Inktober 2018: Arnie Geddon Update

I have been gearing up for Inktober as mentioned previously. The plan is to do the letter-a-day/alphabet with this character Arnie Geddon, but I'm still ironing out his look. It's getting there.

I plan to do all images on toned tan paper as seen above, using black brush pens and white pens for highlighting. I've got my ideas and the entire alphabet down on paper. Hopefully, this will all start happening around the end of the first week into Inktober 2018.

Daily Quick Sketch: Arnie McGeddon

With October approaching, been thinking a lot about what I want to do for Inktober 2018. Last year, in the final week I did several images of a cat character. I like the idea of doing something consistent, instead of a daily random drawing.


My idea is to do an alphabet book for adults using this character. So each day I'll be going through the alphabet, having Arnie interact with each letter of the day.

Guster: Re-Covering a cover video

I usually only post stuff related to my character designing or drawing. But this is something I want to archive on the blog for future viewing. Guster has been my favorite band for over a decade now. I've gone to see them perform more than any other band. It's not just the music. It's the band members. It's the fans. It's the humor.


It's the fun things they do, like:
• Firedrills! Where all members of the band switch to the instrument on their left.
• Having their drummer Brian (who is the worst singer) sing an old pop song from the 80's.
• Playing an acoustic set of their songs with violins.
• Doing surprise "pop-up" sets in public, (like when they performed by the rear gates of the Mann Theatre or in front of a dumpster in Pittsburgh for 12 people.)
• Hiding free tickets for a scavenger hunt and giving video clues online.
• Tweeting fans to bring strange items to their concerts to dress the stage up (like potted plants and strange lamps.)
• This video . . .
