Humanoid robots with floaty eyeballs tend to be the kind I like drawing. This one is maybe 25 years old. Drawn by hand and digitally inked in photoshop with a mouse because I couldn’t afford a tablet. Artist Brian Bolland had published a brief tutorial on his style and I emulated it

This year I bought a membership to @trueref.bsky.social because it’s hard to take reference pictures of myself with the full pose while holding the camera. It also feels silly doing the pinup pose, lol. Apologies to all orc warrior women.

Looking through my sketchbook - a robot with a face mask? Hardware for using eyebrows to express feelings.

I found an old rolled up canvas I has started a sketch on and have decided to reuse it for a different painting.

I’ve also found a 3 foot tall cement Buddha head in another alley and now it lives in my backyard. My kids sometimes discourage me from going through alleys now

I did a sketch based on this drawing but I made an orc lady instead of an elf lady because yeah. I’ll be drawing a couple of crushed dudes, I mean knights, at her feet and replacing the axe with a club.

Here’s the video of the Waymo obviously crossing during a red light, while a walking man is on, in busy intersection full of middle schoolers being middle schoolers (goofy and careless)

Lol “sticklers to the law”
This was today, at a busy intersection, right after school let out, with dozens of middle schoolers dashing across the crosswalk.
The day before a waymo would not move out of the way of an ambulance blaring and wailing behind it. Please.

There are so many pickled brain people. And the locals who also claim this place is "unsafe!" (i.e. I don't like seeing unhoused people) love to encourage the narrative

A nice little chiptune to go with your graphics. Clicking on it makes it say something bit-chunky but I can't tell. Definitely would have made some awesome games with this art.
