Doosh do do duv dush!

Friday, January 29th, 2010

That’s the noise The Transformers make when they transfrom and roll out. It’s Transfromers week on Eclectic Micks this to celebrate Nick’s new book which he done wrote and drewed on his lonesome like. I got to do Guzzle, a chap that turns into a tank. See the finished version here. Pencils below.

I loved Transformers. The music always reminds me of Sugar Puffs.

The Jeweler

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

Haven’t posted any comic work in ages. Sort of because I’ve realised that most people don’t have any interest in my drawings but instead want to hear about me whacking off into a towel.

Well here are a few snippets from my favourite Twisted Tales yet. Another 96 panel epic called the Jeweler.

I wuzz nicked part three

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

Third part of I wuzz nicked is up on Spazzmoid today.

I found this mental comic too which I really liked.

I bought a little Kinder Surprise plastic soldier dude on ebay last week, I had it in 1987 and I loved him, he was like a Lego man but sort of evil and was always the baddy when I played. The one that I ordered isn’t the exact one but it looks close. So yesterday I bought a new Kinder Surprise egg to see what’s happening and they really can’t get any worse. Even the little yellow egg has changed to a non choking hinged thing, the chocolate was always shit but the toys..Jesus…no comment.

Oh yeah and speaking of choking, that film Choke is the worst piece of shit I’ve ever seen. Awful. Last year was a bad year for films for me in general. UP was good.

Artie Lange off the Stern show

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

Everybody knows that I listen to Stern everyday, haven’t missed a show in three years. My favourite dude Artie Lange is off the show after trying to kill himself and the show just isn’t the same. He has his problems and that was part of the charm, yes he’s a depressed, lying drug addict but he was the highlight of my day. I’ve been making alternate plans for when Sterns $500 five year contract is up next year but now that the final year is without Artie I’m already losing interest.

It’s a killer. The show is still a million times better than any lame radio or TV programme out there and it really eased the pain of having a day job. Each show is five hours so it would cover most of the working day for me. Okay enough with the Stern, it’s like a football fan rabbiting on when you have no interest but even if you don’t like him you can’t deny how good the Robin songs are.

Everyday before she reads the news there’s a new song that the listeners send in and here are a few of the best. Shoot my goo on Robin’s big black boobs.

Near Death

Friday, January 15th, 2010

My boy Stephen Thompson has begun work on a graphic novel. Called ‘Sister Shcnamperduke’ it’s about a minituare city with tiny Dec Shalveys running around.

No, I have no idea what it’s about but it’s called Near Death. And he’s doing a clever move by documenting the progress on a new blog. I really respect his sensibilities and although I’ve never seen any self written work, I know he has the skills. I drew a pic of him for todays Micks. He put the Friends theme tune on a loop and typed up the story on his Mac in a Starbucks.

The image he’s thinking about is this

Culled from a folder I have of every odd pic I find. New page up on Spazzmoid today too

Old bedroom walls

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

Related to yesterday’s post. I found these two pics of the crap I painted and drew on my walls when I was 14. Poncho if you’re reading this please tell me you have a picture of the Turtle vs Slash disaster that disgraced your half of the room.

Banana Splits, I was very pleased with this.

I think it was meant to say ‘turn it off or I’ll chop your hand off’. My Da is a keen proponent of randomly painting on walls, one xmas he painted this magnificent Christmas scene all over the kitchen wall and then just painted over it a few days later. We had a huge Care Bears mural in our first house and my older bro had a Roland Rat. I have those on video and will show the world as soon as I figure out editing

I’m not allowed get wet

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010

“I’m not allowed get wet”

The refrain of pussies in the summer water fights. There was always one kid who was afraid of going home soaking. I was never “not allowed get wet” and hosed them gicknahs as they balwed. Big deal, so your kid comes home wet and has to change their clothes.

I was thinking about this yesterday when I was hanging up some posters. There were kids in my class who’s parents didn’t allow them put posters on their wall and I presume they were also not allowed to get wet. I remember a friend wanted to put a wrestling poster in his bedroom and his Mam said no becasue a pin would make a hole and tape would damage the wall.

Nice.

We were allowed to paint all over the bedroom me and young Poncho shared, and he even began hacking away at the wall to try get into the house next door but that’s a different story. I can’t remember the point I was trying to make. Something about letting kids be kids. I know everybody hates him but Dice sums it up well in this off the cuff lecture. ‘Whack your bag and go back to sleep, wake up and whack it again’.

Let your kids get wet. Although judging by the amount of little knackers in my old estate you’d think they were mogwais.

Martin Lawlor Chi Health Care is a RIP OFF. Do not trust.

Monday, January 11th, 2010

Yes it’s true. Martin Lawlor from a company called Chi Health Care Ireland ripped off Bobby after drawing posters for his Community Health Fair so it is time to name and shame.

His website has already been dealt with so this post and the following posts aim to be number 1 in google so when prospective employers or contacts search for Martin Lawlor Community Health Fair Artane or Chi Health Care Ireland they will get this.

What a snake. I’ve emailed and texted him but no reply. He seemed like a nice bloke but you don’t stiff somebody who is doing you a bargain favour. He probably thinks that illustration is somehow fun and not a serious job/source of income. Plus he knows I live outside of Ireland and thinks I can be ignored.

Shame on Martin Lawlor from Community Health Care. He is not to be trusted. Feel free to link to this to help increase the Google ranking.

Here are the lame posters anyway, Phil Barrett saw them around his local shops, never mentioned them here I think.

Martin Lawlor is involved in Community Health fairs in Dublin. Martin is the owner of the now hacked Chi Health Ireland site . Martin Lawlor is also a former League of Ireland football player. But if you are planning on dealing with Martin Lawlor please be aware that he is a dishonest flake who wasted my time and has refused to pay me or even answer my mails.

I’m trying to be civil about this, pay up you clown.

Orko vs Snarf and I was arrested

Friday, January 8th, 2010

I started a comic on Spazzmoid today about the time I was nicked. Fun times!

I’m drew it all in one sitting with one pen, no pencilling or planning and it came out good. I also drew a crap picture of Orko vs Snarf for that weekly nightmare Eclectic Micks

I’ve got…nothing

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

I’ve got nothing to say. Well here’s one thing, last night was Christmas Eve for the wacky Spanish. Santa is a relatively new thing here and younger families acknowledge him but the rest wait for the three wise men as we know them. They’re the Three Magic Kings.

We did a Secret Santa thing and I got her sister’s fellah so I drew him this. Cheap bastard!
