My BFF Grey Has A Listing On The Internet Movie Database.

This is a digital painting of Mrs. Ho, the Cook from the wonderful film Clue.  Mrs. Ho was played by Kellye Nakahara, and her only line of dialogue is represented here.

I scratched this out with the classic/modelling brush in MyPaint.

It amazes and delights me that people are still digging this ridiculous thing I made 11 years ago.  That's something like three centuries in Internet Time.

If you desire context and production details, click through to the YouTube description.

Digital portrait of a woman named Courtney I used to know, done in August 2005 with a smallish camera phone photo as reference.  Her hair was really those colors.

I didn't have a drawing tablet back then; all points and vectors were placed manually with a mouse.  That method, combined with the fact that I wasn't entirely comfortable doing vector-based art at that point, resulted in this being very slow work.

Also, OMG LENS FLARE!!!@#$%^&*

They have lots of new gTLDs you can put a website on nowadays.

I acquired ascii.bike and put an ASCII bike on it.

My homemade Tom Servo hanging out at the movies in 2004.  This display seemed to catch his interest for some reason.

He's a totally functional puppet, built out of most of the same parts as the MST3K crew used (or, where unavailable, fan-made replicas of same.)  I'll put up some clearer pics of him soonish.

A fascinating fact about the latest Doctor Who trailer.

Trollface stencil.  U jelly, hand-painters?

I stencilized Trollface.  It was my first shot at making a stencil out of someone else's image and it came out ugly as hell, but the original Trollface is also ugly as hell and that has done nothing to diminish my eternal love for him.

A dramatic reading I performed from the LiveJournal my old friend Murd0c used to have, as originally posted by him on September 1, 2003.  NSFW for sweariness.

Unfortunately the post I'm reading can no longer be seen; Murd0c deleted his LiveJournal because he didn't want a bunch of crap he wrote as a teenager still out there.  I don't see what his damn problem is, this was some ace material.

I’d recently come to the conclusion that I needed to do more regular artwork to keep the brain juices going, even if only one quick doodle per day.  To this end, I began privately doodling some of my friends’ Twitter userpics.

I’d done a few and realized that the best thing to do with my growing collection of userpic doodles would be to start posting them on their own dedicated Twitter account, and throw the general Twitter public into the mix.  Hence, twitter.com/RobDrawsYourPic.

Now friends, acquaintances, luminaries, and total strangers are all finding themselves receiving my unsolicited mutations of their avatars, and I’ve even fulfilled some requests.  It’s a good excuse to not only get some sort of drawing done every day, but to try out some different styles.

So far folks on the tweetybirds seem to be digging it, or at least taking it in stride.  A couple of people have even changed their userpic to my version, which is entirely wild.  I’m sure I’ll creep someone out eventually, though.

Images are scaled down here; hit twitter.com/RobDrawsYourPic and the subjects’ Twitter accounts for the bigger versions.  Original userpics remain the property of their owners.

This past Wednesday I volunteered to add something unique to the thank-you gifts we gave to Off the Hook listeners who pledged their support during our final fundraising episode of the season.  During the show I drew a series of telephones, all different, all off the hook, one after another in a live marathon.  Everyone who donated to WBAI during the show's live broadcast will be receiving a random one of these.

This was lots of fun.  I did better than I thought I might both time and quality wise, and the fundraising was successful with many awesome folks supporting our listener-funded exploits.

You can listen to the episode by going to this archive page and selecting the May 18, 2011 link.
