doodles

As you can probably assume by the title of this page (the thing up there in big bold letters) this page holds my many doodles. Or atleast it should. As it turns out it really doesn't. What this page really holds is my art. Yes, I am such a Yuppie and I am so proud of my own poor graphite scratches on paper that I need to make a distinction between doodles and art.

No I'm just being sarcastic. There actually is no difference between a doodles and art. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise either. DaVinci? Yeah he was just doodling. Picasso? Renoir? Monet? Pollock? Yeah they were just bored in Chem class and started doodling. Picasso just had a really bad pair of glasses. As for Pollock... Let's just say he drew in the boys' bathroom.

Ok so maybe that's being a tad unfair. Rather it's gross misjudgement and horrendous misinformation. Anyways the entire point of all that I've been typing is that this page holds my doodles. If it was art then I'd have to rename this page so it's doodles. And yes there is a huge distinction between art and doodles. DaVinci, Pollock, Picasso, Renoir, Monet and others? Yeah that's art. Me, that's doodles. Got the picture? Great, onto some doodles.

For my really old and really crappy art (I mean doodles), you won't find it here. Because of the great Tripod crash of 2002 all such files were deleted in the great effort to create more room. But that does not mean my old art (I mean doodles) does not still live somewhere else. It's actually still alive at here in The Lair of the Snapping Turtle. The site's owner "Comatose_Turtle" happens to hold all of my doodles from the very humble beginnings until my most recent work.

As for all works done after the refurbishing of this site, yeah it's here. It's all ordered from newest and crappy to oldest and even crappier.

I was in a Love Hina mood so I drew some fan art of everybody's favorite cute, shy, prepubescent male fantasy, Maehara Shinobu. A sketch I drew of a friend of mine for that friend. No she doesn't really look like that (nobody actually looks like anime) and don't ask about the wardrobe. Also the paper this was drawn on was folded so there's a very unattractive crease through it.
A non-so-great sketch of a ninja dude. I was trying to do wicked sheet and cloth stuff but it just didn't work out as I had hoped. I'll stick to cute girls. Some Asuka Langely Sohryu from Neon Genesis Evangelion fanart A better than usual anime-ish sketch of myself I dig chicks with short hair I drew this after reading the 14th and final volume of the Love Hina Manga and then crying myself to sleep that night as I listened to the Love Hina OSTs. So yeah, I totally had no Love Hina on my mind.

I also have here another doodle collection which I like to call my "scratchpad". The line that seperates scratch pad from doodle is the nature in which the doodle was doodled. when I make my doodles I usually sit down and really try to draw something. When I make my scratchpad doodles though, I'm usually supposed to be doing something like math homework but I got bored. So basically my scratchpad drawings are made only when I'm not completely focussed and I'm just drawings on the nearest sheet of paper I can find. Often it's not good paper but rather scrap paper that was already used on the other side and that other side always appears when scanning. Also incredibly ironically despite the major differences in the nature of the doodling and the paper used, my scatchpad drawings are often better than my doodles. Life's just screwed up that way.

Like everything else, these are ordered from newest to oldest.

I really like this drawing. I do, I really really like it. I just wish it had been done on good paper instead of on the back of an old Math SATII Practice Test answer sheet. I also dig chicks with dark hair. Dark and short, even better ^_^ I was originally planning on drawing a girl, but then somehow it all backfired and I wound up drawing a bishounen. Meh, it was bound to happen someday. I can't avoid drawing males forever.

And yet I still have yet another collection of drawings. These drawings however are very different from any of the previous ones. These drawings are also not particularly very good. they're just featured here for the pure sake of hilarity. You see these are really just scans of my in-class English notes. The things is, there's tons of litte sketches on them hat I make when I'm really bored in English class. They're done in a rush on see-through lined paper with my English notes around them so they're really not very good drawings. However there is the occaisional exception to that rule.

Unlike everything else, these drawings are in the same order that they're in in my English notebook and do not come with thumbnail previews.
