WIP Wednesday!

In this episode, a soldier has to attend a "travel brief" prior to going on leave.

 The "travel brief" is a real thing. When a soldier is about to go...

Who Needs a Bear Hug? Doodles

Something like this will probably be the last words I say. That or something like, "Does Mr. Wolf and his pack want to plaaaayyy? Who wants belly skritchies?" At least I will die mostly happy.

Ohh, Charlie, What Have You Done? Doodles

I suspect that Charlie Brown will regret a lot of his life choices over the years.

I actually really like Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang; in many ways they got me interested in cartooning as a youngster. But I also love to tweak their w...

WIP Friday! Don't Judge!

Sometimes I feel like WIPping it on Friday instead of Wednesday!

 Food is so central to the human experience... I recall that during my Iraq deploym...

BOHICA News

Hello, and welcome to another edition of the BOHICA...

Lemons Doodles!

Lemony and sour, they're the doodles of the hour.

A very sour situation! Years from now, when the nerdy kid is a CEO, will he hire the big k...

Working on a helicopter interior shot!

Watch Out! Doodles!

In a scary world, you got to watch out for yourself.

 Don't let people harass you. Stand up for yourself!

KFOR Art Jam

Hey, I'm going to try to put together an artists group here at Camp Bondsteel in our MWR (Morale, Welfare, and Recreation) facility-- there's the possibility of putting together a group project I'm thinking of... so stay tuned! If this actually ki...

Stay Safe in the New Year Doodles!

Use a dolly if you must!

 Stay safe on the road with all those drunks, too!

WIP Wednesday!

Juni talks on the phone to Joe; I used found images as the basis because I started this one earlier, before I gained access to the scanner at work. So it has a slightly artificial feel to it compared to my normal style but for awhile I thought thi...

Holiday Bonus!

Holidays at Camp Bondsteel, Kosovo! Or, in this case, the city of Prishtina. For being a country that is 90% Muslim, they go all-out for... Christmas. Obviously this is the secular version of Christmas, with Santa, Trees, and lots and lots of ligh...

Nothing Like Briefings Doodles!

See how I declined the temptation to draw briefs, or a person wearing briefs? I am so proud of myself.

 Not everyone is thrilled. I suppose it is to ...

BOHICA Blues Today: "Don't Do It!"

We look forward to Mail Days. Our Battalion runs mail call on Mondays. Wednesdays, and Fridays. I don't know if that is their choice, something that came down from higher, or if it is the way the post office here is running things. But three days ...

WIP Wednesday!

Once again, I loaded pictures (pencil sketches) with the crappy scanner at work.

It wasn't until two days ago (after already loading the last batch of comic roughs) it occurred to me to look up the make & model of the scanner on the inte...

YeeHaw! Goin' to TEXAS Doodles!

That's right, in a few months, we'll be going back to TEXAS!

 Hopefully not to this.

BOHICA Blues Today: "A Friend Indeed"

Wow, that happened fast, didn't it? The collapse of the 50+ year Assad regime in Syria upended decades of accepted political dogma. I even remember reading news reports that stated things like, "It is time to admit that Assad has won the Syrian ci...

WIP Wednesday

Been working on some stuff, trying to keep busy. The last couple of comics I made were entirely digital, which is kind of unusual for me. I prefer working with paper sketches first and then moving on to scanned images, which I then proceed to deta...

Goodbye, my Friend

Didn't have anything up today. My sweet old dog passed on Wednesday. He was loved and spoiled and carried on even as he got weaker. The walks got shorter, his gait stiffer, and he was so tired. He wanted to be let go to so he could run again with ...

CIP/WIP Wednesday: Some Jedi Characters

Character: Arik Whitesun

Model: Josh Holloway

So I have mentioned in the past that I am part of an online collaborative story that is essentially a giant Star Wars shared-universe fanfic. We started it 20 years ago and it has been goin...

What's Going On Over There Doodles

Well? What's up? Why are folks acting all suspicious-like?

 Don't look at me, it's just party time!

WIP Wednesday!

This WIP is still WIPing! Wipping? Whippiting? Who knows.

I am working on something that will not only be a part of an upcoming comic, but will also become a promotional image for the KFOR part of the BOHICA Blues series. It is therefore mu...

Devolution Doodles

We have the "Devolution Group" at my day job. It's the group that is selected to keep showing up and maintaining minimum basic functions in the event of a long-term emergency. They are expected to "devolve" as we trim back higher functions to conc...

BOHICA Blues KFOR: "Such A View!"

Kosovo is foggy. Foggy and smoggy.

When I first got here, and almost every morning since then, the air has been thick with fog. Like thick, soupy fog that you almost have to chisel your way through.

Kosovo is shaped like a giant bowl...

WIP Wednesday!

I am putting together some stuff for extended KFOR use-- above: I am working on a background piece that will be useful over and over again, the "seahut". Our buildings are called Seahuts, and there are endless rows of them here at Camp Bondsteel i...

Safety Doodles!

We haven't had these in a long time! Put on your reflective PT belts and hang on tight!

 Always a good safety tip: don't step on Snek.

WIP Wednesday!

Even though it is just a panel with a boring old field desk, I was happy with the progression of images. Above: the basic, really sketchy pencils.

Disease, Debilitation, and Doodles

Don't be spreadin' your disease here!

 What did I just tell you? And lay off the sauce, dude.
