and I think I could cut the post way down next time. With a tight ship and functioning computer I am confident I could produce shorts much better than this on a regular basis. Animation is fun.

Weird Drawings Alternative Comics



Another long day at the drawing board, here's one of several panels I worked on today, must sleep, will post the rest tomorrow., I was trying to draw  an opening shot for my imagination cartoon series when suddenly I had a 7 panel montage explaining the city and it's tribulations. One day turns into two then three, multiplying uncontrollably, and so do the drawings.

Weird Stories Weekly Webcomics!

HEY APATHY! Free Webcomics

After a grueling battle and brief moment’s recuperation, the two weird assistants finally replace the dreaded banker. Really late finishing last week’s comic for various reasons that I need not share. At any rate, I went ahead and finished the next few pages to make up for it, promising to be on time for the next few weeks at least. More Comic Book Art

Weird Tales and Online Comics




A monstrous plant, an elevated city, the amorphous glob macroverse all merely precursors to the penultimate alien invasion!!! Read the 13 Stories, Forbidden tales of the impending apocalypse! Or at least enjoy the illustrations. I still haven’t edited the stories yet and things are pretty messy over there. Nevertheless it was necessary, as part of my new years website clean-up, to make some adjustments and take the stories out of the NEW WORKS section and give them a page of there own. As if I didn’t already have enough on my plate as it is. Well you just go wherever the inspiration takes you and I really enjoyed re-presenting these weird tales online over the past few days, plus I’m not one to leave things unfinished. Feeling a little bit of computer-burn out after hours of posting put was really digging the new calligraphy and illuminated text so I figured I’d share it here too. New WebcomicsTomorrow
