Waiting for salmon to cook is boring. I took that time to make this thing. The salmon was far superior.

Huh, apparently I never posted these before.

These are old-ish, they’re character designs for a project by Jeremy Large (who is a very talented writer but alas does not seem to have a website I can link to) that I unfortunately did not have the time for. It was an awesome concept too, so hopefully he might find someone else to pick up the art torch (that’s like a regular torch, but it makes everything look that horrible shade of brown you get when you smush all the paints together).

I still like these quite a bit, it’s interesting to see what happens when you have a strong direction for what the characters need to be (as opposed to my usual “draw squiggly lines until something looks not shit”).

Robot with pipe 3: Revenge of the Pipe.
The graffiti in the back pretty much sum up how I feel about this one.

Meh.
This one did not go very well, but at least it has a pipe.

The previous thing, IN VIDEO FORM.

4 hours in 20 minutes. Also the resolution is terrible because I suck at Livestream settings.

The real-time livestream is here, in case you’re feeling masochistic http://www.livestream.com/mcnostril

(beware, terrible music)

A robot with a pipe. First he will kneecap you, then he will beat you.
EDIT: Some color correction, because I am incorrigible but my colors aren’t. Hur hur.
