Grin of the Week

Young Thor, from the beginning of "Thor." He's a seriously cute kid. :)



(It's not so obvious out of context, but he is smiling.)

Have a great week!

So...yeah, it wasn't very grown up of me to be trying on the Spider-man mask in the toys aisle at Wal-Mart...

*thwip*

The Dark Knight

I don't normally post my art on JGO, but this picture was exceptional, see, I really, really out did myself. So I figured I would share this one.

(It's based on a pic from a t-shirt: I'm not that good enough yet to come up with something this good on my own)


Jay

Self Portrait

(Me)

Many great artists have a self portrait of some kind or another, and, well, I'm not great, but I figured I should have a self portrait...of some kind.

I really don't know how I came up with this idea, but it seemed like the best way to portray me: I drew three figures: an Elvish warrior (The LoTR fan, who does have the heart of a struggling young warrior), a superhero (The Marvel fan, who believes in justice and always doing what's right, no matter the cost) and a nerd (The LoTR fan and the Marvel fan, and the all around OK kid, who is an introvert artist).

It's a simple pic; I could have made it a lot cooler, if I'd wanted to. But I didn't want too, I wanted it plain and simple, like me.

(For the record, the one on the far right is how I actually dress)

(The pic looks better in person)

Grin of the Week

I'll do a real grin next week, I promise.

Jay

Yeah...

So I was less than thrilled about finding a cockroach in the dishwasher....

Grin of the Week

A shot from "The Avenger" trailer.

I think he's laughing at Captain America and Iron Man...

Quote of the Day

"Marry, sir, they have committed false report; moreover, they have spoken untruths; secondarily,
they are slanders; sixth and lastly, they have belied a lady; thirdly, they have verified unjust things; and, to conclude, they are lying knaves. " (Dogberry, Much Ado About Nothing.)

Best. Line. Ever.

Well, one of them.

Jay

...

"I'm working on a picture...it's kinda a self-portrait."

"Really? Of who?"

Quote of the Day

"What a pretty thing man is when he goes in his doublet and hoes and leaves off his wit!"

~Don Pedro, Much Ado About Nothing.


I just thought this was kinda awesome. XD


Jay

Grin of the Week

Nick Fury, director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Yes, I think he is awesome.


Jay

....

Eating cereal with glasses on is much easier the second time....



Jay

White and Nerdy

It' official. ...Like, more official than before. So, we all knew I was a nerd, but now, now I actually have glasses. It's official.

Yes, I wear superhero T-Shirts, I love Spider-Man, all of my favorite movies (Save LoTR) are by Marvel, I really don't do well in social environments, I actually enjoy reading Shakespeare, all three of my friends are nerds/geeks (So, I do have more than three....almost.), and I've seen almost every episode of 'Star Trek: The Next Generation,'. The glasses are just the icing on the cake.


You don't have to worry about me, I'm not going blind or anything; I'm just a wee but farsighted, and yes, an official nerd.



Jay

Quote of the Day

"You don't find the Fantastic Four in a sewer. Or the Avengers. NEVER have I seen the Avengers in a sewer."

~Spider-Man (He was crawling through a sewer at the time...)



Jay

Epic

So, uh, for the record, this is the most epic thing I've seen all day.

Nick Fury, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. blasting away at something. It just makes me happy. XD



(It's one of the first pictures from The Avengers)

Jay

When X-Men meets Thor

So, unless you've seen both "X-Men: First Class" and "Thor," you won't get pic.

I've seen them, and I love it. XD

It's always sad waking up to find that one's stuffed animal has been wedged between the bed and wall...

(He was OK, though. :} )

Jay

The best part about being a crime fighter

I thought this was pretty great. :)

Grin of the Week

I have this piece of paper that I use whenever I'm drawing. I put it behind whatever piece of paper I'm drawing on, so if my markers go off the page, they get on it and not on something important. I use it to see what color a marker is, or how two colors work together, or to scribble on if my pen isn't working. I use it for all kinds of things. It's covered with lots of little faces, and this is one of my favorites. 8)




Have a great week,

Jay
