Comic of the Week 1/11/2010

I wasn't feeling very well yesterday. I was trying to keep from falling asleep at work, and I felt sick. Then I go up to the college to meet for the Baptist Integris project, finding out that they met a couple hours earlier than I was told. I was a bit peeved, but I did get a book bought, and figured out that I won't get my graduation notifications, which I filled out last spring semester, until this March.

I feel much better today, not as tired, but still a bit funny feeling. I think it's allergies.

I think this week's comic goes well with those kinds of days...

Bad Day Comic: Original Posting: 4-1-2009
Just some sibling squabble at the breakfast table among Coty & D.G.

D.G. ended it abruptly...poor Coty. That's his favorite hat too...

*Just a reminder that Coty is a coyote and was adopted by D.G.'s parents, who are dingos, when he was a baby. Coty is older than D.G. by one day, and likes to bring it up so many times that she's tired of him mentioning it to her.

COMIC OF THE WEEK 1-4-2010

Well, I hope everyone had a good New Year. I know I did. =D I've been trying to get around to do some sketches, traditional drawings, and some school work. However, since I work in the insurance business, it's tough to find extra time to work on them...

Misinterpretation Comic... (original posting
February 27, 2009)

Well this comic came out totally different than what was originally planned, but this seems like a better gag.

I don't know why Jenni would walk in the bathroom when J.Q.'s in there...they're sibs.

Poor J.Q. with no hair...
At least it'll grow back...eventually!

Lol @ J.Q.'s noodle arms in the top row...

You've got to read the products before using them!

Comic of the Week 12/28/2009

I hope everyone had a great Christmas, and didn't get a ton a snow like we did here. The roads are a bit slick, but we're all fine. You all have a great New Years too in "Internet Land"!

MOVIE NIGHT COMIC (Original posting: 2/20/2009)


Maybe some movies are better left unmentioned in public...especially if one of them is your favorite!

Coty really wants a date with Jenni...but good ol' VHS saves the day for Jen!

Poor Coty...He just needs to get with the times!

Comic of the Week 12/18/2009

Sorry for the delay of posts last week. I had finals to do, and I had my wisdom teeth taken out last Friday.

Here's a comic just noting out the different pronunciations of words depending on what accent someone has...(J.Q. has an Aussie accent, while Coty has a more Americanized one)

ORIGINAL POSTING: 2/15/2009


J.Q.'s gotta learn someday...

I drew this as a joke to my friend from Australia, Trisha, when she said it's not a good pick-up line. It's still funny though!

Integris Baptist Project

I am currently in the Video Game Programming & Animation at Rose State College. It is a fairly new program...only about 3 or so years old. I have already earned my Associates degree last summer in only one year, because I had a previous Associates from OCCC, and some of the classes transferred over. They will soon be adding on a Bachelor's degree to their program through OSU Tech, and hopefully it will start this fall. So in the mean time, I'm taking new classes and others that are being rewritten do to more available information and research.

This past June, Integris Baptist got a message about our program and thought it was a good idea for us to come up with some games and a tour for their new Cancer Research building that just opened up. So our professor talked to a few of us: Me, Mark, Jojo, and Jordan. We brainstormed and came up with a few ideas.

Mark is currently working on a game which is basically cleaning tissue cells from spreading globs of cancer. Basically you rotate around the tissue sphere while shooting radiation beam and other projectiles to "clean" each cell from the cancer.

Jojo and Jordan are coming up with a traditional card game idea using the doctors, their skills, and equipment. I think it'll have similar rules to the "Magic" cards.

The professor is working on creating a tour of the building for people, while I'll be making a scavenger hunt/maze game. It'll be a side-view seek and find style play. The goal of the game is to find all the pieces of the Proton-gun (which is a new feature at the Cancer Research Center). Robots have taken each piece to a different location of the building and the player must find a way to overcome obstacles, i.e. for boxes in the middle of the path, you must find a crowbar or dolly, for wet floors, find a mop, locked doors, you must find a key, etc. Then after all of the pieces have been found, the player must fit them in the right order to win. I may put in some robot fighting too.

I've made a test character, which may become THE character for the game. His name is Wilbur Wolfe, and he's a runner...


We're hoping to get everything done by Spring Break of 2010. We've added a couple more people recently to help us in all our of projects. It's been a challenge, but I know we can handle it.

"Down Under" Character Introduction

I would like to introduce my character cast for my main cartoon, "Down Under". I have lots of ideas that I would love to use them in. If you want a summarized description of the show/pitch, I'd say it is an Australian version of "Tiny Toon Adventures". My I use my characters in many medias: comics, drawings, animations, stories, etc.

I love animals, Australia, and cartoons. My favorite animal of all is the Thylacine, or Tasmanian Tiger. You can learn more about them here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thylacine . I love all the different types of marsupials and other rare and unique animals Australia has to offer.

My characters are based off my favorite wild animals, even though there are a few domestic ones too. To me, they are like my children. Each one has their own personality, likes and dislikes, skills, and so forth. A few of them are based off of people that I have known from the past and some I may currently still know. That is one way I've developed their personalities and attitudes. I have written bios for all of them, except a couple, because they are the newest characters.

Introducing 15 Down Under Characters:
