So I thought I would do something special for Friday, I only started using my Wacom Table a few months ago and haven’t done much of anything with it yet besides color in my strips. So I thought that if I had to picture Taryn resembling something to real life, this might be something similar to that. Sorry if you were expecting a strip today, the story will resume on Monday with the introduction of 2 new characters. Hope everyone has an awesome weekend!

I also made a new wallpaper

I don’t know whether this is awesome or terrifying.

  Now that the shock’s worn off, I quite like it. Its sort of Dave McKean-ish.

    I looke dup his stuff, I dearly hope my work isn’t nearly as dark as that (yikes)

      Well no, but it sorta reminds me of…. never mind.

This is amazing! Let’s see more such things!

  I eventually would like to do this with the entire cast… eventually, haha
  - Josh
    
    I don’t know, maybe it’s just me, but I prefer to see them in their original style, I personally think that Taryn is waaaay cuter than this.
    
    Like is said, this could very well only be me.
    
    But, props on the art, it’s definitely better than anything I could ever do
    XD
    - Josh
      
      On second thought, I would like to see Monty in this style
      
      XD
      - Teddy
        
        I second that!
    - http://nerfthiscomic.com sc0tticus
      
      thank you! I’m not quite sure if she would look like this, but this was more of a quick study to see how undertaking a tsk with my wacom would be The next one will be Monty I assure you
      - Mary
        
        i cant wait to see monty like this xD
      - http://nerfthiscomic.com sc0tticus
        
        actually I’m fairly excited about that too, maybe I’ll make it a wallpaper

I am going to go with pretty dang sweet. +1 awesome.

  haha thank you
CyberSkull

She’s so pretty.

</awkward>
Teddy

whoa. I’m in love.
- sagocha
  
  HA I knew teddy would like this one. It was the first thing I thought of when I saw it.
  - Teddy
    
    Lol wow, never knew I was so famous!
  - Mikey
    
    HHAHAHAhaha Sagocha, sorry just read the last blog post from yesterday where joe said you were my vagina. I would probably slit my own wrists if my vagina tried to grab kids 20 years younger than them. Sorry Demi its true. Its too bad that i can’t control this voting thing on this site, i’m sure 98% of the readers believe you would be the catcher sagocha.
    - Teddy
      
      um
      
      what?
    - sagocha
      
      @ Mikey OK so first of lets set asside the details that you are , in fact, a raging vag.
      - sagocha
        
        As far as the voting thing goes, last I checked accused felons are not allowed to vote. And I am pretty sure I saw an entire episode of “How to catch a predator” dedicated to you, with interviews and commentary by mr. chris Hansen. How could you say those things to the 12 year old, they had the internet chat on paper. Tisk tisk

        finally found an updated picture of you http://femmepower.crunchystyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/homeless-man-goes-wireless_thumb1.jpg

this is lovely. in fact, you have such passionate supporters that i was woken out of a sound sleep last night after midnight by someone insisting i check out this update immediately. worth it.
Bee

EPIC. You are definitely getting a +5 morale boost followed by a +10 epicness boost.

I’d die to see Monty and Chase like this. Seriously. Just don’t make Monty too squirrely.

  thank you and i will eventually do all the cast like this, maybe one a month or something like that

Wow, this is absolutely incredible. I always like (Though I’ve really only seen it one other time) when the artists make a “real life” rendition of their characters… hrmm, I should do this for my characters, and then pimp yo shiz for giving me the idea.
- http://nerfthiscomic.com sc0tticus
  
  I’m not sure how often its done, but I’ve had a lot of fun doing it, can’t wait to tackle this kind of thing again
  - http://afterthefall.thecomicseries.com/ Stray Wolf
    
    Not often at all I suspect. Like I said I’ve only seen it one other time from Lackadaisy, but all their characters are cats, so they made em look like real people.
    I’m looking forward to the next time ya do this.
Antipatheia

Basically, to reiterate what everyone else is saying, this is frickin’ amazing!

  haha thank you, I hope that from this point on when I do renditions like this, they always get better

matt

kinda reminds me of Rosario Dawson that might be just me but it really does and you know what i think Ms. Dawson is beautiful hence i will say the same for your artwork here kudos Scott you are an amazing artist
- http://nerfthiscomic.com sc0tticus
  
  thank you for the compliment, I’m not by any means amazing at this but I hope in the upcoming months I can do more of this and better, people who are truly amazing are guys like raymond swanland.

I had work all day yesterday, so I’m only seeing this just now. And I LIKE IT A LOT.

ha… I just use my tablet for colouring too. xD

I really need to practice with it more, because last time I drew something completely with my tablet it came out all wonky. Your’se looks really good though!
- http://nerfthiscomic.com sc0tticus
  
  this took me a little over 3 hours, it was much easier than you might think, about 50 layers of gaussian blurs with a ton of layer overlays such as soft light, color burn, screens.
  - http://devinhoo.com Devinhoo
    
    Wow.
    
    Yeah, if I really spent the effort, I could make nice things with my tablet, or just draw my comics completely in photoshop, but as it is, I barely have half an hour straight to work on a comic after I scan it and before I post it, much less three hours. I need to work more on it though… >.>
