Winifred, no! That is not how Valentine’s Day works at all!

Hey, remember that series of commissions I did about The Split Ends, a band fronted by a very long-haired, adult Angela? Well, it seems that the tale skipped over the hiring of one Bel Brimston. Yes, she's using bass necks as hair sticks. Leave it to Bel to play bass yet also be the center of attent...

I've been working on this 80s pop/salsa dancer Angela on and off for about a week, as my schedule allows. I tried to crank out the image on the left, and was unhappy with the results. I'm not sure when I'm at my most critical, but working on commissions is pretty high up there. I sketched the second...

Hip-hop/ballet intensifies

Here’s another doodle, as promised! And sorry, previous commenters, looks like you’re 0/2 in your predictions.

Sorry for the lack of doodle yesterday. I had an exhausting meeting followed by a harrowing drive through a winter storm. I’ll double up today.

Several years ago, I drew some Underburbs characters in the PPG style. In a semi-reversal of that exercise, here’s Angela in her standard Underburbs style, but dressed as Blossom, aka Best Girl.

Angela gets an earful of salsa and 80s pop!

Further experimentation with the Magic Headphones has turned Winifred into a mix of ballet and 90s hip-hop. She needs an equally ridiculous rapper name. Suggestions in the comments!

More TG commission goodness, and a two-fer at that! The mass deletions don’t know what they’re missing! Also, ignore the word balloon where I wrote “this” when I meant “that.” Sometimes my hand is faster than my brain.

Here’s a less on-model version of Ursula. If I were to draw her from memory, it would look more like this.

She’s so damn fabulous. I went to Disney World on my 30th birthday, where Meg and I cheered on the villain float during one of the many parades.
Ursula was, on some unconscious level, the inspiration for the XL Bel seen in Underburbs 16-18.
Just a good old-fashioned TG sequence in progress.
2018-01-31 14:53:01 +0000 UTC View PostNothing like seeing 42 notifications and they're all deletions. Help me out people! What do you want to see? Should I change out the Daily Doodles for something else? Have I ben valuing quantitiy over quality for the past year? What do I do?

I don’t normally dabble in portraits and/or caricature, but it helps if the subject is basically a human cartoon. Big hair and prominent features, yay!

This is a commission for an artist on DeviantArt. He has a 1950s-era character named Chelsea who likes fast cars and bouffants, but apparently not at the same time. I don't think she really has supernatural powers over her hair and wardrobe, but if she did, I think it'd go a little something like th...

Winifred is noticing a distinct pattern with her scroll lately.

My lollipop-headed character designs for The Underburbs make profiles tricky at times. I’m torn between drawing them like muppets or giving them at least the suggestion of a nose.

I’m becoming kind of a karaoke junkie thanks to new neighbor and accomplished comic cover artist, [name withheld].
Anyway, what song do you think Angela’s singing, and how well?
Sketch of Winifred for the upcoming TPB cover. I’m going for an 80s businesswoman look.

The full-body sketch of Tristan, a character from an episode of the 1999 ABC Family series, Big Wolf on Campus. It's fun to do commissions like this. I have never seen BWoC, so it's an interesting challenge to do my take on something I have no connection to, and then have to present it to s...
