I just realized if I can play Pokeymans on a DS emulator I could finally look into other games on the DS that don’t require too much stylus shenanigans (making Poffins was red-hot agony with my WACOM).
Maybe I can look into those lawyering games or the ones where you are a doctor.

Late night brain venting.
A part of me is kind of hopeful for the job app I put in - even though I know it’s just ONE, and I know of people who have been putting in a BUNCH and not having much luck anyplace.
The rest of this is text-heavy and submerged beyond a cut.

Another part is just kind of hoping the eventual response email or call will be “thank you for your interest, but [kindly-stated...

stayonthetentacle asked: I got tired of creeping and just wanna say I adore your art, and Boss Monster has became my favorite web comic lately :) such lovely characters and an interesting setup.

I really love asymmetrical character designs. I think they’re the most rad.
But - and I have rambled about this before - I have MAJOR COGNITIVE DIFFICULTY sometimes, with little things like “left and right”. Without knowing that my left hand’s thumb and forefinger form an L I would sometimes have nothing to go on, and without the “Never Eat Soggy Waffles”...

I liked it a fuck of a lot more than Bug’s Life, Ratatoullie and Cars, I can say that much. But I have some critical disconnect in my brain that prevents me from seeing why everyone lost their shit over Ratatoullie.
It wasn’t fundamentally much different from Finding Nemo in the heartwarming-tale-of-family-togetherness sense, and as a bonus it didn’t have an irritating sidekick...

FOCUS.
Besides the obvious “play music and just keep at it” for anyone out there in the wild world of digital art / cartoons / comics…
What are some things that you do that makes you really FOCUS on getting artwork done (assuming you really WANT to work on something but just keep sidetracking yourself, not just getting angry at having to work)?

WARNING If you get sent a link saying “click here to watch the new Twilight trailer”, don’t click it! The link is to the new Twilight trailer.
Oh my god, thank you.

I am a driver.
NAILED IT. Mostly. I made some errors and didn’t know my hand signals (I did my dumb dyslexic thing where I mean LEFT when I say RIGHT. ugh ugh ugh I do this all the time on other things and even practiced) but I have my temp license and I will have my driver’s license with my horrible photo of me they took when I got my permit (I didn’t know they take your picture for that, and...
My driver’s test is in a half an hour. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Starving but afraid of eating too solid of food. Having ramen noodles. Will hopefully be able to work on comics this afternoon.

Me: Oh wow the makeup I had on totally didn't wash off all the way. Or at all.
Me: But it's left me with perfect smoky eyeliner. I don't know if I should sleep in this.
Me: I also don't think my eyes have ever looked so pretty. But I think there was a Foul Bachelorette frog about this.
Me: ...
Me: I may look like a hungover mess when I wake up in the morning.
Me: But I may also have really easy-to-touch-up eye make up tomorrow my god I can't wash this off. This is officially studying for character writing.

I had one of those horrifying dreams last night where everyone is really angry or disappointed (in this dream it was to the POINT of anger or abandonment) with you. It’s sticking with me even though I’m identifying it all as “not real”. It just has me super wigged out today.

So I set out on trying to complete 3 comic pages this week. 4 if I could.
On Monday I finished 1, and that was cool.
On Tuesday I was 2 for 2 and felt unstoppable.
On Wednesday I got a half page inked and messed up my back, which set me back so much I had to take some rather strong prescription pain killers and they still have me zonked.
Also the data on the Pokemon Pearl game that I started...

So I glanced over at my desk and I freaked out because I saw these two huge bugs the size of my pinky nail and I was like “AAAHHH HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE ON MY CHAPSTICK”
…my Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm has two drawings of bees on it.
So I think I am officially maybe in that state of “I should sleep!” and am gonna do that. But I have gotten another page...

This is pretty much just a mini-vent so I don’t spend the rest of the day with a bunch of irritation bottled up inside me and have an anxiety rage attack!

Telling a person that you are “sad” that something went badly, when “going badly” means you paid ANOTHER PERSON not very much money to do work that was very frustrating and unnecessarily time-consuming...

kayzig replied to your post: Wow, I can’t paint with the freaking photoshop…
Even assuming there’s sarcasm, I’d say don’t sweat it, as the PS default airbrush is good for SOME effects? but I definitely don’t use it for much (obviously seeing as I mostly post cel-shaded and flat…

I always sketch in black. I find red lining or blue lining never works out for me. There might be some comikers out there rolling their eyes, and maybe I should be doing it, but whatever works, eh?
I actually saw someone say they INK in blue because black makes them sad and then they just darken / recolor their inks when they’re done, once, I think..! I sketch in a...

Google Docs
Is anyone else here using Google Documents? And if so, is it imploding for you, too? My scripts are kind of IN there, and I am a dumb and I’m not sure if I have them on my hard drive. I SHOULD have a way to access them and I doubt that something like Google Docs is gonna just crash and die and eat all my stuff, but, you know. I’d like to know what is happening here.
