I’ll have a new mini-comic for FLUKE on April 12,2008. It’s called 26 robots and it’s a full color collection of robots in alpabetical order. Drop me a line if you can’t make it to FLUKE and you’d like a copy. Not sure of the price right now but I’ll let you know ASAP.

Today I went to my son’s school and drew robots with his classmates!

Go here and check out what all the kids did and download the template for yourself.

I like having something brand new at every show I go to. It doesn’t always happen but I try. For ACE I continued my theme of Flowers and Robots. Ending up with 3 out of 5 being on topic. Not so shabby I guess.

What is shabby is the scan job I did on these suckers. The colors either get completely washed out or really saturated. Now I don’t have the originals to adjust them like. But hey, I was walking out the door so I’m glad I even took the time to capture them in the first place.

Can you guess the 3 that sold at the show?

I’m working on some water color robots to have for ACE. I bought some ink and a brush to see if I liked the way it worked. I tested the it last night real quick on the water color paper I have. It was fun to do so I think I’ll use it on the final water colors and scan them for you when I finish. Or you could just come to ACE and take one home with you!

I got a horrible scan of this little water color robot that was sent to in a package of comic goodies. I managed to get a fuzzy picture of it with my camera before it left. Hope you find a happy home little guy.

One of a few robots that I recieved for my birthday. My sister got it from the World Market which is one of the last places I’d expect to see a robot.

Did you know I love robots? I wouldn’t say I’m totally obsesed by robots, but I like them a lot. So it isn’t a surprise how much I like We The Robots. It’s a new web comic by Chris Harding and it’s updated 3 times a week so you don’t get overloaded with new comics each week.

Basically it’s the real world reflected in robot form. But he does some robot specific jokes now and then. I highly recommend you checking it out. You can start at the begining, but I recomend starting here and read a few till you get hooked and then go back and read the intro.

My good pals over at the Dollar Bin have posted a video of me trying to draw. Watch in horror as I fumble my way through an entire drawing without the aid of my trusty computer. NFTWOH (Not for the weak of heart). If you think this is sort of movie magic trickery, then I’ll draw you a picture and mail it to you. I will except your challange for only 10 dollars (limited time only). Yes you can make a one sentence request, but nothing to fancy now. I’m not very good.

Get a one of a kind drawing sent right to your home. Just 10 earth credits (US).

On Halloween night after all the spooking is done.
