Ah, I was listenin' to Gorillaz the other day and I had forgotten how much I loved them!
I know they're fictional characters, but I want to commemorate their b-days... though I only remembered about 2D and forgot that Russel's and Muds' birthdays have already passed too... (I'll do sketches for them too! (eventually))

And of course I love Noodle & Muds...

Haha, okay, so Bruce Banner really isn't that much of a wimp- it'd be funny if he was tho and started randomly bawling around all the other Avengers.
Tony would so not dig.

But I really can't decide how I wanna draw Bruce; I keep making him different, but I just can't come to one way I'm totally happy with.

I really <3 Spidey. ;)

I might clean this up and fix mistakes... but I'm probably not gonna.

Well The Hulk was fantastic! But it was only so because of the talented Edward Norton- without him I wouldn't have given a rat's ass about the movie.
But yea, it was really really good, no thanks to Marvel. Those money grubbing assholes:

I don't believe they lead Norton on saying he could add creative input, then take it away and expect him not to get upset. And now people are trying to fault him for being pissed at the studios.
Edward Norton is getting a whole lot more shit than he deserves. =\
Team Norton!

It's...

What is?






Anyway, yea, so I've been watchin' this anime Oofuri (that's an abbreviation tho 'cause I can't remember the whole name- it's this baseball anime). I can't figure out whether it's BL or just effeminate tho!

And finally- I just finished Choke by Chuck Palahniuk and it was absolutely AMAZING! Just fantastic really! It's your classic tale about a sex addict who pretends to choke on food in restaurants for pity money and attention. :D
Here's my mock-up sketch of one of the most memorable scenes in the exposition. I think I'll end up finishing this one too!

Haha, I dunno.
Noooo!
Nooo Nekkid-ness!

Why do people always feel the need to censor the penis? It's really not that big of a deal. All guys have 'em and if ya' haven't noticed, there's a lot of guys in the world. Ha ha.

Lame Camera + Lame Lighting = my bad, but they'll look awesome when finished!

AAAhhh! I love Paul McCartney and his song "Dance Tonight"! It's so fun!!! :3

Which reminds me, I need to make a list of guitar supplies I need so I don't forget:

-strings for the electric
-strings for the acoustic
-guitar tuner
-2 small guitar straps

I'm sure it'll be much easier to tune tho when I get new strings- my acoustic's had the same strings for 8 years!!! D:
And how do those automatic guitar tuners work? Are they really good?

Yea, 'cause I'm seriously seriously busy. Like so serious that I shouldn't even be on here! DX But just because I really do want to keep going with this whole Art Blog, I don't want to break my momentum.
So here's SIMON!

He had a lizard on his face in the old version of a movie and while I registered I wanted to draw a lizard, I somehow ended up with a gecko.


And of course,

SUCKS TO YOUR ASS-MAR!!!
Piggy was ADORABLE in the movie, I don't care what anybody says.

Hopefully I can do LOTF/MMPR soon! D:

Cats...?

I've just recently noticed that Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy seriously looks like a cat and now I wonder if anyone else has noticed this too. D:









I've also noticed that Joe looks like Linguini from Ratatouille.

I find that derogatory comment bassist!

Ha. Ha. And another, Ha.
I think coming up with royally lame puns is a gift really, for the pun is the cousin of sarcasm. :D
But I really do love bassists! Somehow they all turn out to have great bone structure! Like Mikey Way of My Chemical Romance:

\(*-*)/ ohpah!

I'm still not too great at drawing monsieur Alex James of Blur (though these sketches were a while ago and I haven't tried drawin' him since). =\

A-ha, my next goal for lovely Alex- Alex James!'(sing to "Lovely Rita" by The Beatles) is to do something with THIS!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, jk.


Imma get sommore coffee! =D

Damon Albarn = SEX ON LEGS

I mean as a musician! Not as a *cough*sex symbol*cough*! :D

Anyway, I just felt like compiling some sketches of the amazing composer and I was compelled to add the one of him climbing the scaffolding like he did in this performance of "Day Upon Day". I'm really not sure whether this is leaning towards "drinking is bad" or "drunks are funny", but I doubt Damon would really want the performance still floatin' on the net. :3

Procrastination.

muscles tense...
the world's closing in and making a point of boldness,
telling me to wait a minute and start later.
2 in the morning
the ringing in my ears is metallic and the mirror shows me for the vampire I am
hands shaking...
i should start
i need to fight that my mind
the one that says "you can't work, you're just not ready"
the one that gives me this ADD
got to work, but I'm screwed
let's put off what we can do today 'till tomorrow
and see how deep I'm
massage my eyes and take a leak
then continue to circle
all because there's "stuff" to do first
like staring at the wall
shaking shaking towards the end
the suspense it terrible, I hope it'll last
so I'll give a job that's completely half-assed
just because
the minutes tick away my sanity
and make me wonder if I'm really sick in the head to be doing this
my heart's palpitating and putting lead boots on my feet
all because...
oh, the anxiety
oh, the humanity
so damn lazy I just want to smash my head against the keyboard
then I won't need to finish...
