WIP: Star Wars Character Art
I have mentioned the Star Wars collaborative story I am part of over on a website called "Spacebattles.com"; I am working on making a few character pictures, some of which I have shared here a few weeks ago.Here is my latest, a character called Shayyla Axmis-Syfardos. She is the daughter of ...
Protesting Doodles
Why would anyone want to protest doodles? Oh, you mean protesting by using doodles! I can get on board with that! As I made this doodle, President Aleksandar Vucic was the target of protests all across Serbia. It's like there's a Rebellion or something!The cops are too busy with their donuts...
BOHICA Blues KFOR: "The Tell"
First I'd like to start by apologizing for the weird disappearance of what was supposed to be the "WIP Wednesday" material. I had stuff loaded; I distinctly remember loading it, but when I came in here today to load this comic, I realized that the last published item was the Monday Doodl...
War Must Wait... for DOODLES!
I can be a bringer of peace, see? Keeping people strung along waiting for doodles. Sometimes even monsters need to let loose and have a drink. Um, well, okay, hello, there, Mr. Larva. Pleased to meet you. I guess.We will sit here and wait patiently for the next round of doodles, yes sirree.
WIP Wednesday!
And so, it begins......or in this case, ends. I've heard that "Every beginning is the start of an end," and so it shall soon be with my time here in sunny, downtown Kosovo (actually, as I write this, it is anything but sunny, but that's beside the point. I have begun the final comics...
Wait, Wait..! DOODLES!
There's always time for Doodles!Lizard Guy is down for some doodles!No need to get all Emo about it. Good dog! Here's your doodles. Later!
WIP Wednesday... continued
I apologize for having to continue this WIP from the previous week... I got back from vacation and was caught short of material, and now I am back for just a few days and I am being transferred to another base called "Nothing Hill" (yes, that is its real name, probably from the same weirdo t...
Hurry Up! Doodles!
Here they come! Best prepare yourself; you ain't got much time!Take care of the personal hygiene NOW! You got places to be!We wait for no one! We ride now! Something-something hurry up!Hurry up because... Spring is coming!
WIP Wednesday!
As I come back from vacation, I don't have a lot of stuff ready and queued up, so I am putting some comics together tonight (it is 9:50 pm in Kosovo as I do this now) and I don't have a full WIP product all the way to the end. Still, I am maximizing my time by using a one-panel comic, and he...
"What Did I Get Myself Into?" Doodles
Looks like you got yourself into Funeral School! This sounds like a very grave undertaking, indeed! Look, the Army even gives you a budget hearse!On the other hand, if you've gotten yourself into Appalachia, well, I dunno what to do. Even SuperPig can't save you; they'll just turn him in...
BOHICA News!
It's that time again!So, as I write this, it is April 4th and I am getting ready to go on two weeks of leave. I am not taking my computer with me as part of this vacation is specifically to unplug-- I've been working in Kosovo since October without a real break, and I spend most of my time h...
"Actuating Event" Doodles
It's all fun and games until there's an actuating event. Not quite a dumpster fire, more like... a garbage tank, bearing down on you!Better than having one of these bearing down on you while you're in the trenches, I guess, so... yay? Think positively?Maybe just have a drink and relax at...
WIP Wednesday
I have some full-page stuff to share this time because there's no giveaway in the visuals! As usual, I get my visual references from looking at photo references. It's easier and easier for me to find things, I just hit up Google Images for things like "irritated woman at desk" and I ...
Crusty Old GWOT Veterans Doodles
That's what I am; a crusty old GWOT veteran. We were doing introduction to rifle marksmanship ("PMI" = Primary Marksmanship Instruction, a classroom phase you attend prior to going out to the firing range) and the instructor warned people that "some crusty old GWOT vet" will try ...
WIP Wednesday!
This episode is going to be titled, "A Piece of Home". It starts with the usual loose, crummy pencil sketch that gets the important parts down so that I can build on them.Getting some detail in. A friend of mine from my Army Reserve unit went to Boise State University to get a degree in Illu...
No Treats For You Doodles
No treats! And hey, not on the carpet!Uhhh, Mr. Gorilla, you can have your treat. Please don't hurt me. Bender is coming to get your treats. Hey! 'Roids aren't treats! Try and take away the gorilla's treat, Mr. 'Roid Rage!
WIP Wednesday!
I made a special comic in about an hour (whew!) because of an event that took place in the unit. I do hope that --by the time this posts-- people are ready to look back at it and laugh. Right now there's still a bit of heartburn over it. However, because the comic itself was made with some hast...
Surprise Encounters Doodles
Sometimes you never know who is going to interrupt you.It could be That Guy On The Internet. Stay away from him!Nah, not really thinking about it; I just happened to accidentally end up here. But thanks for interrupting me. Cthulhu will interrupt your life, and it will be... uhhh... well, wow, I gue...
WIP Wednesday!
This time we get to see the chow hall! Something I have neglected doing in detail because it has some complex background work, as you see.Somewhat cleaned up and less busy-- you can see I have my work cut out for me with the lattice in the background. There we go, now it's a bit better... got so...
Army Training Doodles!
My favorite! You gotta get combat ready, sojer!No, not this kind of "training". Although if you're learning how to be a railroad engineer in the Army, I suppose it is the most literal definition of "training". If we know someone is having a hard time and struggling mentally or em...
BOHICA Blues: KFOR "Warnings Exist for a Reason"
Here at Camp Bondsteel, in Kosovo, we have what's called the "Eagle Cash Card". It is essentially a pre-paid debit card that is used instead of cash at the on-post venues. We fill it with money from our home accounts, and you can only charge what you have on it. It's better than a cr...
WIP Wednesday!
I got a lot of comics done last Saturday, the 8th. I am trying to get as many created as possible so I can pre-load stuff before going on vacation for two weeks. This one is a single-panel comics because my previous comic was a big two-pager with four large, broad panels in it... so now I'm goi...
Time For Some Army Schoolin' Doodles!
Drill sarn't coming to give you some schoolin', there, young warrior. Bes' lissen up!First you gotta learn about that there drug abuse! It's bad for you!Yeah, this is kinda how I feel after a weekend of non-stop mandatory classes.Can't wait to go home for some "adult learning...
BOHICA News!
The latest in this and that!I am more that 1/2-way through the deployment to Kosovo with KFOR; in fact, I have less time remaining than I have already spent. They are being cagey with the dates, though, which is normal-- we're usually not told solid dates until we're really close to it, up u...
Be Safe Doodles!
You can do everything right to be safe, but if circumstances are against you..."S-6" is the Communications section in an Army staff. And this is the only truly "safe" means of communications: cans and string. Everything else can be compromised. Big Sarge won't keep you safe, but ...
BOHICA Blues Today: "Image"
"Film City" is the name of a real camp in Kosovo; it is in fact the main Multinational Headquarters camp located in the capitol of Prishtina. I'm not sure where the name comes from. And if you want to go there, it is easiest to just drive a car, or as we call it, a "GMR". GMR sta...
Yuuuuuge Doodles. The Best Doodles.
I have the best doodles; everyone says so. Even dogs dress up to see my doodles! Whaaa--? You talkin' 'bout MY doodles!? Say it ain't so!Well, OK, I guess you ARE an expert. Sigh.
WIP Wednesday!
This one went all over the place. I knew as soon as I drew the characters I was going to have to move them around a bit; they were too far over to the left (I wanted them somewhaton the left, but not that much) and they were too tall for the frame as I drew them. Still, I got them inked in situ and ...
Goin' to PRISON Doodles.
What on Earth did you do to go to prison because of doodles!?Probably something EVIL.My former supervisor at work was pretty evil. Actually, she wasn't evil, just kind of stupid. OK, it's pretty evil to do that to Bert. But since he's just a puppet to begin with, something like this shou...
WIP Wednesday!
I have a cool panel with a helicopter in it, but it gives away the joke. Darn it! But now we get to see Lieutenant-Colonel Reese and Sergeant-Major Warner discussing morale in the Task Force. Getting that line work done..! Cleaned up with a lot of the little "tails" eliminated. And of course...
