Description A few sketches of questionable quality from October. I've been way too busy lately, but I've tried to make time for a little sketching here and there.

-Emile and Paolo tend to scream at each other instead of solving problems civilly, since they're both stupid jerks who can't stand to lose. Since they live together, I suppose these fights could be termed 'domestic disputes', although this label is misleadingly suggestive.

-Emile likes to pretend that he doesn't know shit about art, and this drives Paolo up a wall. How can he possibly steal stuff that he doesn't appreciate? Because he loves money.

-Emile's house and furniture were designed with teeny little people in mind, and Paolo is ridiculously tall and lanky. It is not unusual for chairs to be broken and foreheads to be bashed into doorframes.

-Claire the cat was skinny and pitiful when Paolo and Emile picked her up off the streets, but now she's a spoiled fatty. She looks like she's some sort of cornish rex mix, and since they found her in a rather nice part of town, it's likely that she's the bastard offspring of an expensive pet and some horrid smelly cur from the hood.

-Paolo wishes that Emile would cover up his unsightly gaping eyesocket, but Emile continually refuses. He thinks that eyepathces look stupid, and is convinced that a scarf would look girly. For someone who is frequently mistaken for a twelve-year-old, he's kind of vain.

WOAH ANOTHER COMMENT WHAT IS THIS BLASPHEMY

Is it just me or do Paolo's horns tend to bend at the ends sometimes, but not always?
I smell inconsistency :o

haha, where've you been dude? My style is horrfyingly inconsistent. I wish this were not the case, but I can never seem to draw something the same way twice.

I love the cat. It's weird how it's so simple but I thought when I saw it, Huh, that looks like a Rex.
So awesome.
Gaaaah, I miss your cool stuff!

You do wonderful cats. Why doesn't Emile just get a glass eye so he won't get tormented by Paolo with his empty socket pranks?

...the word-geek in my is hopping up and down right now so I have to let it out; cur refers specifically to dogs. You might want moggy, or possibly if it was an old bitchy sorta cat: grimalkin.

Ok... I shut up now.


...I wonder what would happen if you filled Emile's eyesocket with custard while he was asleep, then woke him up loudly..

Jesus, what's wrong with you people? Custard? That's just messed up. <: c

A golfball with a dot drawn on it would be much more convincing :o

Paolo's besotted smile as he plays with the cat just makes me several kinds of happy. It also makes me wish I wasn't allergic to cats.

In the vein of torturing Emile about his missing eye, has anyone tried to put stuff in his socket while he's asleep/otherwise incapacitated? Example: Gwen doing a little flower arrangement in there after he drinks himself to the point of passing out.

I still find it interesting what you call 'sketches'.

I wonder if Emile occasionally has things fall/fly into that gaping socket.

Grim-Amentia In reply to Sheana [2008-11-05 03:25:39 +0000 UTC]

Like if a spider crawled into it while he was asleep?

I'm sure this has happened at least once.

Hahaha, exactly.

A really earnest exploratory bug or arachnid could navigate passages all the way to the brain.

Paolo is doing a fine job of expressing a thought I had often during any and all art history classes I've taken. XD
