Well, here we are. My top 9 posts for 2020. I guess people really like that 6 fanarts thing 😅pretty sure all of these were done in procreate too (well, the metroid thing was animated with after effects). there's a few days left of the year, do you reckon I'll squeeze another drawing in? Or will my time be lost to Destiny 2 and Dishonored 😏 #topnine #top9of2020 #bestnine #bestnine2020 #cartoon #sixfanarts #gameofthrones #robocop #metroid #samusaran #nintendo #mickey #witcher #ipadart #procreate #procreateart

Me and @keiframes got a new catizen in our house recently! She's a stinky little kitten, and sometimes she's a right scruffbag (and she's sat next to me and done a horrible fart 🤢) She's very nice though, and very chopsy, and has a weird line across one pupil that almost looks like a lightning bolt 😬 #cat

Whats going on with Instagram posts?
Just looked at my blog for the first time in months. I have IFTTT set up to automatically post Instagram images here, but only the last handful are showing up.... the rest are broken links. I wonder why that is, and if there's a way to fix it,.
I also wonder if anyone else cares...

Shwmae! I have done fuck all drawing the last few months, apart from a bit of work here and there - I've been too busy arranging another colossal house move 😅 we're back in Wales now and i did this doodle today while the wife was sorting out some kind of insurance on the phone. I'm out of shape! #cartoon #dinosaur #procreate #ipad

7th day of August and I'm only on my 5th #cyborgust! I guess you might not think of this guy as a cyborg, but he definitely is! #darthvader #starwars #anakin #skywalker #lightsaber #lightsabre #georgelucas #lasersword #sith #jedi #cartoon #procreate #procreateart #ipad #ipadartist #digitalart #scifi #fantasy #cyborg

Day 3 of #cyborgust (yes I'm already behind on my own thing I came up with), and it's the most lazily named superhero in existence: Cyborg! (From teen titans, in case there are any other cyborgs embarrassingly named "Cyborg") #cyborg #cartoon #character #dc #comics #teentitans #teentitansgo #superhero #waffles #procreate #procreateart #ipad #digitalart #artoninstagram

Wasn't much a fan of the original Doom - by the time I was old enough to play it there were better, less ugly games to play, like Quake - but I got the new* Doom for like a fiver and it's incredibly fun. The monsters range designs range from uninspiring to silly, but the Revenant? I love this guy. A gory skeleton in a jetpack? With TWO shoulder mounted rocket launchers?? And you can smash its skull to pieces with your hands??? Absolutely brilliant *New in 2016 #doom #revenant #ps4 #monster #skeleton #character #gaming #cartoon #sketch #procreate #ipad #rockets #demon #hell

Phlogger
Whoops, just downloaded a blogger app on my phone again. This time, I refrained from naming the post "test" or some variation thereof. Ha
Up In The Air
There may be Big Changes looming on the horizon; still far distant, but visible enough to cause concern (thanks in no small part to the events of the current pandemic). I can't say more than that with any certainty, only that it's enough to plant some Future Worries at the back of my mind, Behind the writhing mass of Current Worries.
Also we watched Space Force on Netflix recently, which is funny until you remember that it is based on a real thing that the President of the US did, and then it's a bit depressing.

Jesus Wept
Twitter went off last night because someone said Cameron Stewart was a big creep who was "predatory" towards young women working in comics and dated underage girls (yikes). A lot of women spoke up to say yes, they had had similar experiences with him. Fair enough.
But then someone started on Warren Ellis, and though no one is accusing him of targetting underage girls, there's still a lot of suggestion that he was engaging in similar 'predatory' behaviour towards young ladies involved in the industry. It all seems a bit unsubstantiated so far, but it's not looking good; there's a horrible trend of older men in creative industries getting up to extra shady bullshit.

Best Laid Plans
Every year I have a day-to-page diary, and lately I’ve been using it to track what home learning I do with the kids, and sometimes to plan what we are going to focus on the next day.
Sometimes, my plans go awry.

Back to It
The weekend. An end to trying to force learning into the children's heads. A (socially distanced) walk in the park. Finally, after months of lockdown, a trip to the recycling centre to dispose of a mattress that's been sitting around the house for weeks on end (and I only had to queue for around 40 minutes to get in....). The now weekly big shopping trip (masks included). Beer. Some time for Destiny. Scrubbing the kitchen. Even chipping away at some work.
It felt like an appropriately long weekend, and yet, Monday is here again all too soon. Must remember to make some time for drawing shit this week, before I forget how to do it,

You know what sucks harder than maths?
Trying to teach your kids maths.
If you aren't a great teacher AND really good at maths, you are basically fucked.
I mean I'm ok with primary school mathematics, but I'm a fucking horrible teacher. Teachers deserve more respect.

Broken Biscuits
I rarely post here, but I do have IFTTT set up to post all my Instagram photos here as individual posts with images. Which I thought was cool, but looking back through the blog, all the images are now broken - so all of those posts are now just a bit of text with a stream of meaningless hashtags (and in a massive font no less). So now I have to trawl backwards through my posts, deleting all these pointless broken things. My pictures are all still alive and well on Instagram, at least.

Lumpy Freak
About two months ago, I pulled a muscle in my back, and a lump popped up out of nowhere. It didn't hurt, it didn't do anything, and I left it. Two weeks later it was still there, so I called the doctor. Still in lockdown, so I described the lump over the phone. Two weeks later he called back, to ask if it was still there. It was, so I had to make an appointment to go in. I still have to have an ultrasound to confirm it,but his diagnosis... it's a lipoma.
That is to say, a random lump of fat that has grown under my skin, and is harmless (if unsightly).
Thanks, body.

One of those random doodles that demands to be taken into full colour and, possibly, made into a t-shirt. What do you think? (NB. I don't jog. I don't exercise. The only difference between me and my chair is the number of carbon atoms 😂) #godzilla #jogzilla #kaiju #monster #lizard #running #jogging #cartoon #procreate #procreateart #ipadartist #ipadpro #ipad #exercise #workout
