For those of you who were unfortunately unable to attend, this graph isn't all that far off. I've always said, "Dragon Con: where people who shouldn't wear that, do". :P

Wanna know something I should be ashamed of? I think iCarly is hilarious. I swear, if those kids weren't... well, kids they'd be great on SNL. :)

Heard this song on the way back from work. It is awesome. :)

It's hiding in the dark
It's teeth are razor sharp
There's no escape for me
It wants my soul,
It wants my heart
No one can hear me scream
Maybe it's just a dream
Or maybe it's inside of me
Stop this monster!

I feel it deep within,
It's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I
Feel like a monster
I hate what I've become
The nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I
Feel like a monster
I feel like a monster

It would take 12 bottles of Guinness Foreign Extra Stout to kill me

Really? That doesn't seem like a lot. I may have had more than that in a single night back in college. Especially on that birthday where we had to explain ourselves to the bouncer at Repent, and all that came out of my mouth was "nuh nuh nuh nuh". :P

Good times.

So I don't know what makes me stranger here. The fact that I can't wait for the live action version of Ben 10: Alien Force makes me a colossal geek, yes, but what gets me strangely excited is that there are several very recognizable shots of Atlanta in the trailer. I guess that makes me a Southerner? I'm not ashamed of being either, really. What I am gonna do is share the Alien Swarm trailer with all y'all. Those who don't know Atlanta or have never seen it, take a peek at my city in the guise of Bellwood (Texas, I think, at least it amuses me to believe so :P). And locals, look what our city can do! :D

It won't embed, so link is all I can do.

I swear, I look at this and all I can think is, "my dad worked there, I vandalized that place, etc. :P

Holy god! Everyone stay away from the water! Never go swimming again! Well, at least not in Japan. Why? What could make a water dog turn tail and run away from the ocean? This thing:


These jellyfish get six feet wide. SIX FEET WIDE, PEOPLE! I've been caught in a jellyfish bloom before. It was far from pleasant. I stopped breathing. I know these giant ones aren't the deadly kind, but man do they smart, and scar you up too! Looks like Australia is expanding its "everything wants you dead" sphere of influence northward.

Mostly to prove I'm still alive, well still drawing actually, well still drawing something worthwhile, as opposed to fan art, I bring you a design that was actually rejected by the dude who asked for it. When he requested 'a huge tattoo for my back depicting a dragon made out of a map of southeast asia', I thought he meant the WHOLE of southeast asia. :P Silly Dingo for using maps. Turns out he only traveled to Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar, and thus will get a tattoo of those countries making a dragon and breathing out fire made of the countries' flags. When I get around to it. And stop drawing porn. And fanart. Don't judge me. :P

The fan art keeps me sane in a world of raging chefs (ok, just the one), pissy pool patrons (take that wherever you please, you're probably right)and just everything being more complicated than it really needs to be.

Whew! Summer hasn't even officially started yet and I'm already the busiest dingo I've ever been. Still working two jobs, and in the think slices between them I scratch out some arts. I know I've got things for people I need to do , and they're getting worked on, just slowly. Especially since I broke my hand a while back. Did I forget to mention that? :P
Speaking of things I haven't mentioned yet, and there are a whole load of those, I caught a co-worker shooting up in the bathroom at on job. That was exciting.
Also a happy birthday month to shushmouse! She takes the entire month of June as birthday celebration time. I support this practice. :)
Oh, look at the time. It's Dingo bedtime as I've a long week of non-stop workings ahead. I'll leave you with my digital sketching for the day. Can you tell that I'm lonely? :P

More fan arts from a slow night at the Thorntree. Kevin needed some ink. I can appreciate a blank human canvas as much as the next dog, but I think every bad boy needs a tat. ;)
Got the idea from the Lizard Man.

Something fun I managed to get out on a wholly unexpected day off this Memorial day. I allotted time for one job scheduling myself off in the other, and behold! the restaurant is closed on holidays! Good to know. I used my free time to draw a bit, drink copious amounts of beer and Sangre de Toro (from Spain!) with Negs, and see "Terminator: Salvation", for which I have been waiting almost 20 years. Worth it!

Y'all that know me for reals will recognize my average get up, what you may not know, though, as none of you have ever seen me truly angry, is that the larger fella is who you'll deal with if you sufficiently piss me off. S'up, crinos dingo? :P

Here's a first go at working out the third tattoo I want. Yep there's a waiting list for my body, as I have no money right now. This is a first attempt at a design for my third tattoo. I've loved Wild C.A.T.s and specifically the Grifter for about ten years now. I think it's finally time to make his image permanent on my skin. :)

I'm thinking of getting it on my left hip and thigh, as I want it pretty large, and my leg makes a decent sized canvas. :P Color, no color? Not sure. Maybe just the red of his mask and gloves.

It's almost a doggy, right? :P

This is the superhero alter ego of a friend of mine from college. Part of her origis story is under the cut. :P

I'm not one for April Fool's jokes anymore. Just can't muster the effort. I do like to laugh, though. Mostly 'cause I'm still under-employed, and if I don't laugh I'll cry.

( I think I've been in this relationship :P )

More Alien Force fan arts. Man, I am such a nerd; I can't get enough of this show! :P
