Draw Something

I was stupid and downloaded Draw Something for my iPhone. Stupid because a) I quit playing games because I become too competitive. I start obsessing. b) most of my opponents really suck. c) drawing on an iPhone. Enuff said.

If you want to play me in this my user name there is the same as my twitter handle. And if you don’t know my twitter handle then you aren’t invited anyway. #sticksnoseup

Don’t get me wrong. I do have two fun opponents. There’s just a lot of average people out there. And then this really idiotic one who is either 12 and can’t spell or is ESL.  I treated him to this:

If history serves us well, he will probably bust through all of his helps, try to use the letters RIP even though I never give the word away in the spelling (like he does a lot when he gets frustrated. He makes it a hang man game…um no) and then give up. Like he almost did with “ruler”. I still give my best effort. Even if my opponent seems to lack the knowledge of human society. Maybe I’m playing against an alien.

I’m not morbid. It’s the game. The game is making me do it. And yes, penguins are inherently sad. The ice is melting, yo. You can’t wear formal wear in the heat. Nobody got time for that.

PS: I drew all of that with my thumb. My THUMB. On an iPhone. It was like doing sand bottle art.

Hope Solo Paper Dolls? Yeah, that happened.

It’s finished, baby! Now with even more swagger. You know, the thing about already being a subculture kid is that you can fully flesh it out however you like. No one will judge you more or less than they already do. And they do judge. You just never bothered to care anyway. If you are artistically inclined you can ignore doing traditional landscapes and skip straight to paper dolls of soccer players.

If you aren’t in the fandom-know then you might not get the lolz about the Starbucks and BlackBerry or the Game Face option or Hater’s Tears. Oddly enough, the ESPN Boddy Issue cover was the funnest to draw. I started off just with the impression of an image and it solidified pretty tight I thought. Minimilistic and tiny. My desire to draw miniature things is leaving me but it was fun while it lasted.

Behind the scenes: I was watching Twin Peaks while making this. Just thought you should know. :/
