Topic #12

Hey, it's that time of the week again. What time is it then? It's Topic time! So, all of these topics recently have been a little too complex for my little brain. I am not saying that they are bad topics, however, I just think going simple and letting others come up with the big idea part of their drawing is the best. So, what is the topic? This weeks topic is...........................Zombies! So ya'll have fun, ya hear?

Two Doughnuts

Two Things. First off, I now have Photoshop. I have a new respect for the time put into many of your guys drawings now. Second, an explanation. When I was three my mom asked me, "What would you buy with a million dollars?" After thinking for a minute I replied, "A doughnut." "Wouldn't you want to buy anything else?" "You're right. Another doughnut!"

I would buy a bathtub...

...so I could bathe in all of my money!

Any chance I get at drawing a beloved Disney character, especially one such as Scrooge Mcduck, I take it. Interesting that they would make an old duck, who is the star of Mickey's Christmas Carol, the main character for an epic kids show with race cars, lasers, and air-o-planes (which would be the next three things I would get after the tub). Need some context? And here is the theme for Darkwing Duck...since it seemed many of you had never heard of it.

Why not?

If I won the lottery, I would probably buy a pair of these...=)

Big Lottery

Yes I know what your thinking. How can someone afford this even while winning the lottery? Well listen carefully. YOU DON'T! I just thought of something really really awesome and here it is!

In this picture, that is me, on a roller coaster, on a mountain of snow (a snowboard for when I'm done with the roller coaster), and tubs of ice cream. By the way, I would have gotten everything free. No lines for the roller coaster, no people in the way on the mountain. Just me and my family!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!

You WOULD need to win the lottery in order to afford one of these

This nifty little fan made talking plushie of our dearly beloved and highly controversial "Derpy Hooves" sold for nearly $700. Yes, that's what I said... seven... HUNDRED!

I'm in the wrong business.

Oops!

Hey guys! So sorry I forgot to post a topic yesterday, between classes, basketball, and babysitting, I didn't get a chance to go on the computer.

So I guess the topic will be the first thing you bought after winning the lottery.

Does this count?

Of all the internet memes I have seen, I just can't seem to understand the "me gusta". I look at it and see some guy derping, but others see a creepy guy enjoying something in a sketchy manner. So this meme just makes no sense. Here's to this guy being sketchy while enjoying a pipe.

Also, I gots some catchin' up to do. So here's a couple pics for the last topic.

I was asked two questions: "If you could have any superpower, what would it be?" and "What would your weakness be?" I would definitely be able to teleport! Imagine how much you can save on gas and how not late you can be to everywhere! The only problem is, I have a terrible sense of direction.

Topics

Hey everyone, I added a list of the topics on the right. Unfortunately, it reads 10 as 1 and then 0 so it is putting Topic 10 before Topic 2...

But the topics are up! Now you can read the blog in normal blog format as the posts come, or if you just want to see the posts that have to do with Nonsensical Expressions, for example, you can do that as well.

I hope you like it!

What's in the pipe?

If the Irish are known for anything, aside from the "Kiss me, I'm Irish" slogan, its their alcoholic beverages. I originally wanted a big beer mug next to his face (maybe I'll add that in the future), but my sources told me that's not what you see when you're drunk. You just pass out. So, I went with the safe bet and gave him something else old Irish folk are known for, their pipes! And what glorious pipe it be! The Scottish love their pipes so much, they have a whole bag devoted to them.

My inspiration this time was The Simpsons, not because it's the greatest show ever, but because no one does nonsensical, or at least dazed expressions like they do.

Less is More?

At what point does the expression “less is more” ever makeany logical sense? Perhaps, if this phrase could make any less sense, would itthen be cycling back up from the bottom towards actual meaning? I mean, justlook at this wee dandy leprechaun leaping over a well-drawn rainbow… if I couldput any less effort into this drawing, would that inadvertently make it morebetter? I think I’m gonna hafta side with my favorite superhero, Perry thePlatypus, on this one, guys: “Wha?”

Nonsensical Expressionism

Don't worry... I don't really get it either

Nonsensical Nonsense

Who could make more nonsense?

Nonsensical Yep...

It's a self portrait....

My Record is Still Unbroken

When I heard "nonsensical expression" my mind went directly to Derpy. I mean, just look at her face. If that isn't a nonsensical expression, nothing is. Alright see you next time weeeeeeeeeeeeekly sketchbook. Joey

bet you thought i would pick leprechauns...

but I am refusing to give in to the complacency that suggests choosing the obvious topic afforded by the only holiday in March and deciding to make the topic much more complicated than rainbows and four-leaf clovers...sorry guys.
This week's topic is "nonsensical expressions." Interpret that one how you will...good luck! ;)

Tick-Tock

This is what I have felt like battling the time change this week. How 'bout you? I'm just glad I made it before the new topic. And that this week is my Spring break!

I really wanted to do a Door Man drawing, but hey, what goes around comes around and Joey called his lawyer.

I took from so many sources for this comic cover idea. Too bad I couldn't do 'em justice. But hey, I am absolutely loving everybody's art work, especially this week! Great stuff guys!

Happy Friday!

I was 5. They were dark days.

His name is Captain Fatness.

Those of you with small children or weak stomachs may want to turn of your screen.

I stink at taking photos

It's the maniacal Banana peeler. the terror of FoodVille. And yes I know the topic was super HERO... but i just couldn't resist.

Angry Bird to the Rescue!

Through a long & hard adventure and many levels of trying to defeat the evil pigs, this brave red bird stayed with me from Level 1. He saved my life.

He's my hero. :P

My Hero

Something has been bothering me lately about this blog.

The lack of encouragement from everyone... Sure, some people comment but alot of people are part of this and don't say anything. I dunno, its kinda been bothering me that we aren't encouraging each other like we could be. Come on guys! Comment on people pictures! Find something nice to say and encouraging! I'm not saying I want you to comment on mine. By no means! I don't really care. But I think we should strive to encourage each other more! I mean we have GREAT artists here!!! Okay, i'm done with my little speech. :)

Here is my Hero;

Jesus.

Sorry for my lame picture or quality or whatever. I drew it before class today.

But He honestly is my Hero. He saves me everyday. I love Him so much!!

Thank you God for sending Your Son!

Much Love,

TessieB

Many Happy Returns, or, Hyperlink Flies Again!

The aethernaut returns! ^^ No mashups from me yet, sorry... but I do have a contribution for this week's topic:


This is Hyperlink, a superhero I invented in middle school. After dusting her off, and noticing she's grown up a bit, I don't think she looks half bad. ^^
After accidentally flying into a neon sign, she was crippled by a debilitating fear of heights. But then, her arch-nemesis, Rebound, forced her to relive this horrible memory over and over... until Hyperlink succeeded in "changing her fate" and rejecting the fear associated with the memory.
So, now, as you can see, Hyperlink flies again! :D

Baman and Piderman

Baman help Piderman get out of da cakes. Boo yaaaaaaaaaop.

Here's the final copy.

Purple Mountain Majesty~

Mare-Do-Well = awesomeness. u-u lol....the mountain shes standing on looks like a baked potato......XD!

Stockholm Syndrome

I had to look up the term after "Stockholm Syndrome" showed up as the first title on my song shuffle. This intriguing condition is defined by Wikipedia as "an apparently paradoxical psychological phenomenon in which hostages express empathy and have positive feelings towards their captors, sometimes to the point of defending them." So who better to illustrate this "paradoxicalpsychologicalphenomenon" than my favorite characters? Beauty and the Beast, that's who! But I can't draw them, so here's these things instead. Also, I like using "quotations."

First Again? Yeahaaah!

Alright, so here is my superhero. His name is...........drum roll please........................................................................................Door Man! Back-story time! Alright so when I was just a young lad, I loved coming up with superheros, but so did Ben and Matt. They made lots and lots of superheros, and all of their names were "copyrighted." So they had taken up all the good names, so I had to come up with my own original superheros. The best one, and this was actually the best one I could make without having copyright issues with my brothers, was Door Man, and he uses different door to smack villeins into jail. Back to present day, so now you know my pain. I just made up the villein and damsel in distress this very week. The villein is Evil Dr. Bleah and the girl is Jessica. So there you go, my superhero drawing is awesome. Bye!

Best late than early..... wait thats not the saying.

Sorry it's kinda' dark. And remember practice random acts of randomness.

Superheros

Hey Guys!
So I guess it's my turn to post the new topic! Everybody draw a superhero or some kinda superpower you would want to have. Happy sketching!

Creature Confidants...

When it comes to the topic of favorite characters, no greater characters are rejected more than the Creature Confidants. Let me explain what I mean.

Who is the fuzzy, or at least cuddly little friend of the main character that not only provides the comic relief, but is also the object upon which the main character can cast their thoughts, concerns, and hopes? The answer to that is none other than their best friend; their Creature Confidant. All too often have I seen great characters like Flounder, Abu, Pascal, that raccoon and hummingbird and other pets from Pocahontas, and the mice from Cinderella be completely forgotten by people when the topic of favorite characters are thrown out. And, even more often, have I seen these "best friends" be completely thrown out the window once the title character's prince (or princess) has come.

I have not forgotten about you, Creature Confidants, you caring wildlife you!

MASHUP - The Three in One

All three of the topics I missed in one. Here it goes.

1. Funny Memory: I made my friend mad and they pulled my pants down.

2. Shuffled Song: Discombobulate (Sherlock Holmes Soundtrack)

3. Favorite Character: A pony I created based off the show My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic

... Boom

Balloonio

I was bored and I love balloons. Put them together and what do ya got? BALLOON!!

Peer pressure has won.

Mickey is the all time classiest character ever.

Period.

-Rebecca

First one! Yes!

I do have a couple things to say. 1. These are some of my favorite characters. On the left there is Harry Potter and Twilight Sparkle, Phineas and Ferb in the middle, and Doctor Who on the right. 2. I do have other favorite characters, but if I added those in, this drawing would take a LOT of room on the computer I use. 3. Thank goodness for google images! See ya!

Every seed must die before it grows...

Topic #8 Favorite Character

Movie, Book, TV show, books, Imaginary Friends all included in dis' topic. So have fun everybody... and remember folks, practice random acts of randomness.

SpaceMan (The Killers)

You Say "That isn't a Spaceman"

Where's the Water?

Good question...

Topic #7

So it's my turn to pick a topic.

For my topic I would like to play a small game to choose your topic. Instead of suggesting something that we all interpret, it might be fun to have different topics that are more broad to have more creative range. So...to find your topic, you must open your iTunes, Windows Media Player or any other music library that you choose and hit the shuffle button (or hit the scroll button, close your eyes, and pick at random). Whichever song it chooses that is your topic. For example, I opened my iTunes and the song that came up for me was Invasion by Eisley. So I will attempt to draw an invasion for my topic.

Since I have never picked a topic yet and I'm new at this, please let me know if you would like another topic. No offense taken whatsoever! This not be what you intended or too hard to whatever so please let me know if you would rather do something else! Thanks and I hope you enjoy sketching/creating!

Mr. Sandmoose Give Me A Dream

After having reviewed all of the themes and posts so far, I thought I would do some catching up. I thought I would combine all of the themes that have been suggested so far to create a mega sketch. I hope you like it! Oh and if you need some help deciphering the drawing, let me know. :) Enjoy!

Danyo's Fashion Show

This week, behold a mashup of both the dragon and fond family memories topics as I tell the tale of how my mom and Krystina decorated me with dresses and fancy umbrellas! And, of course, I shall depict it in pony form.

I couldn’t have been more than 5 years old when my lovingmother and sister decided that dressing me in drag was a healthy and fulfillingpastime. Dress by dress, accessory by accessory, all that was missing was the hairand makeup department. What makes matters worse is that my mom got the wholething on film… and then proceeded to share this cherished chronicle with everygirlfriend I’ve had to this day. Thank God I have Ponies to restore mymasculinity to its true glory.

Ben does a preview, so do I!

Yep, another mashup... story to come when I'm finished.

This is an official mud battle.

Okay guys this really happened!! In Ukraine, when I was 6. See, there I am making the mudballs.

You see, these kids were daring each other to slide down the slide onto our elaborate mud castle. One of them finally did it, and it was war!! At first, we weren't sure how to attack. Then Kevin saw me making the mud balls and asked me to make some more. He along with the other missionaries (two boys and a girl) we were playing with started throwing them at the natives. Of course I didn't throw ANY. The guy washing his car nearby was not too thrilled, and started yelling at us in Russian to stop. Surprised by our attack, the Ukrainian boys ran away, and just as we were beginning to glory in our victory, they returned with sticks. Kevin told me to not forget to say how badly he was hurt. (They whacked him with their sticks.) He ran to the guy who was babysitting us ( I wonder where he was this whole time) and cried. All in all, it was a great memory.

Aliens?

Ok, ok, aliens did not actually come to earth, however, they did in a movie I made with Clayton and Matt. This is when we were filming the scene where we (Clayton and I dressed as Aliens) come down to earth. The ugly one with the mustache is Matt. I am the Alien on the right. Clayton is my alien minion to the left of me. And I must say, I very much like having a minion. So, you can also see the orange tree in the back, as well as the trampoline, when it had a net.

Alright, so here it is, my real and authentic story (exaggerated a little bit) from our movie, "Journey for Aliens!" Bye!

The Day Zac Saved My Life

It all started when my mom tilted the couch up for us to play against, because for some reason that made it more fun. Then the couch started to tip while I was playing there. Zac caught the couch, tilted it back up, and went to go make sure my mom knew that he had just saved my life, and to ask for some candy....

Now I know some of you are wishing that Zac hadn't caught the couch, but think about it like this, if he hadn't, then you would never have this blog! Now I know some of you are still wishing that he hadn't done this, but think about this, then you would never have seen the big-butted wildlife drawings that he does so well. So, be glad.

How To Train Your Human

(Use bacon.)

Awesome

I am so pumped for this topic.

Okay guys, I guess I'm up for the new topic. And it is....a funny scene from your life (has to be something that actually happened, but feel free to exaggerate) involving 2 or more people, preferably also siblings!! Have fun!!!

Sneak Peek

Real deal to come. I just wanted to make sure I posted something before the topic was over!
