Week 8

Sketchbook Index

8-3-07: I had the same problem as with the sketch for 8-1-07. Drawer's block. I had to give up drawing for the day again.
8-2-07: I polished this one up and made it an IRK comic, which you can see here. I was working on another strip at the time, but it was taking so long. Minutes after the idea for this comic popped into my head I sketched it out and decided to post this one instead. The final product ended up pretty nice for a rush job. Normally I don't sketch preliminary versions of my strips on paper; I tend to go through the entire process on computer.
8-1-07: This was a bad sketch day. I was going for a particular character rendering that I just couldn't nail. You can see the evolution of the character from left to right. I never quite got it and gave up drawing the rest of the day. Hence, the saying below.
7-31-07: I may be misrepresenting myself with all this corporate bitterness. Of course I understand the benefits of capitalism, free trade, blah blah blah. But when I'm sitting in my cubicle (i.e. padded cell) stewing in my impotent rage, my doodles tend to verge on the negative side. The guy on the right is both balding and sporting a mullet. I believe that's called a "skullet." Noone in particular inspired the drawing.
7-30-07: I just wanted to do something cartoony but of course I couldn't resist a vague jab at the corporate world. And to the right you can see I was playing with the IRK logo. I used to doodle letters and logos and fonts non-stop. Ah, just like old times.
