joe randel's art dump

Okay, so lets go down the list.

Aelius24 asks:  Hmm… I was curious… what have some of your characters been up too lately? (Monique, Gwen, Namir, etc.)

Well, I really haven’t done much with any of them really.  If any of them have gotten my attention it would be Gwen as I have a folio in the works for her… It’s been in the works for a while actually.  But one some day I’ll get it done.

TheGreatZarquon asks:  I’ve a question, if you don’t mind it- do you have any tattoos?

Nope, can’t say that I do.  Never had, or understood, the desire to get one.  That’s not to say I look down on people that have them.  I’ve seen tattoos that look very cool or sexy.  I guess they’re just not for me.

operative274 asks:  Hmmm… What drew you to the smut side of anthro, sir?

Well, a long time ago, back when I was around 13.  I decided that waiting to turn 18 was too long to buy porn so I decided to draw my own.  I started with naughty pictures of Betty and Veronica but I then experimented with Tiny Toons, Rescue Rangers and Tail Spin.  I found that I could make them look really cute and it was just more appealing then BnV.

Fast forward to college and the discovery of the internet.  I wasn’t looking for anthro smut really.  I just like cartoon smut in general.  But I found that most of what was out there was pretty low quality.  Well, at least in my eyes.  TDK, Jeremy Bernal and JAB where my faves at the time.  I then told myself “I can draw this stuff”.  And so I decided to draw what I liked in my younger days only at a much higher quality.

The crazy thing is, dawing and painting smut has really improved my art skills in a pretty short amount of time.  Although I’m sure drawing in general would have done that.

The short answer… I draw it cuze I like it. ^_^

Tiquitoc asks:  Will you update the gallery section in you site on Jabarchives?

Yeah… I gotta get on that soon.  Truth be told, I want to update the gallery.  I want to get a plug in for wordpress and make it much easier for me to put something up.  But until then I need to install Dreamweaver or that GoLive program so I can actually update that gallery.  Sigh… someday.  Most days by the time I get to sit down, I’m so beat that I just veg out on the couch.

Welp, that looks to be it for now.  Thanks for the questions… till next time I’m stumped on a post topic. ^_^
