Zombie Dad Plays Catch

Monday, May 21st, 2012

Zombie Dad Plays Catch cartoon by Amy Crook

Zombie Dad Plays Catch cartoon by Amy Crook, $99

I didn’t manage anything specific for Mother’s Day this year, but I have two cards for geek dads on Father’s Day. The first one was my Harry Potter art from February, and now I’ve got zombies to round out the selection.

I made the zombie kid somewhat gender neutral, so anyone can feel good suggesting that their dad would still play catch with them even if they were both to become the brain-hungry undead. And if you use a head for catch, then it’s a game and a snack after!

Zombie Dad Plays Catch, 8″x5″ pen & ink and Copic markers on paper, $99 with free shipping.

The cards are available in my Etsy shop, of course, in plenty of time for Father’s Day!

Tenth Doctor sketch 1

Tenth Doctor, sketch 1, by Amy Crook

Tenth Doctor, sketch 1,
by Amy Crook

I have finally accepted the inevitability that I’ll end up drawing Doctor Who cartoons, and as such worked up this little sketch of the Tenth Doctor. I’m not sure I’ve quite got his chin and mad hair working yet, but the costume is just right.

Doctor Who Bookmark 1

Doctor Who Bookmark 1 by Amy Crook

Doctor Who
Bookmark 1
by Amy Crook

I’ve optimistically numbered this 1, assuming I’ll get the urge to do more Doctor Who bookmarks in the future. The Eleventh Doctor is contemplating his lot with his TARDIS parked a bit precariously on a hill, and not liking his options at the moment. But don’t worry, he’ll figure some way out.

He’s the Doctor. It’s what he does.

Above, a close-up of our pouting Doctor. Below, he’s hanging out with my Free Comic Book Day book from last Saturday’s outing, an excellent reminder that I love sequential art and ought to do more of it.

Stuck in the Tubes, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook

Stuck in the Tubes, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook, $42

After a week of planets, I couldn’t resist doing another vaguely circular piece of art for my Saturday Morning Cartoon. This absurd little comic is just here to make you smile today, and possibly shake your head at what a silly person I am.

Go on, you know you want to. It’s okay.

Stuck in the Tubes, 7″x5″ pen and ink on paper, $42 with free shipping.

Cartoon: Jocelyne Leach

Saturday, April 28th, 2012

Jocelyne Leach as a Cartoon by Amy Crook

Jocelyne Leach as a Cartoon by Amy Crook

I like to think Jocelyne’s cartoon really shows how far I’ve come with this style of art. She’s doing a simple yoga pose with the legs, has her logo on her tank top, and is toasting us with a tasty green smoothie in her left hand. I think this tall, skinny image is going to go in her sidebar to welcome guests to her website.

Here’s to you, Jocelyne, for being a great client!

Dr. Watson says: Do Not Bend

John sketch by Amy Crook

John sketch by Amy Crook

This little Sharpie doodle adorned some Sherlock cards off to their new home, though by now I’ve already forgotten whose package he was on! His chin is pretty manly here, heh, but that’s how it goes when you’re writing with permanent marker on wobbly plastic.

Hope you’re having a great weekend!

Sherlock & Dr Watson Shrinky Dinks

Saturday, April 21st, 2012

Sherlock, Dr. Watson and a Tentacle, Shrinky Dinks, shrunk, by Amy Crook

Sherlock, Dr. Watson and a Tentacle, Shrinky Dinks,
shrunk, by Amy Crook

I was in the mood to doodle something silly the other day, so I made these three Shrinky Dinks. Above is the “after” version, next to a quarter so you get a feel for how big they turned out. Below is the “before” version, with the very same quarter for comparison.

If you’re coveting these, the tentacle’s been claimed but you can still get John & Sherlock as donation gifts in my HALP PLS computer replacement donation drive. Because while I mostly use natural media (physical not digital things) to make art, I still need a working computer to bring the art to you.
