Antisocial 2

I secretly love this panel.

Unfortunately, my dear XPS m1330’s (shown in comic) graphics card is dead (or dying, more like). My warranty should’ve expired a year ago, but I looked up my service tag on Dell.com, and apparently my warranty was extended 2 years. Or at least, that’s how it appears. I sure hope so, because otherwise, that’s a $300 fix–replacing the motherboard an’ all.


Yesterday I turned twenty. Man. I feel old. Which means that I’ve been drawing for almost twenty years, though it’s hard to know when exactly I started. I have sketchbook from before I knew how to read or write. So maybe 18-years of drawing? Wow.

I haven’t been slacking off on the artstuff this semester. I have more sketches! Yesss!

If you haven’t read Aido/Ananth’s “Callie Eats Feathers” you should.

Something I found out yesterday when I was clothes shopping: No one told me that I look like a dude from behind. What the heck.

Anyhow, happy Super Bowl!


Not only did I upload half a year’s worth of sketches (an embarrassingly small amount), but I started a new webcomic and completely revamped the site. There are a few tweaks left to do, so please be patient as everything is reconfigured.

Hopefully the new BS comic won’t be a short-lived inspiration. The comic is based off my life and friends, a topic of which I hope is interesting, for your and my sake. I think I’ve worked out a good style for the comic–something very fitting for me. Loose and sketchy, everything freehand (no straight edges anywhere!).

I got another 72 set of Copic Markers. Brand new for only $250. That’s less than four bucks a marker! What. Now. They had a spin the wheel thing at Dick Blick, and the counter lady let me spin it until I got 40% off (plus two t-shirts from previous spins). So now I have Set A and Set C for the 72 Sketch sets, along with 13 or so markers I picked up individually.

In other news my laptop’s graphics card died, which is going to be an expensive repair. :(

No seriously. It’s been, what, a few months? This is the only decent thing I’ve managed to produce:

Oh, and I made this fuzzy fleece blanket for a certain friend’s Atheist-mas present. Needless to say we played a lot of TF2 this break.

I have lots of sketches to upload, but little time to upload time. Maybe I’ll pull out the scanner during fall break?

A watercolor for a friend’s birthday:

Life is TOO busy. 18 hours of classes, 16 hours of work a week, plus LIFE.

Bleck.

I’ll have sketchbook uploads if I ever get a day off.
