Frank's Sketchbook Entry of the Day

Holy crap! I meant it as a joke yesterday when I was talking about how I'd have no time once I got Internet at home. I didn't have things set up and settled until about 1am after 30 minutes on the phone to technical support. Plus, I didn't have a chance to finish the last 40 pages of a book I was reading. And I had wanted to draw today's cartoon and of course hadn't even got near that. And that's all without any Internet Porn!

I seriously considered drawing some stick-figure cartoon today, but I couldn't bring myself to it. This was just in pencil, no inking, but I think that's fine. A quick color gradient in Photoshop becaues that takes almost no time. Yes, the two figures from yesterday and today are intended to be the same person (ostensibly me, I suppose). And the line is a parody of Dave Bowman's last line from 2001 as he enters the monolith. I could have taken it another couple of steps, like have the dialog between the two be "My god it's full of stars!" "Frank, it's full of porn." "My god, it's full of PORN stars!" Hmmm, actually, I kind of like that one better. Oh well...maybe another time.

And as much as I might knock the Internet, obviously I wouldn't get it if I didn't think it was useful. It just reduces my claim to be a "high-tech luddite" by a notch.
