Random things: Sentient, rampaging hate

Uh…so this one isn’t part of the 100 random things list either.  This one again comes behest my coworker.  He didn’t request for me to draw sentient, rampaging hate.  It kind of came out of one of our conversations in which I was hating everything so hard that the hatred was going to become sentient and rampage around the client site.

Now I feel like I should qualify the type of hate that I was feeling.  You know how when you have a tight deadline and you’re working hard to meet it?  And then everything in the world conspires against you to keep you from meeting that deadline?  And how you subsequently feel about everything around you, no matter how inoffensive and innocuous that thing is?  Yeah.  That’s what I’ve tried drawing.

Actually, it was supposed to be more globby and slimey with the pulsatey glow.  But I got lazy.  So it’s not very globby at all.  But I should be.

Sentient, rampaging hate

Random things: Grizzlicorn

The other day, I drew a this:

Grizzlicorn!

Grizzlicorn!

This isn’t from the list of 100 things to draw when you’re bored, in case you’re looking for it.  I ended up drawing a grizzlicorn because one of my coworkers asked for it.

Perhaps you are asking why would he ask for such a thing.  It’s because he saw me doodling during a meeting one time but he couldn’t quite see what I was drawing.  I was drawing a shark (of course).  For some reason, he thought I was drawing a butterfly.  And when it came out that he thought I was drawing a butterfly, he was ridiculed by our other coworkers and me.  He obviously doesn’t know me terribly well.

Later that day, I decided to draw him a shark with butterfly wings instead of fins.  And I did so.  On a post it.  Which is why I didn’t post it (hehehehe) first.  I have a photo of it, but I gave the post it to him so I can’t scan it.  Maybe I’ll draw a shark with butterfly wings some other time and post it (hahahahaha).

Now then, my coworker rather liked the shark with butterfly wings and asked if I could draw a grizzly with a unicorn horn.  He thought it would be ridiculous because grizzlies are fearsome animals and it would be funny to put a unicorn horn on one of them.  Little did he know that I was thinking more of a derpy grizzly as opposed to a fierce grizzly.

As for the name of this thing, my coworker kept calling it a grizzly-unicorn, which I thought was unwieldy.  So I shorted it to grizzlicorn, which he liked.  But later, a friend pointed out to me that a grizzlicorn would be something right out of one of my favorite indie comics, Axe Cop.  And then I realized that a unigrizzly would also fit in pretty well in Bearmaggedon, another one of my favorite indie comics.  OMG!  I NEED TO ASK IF MY COWORKER READS AXE COP AND BEARMAGGEDON!!
