Louis Sucks with Girls Part 2

Louis sucking with girls, but not being a stick figure.

Louis still sucking with girls and not being a stick figure

Yay for amazingly skinny people with misproportioned limbs!
And no I don't mean my stick figures.
-
Ha ha ha, very cute. I laughed at the first two.
Also your skinny people with misproportioned limbs are not bad! That is how I draw.
-
drawing from life might help if you want to change but your style is effective at translating emotion so I say go with your strengths.
-
Thanks, you guys. I'm glad you liked them. I should probably try drawing from life, but I tend to only draw during boring lectures (hence everything being on lined paper). Thanks again for the feedback!
-
ha, i totally dig the first one. you non-stick figures remind me of what i used to draw like at one point.
nicely done
-
Haha --I loved the La Vie Bohem one best :) --As a RENT fan, I would probably laugh my ass off rather then walk faster away... But I'm weird ;) Cute though! I like 'em.
-
Viva la vie bohem! I would have probably jumped up there and sang with him, but unfortuantely for Louis the people he goes to school with aren't as interested in musicals as he is, so she didn't even know waht he was diding. Too bad he didn't happen to be on "Your Eyes." He has a ratehr nice voice; maybe the girl would have been impressed instead of creeped out.
And thanks, Mr u Suk. Ah, how many times have we been at a loss for words and recalled something that we had memorized years before in eight grade US history? Well, I haven't very many times. That's actually all I rmemeber of the preamble, at least, all I remembr in order. The rest is kind of jumbled up. And you say you used to draw like this? Did you get better or did you stop drawing?
-
i got better, i could never stop drawing if i tried.
I was born into this world by 2 sign artists, by basement is a art studio, and my job is making signs. my fav thing to draw are album covers and then put them on my wall as posters. i have a poster of The Cult's Sonic Temple and Love, a drawing my friend made of the cover of Strong Bad Sings, and i have a (very awesome) painting of the Rolling Stones mouth logo.
im actually trying (for like the 3rd freaking time) to make a webcomic. i actually like how this one is going, all i need is a scanner and i'd show them.
-
That's pretty neat. If you get ahold of a scanner I'd love to see.
-
trust me, the scanner has been on the top of my list for a while now
-
Here are a couple more comics, these ones featuring another character of mine. His name is Francisco.
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/VLcomic.jpg)
I got lazy with that one. Drew everything once and copied and pasted as necessary. The other person is his roommate Garret. He looks like a chick here, but he just has nasty hair.
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/Pacojob1.jpg)
Not much to say on this one. Oh, right. He actually never wears his hat sideways. I just can't draw hats from the front.
-

He has a mullet :lol:
-
Kind of. It's just supposed to be long hair with bangs.
-
Thanks. I used to write one shots, but some things just work better in comic form. I thank whoever invented stick figures for giving me the chance to draw out my ideas. Maybe my non-stick figures are okay, but I'd never be able to draw them consistently over the course of a comic strip, plus it would take me so long I'd probably just give up after the first panel.
-
--That's OK. Stick figures are part of what actually makes it funny :wink:
-
Here's a new one I wrote today during a lecture.
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/LongWeekend.jpg)
-
To true...way to true. :lol:
-
Give me REM sleep pr give me death.
-
What I can draw, but with better humor.
-
THe first two were hella funny.
-
Thank you!
I drew another one in class. The writing is hard to read but I'm too lazy to take it out and type it in. Man, and I even tried to be careful to write it neatly.
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/fullofit.jpg)
-
Hehe... I'm not sure what that fourth word in the first panel is (shunked?), but it's still funny, lol.
-
It says "shanked." Paco likes to tell his room mates that back home he goes around shanking people. (Yes, Paco is the real shank master, not me). Jimmy's right, he's full of shit, but he mostly says things like that to try to get Garret to stop prying into his life.
Garret: *pries*
Paco: *obviously lies*
Garret: *leaves him alone*
-
Thank you! I hope whoever you use it on gets it. A couple of my friends didn't.
-
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/slime.jpg)
Radioactive slime: performance enhancer of the future.
-
nice, radioactive waste is always awesome. although when i saw the first panel my mind said "super sayian joke" thank god i was wrong
nice-tastic (on a somewhat related note, i "inherited" a all-in-one, can't get it to scan now but ill get it working soon)
-
I haven't checked this thread in a while.
Ooo a scanner. Did you finally get it to work?
Two new strips. I'll save the other one in case no one responds to this one and I need an excuse to bump the thread.
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/friends.jpg)
-
Wow, I totally know people like that. They're kind of obnoxious... Actually, my Floor-Stalker (as I will refer to her...) is rather like that, and it really just means that they don't have any friends... It's rather sad.
-
Aw. Garret does have friends who actually like him, though.
I feel like your Floor Stalker. I want to have friends on the floor but I secretly feel like no one actually likes me.
-
OHMIGOD, ME TOO!!!!!!
I feel bad that I don't particularly care for my Floor-Stalker, it's just...she's very clingy, and I don't think we have very much in common. I never feel like I have anything to say to her, but she always comes over to my room, and just..argh! The girl is addicted to Titanic, okay?! That movie was cool for like three months before everyone moved on --but no, she watches it like contstantly!
...Anyway...your comics...hitting close to home, lol.
-
There was a girl at the begining of the year who would come into my room and say hi. I'd say hi back, then she'd just stand there. I think she wanted to have a conversation, but was hoping I'd start one because she actually had nothing to say. It was very awkward for me and I tended to just go back to whatever I was doing.
When I hang out with floor people it basically goes like this.
Floor people: *converse*
Me: *tries to contribute*
Floor: *pause* *resume conversing*
Me: *sits quietly*
Not fun.
New strip!
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/stroop.jpg)
-
Hahaha! We actually did that in my Psychology class the other day --though I have seen it before. Those people are bastards!
--The girl that comes to my room does that too. I ususally keep doing what I'm doing until she finally leaves. Luckily I only converse with her (on the occasion she actually has something worthwhile to say), and one other girl on my floor whom I actually like, but is now ditching me on a regular basis to hang out with her boyfriend, thus leaving me to the likes of Jennifer. Argh.
...I like how Paco's hat is on sideways like Will Smith in Prince of Bel-Air. Random, I know.
-
No, no Scarlette. I feel the same way, lol.
-
You guys are sweet. I have to make sure I keep thinking up fun Paco stories. :-)
His hat is on sideways because I can't draw them from the front. :oops: But if you like it then yay! 8-)
We did that experiemnt in my psych class, too. Now I have to write up a method section. :x I don't want to be a research psychologist!
Wow, i used a lot of smilies. :-o
-
although this is kinda random, this is a somewhat musical forum so it makes sense.
Every time i see Paco i start singing "Paco!" by Ladytron, its kinda freaky.
*ground floor lady's clothes sports wear stationary....hmm hm hm hm*
And on the Plus Side ShankMaster, i have (finally) got the Scanner to work, sadly my comp A Sploded last week and i lost all my hard drive, which included my Photoshop CS2 (and my music T_T, got most of it back) so they are going to be black/white and no speech
[Edit]
Hey i got it all to work right....odd. i expected more stuff to go wrong >_>
(http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b302/mrusuk/04-08-2007100631PM.jpg)
For the record this comic is like the 7th or something strip in the (FYI: most likely never going to see the light of day) webcomic ive been trying. i chose this one because it looked best. The male is Rand, A kid straight outta collage who loves music and is a bit of a nerd, the Female i have not named yet, i am totally open to suggestions for names. and the place they are in is Rand's Corner Coffee place (also unnamed) save the QC coffee house connections, ive had the idea for it for a while.
this was a one time thing because this has nothing to do with Stick Figures, but if anyone (for some reason) wants to see more ill create a thread for it.
-
Those people are adorable! I would love to see more.
As for names, for some reason I really love the name Marilee, but so far haven't managed to stick the name onto a major character. Probably because of my lack of major female characters.... anyway, if I think of any more anmes I'll let you know.
-
Hmmmmm...I like the art...but I don't get why it's funny. :? I think I am missing something... Oh well!
-
That's because the speech that makes it funny hasn't been put in due to a lack of Photoshop. I'm guessing he doesn't want to muck up his art by writing them in himself. It can get pretty messy.
-
lol, okay. I'll take your word for it :)
-
Those people are adorable! I would love to see more.
As for names, for some reason I really love the name Marilee, but so far haven't managed to stick the name onto a major character.
Although i like the name suggestion i would rather go with Marlee (i assume the name you just suggested is pronounced differently).
and ThePQ4, yes it's not funny yet. but thats something i need to work on. making sure its going to be funny. lord knows its easy enough in real life but im actually havong a hard time writing something funny :|
*note* im creating another strip, when its done ill post it on a thread and we can discuss there, im invading Shankmaster's thread with this crap
-
I kinda rock the stick figure style, too. I can drawing other things too, I just like the way these look. They aren't exactly stick figures, but they aren't really anything else.

(http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q228/andlemonade/Newtattoo-1.jpg)
-
I registered just to say i like your strip. Keep it up. :)
edit: I'm actually tempted to try to do fanart :) Srsly.
-
I made a fan comic :D I bought a graphire4 last year and haven't used it for much, so eh. I wanted to try Jeph's style as shown in his FAQ thingamabob, so I thought, two birds with one ... cooking pot, right? Figured it'd be slightly ironic, since this is a stick figure comic on QC's forum (a shibby stick figure comic though) and doing the fancomic somewhat in QC's style would be... yeah.
edit: linking instead since I suddenly read the forum guidelines.
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y291/deriman/fancomic.png
I dunno if I captured their voices right, or facial expressions. Or even their hair and eye colors. Or Paco's hat. But that scraggly hair shouted blond to me. I dunno, hope you're not offended.
edit: i just read more things in the I'm new place, and now I'm jittery. I hope no one hates me now :/ But um, this is sort of a semi-subfandomthing... no? :/ Hi. *hides*
-
Hahaha, cute. I like it ;)
-
If that was for my fancomic, thanks, if it was for the shankmaster's comics, then I agree :D
... also, we did have pet chickens once, and then one day, my dad did cook them. I guess they were really his, we just played with them.
-
It was for you, lol
Chickens are awesome. My parent's have never gotten around to buying me any though :( We don't really have a good place for them, plus we've got a few vicious cats that wouldn't think twice about taking down a chicken... Silkies are my favorite!
-
Then thanks, I wonder where the shankmaster is though :/ Hopefully in a boring Physics class, but that's just selfish of me to wish.
An uncle raises some for fighting. Roosters.
-
all my comics are made of stick figures... they're ok. but yours are better drawn than mine.
I guess I'll post them, if its not stealing your thunder.

Oh My God.
I'm sorry i took so long to respond. I've been ahving assloads of computer problems.
But Oh My God.
I think I may cry.
I am so flattered.
Stick figures! And you! Wow. Just, wow.
Yes, Garret is blond. Good call. Paco's hair is right, too. His hat should be red, though. And Garret's eyes are brown. But wow, thank you so much. I think you just made my life.
-
Kid Carnival, post away!
Man, I almost forgot I had a new strip. Paco at his bookstore job.
[img width= height=]http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/hentai.jpg[/img]
By the way, I don't know why I dind't think of this before, but if you guys are interested in learning more about Paco and co (more than I can draw) you can check out my lj community Four Fresh Prompts (http://community.livejournal.com/4freshprompts/profile). It's a general prompt community and you're all free to join and post your work if you want. You can click around, but if you want to go straight to the Paco stuff, click the little heart towards the top of the page then click the link that says "Van Leeuwenhoek University." Warning: Not everything is as light-hearted as the strips here.
-
Ah, I thought Paco would have a hat collection. I'm glad you liked it though.
Must resist urge to type emoticons.
-
Hehehe....$300 worth of Hentai. -Awesome-...
I think asking someone over 18 to buy you illustrated porn is way cooler then asking them to buy you beer. :laugh:
-
Paco only has one hat. It's a very special hat. He pretty much can't go more than a few minutes without it on. He's gotta work on that, because lawyers don't wear baseball caps and that's what he wants to be.
PQ4, I'm over 18. Would you like some illustrated porn?
Paco's already pretty much fed up with porn readers. Garret has a collection.
-
Ah, I forgot to say thank you. I was posting in a hurry and forgot.
So this hat of his is like Padma's from FH. I hope it isn't actually alive now. Because man...
As for illustrated porn, is Garret's collection in stick figures, too? That must be some kind of ... odd. And existent as per that Quantum Fetish mechanics thing.
-
Would you like some illustrated porn?
Only if it's stick-figure porn. I think that is the one thing I have -not- yet seen...
Oh wait, yes I have. Damn it! And I think it was a Flash Cartoon too!
...I think I can offically call myself the most corrupted person in America. -Yes-! (Oh wait, should I not be proud of that?...Oh well!)
-
Garret's porn is actually in novel form. I can't draw stick figure porn. You wouldn't be able to tell the penis from an arm.
No, Paco's hat is not alive. It would have quit on him by now because it's been through a lot of abuse.
-
Ooh! Novel porn is fun!
Well, okay, for the first half hour. Then it gets boring and repetative and you wonder why you payed nearly $20 bucks for the damn book...
::sigh::
...Sorry, I felt I needed to share that :lol:

those are just a few, I'll post more if you don't hate them.
-
The Santa one is funny. I caa't read the second one because it's small. I can't follow the fight. I think it's cut off? (*edit* Okay, it's not cut off. I just didn't notice the scroll bar.) I'm also just generally bad at following still action, hence why I don't read action manga. The ranch one was really cute.
New strip!
[img width= height=]http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/Serious.jpg?[/img]
-
Hehehehe...Shankmaster, you always make me giggle...
As for you, Kid, yeah...the Santa and Dood Ranch ones were amusing, but I too couldn't decifer the tininess of the 2nd one...
-
Glad to do it.
I really like that particular strip because even though Garret looks horrible, that's probably the best Jimmy I've ever drawn.
-
Hehehehe...Shankmaster, you always make me giggle...
As for you, Kid, yeah...the Santa and Dood Ranch ones were amusing, but I too couldn't decifer the tininess of the 2nd one...
yeah. sorry bout that. I can post my photobucket info and you can search it yourself.

What game is Paco playing? I don't think I get it.
Those are big pictures, Kid Carnival, I think it'd have worked better with faces.
You know, T.Shank (your name is pretty long, though I'm sure your butt isn't equally big - what do we call you anyway?) maybe you should start posting a regular webcomic somewhere, like, smackjeeves or something and plug it in the Plug Yr Comic thread. :D

feel free to browse. I'm sure you'll be glad you did.

He's playing Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney. You get to shout objection! into the microphone. I want it.
I've thought of making a regular webcomic, but I probably wouldn't be able to keep up on updates.
You can call me Claudia.
-
well claudia, I give you props. I like the fact that your comics have faces. I tried that with mine. those comics were left on the bus or burned.
-
My best friend hates that my stick figure don't have noses. I think noses would look funny, and they'd make profiles difficult to draw. I'm glad you like the faces.
I've been running dry on Paco ideas. I've been laying on the angst in my writing lately, whihc makes it hard to crank out funny one-liners. Here's a comic about someone else, though. Remember poor Louis from my first post in this thread? Well, this is his best friend Hayden, and Hayden's experiences with women have been a little different from those of his musically and historically inclined pal.
[img width= height=]http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/Hayden.jpg[/img]
My friend says the chick looks like a dude in both her top row appearances, but she is in fact a chick, which Hayden can attest to.
-
(http://pics.livejournal.com/fivepencepiece/pic/00007ay6/s320x240)
-
I want to say that Paco has a mild crush on you, too, but he probably thinks your a freak face and that you should stay away from him.
Don't feel bad, though. He thinks that about everyone. :-D
-
I drew up a couple more strips, but I'm home and my scanner is big and heavy, so it's at school. I was bored so I thought I'd use my mad Photoshop skills. Okay, so they're horrible, but I was jsut having some fun.
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/Marisolcopy.jpg)
Paco's love interest. Well, sort of. It's complicated. Anyway, I just used the overlay setting ont he airbrush to change the color of the lines, then I used the painbucket to fill the stuff in. So nothing fancy. I also didn't want to bother with finding a good skin tone.
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/fanartavi.jpg)
I too k Dreimon's rendition of Paco and changed the hat color to red with the airbrush. I love the airbrush. I like changing the colors of things.
-
Hehe, the airbrush is cool, yeah :D
I'd make a comic but I can't think of anything to make. xD Maybe after I don't have the nursing licensure exam looming over my head like a (badly aimed? it's supposed to be over my neck :/) guillotine. Ah, I'm sure it'll be fine.
And the chick did sort of looked like a dude in the top row. It looked sort of like Jesse from Team Rocket. But he looks sort of like a girl so I suppose it evens out.
-
Wow, i totally thought I replied to this. I distinctly remember correcting you and saying that Jesse is the girl and James is the boy. Oh well. It must not have gone through.
I also said good luck on your exam, so.... good luck on your exam!
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/laminate.jpg)
My friend wanted me to draw them with hands.
-
Hehe, thanks. Now I'm just waiting on results. Then I'll get to apply for jobs and whatnot, if I pass. I'll apply for the US license soon enough, I guess. And find a job even if I don't pass, I suppose.
I'm guessing a lot. So.. where are you? Hehe.
Nice sorta fourth wall breaking there. It was inevitable.
By the way, I hope I'm not threadjacking (again?) but I tried drawing in a more Superhero comic-ish style and I decided to put Paco and Garret in as cameo extras in the background... I don't think I colored them very well, I rushed it... and I'm not exactly an expert at it. I'm not sure I captured their essence well either. Paco's not even facing the camera. But I think I gave Garret a mullet.
But linky. (http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y291/deriman/dvwwcolored.png)
By the way, I still think you can have a webcomic using those strips. Someone linked a webcomic in some thread here that was a stickfigure comic. It's called Wayneker. Hehe. So, just saying.
-
hehehehe. That is -so- random. Laminate a room...aaaaanyway...I obviously need to go back to bed. Ack.
-
You're not threadjacking, Dreimon. I love that you draw my characters. What the heck is Garret doing, though?
And PQ4, I was gonna say saran-wrap, but it wouldn't fit. Either way, you'd want to protect your stuff, too, if you shared a room with Garret. He can be messy at times.
-
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/icecream.jpg)
-
Hehehehe. Shankmaster, you always make me giggle like a little girl. --AND WOW! He took off his hat! Crazy!
-
This would be why Paco doesn't date.
Well, he takes it off to sleep, too. (Okay, so he takes it off to sleep SOMETIMES).
-
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/Police.jpg)
The writing police are out to get me.
-
Haha! I love the police hat!
-
Haha, I wish I did, too. Thanks.
Dude, you deserve a biggest fan award. Want me to draw you something special? Just keep my skills in mind, haha.
-
(http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m289/the_shankmaster/StopGrowing.jpg)
A Paco and Jimmy moment. There aren't enough of these, though Paco and Jimmy woudl beg to differ.
-
I feel like that everytime I stand next to someone who is way taller then me --and for a girl, I'm pretty tall (5'10''). There was a guy a few years older then me in high school was like 7 foot something, and I could never walk directly past him without feeling like a midget... Eek.
-
Man, that's even taller than Jimmy! He's 6'5. You're also taller than Paco. He's 5'8. He's not done growing yet, though! (Jimmy is, thank God.) He eats really well now that he's at school, so now he has the nutirition to meet the height potential that genetics gave him. Lucky him. I was already done growing by the time I experienced the wonders of daily buffet-style dining.

Zomg it's Paco.
-
Hey, your art is nearing Dragon Ball Z quality. But your stories are probably better. I never did watch Dragon Ball anything...
Is Paco mad because he's not wearing his hat or because he's in his ... heart undies.
Does he feel more naked without the hat, or without his pants? These are important questions one must have answered to better understand their characterizations and some other fancy writing term. Hehe. Okay, maybe not so important.
Man, I've been .. missing a lot. Oh well, I've mostly been procrastinating and being a bum - haven't even drawn anything to put a Paco/Garrett cameo onto for a long time!
Though I think I've managed to ape Todd Nauck's Young Justice style a little bit so my drawing skills are slightly improved...
Anyway, I digress - often.... So... how do you still not have a webcomic yet? hehe.
-
Dreimon! I've missed you!
Well, DBZ eyes are the only kind I could ever draw. It's not so obvious when one is bigger than the other, like with other styles.
Generally, Paco feels more naked without his hat. In fact, a t-shirt and boxers are his normal pjs, so he really doesn't have a problem being in his boxers in his own dorm room. The exception is this pair, since Jimmy liked to make fun of them. Jimmy calls them Paco's "Gay-man underwear."
So to why he's mad, I think he woke up to find his hat isn't where he left it and he's got a hunch Jimmy knows something about it.
Man, I am so slash-minded. You said Paco/Garret and I was like "huh, what, yaoi pairing?"
I don't have a web comic because I have no room to have my scanner out all the time, so it's put away in a closet and dragging it out when I need it is a bitch. I can't imagine doing it three or so times a week.
-
A Yaoi pairing? Hehe, I never thought of that until you mentioned it. Really.
You should consider building some sort of art buffer, so you'll have a couple comics ready for the entire week, and before they've been run through, scanning three or five more!
You can do it once a week. Need it thrice, chop it once, to... paraphrase Rachael Ray in a situation where she doesn't really apply.
Really though, it might be interesting. And if I wasn't so busy/lazy, I'd offer to color your Sundays, hehe. Okay, I'm mostly lazy, and I'm not doing that much either, not until I go get some sort of job handing sharp objects to people cutting people up. Surgeons, in a hospital, that's it, right! (insert smiley here)
But for now, I've decided to do a Young Justice fancomic in a style I don't have the skills for.
Oh and I didn't even realize it was the eyes. Hehe.
-
A buffer is a good idea. I suppose what with not having school until January, I might as well give it a shot. Any recommendations for a place to put them up?
Man, I can see the color bars in Paco/Garret (Pacet? pronounced pocket?) fangirls' livejournal profiles. "Pacet is hate!sex love." And then of course there would have to be Garret/Paco (Garrco) and those color bars would say "Garrco is persistent love."
I swear I don't think about this a lot. >.>
Cutting people open is fun! I mean.... >.>
As for your fancomic, I'd like to see it.
Oh, and here's another strip.

Full list available upon request.

Hehehehe. THat's awesome!
-
Yeah, it was, wasn't it? Hehe, I didn't see that coming at all, which is a good thing.
It's the sort of unpredictability that works well in webcomics, I think. It's fresh, I guess, but not in a way that goes way over people's heads.
I wish I could do that. :)
-
And here I was unsure of this one. I mean, personally I loved it, but I thought it was just because of my love for Paco. I'm really glad you guys enjoyed it.
-
... woo! RENT quoted.
-
Yeah. While there are other musicals I think are better than RENT, RENT will always be my favorite.
Unless of course someone writes a Paco musical.
*edit* Just thought I'd give you guys the heads up.

It's gonna start off with stuff you've already seen here, but it'll be new stuff eventually. Hopefully I can build up a good buffer in the meantime and get a bunch of them onto my computer at once. I'm gonna have a few more updates before I say anything int he plug your comic thread. Thanks for all the support!
-
Awesome.
And I've never seen/heard RENT.
-
You've never seen RENT?!?!?!?1 :-o
Go rent it or borrow it or buy it or something, right now.
And if you are lucky enough to see it live, I envy you so hard...
Heck, even get a copy of the soundtrack, it takes you through almost the whole story. It's amazing.
And yays for the website! ::bookmark!!::
-
Broadway cast version will take you through more of the story (since they sing EVERYTHING) but the movie soundtrack sounds a lot better because it's all clean and digitized. I have the movie soundtrack, but I'm thinking of also getting the original cast one. I had access to it for my American Musicals class and I miss it. T-T
-
I bought the Broadway Cast one shortly after I got the movie and the -short- version of the soundtrack... I like the Broadway one more. Not just because you get the story, but because you can hear the way it was meant to be heard.
-
Just thought I'd drop in and mention that today (18th) was totally Paco's birthday, and I completely forgot until like 2 hours ago so I didn't do anything to celebrate. Paco doesn't mind, though. He's used to it. Right, Paco?
Paco: Fuck you.
See? Default response.
-
Sept. 18? Sort of cool, my birthday was the 17th ... well still is, I guess. But I guess I was born past the dateline so it's sort of two days ahead. :)
-
Happy belated birthday which you share with Chuck from Simple Plan. What? Huh? Crush that lasted two years? Noooooo......
-
Just thought I'd let you guys know that I'm now posting new strips, starting with number 15.

A friend of mine made me some Paco drawings.

Haha, he's pretty.
-
Awwww, he IS pretty! the chibi at the bottom is my favorite, I think ;)
-
I agree that the chibi is awesome. My favorite, though, is the one on the right. I loved it enough to do some half-ass photoshopping.

Aaaand avatar form.

That's my new LJ default userpic. Yes.
-
Wonderful! Now this is originality at it's best.
Stick figures. Who'd a guessed?! I bet you could do something very big with your brand of comdey!
-
Thank you very much. I can only hope my novel is just as funny and people will read it.
-
My site kind of died. I took a week-long hiatus and it still hasn't ended. I'll try to get it going again when the new year starts, but for now I'm gonna post all the strips from there that havne't been posted here yet and maybe a couple that aren't there, i don't remember.

I have more but I think that's enough for now.
-
Hahahaha, I love the insult one ;)
-
Heehee. That's my best friend in there. This conversation actually happened. (Kind of, I was answering for Paco via AIM)
-
Haha, yes it does make the bulemic one even finnier, though he's only a stick figure because I can't draw him very well and I can't draw Jimmy at all. Garret I can draw decently, but not consistently.
If you want to take a crack at illustrating my comic you're welcome to it, unless you think non-stick figure people wouldn't be as charming.
-
Here are the rest of them.

And now they have all been seen, so I should draw some more.

It says "shanked." Paco likes to tell his room mates that back home he goes around shanking people. (Yes, Paco is the real shank master, not me). Jimmy's right, he's full of shit, but he mostly says things like that to try to get Garret to stop prying into his life.
Garret: *pries*
Paco: *obviously lies*
Garret: *leaves him alone*
Most Pacos are, indeed, shank-masters.
<- Shank-guru.
-
OMG it's the real Paco. :-o
While this is bumped, here's the first strip from the new story arc. I recently started updating the site again.
