Draw Every Day 5/7/12: Charlie Mad Action Ready

My heart is absolutely broken. I have become so attached to Charlie Mad and the whole idea behind the "Arachis Hypogaea" project, but sadly, this will be the last time I draw any character from this universe. I feel like I'm losing a friend.

Draw Every Day 5/6/12: In the Way of Charlie Mad

Ah... the thumbnail I did of this is probably a bit better than the ink, but I'm still quite happy with this. I've grown quite attached to Charlie Mad.

Draw Every Day 4/14/12: Charlie Mad and his Machine Gun Attachment

This time out, I made his head too small. But I finished the piece anyway. I'm not happy with it as I made the gun way to small and left his left arm intact. I'll have another go at this at some point. It might have to wait until I actually draw the full "Arachis Hypogaea" series.

Draw Every Day 4/13/12: Unnamed "Arachis Hypogaea" character

I started off wanting to draw Charlie Mad from my "Arachis Hypogaea" series but ended up making the head waaaay too big. However, I liked the look so I kept drawing. Not sure who this is yet, but I'm sure I'll be able to sneak him into AH somewhere.

Draw Every Day for 5/2/12: El Knows Why

Here is El, overlooking his empire, knowing why Charlie has been gifted and tormented...

Draw Every Day for 5/1/12: Charlie Mad Wonders Why

I'm starting to draw more of my storyline for Arachis Hypogaea. I'm finding it a tough premise to put out of my head. It's been with me for years now, really. Oh and I will never draw a mirror again. #JustSayin

Draw Every Day for 4/29/12: ?????????????????

"Human Again" from Arachis Hypogaea.

Draw Every Day for 4/28/12: El from Arachis Hypogaea

This is the main villain from Arachis Hypogaea. I wonder if I should color this comic, after all. I was thinking about leaving it B&W but the color of El's tie and handkerchief has meaning. Or maybe I'll just leave some bits in color and others not?

Draw Every Day for 4/27/12: Charlie Mad (Before the Attack)

I haven't had time to work on ?????????? at all, so the next few DEDs are going to be character drawings. You've seen them before in other DEDs, but I'm drawing them again for practice (and it's all I've got time for).

Draw Every Day 3/27/12: Nyan Bunny #2

Another take on my ????????(Chisai Chigaimasu) piece.  I didn't like the simplicity of the bunny last time, so I gave it another go.  Still a little "meh" in my mind.  See the previous version here.

Draw Every Day 3/26/12: ?????????? (p3)

Page 3 (or panel 3) in "Arachis Hypogaea".   The final in the preliminary series of panels/pages from a comic I'm developing.  If you'd like to see an English version, please let me know. It'll take me ages if only I'm interested in the English version.

Draw Every Day 3/25/12: ?????????? (p2)

Page 2 (or panel 2) in "Arachis Hypogaea".   At the suggestion of my good friend, Stew, I will likely be redrawing these panels in a larger format for publication.  Not sure how soon this will happen, but if you like the look of this and would like to see an English version, please tell me.  It'll get done faster if I know you're interested.

Draw Every Day 3/24/12: ?????????? (p1)

Page 1 (or panel 1) in "Arachis Hypogaea". I'll do an English version eventually, but my goal is to write it in Japanese first.  Then redo the Japanese text in English digitally.

Draw Every Day 3/23/12: ?????????? (cover)

One of my big goals in life is to tell a story entirely in Japanese.  So, "Arachis Hypogaea" is my first serious attempt.  I figure, if I tell the story in Japanese AND pictures, I can have an easier time than if I, say, tried to write a novel in Japanese.  This is the cover. For the next few days of DED, I'll be drawing panels of a comic strip out. Or, maybe these will be panels in a full size comic.  Not sure at this point.

Draw Every Day 2/22/12: Mister Vin

No comment on this guy. I'm not happy with the rifle, but aside from that, he's nearly perfect.

Draw Every Day 2/21/12: She'll be YOUR "Little Sister"...

This is the fourth in a series of drawings depicting the characters from America's favorite comic strip AFTER the fall of human civilization.  Each character grows up a bit and does what they have to do to survive.  I've got a story brewing behind these drawings and I'm thinking I may do a comic strip series.

Draw Every Day February 19, 2012: After Infrastructure Fails, Man's Best Friend Must...

This is the third in a series of drawings featuring what America's favorite comic strip characters would be like after the fall of human civilization.  Thank goodness for fair use, right? :P

Draw Every Day February 18, 2012: Mistress Lucille and a Client

This is the first (or second, really) in a series of drawings featuring what America's favorite comic strip characters would be like after the fall of human civilization.  Thank goodness for fair use, right? :P

Draw Every Day January 18, 2012: Charlie Mad II

This is a sequel to my "Charlie Mad" custom toy piece.  Charlie Mad II may be just a drawing, but he's got TWO CYBORG ARMS!!  KICK ASS!!
