So this was an image I did awhile ago based on a Guess ad. Every time I see their name on shirts or pants I can’t help thinking that I’m suppose to guess they’re actually a dude or something. It’s like they’re asking me to guess their secret shame.

More girls from teen magazines. I was struggling with not cartooning the mouth so much and yet still having the picture look like the girl was smiling… the mouth doesn’t actually come to a point so it’s a little odd. I didn’t succeed on the smile for the Wal*mart one. So I made the teeth sort of a joke.

My Muse, Page 37: Keep Dreaming… Part 3 0f 4

So, I thought of posting this up page on April fools day and making the bottom two panels black with just a “then she died” at the bottom and a small journal about how I was giving up on comics and what not. But then I thought about and decided that wasn’t funny so I made a picture of 2 naked guys for everyone instead.

I called up Mike the other day and I was all “So, I finished My Muse…” And then I said “well not all 300 pages” and Mike was all “wow you’re fast.” I gave him the finger even if he couldn’t see it. What I meant was that I’ve finished all of the layouts I had so now I’m 3 pages ahead on the comic which will hopefully mean that I’ll start inking again. I’m feeling pretty good about the comic work right now although it seems to fit that area in my head where I try to avoid my paying work. Mostly known as, surfing the internet. So deadline looming “ah, I should draw this My Muse panel”. Sitting around “I could be working” well lets finish this Muse page. Pages just seemed to end up done that way. It’s a good sign.

Now, I’m out of postable layouts to work on (I have two extra layouts that don’t get posted so I could still do those) and I’m up to page 40 on My Muse. 10 more pages and I’m a 1/6th of the way through. I have to take a break from getting ahead on My Muse to work on a different comic for the money. Thankfully My Muse will still come out on time cause I have a backlog.

In other news, whee, I dreamed I got hit by a bus. =]

So once more it is April the first and I do enjoy this day in my own little way. So, once more I give to you all a picture I drew just for the fans that sometimes ask me for random art. I AM SO EVIL. =]

Heh poor Tom and Eric. These are my guys from my old comic Handle With Care. I hope you like Twig… you did ask for more of them. =>

Thanks for all the comments and emails… they really help me when I’m feeling down and the art is punching me… please don’t hurt me for this.
