lots of bus doodles

I was prolific today.

And weird. I just started laying down random lines, then building monsters from them.





The tie was inspired by the one on a guy sitting across from me on the subway.

Then I did a bad drawing of something not unlike Ren Höek, and went to work. Things were slack, so I mostly web browsed and practiced drawing Ren and Stimpy out of the model pack. I think I'm getting better at them.

Then it was time to go home.



I was still in a monster kind of mood, it seemed.



I came first, at the bottom of the page, and the monsters just swirled around me. Yes, one is lifting my hair with its tongue. I want to ink myself, then detail the monsters some more; otherwise, I'd smudge myself into oblivion while working on the monsters.




The guy sitting next to me, who was quite amused that I carry a pencil sharpener in my backpack, opined that the tentacle head was a bit much. I maintained that you can never go wrong with tentacles, and added the text beneath.




This definitely happened because I browsed through that film noir poster book today at Spümcø. I spent more time than I'd prefer to admit trying to get the clouds on the dress to be appropriately loud and tacky, and just gave up and went with moderately tacky in the end. I was going to use the noir poster favorite of a falling, burning car, but I couldn't get one to work, so I drew a crappy falling spaceship instead. That means it's SF now! I could put it up on Epilogue if I finished it!

As memory serves, there was an avatar of Nyarlathotep whose head was a single big tentacle. I think that may have been one of Derleth's additions tho. Also, I like the way the tentacle guy gets an asscrack.
