le sigh

I had this other most excellent idea for Harley Quinn but I have lots of other (freelance related=money related) stuff to do so I got lazy and did this.  I should not be spending my time doing fun things but I can't help myself.  I get ideas and I need to do them all right away for some reason.  I don't get bored, I get distracted and full of ADD.  Then I eventually come back to things.  Anyway.  Harley Quinn (who is totally in the top 4 favorite characters of Batman.  Can you guess the other 3?)

And when you reach the end...stop.

M. Hatter.  Size relation.  On to the Cheshire Cat.

Domo Arigato

So, I keep traveling back and forth with the Industrial Alice project.  It pours forth one second, the next I am stumped.  It has turned into basically a brand new story, sharing the same kind of characters and general outline, but is no where CLOSE to Lewis C.'s original.  Which what would be the point in redoing it that way anyway?  It has been done enough.  So, that being said, I designed the "futuristic" march hare.  I love me some robots.  The whole premise here, however, is that the M. Hatter  is a lonely, genius inventor, and his "hare" is his robot companion (in which he built himself for company), but his software never quite took.  I haven't designed M. Hatter yet, but I have a good idea as to what he will look like.   I also have an excellent idea of the sort of environment.  Anyway, here he is.  He IS the modern man, after all.

A is for Anna!

So I have a new logo.  It has more to do with character than it does illustration I feel.  PLUS new character study here too.  I know it is borderline illustration but whatever.  I do what I want.

The Anna v. mechanical doohickies

My dumb scanner broke.  I have a couple true enemies in this world, one of them being printers (ask Kinko's, things go haywire when I walk in no joke) and the other being SCANNERS.  This is the third scanner in 2 years.  IN 2 YEARS!  These things are supposed to last for more than that.  Ugh.  ANNA SMASH!!  ANNA HATE LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTIES!  WHY THEY LIMITED?  THAT ALMOST LIKE OXYMORON!  On that note,  if I were the hulk I would throw angry squirrels at people.  Everyone is frightened of angry squirrels, but loves them enough not to do anything but try to unsuccessfully swat them away.  It's true.....so...anyway....here is the Queen of Hearts.  I can't help but every time I look at her I think "you sassy bitch" in a bemused voice.  Seriously.  Every time I think that.  Mm-hmmmm!    


Mmm-hmm.

girl talk.

So, it's been a while.  I have been doing lots of stuff.  I learned a bit of flash (to be seen later), I worked on 3d projects (you know, like stuffed pb+j sandwiches).  I did everything but go on the computer (the flash part doesn't count.  I took an INTENSE workshop, and the laptop I was on had no internets)
  Anyway, after much thought, I decided my redesign of Alice and co. needed to be redesigned.   I asked myself who I was gearing towards, which was gaming, more realistic, blahblah.  But instead I am going down a route that is more geared towards something/somewhere not so dark.  (surprise!)  The storyline is the same, the environments, just the characters (minus the tweedle bros.  I like them) being redesigned.  So here is Ms. Alice.


Whatever.  I am working again.  It's nice.  I feel better for once.  Expect more soon.
