Sometimes, my puns are classy.



Culture, n.:

The combined knowledge of both surrealist plays and popular science fiction film series.

PUNIONS

I'm sorry, I can't beat that title. I'm done.

IGNORE THE DISTURBING FUZZY UNDERCARRIAGE

Double the pleasure, double the pun.


He seeks the TOOTH!
No, that's terrible.
He's SWAMPED with clues?
Ugh, no.

he's a crocodile that wears a hat and smokes a pipe and solves crimes there you go

Sluuug? Sluuug.

I am not even slightly kidding when I say that, if I were able to choose a superpower, it would be the ability to move like a slug.

I mean, I wouldn't be able to save people or whatever, but who said superpowers come with responsibility? (Shut up, Uncle Ben, you're dead)

Mostly I'd want this because it would mean I could move around with zero effort because I am super lazy.

Saying 'sluuug' while slugging is a necessary part.

A Laughing Eel?

Literally what the title says. It was a request, but I can't remember why, I just remember being too lazy to draw well.

Oh wait, that's most of the time.

Oh no! It's the fuzz(y panda)!

Because... that's... it's what they're called... and pandas... they eat bamboo... ha.

I would love to drive a car with fuzzy panda legs.

I slove you? I sloth-ve you? Slothuve? Whatever.

Yeahhh I went through a sloth-drawing phase. It ended when I realised I couldn't draw sloths.
Sloth sloths you,

Have I mentioned how weird the requests I get are?

Yeah.

This one is my friend, as a peach.

Reading Time with Pickle

Based on the Regina Spektor song, 'Reading Time with Pickle'.
Don't expect it to make much more sense having heard the lyrics, though.
Listen to the song for context!

Ain't she ADORABLE.

I had a dream...

...that I designed a sexy wetsuit and made loads of money off it. The minute I woke up, I felt like I'd had the best idea ever, then slowly realised the pointlessness of such a thing.

Hugs + cake = eternal loneliness?

It's another request. I took it in a fairly depressing direction...

Beeeeees?!

Arrested Development, one of the best TV shows ever created (FACT) is being brought back for a fourth season THIS MONTH. In my excitement, I drew a lot of Arrested Development things. This is one of them.

If you haven't seen Arrested Development, do it. Now.

A bizarre combination of the 'BEES?!' joke and the 'Banana Stand' joke. I apologise if you haven't seen Arrested Development and you don't get it. Actually, I apologise if you have seen Arrested Development and you still don't get it.

The weirdest request I have received. So far.

"A humanoid rhinoceros in a smoking jacket playing gin rummy with a pterodactyl with the face of Steven Spielberg."

Puns and photo filters!

Requested a while ago by a good friend of mine, here is a Tie Bride. PUNS!



15 April, 2013

More requests!

"An eagle who is dissatisfied with his desk job."
And of course, there had to be a pun.

I didn't say it was a good pun.

What a Titanic Jerk.

Challenge: Draw a misogynistic iceberg.
...Why not.

Unfortunately, the deleted scenes of Titanic didn't include a giant, anthropomorphised talking iceberg. That probably would have changed the tone of the film.

Spellins Biee

So, I've been enjoying sharing my real world art with you guys. This blog has become much more than it first was, and that can only be a good thing.
Recently, I did publicity for a student musical called the 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, which, let me tell you, is a bitch to fit on a poster.
Below are my designs, which were up all over campus and on the hoodies we wore to promote the show!
And a bonus, a design I didn't end up using:

T-Rexeter

So, most of what I do at university involves the student media, which is made up of the paper, the website, the TV station, and the radio station. Not too long ago, I had an impromptu radio show called Bastille Hour, which meant that I had finally completed the task of having been involved with every part of our media (Xmedia).

We decided to come up with a term for this: the Xmediasaurus. Below is a requested drawing of this media-loving dinosaur.

Sorry that many of you will have to read this essay in order to understand the context, but I'm proud of my status as media dino!
