Awkward Turtle

Doodle Cakes

Damn it Holly, why did you remind me these existed.

Health Quest

Seriously, squats are the worst. I do them anyway though because the nice lady in my workout dvd says to. Click the image for full resolution.

Why I HAVE to Work With Kids

2011-06-21T19:37:00.000-07:00

Okay, so I disappeared for several months because a class (that was in two parts and the WORST THING EVER) was killing my motivation to do anything extra of any kind at all. But now that class is dead and gone forever and I never have to do it again, hooray! Someday I will be finished with school. Ill be done with undergrad in december which will be really weird.

Stupid Bees

2011-03-15T21:06:00.001-07:00

There is no emotion I can not represent with an animal. I should make an ABC poster of my bad feelings zoo, heh. As always, click the pic to make it bigger/legible.

The Blehs

2011-01-18T20:29:00.000-08:00

It was one of those days where I just felt meh. I tend to dishes on those days.

How to Not Get Punched by Me

2011-01-11T14:50:00.001-08:00

It never ceases to amaze me how strangers will assume it is okay to touch you. IT IS NEVER OKAY TO PUT YOUR HANDS ON SOMEONE YOU DON'T KNOW WITH OUT PERMISSION. That is my opinion, anyway. Oh, as always, click the image if it is too small.

I am the Champion

2011-01-02T21:49:00.001-08:00

I have never thrown up due to too much alcohol, it's true. My tummy is very good at saying when I will regret more. Also some news, I am planning on updating every Monday now. hooray, comics!

Unstabil-i-tees

2010-07-02T09:44:00.001-07:00

So I'm Not Dead!

2010-06-13T19:32:00.000-07:00

I blame depression boa constrictor for the lack of updates. I have not been feeling up to doing the stuff I have to do, so doing extra things like comics, which I normally love doing, has been really hard. I think I'm mostly over the hump and I have a bunch of Turtles sketched out, so updates should resume to some state of normalcy (I'm really going to try to get back to the once every Wednesday-Tuesdayish schedule).

Gelato Unicorn

2010-04-21T08:15:00.001-07:00

Hey look! I'm not dead! It's just the end of the semester so I'm super busy and thus haven't had time for crazy comics. The Gelato Unicorn: give him what he wants or he'll eat you. According to my friends this is who I am on the inside?

My Parts and Bits

2010-03-23T22:38:00.001-07:00

Anxiety Lion

2010-03-10T21:24:00.001-08:00

I find characterizing my anxiety as a stupid lion helps me believe I can make it go away. Incidentally, things are really great right now (for real, I'm not being sarcastic), I've just had this idea for a while.

The Fun Zone

2010-03-03T18:49:00.000-08:00

Yes this actually happened more or less like this. I apologize for NOTHING!

Octo Cat, You Sure are Creepy as Hell

2010-02-23T18:31:00.001-08:00

I like things with too many limbs.

Bluh

2010-02-17T21:17:00.001-08:00

This is barely even an exaggeration of how many tissues I have gone through this week.

I Hate Axe

2010-02-09T22:43:00.001-08:00

There is a guy who sits in front of me in my Statistics class who wears Axe instead of showering. I wish he would go away.

Security

2010-02-03T09:03:00.001-08:00

The Baron

2010-01-26T19:32:00.001-08:00

As cool as Steampunk is, it is equally mock-able.

Say Maybe

2010-01-17T14:00:00.000-08:00

For the record, I have never been high. I wonder if anyone believes that? Eh, I'm too weird to be on drugs.

The Cons of Being a Mermaid

2010-01-02T12:30:00.000-08:00

Today I say screw you rules of art, I DO WHAT I WANT! Pffffffffffffffffffff who needs to follow human anatomy and color in the lines anyway?

Squid Cat

2009-12-21T23:52:00.001-08:00

Puppies are Adorable (and are ruining my life)

2009-12-20T23:25:00.000-08:00

This is a serious concern in this modern day and age.

No time!

2009-11-04T11:21:00.001-08:00

Sorry, but until I turn in my final studio project next Friday, there won't be any updates :(

I'm Ready!

2009-10-26T11:11:00.001-07:00

Sorry for the lack of updates, as the semester goes on it gets more and more hectic! X_x Hopefully I'll be able to do at least one or two crazy drawings a week for the next month.

A Novel

2009-10-12T18:12:00.001-07:00

He lives in a geodesic dome made of gears. More about him later in the week.

No Tablet 2: A Drama

2009-09-27T22:34:00.001-07:00

One of my teeth is causing me an obnoxious amount of pain in a way that's going to cause me to be on a lot of pain killers until I can get to the dentist. They kill my focus pretty bad so this might be the only post this week.

Please Note

2009-09-23T10:47:00.001-07:00

Sometimes I just want to wear a silly outfit and not be bothered about it, ok? Jeez.

Nightmare

2009-09-22T11:03:00.000-07:00

No comic today (it's a pretty busy week so expect some turbulence). But here is my final animation project from the spring semester.

Octoman is OCD

2009-09-20T22:27:00.000-07:00

My Day

2009-09-17T21:13:00.001-07:00

Pretension Fail

2009-09-16T22:02:00.001-07:00

Bubble pipes are the coolest. Does anyone know where to get one that looks like a real tobacco pipe? All I can find are plastic ones that look like corn cobs.

Fuzzy Bits

2009-09-15T21:04:00.001-07:00

Sarah is No Fun

2009-09-14T21:24:00.000-07:00

Sarah actually is fun, but always tells me I can not fly. She is sooooooo mean!

It's Not Meant to Be

2009-09-13T21:00:00.000-07:00

I'm sorry no one loves you broccoli, I always thought you were good with lemon.

Doxphins

2009-09-06T09:35:00.001-07:00

My dreams are very strange.

If I Had Money

2009-08-24T20:42:00.000-07:00

Being a furry has not changed me AT ALL.

The Cupcake's Revenge

2009-08-19T23:45:00.000-07:00

Peach actually is my favorite flavor.

No Tablet!

2009-08-18T19:39:00.000-07:00

Yah!!!

Two Views

2009-08-15T16:48:00.001-07:00

I do wonder if they'll ever stop thinking of me as the devil. Probably, because they seem to warm up when I come bearing veggies.

Guinea Pig with Gun

2009-08-14T16:39:00.001-07:00

Some of you may have seen this before, but I've things have been a little hectic with me moving back in to my apartment and such (especially because my girlfriend, Sarah, is there :3). I'll have a proper comic up tomorrow. In case you were wondering, the arty piece in the background was done by my friend Kat: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/mikuaaparo/ . She does cool furry art and is now accepting commissions (which can include porny stuff if that tickles your fancy).

The Future

2009-08-11T22:09:00.001-07:00

It's gonna' be awesome.

Don't Smoke!

2009-08-10T01:32:00.000-07:00

Smoking, it's bad. In ANY amount. Just like pre-marital sex.

NO WANT

2009-08-05T12:25:00.001-07:00

I may have to change my update schedule to mon-wed-fri. When school starts up it might not be realistic for me to expect to be able to do a post everyday, especially if I want to regularly update Metamorphosis.

Imaginary Pet Zoo

2009-08-03T20:42:00.001-07:00

Yes, I want a skunk. It's not that farfetched! They used to be popular as pets until there was a rabies scare. For now I will have to be satisfied with my cavies.

Life Coaching

2009-08-02T22:16:00.000-07:00

It amuses me how people will pay someone with no qualifications to tell them what to do. Results may vary.

Design Camp Moments

2009-07-30T22:57:00.000-07:00

And this is why I wish Design Camp could somehow be a year round gig for me. Teaching animation and hanging out with really bright and talented kids is just incredible. Maybe I will be a high-school art teacher or something. Or at some point maybe post a Craigslist add for portfolio consulting or something.

Stages of Insomnia (also news!)

2009-07-29T20:05:00.001-07:00

I have made a the decision to stop dicking around already. I'm gonna' put real effort into regular updates. My current goal is to spend one hour doing an Awkward Turtle daily (Monday through Friday). They may look a bit rough at first, because an hour really isn't much in the grand scheme of things. However, I believe I will get used to this pacing over time. You can expect at the very least a doodle of a cute animal if you choose to check in daily.

Manly!

2009-07-27T21:19:00.001-07:00

I think I shall start a plastic tiara collection.

I has Fluffies

2009-05-02T12:10:00.001-07:00

These are my babies, Abby and Fiona (from left to right).

CAVIES :D

2009-04-29T20:44:00.001-07:00

Guinea pigs have built a nest in my brain. They are all I have thought about for the past week almost. Seriously. I'm getting two girls at some point over the summer. I will rescue the piggies! And Ima buy them a big 2x4 C&C cage and hand make them fleece cozies and pick them dandelion greens and clovers and and AND LOVE THEM FOREVER.

Cupcakes. Give them to me. NOW.

2009-04-18T00:24:00.001-07:00

I have no idea what the f**k prompted me to do this. I really don't. The crappiness is intentional.

Animation Experiment

2009-04-08T00:09:00.000-07:00

Just an experiment with light painting I did for Studio.

Dreams Are Weird

2009-02-15T23:00:00.000-08:00

So I had a dream about rescuing animals from a genetic engineering lab. Things like a half beetle, half possum that could morph its appearance in a chameleon-y sort of way, a really big jelly fish that could function on land and of course, the jelly frog. We got a lot of them out but someone put jelly frog in a water fountain and he melted. This made me fall to my knees and cry in the dream (which was after the cat from the movie version of Coraline was an a-hole to me about how it was all my fault).

Meh

2009-02-13T11:38:00.001-08:00

So, that's how I'm feeling about life in general right now. Ararara.

New Comic

2009-01-29T20:07:00.001-08:00

Ok, so I know I haven't been around much lately... But, I have a good reason! I finally am making a serious commitment to my epic-adventure comic, Metamorphosis. I said I would post the link for it when I had five pages up and I do. The address is www.drunkduck.com/Metamorphosis . It'll update every weekend. I'm working as hard as I can to really do this. Please support me by reading it and telling other people to read it (also maybe getting an account on drunkduck.com and giving me delicious comments, but I don't expect that).

The Future is Scary

2009-01-07T02:05:00.000-08:00

So, I listen to music to avoid letting it eat me. I wish I knew what I want to be, "when I grow up." Pfft, like that will ever happen. I guess I'll survive regardless of what happens but it's the not knowing that makes me all angsty and crazy.

Christmas Bragging!

2008-12-27T00:24:00.001-08:00

Btw, Batman is not my character, the pics are only for reference (so don't sue me DC/WB [I don't have anything worth taking anyway!]) The camera is a Sanyo Xacti HD1000. I love having parents that spoil me :).

This is the amazing, stuff that rhymes with Clare, poster. Kate and Sasha do the amazing things!

If I Was On as Many Drugs As People Think I am

2008-12-07T20:42:00.000-08:00

I Love LEAF!

2008-11-26T12:37:00.000-08:00

So I made an add through the magic of rotoscoping (tracing over video frame by frame).

AAAAAAAAAAH!

2008-11-05T15:51:00.000-08:00

I'm super happy Obama won but the way Prop 8 turns out makes me so mad. People are assholes and I throw the next president at them.

Weird Animal Things

2008-10-29T12:55:00.001-07:00

Dun Dun DUN

2008-10-09T18:19:00.000-07:00

This is my midterm project. I had a lot of fun with it (which is the only real point to living). There is no sound for the first ten seconds or so.

More Animation Filter

2008-10-08T12:30:00.000-07:00

I just had the busiest couple of weeks in the history of insanity. I'll be posting more comics (and my midterm project :D) soon, promise!

Furry FOO

2008-09-30T00:44:00.000-07:00

I don't really identify as furry, but I know so may damn furries I might as well be.

Notes on Japan

2008-09-28T19:37:00.000-07:00

I love Japan, but it will never love me :'(.

Designer's Lamentation

Energy Drinks

2008-09-18T19:02:00.001-07:00

Nos is in my opinion the worst energy drink (in terms of which one tastes the most like cough syrup). It's not even packaged in a way that makes it look like it won't poison you. I am partial to Vault because it is cheep like soda, but has a decent amount of caffeine. The red Amp is also really good. Red Bull is unacceptable. By itself. As is Jager. *wink*

My Girl

2008-09-16T18:05:00.001-07:00

Dun Dun Dun Dun DUNUHNUHNANANA! Behold my protagonist. She's got AMNESIA! Which is probably a good thing if you know what she's been through. Which you don't because I haven't actually produced that comic in any accessible way. I'm currently working on more detailed stuffs on my epic adventure comic. It will be a for reals webcomic soon, I promise!

SURPRISE

2008-09-08T12:13:00.000-07:00

The line-art for the people and such was all done in Illustrator. This was done in an attempt to make the lines 'cleaner' (where it matters). Tell me what you think! If you ever have ideas or stuff you want to discuss about, my email is wallacescreator@gmail.com!

Inside the Brain of Moohead

2008-09-03T07:53:00.000-07:00

Here's another crazy little animation I did. I WILL RULE YOU ALL WITH MY INSANITY. Or... I will take orders from clients for forty years and then retire, and then die. Life is awesome! :D

Creepy Cat

2008-08-31T13:15:00.000-07:00

Posts may become slower because of school and my creative energy being pulled in many directions, so I thought I'd show you what I was up to in class.

Seriously

2008-08-27T17:35:00.001-07:00

So many people have asked me where to find pot, but I just don't know. I JUST DON'T KNOW!

So yah...

2008-08-23T09:07:00.000-07:00

SO MANY BUTTONS!!! what do they do, OH GOD, WHAT DO THEY DO?

Woosh. That is all.

My Life's Philosophy

2008-07-28T16:53:00.000-07:00

!Helvetica is the boring font that tells people what can't be a hat! Rockwell is the defiant slab-seriffed font of AWESOMENESS! Also, I realized I hadn't been putting the copyright thing on my stuff... woops!

Why do people have to die?

2008-07-22T16:57:00.001-07:00

Click on it for the full view. Otherwise it might not be legible. Man, Dark Knight was AMAZING. Mostly due to Heath Ledger's striking performance, God rest his talented soul.

2008-07-16T18:43:00.000-07:00

Me and my girl. Androgyny is fun!
