Great series! But how many times can a man get flattened in his lifetime? :P

I love how you never reveal the face of Larry's wife.

So in this rendition of the story, shouldn't Gladys be the good witch of the North Trailer Park, instead of Glenda? She could add a few sequins to her turquoise robe and use a feather duster (or a flyswatter, whatever's handy) for her magic wand, you see. AND seems to me that Larry's haggly wife ought to be in charge of the flying monkeys this go round. uhuh. Everybody else (including Larry... gets to take a picnic lunch to Opiate Park (where the poppies grow, of course) where they get wasted on poppy fumes, while eating poppyseed cake. Meanwhile, Larry's haggly wife is busy tending the monkeys and he hooks up with this young chick that blew on over from the trailer park, as well. I think her name is Dorothy? Then Wanda shows up, and it's like a free for all between Gladys, Wanda, Larry's wife and Dorothy... that's when the poppies hit the fan, you see, and Larry wonders if the circus midgets from the trailer park can rescue him from the war zone.

Ummm Has DBA been hanging out in the poppy field awhile? *giggles. :D I see some ideas in there. :D I am loving this series and always look forward to the next one. Love the little flowerpot. :P

Smoking is bad for the soul.
Great drawing! Verry pretty.

Smoking is good for the soul, bad for the body, maybe. lol. You did a great job on that holding-a-cig in your mouth profile.

Supposed to be a quick sketch until I decided to color it. Spent the majority of the time on that unfortunately... turned out ok.

On a side note, if you use alot of layers on a large canvas in shi-painter it's going to crash if your java is left in it's default setting. I found this out the hard way by ruining an advanced piece when I did a safety save after java ran out of memory. 2 hours of linework disappeared and no the undo button won't fix it and I had about 9 layers all mashed together in a big mess.

Anyway, try adding this to the Java applet runtime settings in your windows control panel: "-Xms64m -Xmx512m" (remove the quotes)
-Xms <-- minimum memory size java will use I have it set to 64Mb
-Xmx <-- maximum memory java will use, mine is at 512Mb so adjust this according to your system (I had to do this or the advanced piece I was working on wouldn't even load!)
Java is set to only use up 64Mb MAX by default...which is easily eaten up by several full layers on a large canvas.

*This stuff may not make a difference if you use less than 4 layers so if it ain't broke don't fix it...

Sean Penn, I believe? Well done Jay.
terracotta (Feb 10, 2006)
You nailed his expression; eyes and mouth great. Thanks for the java info--I have had a couple of saved pictures refuse to load or, if they were saved with layers, only partially load. They were neither large canvas or on the advanced board so I'm not sure if your 'fix' will help but I'll try it.
HunterKiller_ (Feb 10, 2006)
I dunno who that guy is, though he looks familiar. Likin' the loose style.
Jervy (Feb 11, 2006)
Thanks for the comments!
dapoppa: YOU WIN TEH PRIZE!!!! Yep it sure it Sean Penn...with a sunburn lol

tc: It should fix that if you run out of memory, but if the layers come up merged together...you only hope is the undo button. I'm lucky because I had an earlier save with the line art only so I can finish it in painter.

HK: Sean Penn is an american actor...the guy in 21grams or I am Sam.

is that a dream catcher thingy in the window? if not you need to add one :P
JoeNobody (Feb 10, 2006)
The thing in the window is a "Tot Finder" sticker that was popular way back when. So any emergency crews being called to a house would know what room a child occupied.

.....and do you really think I need to add a dream catcher? I know that if this was actually the trailer park I lived in, ALL me dreams would have already been answered. :-D
emmamommalag (Feb 10, 2006)
Ahahahaa That's priceless! You forgot one thing, though.. one of those rear-view bent-over fat ladies in flowered dresses with bloomers placards.
DarkCloak (Feb 10, 2006)
Oh man, this reminds me of home! It just needs some christmas lights (we keep those things up all year) and piles of old useless bicycles we've collected over the years.

Maybe he's holding some kinda of binocular pinpointing device. The bloke can pinpoint and then the tank fires automatically! :O
Love the angles in this piece. Great draw! :)
marcello (Feb 9, 2006)
actually terracotta, that's a new 2draw feature I'm testing out on random accounts. it deduces the content of the picture and generates appropriate sound effects/ambient music when possible
DarkCloak (Feb 10, 2006)
Very nice piece!

I find it interesting how you flip the image several times when you did this... He looks like one of those murderous clown types, dark and scary.
