James Turner of the wonderful Beaver and Steve recently held a contest to find a guest artist for 5 or so comics. I, as well as SEVERAL others, entered, drawing a comic based on a script which he provided. Somehow, my work of genius was overlooked and this one chosen the winner. I didn't even make it among the runners up! I'm not sure how James does such a great job at Beaver and Steve, being obviously BLIND and all... SCREW YOU JAMES!
Nah, just kidding. There were lots of good entries, though I think I would've picked this cartoonish-styled one as the winner. Only after I drew my comic, did I see in the forums that he was encouraging people to interpret Beaver and Steve in their own style, rather than a duplication of his style.
On to Todd and Penguin... Thanks for all the email regarding the comic recently. For those who thought Monday's comic was the happy ending of the storyline, you haven't been reading long, have you?
A new comic is up tonight. I think the last panel might be the most honest exchange I've ever drawn.
No new Taking Up Space this week, yet. Sorry. I'll try for Friday. I've been swamped. There WILL be a Todd and Penguin Friday, though. No... really.Labels: beaver and steve, todd and penguin |
