Old Porno cartoons

One of the best ways for an artist to keep in the zone between art engagements is to draw porn. It keeps the hand fluid by creating curves and the eye alive by constantly evaluating shadows and light sources.

Plus, its fun!

Doodle from 1993

Way back in 1993, I was in Chicago, art directing the KMFDM animation 'Drug Against War' at C-Pop studios. In one room, the techies slogged (doing the animation tweening and compositing) and, in another, much sweatier room, I worked night and day with the cel animation team or 'inkies', as we called ourselves.
To keep spirits and morale up, the team and I engaged in Art Wars: denigratory and derogatory cartoons aimed at humiliating the other animators. Pretty soon, we had a huge wall covered with these gems and I am proud to present, courtesy of ace draughtsman, Peter Moriarty (who also worked with me on 'Sonofagun' and the ZPC: No Flesh Shall Be Spared game for Zombie Interactive), one of the best. In between our punishing 36-hour shifts, the team shared a love of pool which we indulged in in bars such as McNeill's and Hoilday in the city's Wicker Park area.
Here is one of the crowing cartoons I posted one day after a typical trouncing on the green baize.

Big ED

A quick Illustrator sketch of my good friend Edward Galore of Seattle, Washington. Ed was on the Zombie team back in the day and is still one good-looking SOB.

To bolster myself against a possible thin year ahead work-wise, I designed this work-related icon to inspire me in 2009.
