So I pretty much HAD to draw one. Great stuff guys!!!

ALSO, CHECK OUT WHAT JOEL MADE ME!!!! Awwwwwww, thanks!!! :D :D :D

Sorry for the lack of posts. I'm trying to figure out what my new comic will be like. Maybe I should just stick to journaling right now. BTW, I just got my first print comics job! I'm freaking out about how cool it is. I'll let you know more about it when they tell me I can talk about it. MEME TIME:

The first player of this game starts with the topic of "5 Guilty Pleasures" and people who get tagged need to write an LJ entry about 5 Guilty Pleasures as well as state this rule clearly. In the end you need to choose 5 people to be tagged and list their names.

1. Reading comics 'for boys' that Tom lends me.

2. Halo. We're establishing a very geeky pattern right out of the gate, huh?

3. Mr. Rogers. I leave it on whenever I catch it. What can I say? I like puppet people. Deal.

4. Reading your friends page. Haha, your friends are so weird.

5. Ramen noodles, but apparently these are really bad for you so I've cut back.

I tag awesomeyoder, himynameisjamie, tallguywrites, jodycody, and blindmole.

Just testing out the whole multiple panel thing...I don't think I want to draw borders, just have them stop and have the space between be a color. Does that look okay?

I am burning these new incense sticks I got for Christmas like CRAZY. I REALLY like them. They're like mellow, pleasant smelling fireworks. The funny thing is that the smokey smell is way stronger than the 'scent' they're supposed to have. But I like it anyway.

I've been seeing a lot of people talking about their new X-mas Wacom tablets, so I thought I'd do a short demo of how I draw my pictures. I've had this thing for a few months now and I'm no expert, but I'm getting my process down to a several step deal.

NOTE: This is all done in Adobe Photoshop CS, using a WACOM Graphire Series tablet.

I think her name is Mae. I'm working on a last name or a title or something. I don't have a scanner here at my parents house, so you might have noticed I've just been drawing with my tablet since school let out. I'm trying to get good with it. I might do this new series in the computer entirely. This picture is a test. Maybe I should just stick to coloring my pencil sketches.

Anyway, X-MAS 2005 was nifty. Watching my little brothers open more presents than me felt right for the first time.

Getting old is weird.

Merry Whatever! I'm working on sketches for a new fictional series, and I think they're turning out pretty cute. :)

Okay, I need to go make some more cider...

Monster Dress Up Game!

Things are fine with me. Going to a Lion King birthday party tonight! So I have to go get ready. :)

Yeah, I'm bored. Cheer me up with some answers! :)

*EDIT: Hey, I'm getting in some results and I just wanted to say, don't feel bad if you miss a bunch. It's a "getting to know each other" exercise more than a "try to get all these right" one. Plus, most of the wrong answers are still pretty right. ;)

**EDIT: Okay, I think these would be more fun without the lame BUZZER every time you get one wrong. :(

Heh. Well, being home is nice. I missed my brothers a lot. I think I'm gonna take them to King Kong today or tomorrow. I have this serious headache right now though. And my room is cold. Whiney whine whine whine.

I'm thinking about starting a fictional comic here instead, since not every day in the Life of Mollie is all that interesting or funny.

Maybe I'll get bundled up and go take some photos outside.

Ahem. Well, that was nice. :)

Before the boys packed up the xbox, they let me check my character out and make some adjustments. so in case you're interested in creating your own Mollie to FRAG, here you go:


TODAY'S RAMEN: Hot n' Spicy Chicken flavor, with honey. Again, spicy ramen requires a glass of milk on the side. Tasty rating: ****

today was my last final (went...okaaay) and probably my last halo game for a while. i'm pretty happy with this drawing, so i went ahead and made it into a WALLPAPER. :)

OH, and i really liked the Chronicles of Narnia! It was a movie made for little kids, which of course, I totally am.

TODAY'S RAMEN: Oriental flavor, with honey, cinnamon+sugar, and hot sauce. yes, i've posted this one before, but I'm now declaring it my signature recipe. Its definitely my favorite.
Tasty rating: ******

Haha, actually it's get your butt kicked by exams time. Later.

I just got up, because I went to bed way too early yesterday. Yes, my schedule is all crazy. In a couple of days I'll be heading back home to my family for the holidays. Today I have only to study and to go see the Narnia movie.

Some people have pointed out that I have a lot more friends than is usual for someone who's only been posting for a week and a half. So...thanks you guys. I'm really enjoying hearing back from you all. :)

Today's Ramen: Chili Flavor, with a little lemonade and some mustard. I had to eat this with two full glasses of milk.
Tasty rating: ****

Wherein you may see all the little pencil smudges and coloring outside the lines I do on a regular basis. Enjoy. :)
