The greatest day of my life will be...

The day I tell my boss at the Espresso Bar to go to hell, rip off my uniform, switch the regular and decaf labels, flip the bird at everyone I see, and quit my job in a blaze of glory I've been dreaming of for the past few months. I swear, as soon as I find a new job, I'm going to figuratively burn that mother fucker to the ground. And I'll constantly go back for coffee and act like it never happened. I could go into a long, whiny, explanation as to why I hate my job (waaaah, my manager is mean!), but I won't. Everyone hates their jobs, and so do I, a lot.

Very Rough Rough

So here it is, a very rough rough of the pretty much best day ever. It would consist of an alien invasion of Las Vegas. I mean really where are we, as a nation, going to gamble away our life savings if this place gets blown up by aliens? Jersey? Hell no, not until they clean up that outbreak of guidos.


Just to make my day that much cooler I have given myself a pimped out robot that could save the day but will not. Of course the final image will be of a higher quality and not this jacked up. Hey, I may even whip out the oil paints. Probably not, but if the class wishes hard enough, or my grade is depending on it, maybe.

I was thinking what a good day would be and I thought of snowboarding! I had bought a board a K2 fatbob a couple of years ago but lost it in moving around Chicago. I thought how great it would be to go snowboarding and learn how to do some tricks and just free ride. This is me imagine what I would do if i went snowboarding.

Bad Day, Die Hard

This is my interpretation of the typical worst day ever scenario. To begin the character featured is already an unhappy person to begin but this is supposed to the the climactic action(s) that really put the icing on the cake. He is slipping on a banana peel, his umbrella broke so he is getting rained on, he is also getting splashed by a car driving through a puddle. The text is supposed to give a sort of comic tittle effect if this were to be developed into a short comic this wold be the cover. i plan to do a more refined color version with inks and washes.

Sketchy sketchy

I have chosen to do a worst day/dystopia illustration. I decided to go extreme and the basic story is that I am in Hades awaiting the judgment of cerebus (a giant three headed female creature.) I did a simple sketch as well as started to work the final. Images below. The final will be approx 16x20.

My Best Day, Tree Sitting, Tree Smoking, Book Reading

It's pretty tough for me to find time to just relax. Often I feel like I have to work in order to feel relaxed. Which doesn't really equate to relaxing exactly. I haven't had a free day in awhile where I could just sit, chill, and not worry about anything. I'm looking forward to at least having one of those days in the future. I would consider that to be the best day ever easily. Whenever it decides to get warm again outside, and if I could find a nice, quiet and secluded area. I would love to sit beneath a large tree, smoke some pot, which I haven't done in awhile, and just read and eat all day.

Best Day EVer! THe DaY KinGdom Hearts entEred my WoRld.

In my "Best Day Every" illustration I decided to fuse two worlds. The world of Kingdom Hearts ( a video game that involves companies Squae Enix and Disney) and my world. I haven't figured out everything I wanted to do but I do want some of the characters to be in very animated poses in some kind of world.

I fell in love with Kingdom hearts Freshman year of high school (its story, characters, etc.) and I have always been fasicantied with the characters stories. I felt as though I was apart of their world when I would play the game. Its story is pretty deep and captures me. I would explain it but it would take to long.

I hope for the other skecthes to capture the characters designs (Tetsuya Nomura) style along with my own and make this illustration animated even though they are still 2D pencil drawings.
