Mink and Roob

I've been busy with a few different projects the last couple months, so I haven't had time to do fun blog drawings. So here's a couple of pages from the comic I finished. You may have this book if you went to cripple con and were a non-cheapskate.

Here are what the roughs look like.


I'll post some more on other projects soon.

Cripple Con

I attended the "cripple con" this past week. A convention celebrating all art forms. Mostly caricatures, cartoons etc.


It was held outside Kansas City at The Elms Resort. They manged to put up with 75 loud, routy and sometimes very drunk cartoonists for 3 days. This is the town above and the hotel pool and spa area below. I did not go swimming as there was no life guard on duty.

Here are a few of my drawings, with no pictures of the actual faces so you can't tell how much I suck.
Kev and Pat above. They are from Texas but are moving out to SD next month. So watch your backs you Sea World kamans people.
This is Ben above who was good enough to help get me and a few others a ride from the airport. Saved everyone a lot of money.
Kelsea (probably spelled wrong) another Texan. A bright eyed young girl with dreams of killing.
Who also made sure me and some others got back TO the airport. Thanks!!
and Matt Zitman
This is the ballroom just getting started with con heads Len and Barb Hernandez in the foreground and Beau Hufford in the background.
Not long till everyone was there having fun and jumping to the music of que padre.
The hotel is supposedly haunted and a whole lot of "orbs" showed up in all the dancing pics.

Some random post

"Yep that's right, There's a new comic over at that other blog" "whoa jeeze"
"My god a new comic? How fascinating."
"Hmmm, I stopped reading that dumb comic. That guy never posts anymore.
"Yeah, I hate that guy. Who does he think he is?"
"Well I like that comic and I'm going to go read it. Dum dee doo..."

San Diego is on fire!......again

It's the four year anniversary from the big cedar fire here in San Diego. What better way to celebrate than with another fire!
This is the street on the side of my house. Just beyond the house at the end of the road is a canyon filled with smoke.
I drove down the road to a park that is perched over looking the same canyon with a 180 degree view. (view below is not 180)
If you're familiar with black mountain/ Rancho Penisquitos this is looking down on that area (above). Just to the right would be Black Mountain but it was not visible with all the smoke.
The houses above are down the street from me and along the same canyon.

I don't know how these kids were playing baseball. It was getting hard to breath just walking around taking these pictures. Also the camera didn't pick this up but there was ash falling from the sky like a light snow fall (I assume).

Comic Con: The tale of a late post

So comic-con was 2 months ago, and since I am always on the cutting edge I thought I'd share some of these drawings I did while there.
One of these people above paid to be at comic con and the other one is being paid to be at comic con. Guess which is which.

Elite security was in top form this year. Giving me the wrong information about everything from which lines to stand in to what door not to enter. I think a lot of those "elite" guys are old high school jocks who want to bark at nerds.

Go check out Anne Bush's blog to see the new Mink and Roob title card. Something is coming soon on that.

This is just a doodle I did the other day. This blog needed some color. What are they looking at? Find out in a couple of weeks.

Cry Baby

I drew this comic in about 5 or 10 minutes tonight. It's a couple of guys I know who take a little too much pleasure in getting their sketches rejected and making little girls cry while drawing caricatures.
I'm not sure how funny this comic will be for anyone who doesn't draw caricatures, or anyone who doesn't know Jared Lipscomb (pg1) or Nate Kapnicky (pg2).




Anyone remember a movie called Cry Baby where Johnny Depp collects his tears in a jar? Yeah, me neither but my girlfriend always talks about it.

300

I sat down to draw my weekly comic. I usually have a page on the side to doodle on to stay loose. I doodled a page and then 5 pages and then this, so I colored it up. Now it's 3am and and still no comic.

Transformers: Alternate Prequel

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you are one of the 6 people on the planet that have not seen Transformers then do not read on. Seriously, if you continue to read the rest of this post you will tarnish your movie viewing experience. Micheal Bay will cry if you have not seen Transformers and you continue to read on. Seriously guys....






Ok now that the losers are gone, do you remember in the movie that Megatron came to Earth in 1934 looking for the all spark. He crashed in Antarctica and got frozed. I wrote this comic as if Megatron hadn't traveled millions of light years, got to Earth and slipped on ice.
Steven Spielberg and Micheal Bay frequent this blog (I assume), so I'll ask them directly.
How do you guys like my story telling skills? Can I story board the sequel? Just let me know down in the comments. I'll get in touch.

Right over here kids. My Secret Life as a Cartoon





llamas only have bottom teeth. One of these guys had buck teeth, but they were bucking from below.
