It took me a lot longer to draw this one then any of the other roughs as of late. Probably because I know how Random should look and so I’m more particular with her. I always liked the idea of her just doing average, everyday things… only sexy with out really meaning to be. Like waking up in the morning and stumbling about the house before work.
Now is it any surprise that I picked Random to be the first on the chair? You all should have seen that coming. But, I bet you never would have predicted this. Because I loved the suggestions that you all gave on the original Chair post, I decided to make a little project for myself. I’m going to draw every character you people gave on this chair. I thought about it a lot when the original post went up and the more I did,the more I liked the challenge. Drawing a each character a different way might be a great way to explore character personalities with a single, shared prop.
The drawings will be just as you see them. Simple lines and colours so they can be done quickly. Plus I like the look. The character list can grow and that’s fine. There is no deadline and if I get bored with it then I’ll stop. But for now I really love the concept. In fact I have two others done right now, but I’ll wait a bit to post them rather than barf them out all at once.
So thanks every one for these great ideas. I’m very excited to do more of them.
No, this isn’t an announcement for an upcoming game. It would be cool if it was though, eh? Nope, just more fake screen shots of my fictitious GameBoy game Random Mysteries. I generally think that I missed my calling in the industry. I would have loved to make a GameBoy game back in the day. Oh, well… I can at least appease myself with making screen shots of the games in my head.
I wonder what charm tactics Random has in her bag. *wink, wink* ^_^
So as I’m sure most people know, my blog here is hosted by The JAB Archives. Well, I’m pleased to say that as of June 1st, the whole site is getting a new over haul. Everything about the site is getting a fresh coat of paint and redesign so it’s easier to find the artists that you want to see. What’s really neat is that even I didn’t realize just how many artists we host here. Twenty one artists in all, including me! I’m practically neighbors with artists like Jive Guru, Wagner and Karavan and I didn’t even know!
To celebrate the new redesign, I’ve done up a fancy new picture of Random inviting you to come see what’s new in the new TJA… and what’s in her shirt too. I really do encourage people to go and check out the other artists here at The JAB Archives or maybe even be apart of the forum. Most importantly, I want to thank everyone that has supported TJA for the past 17 years. You guys are the freak’n best! ^_^
Thought I’d show off a little something I’ve been working on. So I made that Random pixel post a while back and it got me wanting to do more of it. So I started working on something a little different. See, I love GameBoy games. If I could make one I would in a heart beat. Having worked in mobile games all my life, I now love having graphical limits put on me. I find that I am my most creative when I have only very little to work with. I makes me think differently in order to create an awesome final result.
Anyway, I thought about how much fun it would be to have Random Squirrel have her own GameBoy Game. I picture a isometric detective game where you have to gather clues and talk to people to gather info so solve a case. What with her being a courtroom stenographer, I’m sure she’d loves get hands messy in some amateur detective work. I’m sure she has her ways to get info from people (wink, wink).
I only did a few fake screen shots, but I think I’ll do up some more since they where so much fun to do.
The first furry smut I ever saw was…?
Ta dah! What’s this you ask? Why just some random pixels. Actually, this here is represents what I do for a career. No, not sexy pictures (well, that too I guess). I push pixels and I’ve been doing so for about 10 years. Oh sure, I can paint and illustrate too, but my true love is old school graphics.  I’ve never done a pixel illustration for my blog, so I thought it might be fun to try it out. I think my random squirrel came out pretty adorable. I might just have to try others too. I think Ping and Pong would look so cute like this.
One thing that I don’t have though is a pixel blog/site. I know there are other pixel artists that have galleries (Paul Robertson, Kenneth Fejer), but I never felt compelled to so the same and reach pixel fame on the internet. All my pixels can only been seen in the games I’ve made. Oh, and just so everyone knows, this image here is scaled up 200% so you can see it better. Here it is at it’s original size.
I keep a survival kit on my desk. What is this kit called?
