Hold on, I'll see if I can dig out something old to put up...

Just something simple.

Looks great. I cant do people. Honest. That was a fluke.

I'm not really here, but you guys rock. ROCK.

Not like a stone, either. Like a... rolling stone, perhaps!

You see? This is why I'm not really here. Tired enough to think typing bad jokes is ok. I know, I know it isn't.
 
 
Saint Keggers
01:33 / 03.05.05
bad jokes rule! Rule like the momgol horde!

Hey Suedey! I didn't see you anywhere just there.

Keggers, how abooouuuutt.......

How about doing something like a Jenny strip in first-person? That way you could do all the abstract and/or cartoony stuff you wanted and you wouldn't have to draw a single human being, just do the scarf and stuff waving into frame sos people know it's her.

Not to cajole you into doing anything you don't want to, but judging by the Mages stuff you do and all the other stuff you post, it could be something special.

Aww shucks *blush*

Go on. You know you want to!

Suedester. Any fine things of your own to add to the Barbelith artist's mash?

I tip my glass to you, sir!
 
 
iamus
01:53 / 03.05.05
Ooooooooooo. That is fiiiiiiiiine.

This is to do with that other strip you showed me, yes?

I love art in Lateshifts.
 
 
Saint Keggers

Nice!

Yes, I'm rather enjoying the late shifts little arty strolls as of late... (I also quite enjoyed reading yours and Bed Heads twilight chat! Ha. I wanted to be up at 5 in the morning as well.)

You can see what the entire deal is with that strip if you pop along here and scroll down a little.

"Can't draw people" : Keggers - YOU CRAZY. These be lookin' like some fine cartoons. Because they actually are!
 
 
iamus
02:07 / 03.05.05
Uh-hu, Keggers. Methinks you are being modest, and silly with it.
Good God! Start scribbling at once! Jenny Everywhere demands Kegdom! She told me herself!

Ah-ha, Suedey. So this is art inspired by, but not necassarily affiliated with the song? Is that right?
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:07 / 03.05.05
Oh yeah. Im all good with the portrait type pics..but an actual scene with whole people...fugedaboudit!
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!

In fact Keggers if you don't do a Jenny strip I am... I am going to come to Canada and bite you. I'm not even kidding. I'll just gnaw on your ankle and I won't let go until you relent.

I'm a vegetarian but don't think I'm not willing. I'll even bring some chipotle sauce.

Your sketches are awesome and I imagine you sitting in some manner of convention simply bashing them out in minutes... and... well, you better be someday. Or I'll have yr ankles.
 
 
iamus
02:12 / 03.05.05
It's true Keggers. This is a man who likes his ankles.

You know how in films with gangsters where people get kneecapped?
That's old hat now. They get ankled. And it was Mr S. here that started the trend as an example to those who commit crimes against the propagation of quality art.

Mel, the pic on the site is essentially me drawing the song, I guess. I even managed to show the band, who said they liked it! Which was nice.

Monsieur Valentine, 'ee iz fun to draw, non? Ah oui, mon petit pois!
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
02:15 / 03.05.05
Let's badger him! After ankles, it's wrists as well...

Wouldn't wanna lose those drawin' didgets now, would ya?
 
 
iamus
02:15 / 03.05.05
That's what I figured. I wondered if you'd shown the band. Kind of hard not to like it though. If they hadn't, they would've been ankled good and proper.

I like the song too.

I ate his ankles with fava beans and a fine chianti.
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:21 / 03.05.05
Chianti! I have a ..ugh...box of wine!
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
02:23 / 03.05.05
The singer e-mailed me and everything, and I felt all important!

02:25 / 03.05.05


MMMMMM

That it is cunningly concealed only makes it all the more alluring...

Saint Keggers
02:30 / 03.05.05
ok, I can guarentee I will start on it. How far I get... I havent a clue.
 
 
iamus
02:31 / 03.05.05
Yay!

I knew the threat of ankling would put the shits right up ye!
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
02:32 / 03.05.05
By my calculations... you draw fast. By the end of the week, please.

I draw very slowly, because I only use the power of my mind.

I'm quite amused by the thought of mobsters demanding new comics with increasingly absurd deadlines for the artists to meet...
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:35 / 03.05.05
Actually it was the stainless steel dishes that did it. Not the meat, the dishes.
 
 
iamus
02:36 / 03.05.05
I think there's milage in that concept.

How about we write a story about it and we call in all the barbelith artists as those being threatened to submit their strips to the mob on threat of ankling, nosing and......dare I say it...... elbowing.........with sharks!!!
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
02:36 / 03.05.05
Although with that thought I shall retire to bed and listen to the birds sing while feverishly trying to sleep.

G'night, all!

(Remember: Ankles, Keglad. Ankles.)
 
 
iamus

Shit. It's coming on five in the morning. I think that's my cue as well.

(Remember: Stainless Steel, Mr. Keg. Stainless Steel.)
