This is some Frothy Jazz/Jack & Jill/Other Attic artwork I just did to use as my “Cover Photo” or whatever on Facebook. I’m considering making a Facebook page for my comic. Haven’t decided yet… Hmm..
In any case, this depicts new versions of Jack, Jill, Duck, Bio, Clay and Mr. Stick (Atticus). Clay is breaking the 4th wall, sitting on my profile picture and not participating in the actual event depicted. Jill, Duck and Bio are reaching out for Jack who is being carried off by Mr. Stick (Atticus) into darkness.
Mr. Stick doesn’t usually have wings, but it is foreshadowing of events that happen later in the story. It worked well with the image I wanted, though, so I used that version of him.
I got my Air Conditioner put back in earlier than expected, so work will resume on the normal group photo next, then back to the full Clay picture I was doing last year, followed by an unfinished picture of Verdugo that I was working on.
Summer Heats in the Anti-Summer
Ugh. It figures that just as I start getting in the groove of drawing again, the weather/temperature takes a turn for the worst.
Here in NJ (or at least wherever I am right now), the heat is atrocious for 90% of the days this week and past few days. Fan’s doing nothing, can’t use the A/C right now, my room is like a box of heat and I am still running a desktop computer, so I can’t move anywhere in order to continue work on the group shot I was doing.
I’m a man. I get all sweaty on the tablet when drawing inside of a hotbox in front of the roaring engine of an outdated computer that generates more heat… so obviously, I can’t do *anything* right now unless I find some gloves and stick them in a freezer or something. D:
As soon as this crap subsides, I will begin working on my artses again. I know only like 2-3 people follow this, but now you know why I was all gung-ho a couple of days ago and then BAM, nothing. Ah man, sucks. Haha.
Enjoy a “work-in-progress” I’m in the middle of, featuring my characters Jack, Jill, Ben & Bio.
Bio is not done, as you can see (no arms).
I am intending on placing most of the main characters here (Duck and Atticus/Mr. Stick are soon to follow, and most likely Rail and Moth; we’ll see). Didn’t get to post the other day because I lost internet. DOH!
In any case, let me know what you think, if anyone’s out there, listening. Haha.
Working on Other Attic stuff…
I pretend I am doing stuff a lot, but I’m actually doing stuff. Jack, Jill & Ben. 2012 designs. Coming to you SOON (within the next few days; Preferably tomorrow).
Got a picture coming and finally, going to finish that Clay picture from over a year ago. Dohohoho.
Get ready for some newness.
Well, this is something. Not exactly what I planned to post a good year ago, but still something.
This is a test image of Jill, trying a different style of coloring and making her a little less skinny than usual.
Just messing with stuff. You know, the usual.
Turning this into everything, or nothing
So I realized I’m still a man of false promises. I guess 2012 is the year for me. Ugh. I’m hopeless.
Anyway, I decided that, since I don’t do anything with this, I’m going to just make it a general blog now, posting things I find funny or interesting or relevant, in addition to comic stuff whenever I get around to posting things finally.
I apologize to anyone who actually cared, since I haven’t posted any of my own stuff yet, but it will happen eventually, but I’m not going to make any more false promises on dates and windows for posting unless I absolutely know.
Having said that, this will now be a blog for, not only my comic stuff, but for random pictures, video game stuff, and random bits of my life.
DAMN STRAIGHT. Let’s see what happens.
Layout Update and ‘Coming Soon’
Aha! So I have finally sat down and edited the background/heading/buttons and so on.
Drew everything myself and toyed around with everything to make it vaguely interesting (hopefully). I think it’s cool. SO WHATEVER.
Anyway, now that I am happy with the way the site looks (I think) I can start posting stuff. I’ve been drawing a few things, so expect to potentially see them during the week. I will be posting some characters from “Other Attic” almost definitely, so check back soon.
Characters and scenes (both Other Attic and Jack & Jill related) coming throughout the month. Not sure how many, but they’re coming. I’ll update on that next week.
Until then, goodnight everybody!
Mandatory Intro Post
This is the post where I say “Oh hey guys! I’m new to tumblr!”
I’ve created this as an outlet for my comics and the characters within them. I started a brand new deviantArt specifically for it a few months ago as well, but it has a lot of older crap on it as well. Tumblr says “Fuck the old stuff. I don’t want to see how bad you were at drawing in 2004! Give me something new and interesting!”, so that’s exactly what I plan to do.
I am in the process of drawing promotional scenes and brand new character art, so check back in soon. I apologize if I am a little slow, however, as I do tend to let other things distract me. I’m only human.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE INANIMATE OBJECT?
Traffic cone. No real reason, but that’s the answer. As of at least 2004, traffic cones/road cones/pylons have been my favorite inanimate objects.
