total goobs!

Here are some funny guys I drew. They were scanned and then colored in Photoshop.
they\'re total goobs!

Using photoshop and illustrator has become almost second nature now. It’s kind of weird that I don’t really have to think about what I’m doing while I’m using the programs. Freshmen year of college, I didn’t even know how to use them! Now when I need to use the paint bucket I just hit the G key, when I need to transform something my fingers unconsciously move to the apple and T keys. Eyedropper? Hit the I key, Marquee tool? M key. Type Tool? T. Paintbrush, P. Move tool, V. I’m sure we all have had the same experiences with our hobbies and work.

In other news, I don’t have a job. I think I might apply at an art supply store or something. I really want to work at a design firm, but most places are only offering internships. I would really like to have health insurance, that seems pretty important.

THEENDBARF.

    Bill, looking at these guys, I realize how much of a nerd I am. In a big way. Orb with arm sticking out? I think it’s Lack from John Lethams, “As she climbed across the table”. Guy with monster hands? Beast from x-men #1. I’m gonna go watch some sports or something. I gotta fix this.

    FOR REALS. I’ve learned so many shortcuts in the last couple months I don’t know what to DO with them all.

    Well, actually, I do. But you know what I mean.

    Dude, Emma, so I haven’t actually met you, but as I read shambot from time to time I know what your drawings look like and I saw the picture you did for Bust magazine! I was reading it next to Tim and said “hey, doesn’t this look like Emma’s stuff?” and he looked at it and he was like “yeah, that really does!” and then I turned the page to the side and saw it was you and we both screamed and high fived. It was kind of weird, but mostly awesome. Congrats! Bust is such a great magazine and your drawing was really cool!

    Also, Bill, I like your drawings too (especially the robot)! And I hope you get health insurance soon!
