comics, jointed paper dolls and movie mockery

On last week’s Strip Search (a reality TV series about webcomics), the elimination comic challenge required the artists to make use of the themes “mystery” and “naughty.” I decided to try the challenge at home with jointed paper dolls. Long before I ever had sex myself, I saw it in movies and read about it in books. In […]

lampshade from paper circles (and an upcycled atlas)

I have a special bonus post for you today – a picture post detailing the process of making a lampshade out of a bunch of paper circles! The reason: For almost two years now, our living room lamp has been hanging bare, like a warehouse light, in desperate need of a lampshade. I’ve been meaning […]

zombie valentine

Alright guys, I have a different sort of valentine for you. It’s perfect for those with a love for intellect, puns, gummy candies and the drooling, shambling, gently oozing undead. I’m woefully not at all pro-level-awesome at digital drawing, but I still think this image turned out pretty cute, so I’m posting it as a […]
