…of DOOM!!

Just in case the photocopied PowerPoint slide didn’t give it away, this began life on a handout during a class presentation. (Colored later, though.)
When it comes to back-story, however, I’m not sure if she’s deadly with her weapon of choice, or merely thwacky-squeaky. This is something that requires much ponderment.
Okay, the blog software is updated and happily running on the new server.
Hopefully things should be back to normal at this point.

So, I get to be efficient here. Not only is mermaid our current topic for Barefoot Kraken, but it also fits in nicely with this week’s Illustration Friday topic, “Tales and Legends”.


It’s time for another edition of Barefoot Kraken, now with 50% more artist!
After a bit of time off, we return with the topic of silverfish (from Jessica). Caleb will be joining us for this one, and if he turns out to be a consistent contributor, we may have to come up with a new name… Barefoot Kraken of Westerness comes to mind. Though if anyone has any other less complicated ideas, let us know.
Anyway, above you may see the Lepisma saccharina performing that most important of animal rites, growing to gigantic proportions and climbing a prominent landmark.

…And, while I’m on the subject of stickmen, I should remind everyone to check out Stickman Studios, Josiah’s new blog featuring thrice-weekly updates and a cast of stickmen acting out well-known stories (usually).

This was all spawned from that strange Santa sketch, of course, but it seems to ring true at a certain level. Or all of them. Or something.
Now I just have to start churning out bumper stickers and get rich.
