Day 11: SLIMY SWAMPS, FOGGY BOGS In order to connect to yesterday’s drawing, I continued the theme of a DC Comics and Harvey Comics mashup, turning Richie Rich into John Constantine and Casper the friendly Ghost into Deadman Boston Brand. The main character for the swampy bog is, of course […]
Day 10 is DEMONDAY Demon Day, or De-MONDAY? Either way, this is probably how Harvey Comics would have done Jack Kirby’s Etrigan The Demon showing up to work with a case of the hellish Mondays.
Days 8 and 9 of Drawlloween 2016 are: “Eight Legs, One Thousand Eggs” and “He’s a Dummy, Doll.” Trying to connect these two really specific prompts was a bit tricky. I decided to go with a “Charlotte’s Web” theme on the first, with all of Charlotte’s spider babies hatching out of […]

Having upped the ante by making myself combine two days when they share a spread in the sketchbook, I’m glad Drawlloween upped the ante also, by coming up with some punny and more elaborate categories this year. Since the prompt is meant to sound like the “Better Homes & Gardens” […]
Day Four and the first part of the newest combined drawing spread will be a lovely farm of tentacles inked in the sketchbook. Stay tuned for Day 5 tomorrow.

For “Carnival Creeps” I went with a trio and instead of the stereotypical “evil clown” I just went with a slightly creepy one with a “Free Hugs” sign, along with the type of carny guy running the poorly-inspected ride that makes most stand-up comic’s routines and lastly, the lady serving […]
