I finished off my weekend re-watching Season 1 of “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” on Netflix. Season 2 premieres April 15!

I think Kimmy’s roommate/sidekick Titus, in his knockoff Iron Man…er, “Metal Hero Friend” Times Square character costume, is the closest I ever want to get to drawing a superhero.

My brother-in-law requested a logo for his company’s baseball team, which is named after a minor league club branded with a similarly metallic and ornery oinker. So yeah, in terms of the basic concept (and color scheme), this is a total rip-off, but the cartoony head, for whatever it’s worth, is all mine.

I worked on this from start to finish on my iPad Pro. The initial sketch (below) was done in Procreate, and the vector art was done in Autodesk Graphic, formerly known as iDraw.

The first thing people often noticed about my favorite coworker was that her office chair was an exercise ball. Today, she made a move that was both gutsy and rational: leaving her post simply because she was ready for something new. Does she have a new job lined up? Nope. Will she succeed? Yep.

Have I thought about following her example? [REDACTED]

I almost forgot the Golden Globes was on tonight, which is funny considering where I work, and the fact that several of my co-workers were on the red carpet. But Ricky Gervais pulled me in with his usual lack of reverence for Hollywood stars, which set the tone for a show has been entertainingly off the rails.

From what I understand, a lot of actual artists use thumbnail-sized sketches to work out their compositions without getting too bogged down with detail. Perfect use for my new 3.5" x 2.5" pad. Next stop, grains of rice!
