Time for New Icons!
Awh hell yeah! New icons! armaina did this for me out of the blue after we hung out at CTcon! Thank you so much! I also have a new default icon, from a drawing Conrad did for me while he was watching the table for me also-at-CTcon.

I just got back to my parents place from the new apartment Brooklyn-- John and I spent the whole dang day cleaning (again) to prep for Saturday. Finally, finally, finally we're going to be finishing this move. I miss everyone terribly and can't wait for us all to be back together again. Additionally, we did get a pretty sweet place.

Hope you like dumb art, because I scanned in a bunch of dumb art!

So, with the J*W shipments, Ananth and I have come to the realization that people really like quirky personal touches on things, like when addresses are hand-written (which has become nearly impossible for us to do :/ ). For a long while, Ananth and I were sticking freebie postcards in with packages, but the stack I had with me ran out, so I started writing little messages. Then I started just doing straight-up doodles. I don't know how long I can keep this up, (and it probably won't be long), but people have really enjoyed them. Which is nice!


For a while when we first started shipping prints, I was drawing like 40 maw doodles at a time to send with packages. I had to stop because things got really hectic and doing that many drawings gets REALLY time consuming. But it's nice to send people things they weren't expecting. I've since moved on from maws to goofy animals! And Chewbacca!


I started losing steam, so I started going through the alphabet. X is for X-men!


This is probably the greatest thing I have ever drawn.


Although this might be a close second.


... I'm not sure why I scanned this in. On the bottom there, you can see prep sketches for that terrible guest comic I did for Questionable Content. There's also a sketch of a statue on the Brooklyn Museum, which I'd prefer you pay attention to.


And my thumbnail for the QC comic. OH NO NOW YOU WILL KNOW ALL MY SECRETS


Círran you are hard to draw! But you are such a nice a guy, I don't feel so bad about it anymore. North is also there.


SH--SHUT UP, I'LL DO WHAT I WANT i love you guys


I drew straight with a sepia brush pen and doodled on top of it with a pen. But then I scanned it in in b/w, so you can't even tell anymore. Also there a drawing from memory of Fone Bone? I--I MET JEFF SMITH AGAIN AT SDCC, DID I MENTION THAT? M-MAN, HE MIGHT JUST BE THE NICEST GUY IN THE WORLD.


EVERYONE IS BORED.
No one is ever not bored.
North, Dhio, why don't I ever draw you guys with clothing. You guys do wear clothing, don't you?


Some of these guys look so dumb. Sorry guys, that I drew you so dumb.
Sometimes I have ambitions that I might be able to draw a sheet of heads as fluid and gorgeous a davario. But that is just a pipe dream. I mean, look at this shit. aagh so nice.


Josephine! I'd forgotten about you! I need to figure out where she fits in, in the scheme of everything. I love my dandelion girl.


Whenever I feel down, I watch movies of Maru. Apparently he's won a bunch of YouTube Japan awards! Also, I suggest checking out his owner's blog, she puts all of the entries in adorably simple (and simply adorable) English.


YOU SHOULD LOVE HIM BACK


but it's what I do beeestt


1.) Conrad told me to draw "Zangief as a woman" at CTcon
2.) So I did
3.) I didn't really remember how to draw Zangief
4.) Also I couldn't remember how to spell his name

... ... ...

So can I ask you guys a hypothetical question? If I put in a pitch for a figurine to Patch Together, would anyone be interested in purchasing it? It'd need 50 preorders to be made, and will probably cost $30-$50 per order. I'd probably do a Maw to start off with.

I got missmonstermel's Foo Dog a bit back, and it is excellent quality. These guys do excellent work. Also: I want a maw figurine.
