Maybe I'm on to something?

2007-11-14T12:23:00.000-08:00

did this logo for a mini portfolio i'm constructing. the concept is that it folds out from one page to two and finally to a four page spread.

i really want to have photos of the physical thing by the end of this week. that would be cool. anyway, i'm really happy with doing a purely geometric logo, it feels like i'm doing something bad. it feels good.

new work

2007-11-07T23:04:00.000-08:00

here is some work for a fictional illustration magazine. i would love to really go into detail and nerd out, butim in the middle of creating a shrine for captain ahab. for the magazine of course

words will be added as soon as i get around to coming up with a good way to execute it visually.

All in all, I guess I'm doing ok.

2007-10-24T22:03:00.000-07:00

Really can't wait for this semester to be done. I used to be scared of not being able to get a job after I'm done with school. Now, I don't care anymore. I am going to get a job. That is no longer an issue. A job would be a vacation compared to this semester I would think.
Wait, what if I'm wrong? What if it never really gets easier?
Crap.
Guess it doesn't really matter. I just need out of Tarrant county, I need to be somewhere else by Spring. I'm getting tired of waiting for something to happen.
By the way, http:www.halfcookies.com is starting to get rolling. There still is no way to email us on the website, and that is dumb. I should fix that on Sunday when I'm working on it.

getting it started...

after being inspired by the awesome les mcclaine comic strips http://www.evilspacerobot.com/comics/lifewithleslie/index.php i decided i should totally do a blog comic. here goes. by the way, i just started working at the school newspaper. its a pretty awesome gig.

adios!

Vacation is All I Ever Wanted

2007-06-11T16:41:00.000-07:00

If you didn’t really know me and you were watching me from a distance, you would think I have been a serious bum, lately. And while I’m on that thought, let me add that if you don’t know me and are watching me from a distance, please stop. But as I was saying earlier, I really feel like a bum, lately. Well that is because I am on vacation. Well, sort of…more like writing a graphic novel between jobs…

It has not been a very productive two weeks. I wake up around noon, and on the occasion that I may wake up in the actual AM, I end up falling asleep and waking up again around noon. It makes me feel really lame. But on the plus side, recently I have been a little more diligent with my writing. It’s taking a little dedication and a little bit of self discipline, but I am gaining momentum. Ideas actually just pop into my head, like I’m some kind of lightning rod. I just write em down as they come. It feels great! I think maybe all this writing has somehow affected my dreams. My dreams are way more vivid and actually tell stories. Last night me and the twins took on a mobster in a heated game of cards. In the dream, he actually said, “you punks can’t play cards! Hell, I bet you guys couldn’t even play a Microsoft word processor!”

I woke up with an awesome WTF?

This is going to be a cool summer. I’m not 100% sure how I’m going to get through it without going broke, but oh well, I need it. This may be my only chance to complete a graphic novel. And besides, I’m on vacation.

fleas

2007-06-08T11:30:00.000-07:00

Well I finally got back to work on the script for Death Ride. I’m definitely going to have to change the title because, c’mon, it’s a story about cars like Death Proof and even I confuse the name sometimes…I sent in a very rough draft to Jesse, head of Viper comics and he said some of the dialogue is a bit stiff, which I wont disagree with. Of course it’s stiff, I’m not a practiced writer! Writing is going to be stiff and uncomfortable if you are stiff and uncomfortable with writing like I am. I’m trying to remedy that.

I need to improve my writing skills, so here I am, keeping a journal right here on the internet for my own later embarrassment.

The fleas in this apartment have really dealt a blow to my standard of living. I can stand dirty dishes and laundry on my floor; you can learn to live with that. But to constantly have bugs jump on you and bite you, man it sucks. It tears down your morale. Makes your life worse. I think it’s a big reason Max ran away, he was affected the worst, they actually lived on him…I couldn’t imagine. If he is still out there, I hope he’s ok and got rid of the damn bugs.

Anyway, we set up a bowl filled with soap water on the carpet with a lamp lighting it. The bright light is supposed to attract the fleas into the bowl while the soap water creates a surface tension that fleas can’t escape out of. It is amazingly entertaining.

Mike says it’s satisfying to grab a flea if you find one on you, and drop it into the bowl. I find that I have to agree. I’ve begun the ritual of picking them up and dropping them in, watching them sink. They fall in slow motion, they dance, writhe at the bottom of the bowl and become motionless. They lay together in a mass watery grave fifty strong, converted from their previous evil versions, they have now become the only good kind of flea. A dead one. I wonder if they have a death rattle, and if so, how hard would it be to build a tiny little underwater microphone and listen in? Maybe I should check with Radio Shack…

A-KON 2 Electric Boogaloo

2007-06-03T20:44:00.000-07:00

One of my favorite posts ever for this blog is hands down day one and two of last year's A-KON. Ladies and gentlemen, her are some selected shots from this year's A-KON

here is John and I with Pikachu. Kind of reminds me of that scene in a Christmas Story when Alfie comes down the stairs in the awesome rabbit suit. I want a Christmas Story sequel that takes place in Alphie's akward teenage years when the rabbit suit becomes his fursona, kinda like the Venom symbiot suit, but more retarded.

Here is John with Mario. Mario found himself a DS, but he needs to find a Super Mushroom so he can be be of normal height.

Here's the crew with whatever the hell that thing is. After the picture was taken, I felt really bad for the dude, he took off his head and inside was a pale scrawny dude with glasses fogged from sweat and a look that told me he might vomit at any second. I thought about how much care these people put into their costumes. THESE PEOPLE LIVE FOR PHOTO OPS . I really admire it, and I'm kicking myself for having thrown away my Pokemon suit from Halloween.

And finally, here is me with an authentic Texan. I'm not sure what he was doing at A-Kon, but he had a registration badge so he had to belong. His wife let me know how dumb I was for not knowing who this guy is and something about his book about Texas Rangers coming out next week.
I have decided no matter how nerdy the whole thing was, there is a good portion of myslef that belonged at an event like this. It felt good to be surrounded by most of these guys. Next A-Kon, I'm staying the whole weekend-no excuses.

WOW A half year has gone by...

2007-06-01T12:40:00.000-07:00

Yikes, a half year has gone by and not one post...Well, I'm only sort of employed right now, so I guess this would be a great time to get the ball rolling again. Right now I left the working world to work with Viper Comics and in my spare time I have been working on Death Ride, but the name is going to have to change, its too much like Death Proof...
Anyway, here are some neat-o illustrations I have done lately. These were for class illustrations about an article describibng the history of frisbee... hopefuly I will have some cool death ride and half cookies stuff to show yall.

YO YO YO

2007-01-19T22:47:00.000-08:00

I’m ready to be productive again! For posterity, I think maybe I aught to go over the things that happened since I last reported in:
* I went to Portland and got lost in a busy street half drunk with no glasses inside of a pokemon costume.
* Rachel came back to Texas from Portland but had the nerve to move 50 miles away from me or something.
* Went on a major substitute teaching hiatus in favor of drawing people with a funny face.
* Got an internship at Viper Comics! (Comic book hook-ups)
* Six Flags season ended and went back to subbing, thus, the return of Mr.Randy.

Wow, it didn’t really feel like anything happened while I wasn’t blogging…So now that I’m bound to go to school sooner or later, I guess now would be a good time to start this thing back up and maybe practice writing as well as drawing. It’s all part of my whole being productive New Year’s resolution. Anyway, here are some pieces I’ve done lately. I’m trying to improve on my inking.

Adios.

on the road again!

2006-10-21T20:54:00.000-07:00

Oh man is it good to be back among the living again! I haven't posted in a long time, and I reckon at this point, this is just me talking to myself, but maybe this will be theraputic.
I have totally neglected school and work the past week or so. Maybe I've been too dumb to not know when to stop partying. All I know is I had to spend this past weekend getting my health back up to 100% while house sitting for my folks. This has actually been a great weekend for me, as I could really use some solitude right now. And now that the weekend is almost over, I feel good. I feel like I'm ready to take on the world again.
Next week will find me in Portland with Rachel. Man, am I looking foward to that. Since Rachel is the only one who reads this thing, I would like to give a shout out to Ray Ray. <3. Also, here is some stuff I have drawn lately! It isn't bad, but I just need more output... I'm hoping I can keep this blog up again and start posting some of the Half Cookies stuff I've been working on with Pedro.

All right, folks. I guess that's all for tonite. See you guys here in a day or two, that is if I'm not too lazy to do another post. Adios!

2006-06-12T09:46:00.000-07:00

A-KON EXTRAVAGANZA! PART 2!

All right, so day one of A-kon billowed goat. That was day one. Here is the formal report for day 2.
I called and actually got through to the GTT Saturday and figured out what hotel the boys were staying at. After walking into the hotel room, I was confronted with a room full of empty beer cans, a table covered in booze bottles, two televisions (one for Nintendo, one for Mr. Show), and a bunch of really drunk doodz. However, the crowning achievement might possibly have been the remnants of the word “BAMF!” written in silly string on the wall. The goop had solidified into a black greasy stain. Mike turns from the television with lazy eyes and tells me, “Yeah, the hotel dudes are going to kill us when they find that. Good thing I didn’t pay the deposit.” He’s playing Dudes with Tudes and drinking Southern Comfort out of the bottle.
After a few beers, shots, and Mr. Show episodes later, the crew decides we are ready to be seen in public.

I make sure that everyone in the room will be represintin’ by giving out custom tats.

Here are some pictures of us watching the new Tenchi OVAs! They’re not even out yet, but we talked the projector guy into playing the first episode. Tenchi, Ryo-ohki, and Ryoko's cleavage got enthusiastic applause.

An official for A-kon told us they had to resume scheduled viewing, and we stumbled out of the theatre, telling everyone that we were leaving because they weren’t playing Tenchi anymore.

By the way, I always forget how cool James is until I see him about once a year. Here are some awesome pictures of him. I think it should be noted that he looked exactly like how I felt.

COSPLAY! Note that I’m wearing the same shirt as yesterday, LOL.

The gangstas.

So day two was definitely more krunk then day one. I’ve got to ask off from work next year so I can be a part of the whole thing. I’m even thinking maybe I’ll do some Waluigi cosplay so I can go head to head with this dude…Apathetic Luigi, IV’E GOT YOUR NUMBER!

2006-06-10T00:11:00.001-07:00

A-KON EXTRAVEGANZA!

I was lukewarm about A-kon. I didn’t quite understand what it was all about and why the twins always freaked out about it. I promised I was going to ask off for the few days to go with my friends, but like a lot of things lately, that fell through. So after getting off work, Friday, I tried to get a hold of the boys to meet up with them at A-kon. Getting no answer from anyone in their posse, I gave up trying to reach them and decided to be bold and strike off for A-kon by myself.

Going to A-kon by your self blows goat. So does not having a cell phone to call your friends to let them know that you’ve arrived. And if they don’t have a cell phone either, like my friends, well that’s double suck.

So anyway, despite the fact that I couldn’t get a hold of my friends, I struck off undeterred in my attempt to make it to A-kon, find my friends, do some drinking, and watch some anime. Little did I know that finding someone at this event without knowing so much as a hotel room number is like trying to find a needle in a geek stack. However, during my journey through the busy hotel room hallways, I made a few friends.

These dudes were actually pretty cool. Too bad the picture didn’t turn out well…

I think these dudes are supposed to be that guy from some video game. Lookin’ tough, bros! But I dunno, those sords are a little phall…they’re kinda like…well they’re sorta gay, guys…

Here are two chun lees, complete with whatever that other girl is.

I also happened to accidentally stand in line for not only the yaoi festival, but also Rocky Horror picture show. While this was happening, I’m almost certain that John and Mike were in their hotel room drinking. Tripple whammy.

I have a feeling that going to A-kon for the first time in my twenties had an adverse outcome on my life. Had I have gone in my early teens I would have most definitely become someone else. Walking down the halls past cosplayers, teenage girls, and goth whatevers, I felt like there would have been a place here for a 15 year old me. But knowing the 15 year old me, I would have gotten lost, had my wallet stolen, gotten my heart broken by some slutty high school catgirl, only to get a ride home from my mom. But I definitely see what all there is to freak out about, and maybe only hell or high water could stop me next year from going to A-kon.

So not a totally awesome experience, but cheer up little emo Raney, there’s still the Beck show, and there is bound to be some cool happenings there!

Moby Dick/ Beardwatch Part2

2006-01-15T23:04:00.000-08:00

I have been on a Moby Dick kick for the last 2 months or so. I started reading the book again and have now probably begun one of the geekiest things I can think to do, which is to start collecting Moby Dick related merchandise. A kiddie cup shaped like a whale? I drink Dr.K out of it. A made for TV movie starring Captain Picard- er- Patrick Stewart as Captain Ahab? I Amazoned it. An anime about Moby Dick set in the year 4699? Yeah, I own it.

Actually, this is a pretty good anime and I totally recommend it. There is nothing like seeing guys in rocket ships hunting robotic space whales. Awesomely ridiculous.

Whoa! Max is totally starting to play my Nintendo DS now! Heinous!
Wow, everyone on the internet is totally going to think this is a photoshop! Max has been playing a lot lately and he’s almost as good as me at MarioKart…almost. Max, get your own DS, then we will see who the real champion is…

*BEARDWATCH 06-DAY 3*
Yeah, its gettin’ there.

Moby Dick/ Beardwatch

2006-01-14T00:00:00.000-08:00

Hey kids, I know I haven’t entered much as of late, but now I actually have something to blog about! I have officially become hardcore about working on Tough Luck Comics again. Look! Look! I made a schedule for myself and everything!

I finally bought the domain name http://www.toughluckcomics.com and I can’t wait to upload the site! I know the name toughluckcomics is a real pain to type in, but I couldn’t get a hold of TLC.com. Apparently that domain is a hot commodity. Regardless! The site should be up in a matter of days in all its glory, complete with a 6 page preview of issue 1 and some “B-side” stories from “My Bounty Hunter Girlfriend”. Right now the site has advertisements from http://www.godaddy.com

There’s also two other comics I’m working on. “Moby Dick” is a little side-project-turned-web-comic that I’m working on. Nothing fancy, just a graphic novel interpretation of the totally rad book by Herman Melville. Here is an ink test for the general style and mood I’m going for:Expect Moby Dick to be finished sometime in the year 2038.

Also, I’m working on a little comic book about Max. I really want to print this off in zine form like MBHG, but only time and $$$ will tell if I do or not. And since I only have very vague sketches about how this book should look, most of them being very drunken drawings, here is a picture of the awesomeness that is Max:

*BEARDWATCH 06-DAY ONE*
I shaved yesterday after 5 days of having an almost awesome beard. I had to shave after it started to feel like my face was growing a pair of wool socks…sadly, it was either me or the beard. But with every death is a rebirth! It’s kind of like the circle of life or something. So since I’m kind of mourning the loss of my puberty beard, I should celebrate the very slow, awkward birth of my next puberty beard!
Photo documentation-Day One!!!!

Well that’s all for now! Adios, kiddos!

2005-11-17T00:09:00.000-08:00

Hey. Welcome to my official blog for Tough Luck Comics, formerly known as Jet Pack Bird Comics. Since this comic is going to be the only thing that I’m going to be doing for a while, I thought it best to document the process of getting my comic book on the shelf. Hopefully, I will have a website up and running within a few weeks. Today, I formatted all the pages to fit onto 8.5x11 pages so they can be folded into zine form. This ain’t the format I wanted, but there’s a few things between me and the coveted 6 5/8 x 10 1/4" size:
1- comixpress has been down since, um, forever. Bummer.
2- da monies
3- big scale printing companies don’t like to do runs of 50. oh, and with print guys, if you have files prepared as anything besides a mac, be prepared for a lecture on why you’re dumb.

Anyway, while I was doing the sizing stuff, I happened to start working on a logo for Tough Luck. While it’s still a little weak in black and white, I messed around with coloring it.

This ain’t a finished portfolio piece by any means. it still seems a little shopped', and all my textures are small, googled images, but hey, I’m pleased with the overall composition and coloring. Oh, except for the spacing in the word “comics.” The c and o stick out too far.
But yeah, I reckon that’s just about it. I’m hittin’ the art, and so is the g to the f. here is a portrait she did of me. <3

SECRETS!!!

2005-11-07T21:38:00.000-08:00

Okay, so John was coming back from work, and he had called Mike and I to see if we wanted anything from the Taco Bell. We were like, “Hell yes!” even though I wasn’t all that hungry. John came back with two burritos and two crunchy tacos, all with my name on ‘em. Like I said earlier, I wasn’t all that hungry, so I kicked it with the two tacos and put the burritos in the refrigerator, thinking I would eat them later. It would be great!
Stay with me folks, this story DOES have a purpose, I swear!
Anyway, Ray Ray comes over and sees all the Taco Bell wrappers all over the floor, because, you know, that’s where we put them. She is all like, “OMG, I want sum Taco Bell PLOZ!!1!” and I was all like, “Cool, I have a coupon for 49 cent tacos, and I have a buck in my drawer, lets go!”
So what happened to those two burritos in the fridge you ask? Why didn’t I just warm the burritos and share one with her? I didn’t tell her about them. I was not about to let anyone in on my horde of burritos. It was so genius! I was going to have 4 tacos and 2 burritos all in one day, and all for about a dollar! OMG things are going great!
So we get to the Taco Bell, and just as my plan dictated, I had two tacos and a cup of water for only a measly $1.06! (Rachel lent me the six cents)
We came back home and saw JR at the computer eating something. I couldn’t make out what it was at first, but then I saw the Taco Bell wrapper. My heart sunk.
Rachel chimed, “Oh hey, you went to Taco Bell? We just came from Taco Bell!”
“Uh, no. I like, found them in the fridge, so I ate them. Hope no one minds.”
I WAS INFURIATED! I WAS SO ANGRY! HOW DARE SOMEONE EAT MY FREE BURRITOS… WAIT A SECOND, I’M A CHEAP BASTARD!
God, I’m such a cheap bastard. I just wanted to share that with everyone. I owe everyone a bean burrito or something.
Anyway, here is a sketch I did today, and I will write up a report on Mike’s wedding soon. I’m kind of waiting to get some pictures back before posting anything. All I can tell you is driving back from Austin to Ft Worth from 11pm to 2:30am is teh sux!!1!

Howdy Pardners!

Hey, if you haven’t heard already, by this time tomorrow I should be finding myself being fitted for my tux in Austin. I’m still not sure what to expect from this wedding. I mean, I’m being fitted for a tux and everything, which is indicative of a normal wedding, but then this was the invitation I got in the mail:

I guess I’m expecting the ceremony to have a Catholic Priest who breaths fire.

But hey! As long as I’m posting stuff from my bulletin board, have a go at these!

Hey, I’ll be back Sunday to give you all the big scoop on the wedding. Until then, check out this uber cool art. See you kids later!

So yesterday, my homeboy Venice came to me with an interesting ad from the paper. For all of you not in the know, Venice is some dude who comes from vaguely somewhere in Eastern Europe. The ladies love him because he has an accent and one time I did a drawing of a blunt for him. Later I found out he used the drawing as reference for a travel poster for Amsterdam, which is absolutely hilarious. Oh, and he likes the comic books, so in turn I like him. OH WAIT! I was supposed to be talking about this ad he showed me! Anyway, yeah, he showed me this ad, and I looked at it for a second, and I knew something looked odd about this guy but…

OH SNAP, THAT’S ME!!!!
This is so awesome! Like, this must be some kind of time traveling long lost twin or something…hell, I don’t know. What if we’re related? He is like a dentist or something, maybe since I’m his twin that makes me entitled to money or free dental visits or maybe even a hug, I don’t know.
Anyway, the ad shows me, I mean Dr. Maedgen in a pretty nice coat/tie thing, and I got to admit, I look P-I-M-P in that stuff. Maybe I should go out and buy some decent clothes…Or maybe I should go out and find my long lost twin LOL!!!!

Birfdays use to excite the holy crap out of me. Now that I’m twenty one, I’m just not seeing the benefits of getting any older. I can already see rated R movies, vote, buy cigars, and now booze I guess. But I don’t really reckon this blog is about my birfday, as it is not for another couple of weeks anyway (don’t get me anything), but rather what a damn cool apartment complex I live in.
You see, I walked to my apartment today and saw an envelope taped to the door. My stomach always drops because this is usually something bad like a noise complaint or a bounced check or something, but not today. It was a birthday card of all things, addressed to me.
Wow, I think this is at least a little strange because like I mentioned, my birfday ain’t for a few more weeks. But a birfday card out of nowhere, now that’s damn cool. Now, I don’t feel too special, because my girlfriend down the way got the exact same card from the complex a few weeks ago, but still, that’s damn cool.

Sadly, I didn’t see Michelle’s signature on the card. I think someone at the main office said she doesn’t work at this complex anymore. For all of you who are not in the know, Michelle is the woman who showed JR and I this apartment, helped us fill out our forms, and took this damn cool photograph of me.

I’m gonna miss that landlady.
p.s, we have a new lady working at the apartment. Her name is Heather and apparently she has the “hearts” for me. Me? Oh Heather, I don’t even know you! How saucy!
Adios for now, kiddos! -Cowboy Raney

You know, I always hated blogs and such. Anyone who knows me probably knows I’ve had my share of problems with blogs. If you ask me, they cause a lot of problems and mixed messages and all other kinds of nonsense…so why write one, you know? Well, I started to thinking that if I want to be a comic book writer as well as a comic book artist, maybe I outta start writing. I mean, you can’t be a skilled artist and not do sketches everyday, so what makes me think I can hold my own as a writer and not do some kind of writing on a regular bases. So, here you go, kids.
The apartment has been really peaceful lately. I think this is because school is getting a little more serious, the summer a little more of a distant memory. I remember coming home to dirty dishes, crap all over the floor, laundry strewn about…oh wait, that still goes on now. I don’t know, maybe it’s because winter has a way of slowing everyone down.
Anyway, I came home today, and everyone was there. Mike was working on the computer, John doing some math homework, Max playing with something in the corner, and JR at the drafting desk doing some kind of art. It reminded me of being a kid in middle school, coming home to a full house, sisters and parents and animals all over the place. I feel like the GTT house is no longer a couple of friends sharing rent in an apartment, but a home and a family. I like it.
