A joyful zebra, that is also a knight, ON FIRE, with stripes and tail turning to flames, garbed in a golden helmet with plumes that also turn to flames, rearing up and holding a striped lance that is also on fire, setting out on an adventure across sunny mountains, along a road leading to a golden castle. A little fire salamander friend tags along. In a narrow rocky pass with overhanging cliffs, a motley gang of bandits suddenly appears atop a rocky edge ahead! It’s an ambush! The leader, a handsome but menacing brunette woman, brandishes a sword and dagger. Behind her, a motley gang flourishes a random assortment of weapons: swords, daggers, knives, axes, halberds, crossbows, cleavers, and big sticks with
nails. Their appearance and attire is just as random, some wearing helmets of breastplates, some in leather doublets, some in shirtsleeves or tunics and brightly patterned tights, one in a gown and apron. The leader wears a hat with rooster feathers, leather doublet and buskins, red shirt with puffed sleeves, and red and yellow striped tights, as well as several gold chains. Her chief henchman, beside her, is a huge and very hairy fellow with tusk-like lower teeth, in patched blue and yellow tights and sheepskin vest. He wields an enormous axe and a fearsome scowl and looks a trifle orcish. A knight on a white horse, setting out to find a dragon in a mountainous wild wasteland, has just encountered the dragon’s aunt. She is MASSIVE, half pompous matron and half dragon, decked with curls, pearls, and feathers (or are they horsetails?) with a long scaly tail stretching back into the mountains, and a formidable gold lorgnette, through which she examines the knight. She does not approve. The Rose Queen, in a grand rose gown, is surrounded by her court of elegant bee attendants in a spacious pavilion decked with roses. The bee courtiers are all vying for her attention.

We used to call them catamounts in New England when I was a kid!

Don’t know how many people still do that

Same cat, different aliases

They are sneaky like that!

The remaining limited edition prints of “You have this hold over me” from my solo show last summer are now up on my shop. :-)

This kind of thing is going to be SUCH a whacking huge disinfo problem 🙃

People are already easily fooled by out-of-context/cleverly edited clips, videos of one thing being shared as something completely different, and video game clips shared as “real” footage

This stuff? Even worse!

GUESS WHO'S BACK

DOC'S BACK

That's right. It's time for part 3 of the FPS series; this time, a lot of assorted thoughts on what makes for good enemy design. This one was fun as hell to write.

building a better first person shooter part 3: enemy mine
So! First, we talked about a specific subgenre of first person shooter, loosely starting with Unreal and Half-Life and dying off around…

This post brought to you by Corporate Animation Character Design Hell 🙃

If the CEO wants to appear as a cartoon character in an animation, RUN AWAY. Nothing good will come of this experience.

“Make them look ethnic”

or alternately,

“Animation depicts the CEO”

I started writing the next one of these in an informal sequence. Water and earth here, and the next one coming is fire.

Haven't finished writing and won't for a minute, but I'll need some money to secure a collaborator.

So anything I sell in my shop is for that: weekendwarriorcomics.com/shop

Both of them make me glad I’m still on a Mac, which still works for the software I need to use regularly 🙃

(That’s not to say Mac might not also go totally sideways eventually, but for now, it… just works?)

My experience with determining whether Linux is a good option for me usually begins and ends with:

“Can it run all of these specific art and design programs that I need to use?”

“No, but it has Gimp!! Look, Gimp has a paintbrush and paint bucket, what else do you need??”

I'm trying to fill up my queue for the month, so I'm opening up commissions!

Please DM for a spot! I'd ESPECIALLY love to do more illustration commissions for October, and I'll be rolling out some new illustrations I'm finishing for clients soon!

Spooky kingfisher!

That’s a pretty amazing shot, especially considering how those little guys rarely seem to stay still for long!

SERIOUSLY 🙃

Most of my email management time is spent paging through results!

I just wanna select all, DELETE
queengwenevere.bsky.social
Most of mine piles up in one or another of the Gmail sub-tabs. But still. It takes up space, and every now and then I have to run a search for “Senate” or “Congress” or “Supreme Court” or various candidate and org names, and mass delete a ton of those to clear up more space.
