Hey, I’m still alive! One of the weirder aspects of my new job is that I have to figure out how to add closed captioning to old shows like Lassie. It occurs to me that I have the power to turn it into a show about a really malevolent talking dog.

Some more random practice. This time, rather than tracing, I drew a simplified version of a Charles Dana Gibson character that I happen to have hanging on my wall.

Practicing inking over Wally Wood’s artwork from Mad using Frenden’s Flexible Nib brush for Manga Studio 5.

Doodling on the iPad while nodding off to SNL.

Ah yes, another “too tired to think of anything to draw” post. My new job hasn’t been difficult so far, but the adaptation to new surroundings and meeting new people seems to be enough to make me power down after work. Sure, I’m still up at 11pm posting this, but trust me, if you put your ear against mine right now, you could hear the ocean.
