DRAWING IN CIRCLES

I saw Where The Wild Things Are last night and pretty much had a nostalgia overload. Not so much because of the book, which I think I maybe read once or twice when I was a kid. But mostly because growing up the kid-finds-a-monster-and-then-ADVENTURE! flicks constantly rocked my world, and WTWTA totally hit that on the head. Those movies though always seemed to end the same where kid has to lose monster and return to boring regular world. I think I like it better that way though; the movies that kept the monster at the end were sometimes a bit on the cheeze side. Or maybe it just made me feel better in some way. As I got older I slowly began to realize I'd never get my own fucking monster :(

 This one came from a OC session with darkreaver.
I recently discovered the best thing on the internet and I have no fucking idea what it's about. Clothes or something, who cares.

I hate re-adjusting to the cold. I tend to get really bad shivers around night time that make me feel uneasy.

Hello neglected journal. I have stuff to post but I'm too fucking busy.
Unity-16 Character Trade with Audrey's character:


 Here's an Odosketch: http://sketch.odopod.com/sketches/102711/

I think one of my new life goals is to terrorize people I respect on the internet.

Wanted to try painting something in MSPaint, so I drew Aeronik's skulletor. Well despite lacking keyboard shortcuts it actually was a lot of fun.
 

I haven't been posting art lately huh. I honestly feels like I haven't drawn or painted anything in ages. My health has been kinda crummy so it's been hard to sit down and focus on drawing for long. These were done in Brushes on iPhone. I can only seem to paint on handheld devices lately.

Color is fun.





This is the funniest thing I've heard all month.
"How much did the workers hate George Pullman? When he died, they had to bury his body in a steel and concrete vault, which was itself buried under a few tons of concrete. Why? Because--and we're not making this up--they were afraid that employees would dig up and beat the shit out of his corpse, otherwise."

another character trade. Got this from Shakes:



My version:

Modeselektor and Apparat teamed together to make Moderat, an album that pretty much takes the whole Burial sound and runs with it. Fortunately they both pull it off real nice. And this video is fucking amazing for how simple it is.

Scott and I drew each others cheezy characters that we used to draw in jr high/high school.

Behold a teenage Scott's character, NightFang:




My take on it:

Every day hundreds of thousands of clips are uploaded to YouTube, some of which use copyrighted music. Of course the major record labels argue that these illegal uploads are killing their profits as people buy less music when YouTube users add a track to a home made video. Not everyone in the music business agrees with this assessment though. When the indie rock band Barcelona saw one of its latest tracks featured in a viral video with nearly a million views, they responded quite differently. They claim that the clip below actually boosted their album sales and concert visits.


 Wow. Quite a great combination of visuals and audio.
