I've been doing a lot of repetitive doodling lately, trying to get better at making decent lines. There are still bad habits I have that need to be dropped but I feel like it's getting easier. Most of these doodles start out as just swirls and curves, until I can see shapes emerging. I'm working on more things for Shitty Wizards, but as a quick aside I wanted to try a quick 3 panel dumb thing.
It usually takes me forever to get to the point, so I figured trying to pare down a bit would be a good idea. Still a bit of a stretch for a joke, but at least it's over quickly.
Other than that, I've been trying to come up with other characters. Here's one:
Mr. and Mrs. The Elder Thing. If remember the second Shitty Wizards I put up, you saw Kathy Lou, who is this couple's daughter. They behave as stereotypical sitcom parents, except the father is trapped in an endless nightmare of madness and agony due to Elder Things reproducing by absorbing the souls of mortals and feeding off their suffering. He is still very polite.
I can't shake the need to make everything like Saved by the Bell. I think my entire generation might be a bit ruined by this.
