Easter's Coming Up!


Hazel's holiday photos have returned!
This time, she's posing as a Playboy bunny the Easter bunny!

To get an Easter Piggy card, you can either go to Redbubble or Zazzle.

Here's a preview of one of the Zazzle cards:

A horizontally oriented version is also available on Zazzle; Redbubble only has a horizontal card, but has posters and other prints of this image you'll never want or need.

Happy Easter!

Dr. Johnston

Meet M1320, better known as “Dr. Johnston.”


Dr. Johnston is a genderless, genetically engineered, humanoid rodent. Its less intellectual counterparts are usually assigned to jobs as assistants, help, and in the military, but Dr. Johnston has proven itself a noteworthy competitor in the scientific fields.
Dr. Johnston has written several books, including Humanity: the Perspective of a Non-Human and GM, GE, and the Next Generation, and has won several awards and honors in its field.

Now that formalities are out of the way...

M1320 is one of the most revered and absolutely hated GE rodents of its fictional universe. At the moment, it appears to be correcting someone, perhaps Minister-General Halsev, on technicalities. Those two clash quite often.
It’s still a concept. So far, Dr. Johnston doesn’t have pants; it’s genderless, so that’s okay, right?


Here are some sketchies:

Dr. Johnston sketches and concepts; ignore the creepy thing in the top left 0_o
 
Halsev's clothing concepts with the anatomy gradually falling apart
 
Halsev and a GE rodent (Alex, perhaps) discussing politics, which is odd because Halsev hates the GE rodents.  Plus, the style looks inconsistent.  I shall have to work on that...

Are the GE rodents uncanny valley enough, or should I step up the creepiness?

New Digi-Art?


I like where this sketch/WIP is going so far, but I'm not entirely sure what to do from this point; at the moment, I can't draw buildings and my human anatomy is, for lack of a better word, blargh-ish.

If it means anything, the fellow in this sketch appeared previously in this post.  Good old Minister-General Halsev.  He doesn't always play video games.  In fact, he almost never plays video games; that just isn't what politicians do.

Various songs by Muse kept playing in the back of my head while I was scribbling this.  Halsev isn't a particularly oppressive guy and never directly partook in a revolution, so I'm not sure how Muse fits in.


I tried to embed the "F***ing f***ing f***ing little f***er" song, but the original music video had embedding prevented.  Of course, this video is the more likely to induce seizures, so it's all good. (kidding, kidding... though it does have flashing lights...)

The cat.
I think it's name will be Marie.  Or, considering the atmosphere of the sketch, maybe it should be Joey... Josef... but that could be silly and contraversial.  Charlie, Albert, and Erwin are reserved for other cats in Halsev's lifetime.

Well, I should work on my homework.

Happy spring :)
