Weekly Hourlies for January! [Jan. 8th, 2009|01:04 am]
Previous Entry Add to Memories Tell a Friend Next Entry
I decided last-minute to do this, because I love the hourly comics, and I've been so delighted with Ryan Pequin's and John Campbell's daily hourlies through January, and I didn't wanna be left outta the fun.
It's all leading up to the official Hourly Comic Day, on Feb 1.
So I'm copping out a bit by doing weekly hourlies for January.
So sue me.
My last-year's hourlies can be read here.






I'm so glad Livejournal isn't gone!
Gone Gone Gone!




My dad totally rocks that leather vest.
Here he is with my aunt, and what appears to be my grandpa's feet
emerging from a wormhole between them...

Shall I put rimming sugar on your tunnel bundt?

I almost watched the notebook on tv tonight as well...
I've never see it. All the other girls squeal about it, someday i'll give it a try.

Anyway, this was lovely.

Tee hee. I pretty much had that same reaction when LJ wasn't loading for me earlier.

And now I suddenly want to dig up this old picture of my mom as a kid (with her brothers, and a couple neighborhood kids) riding this rad scooter. Well, posing and pretending to ride it, anyway.

I totally decided randomly today to try out hourly comics, too! (but I'm new at the game.) These are totally fab.

I absolutely cannot believe how well you drew those. I just can't imagine having the patience to make hourlies look that fucking beautiful.

Also I loved the dirty sounding products. Especially "rimming sugar."

Aw, man, these are super great.

I am always pretty disappointed when Hourly Comic Day falls on a weekend, since I like seeing people's regular old days best. I think maybe I'm going to have to have a random Hourly Comic Weekday this month to make up for it.

I totally thought LJ was gone yesterday too.

AND OMG KYLE XY!!! I would jump into a pit of fire ants to make that come on just one day earlier.

So you had leftover sushi and were able to wait until dinner time to eat it?! I crack into mine at breakfast.

I also totally freaked out when I saw that LJ was down... and thank you for alerting me that Kyle XY is back, I didn't know!

Of course, the hourlies look totally awesome! And a buddy of mine went to high school with Ryan Gosling in Burlington Ontario here in the Northern wilds of Canada...

(A) Hey, I love your hourlies. Found you via Ryan Pq. What's your this book of yours I just saw mentioned? Oh, I have much to learn. I love how light and natural and relaxed all the movements/stances are in your work. You have a deft touch!
(B) I love your bg too and have already pinched it to use as my desktop background. :X How do you go about getting a design made into fabric? I've always wondered.

Reading your comics are the perfect excuse for me to take breaks from writing. I hope you're gonna put some up on Etsy again. Thanks for the laughs.

Inauthentic, but embarrassingly tasty. I think the secret ingredients are butter, garlic, and salt.

Ooops, that was me, not logged in.

I'll be doing an hourly comic on 2/1; the art will not be as refined as yours, I fear.
