lameasaurus rex#1


so i decided my nightmare feels generic, i just had to post something, and i also had to mimic alehandro, so i did this swearing it was chill. Getting chased by adagger wielding homie? right it sucks i know, but heres the thing he "technically stabs you, but your skin kinda shreiks and avoids the blade. its like it sucks away. so for the whole nightmare im getting stabbed but i never bleed. the feeling is aweful, and you never stop running. i dont wanna know what it means. oh and teh guy didnt have one tentacle arm, i thought that might heightenhow freaky it would be.

the latest nightmare


I haven't put much thought to this reoccurring dream until it came back about two weeks ago.
In it, I am floating peacefully with a dreamy expression on my face, staring at the clouds above my head as they slowly trip upwards into the warm sky. There is always a loud, clapping sound that explodes in my ears beneath the deep, soothing, emerald ocean water, echoing through the watery caves of my ears, shooting needles into my pin cushion heart (this is where I usually wake up with my clammy hands over my ears and sweat beading up on my forehead). With an arching snap my head sends cascading drops of salty water into a rainbow above my head. I look around me, left and then right. I am at the belly of the open ocean. Everywhere I look is a con caving water/sky line and the smell of the ocean and a hot breeze calling and crawling around the backs of my ears. I hear a loud clap behind me. As I spin I clap my arm against the water around me sending a wall of rippling water 180 degrees around me. Beyond the wake of the splash is a pair of hands pressed together in prayer and moving quickly through the water in the manner of a shark's fin. The sound of a thousand clapping hands slaps the back side of my head. As I jerk my head around feel the pressure of a hand slowly clasping around my bicep. I flinch away and look around beneath me into the dark water. I look up and see praying hands encircling me. I feel a slight tug at my hair from the rear of my head. Hands cover my eyes and I taste the salt water down my throat. I always wake up right before the hands pull me under completely and I am always kicking my sheets off when I awake. A couple of times, after I awaken, there is an image in my head of a woman or of a girl's head floating slightly above the surface of the rough water.

stand up, comics.

Here it is for this week, draweys, one 10x15 (proportionately) vertical comic book page. Anything within those proportions is fair game, b/w/color/digital/ink/coffee etc. on anything you want; squirrels/romance/A-Team/B-Team/Atlantis/t-shirts/real-life/mainfesto/mephisto/cristo/and biblical. Ending Sunday 3/25

welcome to my nightmare
















Based on an actual dream I had a couple nights ago. I fell asleep with a mild headache and, next thing I know, for some reason my dad was squeezing me in a headlock! And-I swear this is true- he actually started crushing my skull! The pain was bad enough (from the headache I assume) that I woke up with my skull still throbbing. Spooooky!
I should point out that my dad is actually not a mythological beast, devouring virgins at the heart of deadly labyrinth, but apparently we have some issues to work through.

Beeez nuts


actual dream where i tried to catch a wasp in a glass but as i got closer it became too big to fit in the glass and then i ran away and it chased me and landed on my neck and then i suddenly woke up and was relieved to find out i was only covered in hundreds regular sized wasps in real life.

your mission, should you choose to accept it....

So this weeks subject is.....NIGHTMARES!!! Hooray. As always that's a loose guideline so feel free to push and stretch as much as you please. Hopefully everyone by now realizes that there are no real "rules" as far as posting, so for godsakes draw something, even if you think it sucks. And not to be long winded but it occurred to me that if anyone at all wants to suggest a topic in the future, go right ahead....the idea here, (if it hasn't been made obvious enough yet) is to foster some participation and involvement in a totally open forum, and above all, to draw fun shit!

an attempt...



pissed off biker babes are my specialty

...far too busy this weekend (yeah right) but this is-once again- my last minute entry...Might get around to sprucing it up on the 'shop later, but this will do for now. And I must say I like the sketch posting trend...the mega-troid battle rocks. So yeah...keep up the good work, team!

metroid vs. megaman

Illustratiiiii, come out to playeayyy

So it's on, Heroines, however you see it, ending Sunday the 11th
yeah, I'm down with the less-muscley theme. I tried to make a starfox for the last one but it, uh, sucked. How bout we widen it a little to "heroines" in general, cool?

Contra!!!


(Is the gun big enough?)


So, this is mine, a long threatened contribution....Better late than never I guess...thanks to Owen for bustin out a rad nes image in like 2 hours last night....motivated me to finally put something together. Hopefully people dig this and see that not everything on here has to be a freakishly rendered muscle bound behemoth (not that there's anything wrong with that). I guess this guy still falls into that category somewhat, but nevermind that...Now let's see some work people!


In other news, I'd like to throw out a suggestion for the next project-
Super-Heroines! I figure it's about time we got some chicks around here...so, yeah...go draw!
