Oh Yeah...

Please do note that I made a new banner. I'm proud. AND I DIDN'T HAVE TO DRAW ANY NEW PICTURES!!! Oh Photoshop, I do love you.

That's all.

#4: Woe



The new comic! See, I told you I'd put it up today! Great Expectations (See Jeremy Latham Davies' vlog) opened last week and I was too tired to ink straight. So I decided to post a day late and give you a nicer looking comic! Ain't I nice?? :D

This comic is based on a true story of how I broke my glasses. "Based" meaning loosely inspired by. I ran facefirst into my front door on Weds, and the hinge broke off on one side. Eheh.

Enjoy! And comments are always welcome!

Very Slight Delay

I actually do have the comic penciled and half inked. But with how busy this week has been, and after performing again today, I'm far too tired to ink this thing without screwing it up. So I'll finish and post it tomorrow. Consider it quality control! I really don't want to post a bad comic...

FREE COMIC BOOK DAY IS ALMOST HERE!

Free comics? Yep! The first Saturday in May, which this year is the 2nd, is Free Comic Book Day! Go to your local comic book store (there's fewer of them around these days, but you can find one) and get yours! On this wonderful day, publishers....uh, publish...special comics to try and introduce the public to the wonderful world of comics! From the Avengers to Owly, there are all sorts of genres and styles to find! So go get yours next Saturday!

For more information, go HERE

EDIT: for some reason, the site's not working. So just google Free Comic Book Day.

--Yes, this was just a plug. BUT IT WAS AN AWESOME ONE!

Doodletime #2


I'm going to conclude this busy day with a sketch from my book! Its a little blurry on the edge, but that's what happens when you scan from a thick book. I just wanted to show evidence that I can draw something other than cats and snakes, eheheheh. Have a good week all, I'm going to be busy all week.

By the way, this is a slightly older version of one of my human characters, a girl named Eclair.

#3: Abracadabra!


Catsup number three! This week's strip was based off of something that really happened to Catsup's biggest fan, a friend I have named Blanket. Apparently, her professor really did say something like this. I thought it was perfect for Catsup!

This strip really shows Catsup's imagination at work. He's a lot like me, his mind wanders while in class. I don't think a class has ever had my full attention. Not even an art class...

Enjoy the strip! See, I told you I'd post two today! And now I'm all caught up, and ready to stay on track!

#2: Bologna!

EDIT: I am so stupid. I was looking at it and realized that I forgot to color Crystal's nose. You probably didn't notice, but I reuploaded it anyway. Because things like that bother me.

Comic number two! Again, I'm sorry about it being so late. But I was sick, after all...

This comic marks the first appearance of Snake! He's a very loving character, and doesn't talk much. Drawing this strip reminded me of why I love these cats so much--their facial expressions can be so, so strange. Like Catsup's in panel four. At least, I find it amusing. Hahahaha...

Now that last week's is up, I'll post this week's later today. Until then, have fun with this!

Apologies (the sick blog)

For those who wondered where last week's comic was, I'll tell you. Its in my backpack, waiting to be scanned. I have been very, very sick since last Thursday, and was too ill last weekend to draw a comic. But I'm getting better, and this weekend I'll post last week's and a new one for this week! Yay, right?

I'm sorry...but I promise I'll make it up to you! For serious! I was so sick I couldn't play Half Life 2! Yeah!

Since tomorrow's tech day for Great Expectations, the comics will be up on Sunday.

#1: Art Class

Comic one is up! And I know its small, but I think if you click it you get to see the full version...? We'll see...

This is the first Catsup I've done in years, forgive me if the characters are wonky. I need to get used to drawing them again! Also the first one ever scanned in and colored on the computer. I kinda like the look, it reminds me of newspaper strips.

As with all my comics, this was drawn on bristol board with ink. My pens have been weird latley, so I just used a tech pen, but I will soon go back to pen nibs and india ink, my favorite media ever. So so so when I finished the drawing, and was all set to scan it in, my scanner wouldn't connect to my computer! Oh no, right? And then I got it to connect...and it wouldn't scan. But it worked after being unplugged and re-plugged, so all is good. And you probably didn't need that boring story, but I told you anyway. So there.

Anyways, this didn't take as long as I thought. Maybe I'll update every Sunday night?

Doodletimetm

While digging through my pile o' art bits, I found some doodles from various classes. I think all of these are fairly recent, as they were near the top of the heap. Yes, there is a heap. And I thought, "hey, I should put these on Catsup's blog." And I did. I think I'll continue this, too, as not everything I doodle has Catsup in it.

Enjoy!
