Illustration Friday 03.17.2006 - "Feet"
I wasn't going to do this one. I really wasn't. Ask Heather. For whatever reason "feet" just didn't inspire me. I guess I'm just not a foot guy. Then I thought, rather than let the week pass with nothing, I would go through some of my old, old, ollllddddd sketches and pull a few. These were mostly drawn around 1995. Here they are (click for full view):
The Fisher-Price dog and the pull toy dog didn't exactly fit on the scanner which is why they look odd on one side.
On my search I came across an old comic that I drew way back when I thought I wanted to be a cartoonist. It was horrible. I saved the art from it and dropped it into a new shell. It's still horrible, but what can you do? Here it is:
And, finally, after all that looking I decided to sketch out a quick little something that was new:
Don't ask what inspired me. I started with one spiked boot and it just went weird from there. Part of it might have been inspired by the red cap characters from the old 'Mage' comic series.
Okay, I said that was the last of it, but my daughter also drew something for "feet". Here it is:
That's me on the treadmill (that's me in the spotlight, losing my spare tire). She's on the trampoline. The brown thing is a weight bench.
And that's it. I hope everyone has a wonderful week.

Hey, I like the Fisher-Price dog. Makes me feel 5 years old again.
Anyway, all your drawings are great, as usual. And I love the new one. Looks like a Terry Pratchett character! :)
BTW - thanks for the MMPORG link. Seems a bit harsh, but the things some people do in-game to feel superior can go too far and ruin it for noobies. CRUCIFY THEM ALL!!!
I love the fischer-price-foot. I just wonder, how many illos will you do, when you are inspired? :-)
Thanks - I have had a great week, and I can see, you too have had it... lovely illos.
But he's still a nutcase.
