Hello, Knucklehead!
Hope you're well. It's now officially Spring (here in the northern hemisphere, at least). Time to refresh and renew. Time to toss out old habits and try new things. Which brings us to this week's comic…

NEW COMIC
Starting A New Hobby - Part 1
|
|
|
|
|
|
This comic is brought to you by the fact that I've been "teaching myself animation" for the last ten years and have yet to produce a single cartoon. Maybe my hobby is just learning about how to make cartoons — not actually making them? Is that weird?

INSPIRATIONAL ARTIST OF THE WEEK
Javier Burgos
|
|
Javier Burgos is a character designer and principal artist at Rovio Entertainment (makers of Angry Birds). He doesn't post to Instagram that often. So when he does, I take notice. He posted the image above a few days go. According to the hashtags, it's is a comic panel. A comic panel! One single panel of (what I assume is) a larger work — which I now want to read immediately. So cinematic.

(Please don't tell me this is just a screen grab from a cartoon I haven't seen.)

OLD BUZZFEED VIDEO I MADE
The $100 Closed Eye Bullseye Challenge
|
|
Keeping with last week's theme of my Dumb Little Challenges videos, here's the second one: The $100 Closed Eye Bullseye Challenge. I really like this one, though it performed the worst of the three pilots. The challenge was fun. The contestants were saucy. And the ending was something we couldn't have scripted if we tried.
|
|
Just a reminder that we're bringing back these challenges on a brand-new TikTok channel called The Blammo Network. Me and my funny friends will be hosting all-new dumb little challenges LIVE every Thursday at 4pm EST / 1pm PST. Join us!

Have a rich and full-flavored week, Knucklehead.
