I know I would've been happier with this if it went up in June and the next page was already done. But it didn't and it's not, so...

Ok, trying to get things back on track. Let's do this thing!

Yeah, Stellan's got his groove thang back, baby. Word balloons got a little crowded and aren't super clear to follow, but that's because that drawing got in the way. I keep the bath water when I toss out the baby!

Really fond of this one. I felt like I was really making a comeback even though I've been here for years.

Page 7 is scanned, about to get that ready for posting tomorrow afternoon. Tomorrow night, I'll have scanned page 8. 7 is better than 6 and 8 is great.

RAMEKIN'S ARCH NEMESIS: NIK EMAR

We never had a name for the character Dennis Hopper had signed on to play in the Ramekin film (This was back when he would do anything, script or not. So, 1975-2008), and we never had a charater for the name Nik Emar that Kenny just came up with last week. So, I decided to combine the two. At least for now. All of this can be nixed. Or Nikked?

I also decided to go with a younger Dennis Hopper, Rebel Without a Cause era. Except I think I rounded his jaw a little more when i inked it. Shoulda been slightly sharper. Is this what he'll look like in the main story? Or is this him as a youth criminal from the flashbacks? Will there be flashbacks?

Oh, and since in my first character design stab he's just a guy in jeans and a t-shirt, I decided to Kirby him up a bit, give him that "you're not from around here" look all the girls clamor for.

Less than one week without Vitamin C pills and I've got the flu. I'm getting ready for MoCCA: printing, assembling. Or, I was last night. Now I'm art work and dying of flu. This won't be ready for MoCCA anyway, but I hope to reach the 20% mark before the show.

MORE RAMEKIN IDEAS

So, after showing Kenny my first Ramekin sketch, he came back with this awesome President of Funk:



So, I decided to go back at my Ramekin drawing and give it another go:



A little less Who. Ignore the feet. I ran out of paper and should've cropped it better.

BAD IDEA? RAMEKIN DESIGN SKETCH

With all the projects I've started without finishing, probably the last thing I needed to do was throw up a sketch for a RAMEKIN idea. But now I've gone done it.

Basically Gilbert Gottfried by way of the 80s anarchist cartoonists (McCarthy, Bolland, Sienkiewicz, McKeever, Baker, etc)

There's ol' Balls Ears! Like LOST, the storytelling structure is changing. Unlike LOST, I promise no Kate episodes. I wonder if anyone will get my reference. Maybe after I build on it a little more.

Another page of something else also done.

On the other hand, the news of Alexander McQueen's suicide is the latest in a depressing string of stories.
