Donuts solve everything, don’t they? This one is another wordy one, but I think it has to be to work. I think the stereotyped descriptions and Nettika’s food choices are amusing enough by themselves anyway. I let myself off the hook for this one.
This is the first comic in a looooong time that I did start to finish in 1 sitting. Let me tell you, I had NO idea how much time I wasted by having the TV on as I drew up the strips. Listening to music instead nearly cut the total time by a third. I guess even though I think I’m pretty good at ignoring the TV, I must look up from time to time anyway, wasting precious minutes. Pretty cool, I hope to be able to continue to do this, have 2 more days free for side work. To whomever told me long ago to turn off the TV when I draw to get it done faster, you were right man! (sorry, I cannot remember for the life of me who that was)

Really like the linework in this one, great job D!
thanks! good to hear… I always think it’s way too busy!
Man does not live by bread alone! Every once in a while he’s got to have a donut.
mmm… donuts. I flipping dreamed about donuts last night, probably because of this comic.
Nice. I like how the floating resume creates a flow from one panel to the next.
Thank you! that was something I wasn’t sure if people would “get”… in that it’s not supposed to be literal within the scene.
Yeah…some people can have TV on in the background and work, but I can’t…I think as artists, we’re visual people. Even if I don’t want to watch, my eyes are drawn there, and that’s just distracting. Music is the only way. 🙂
Thank goodness for Pandora radio on my iphone. wonderful little app.
I think “eat a donut” is a good answer for almost anything that comes up in life.
My ritual is to have old wrestling from the 70’s-80’s playing in the background as I do the strip.
wow, wrestling. never would have thought of that. Baseball was working well for me. regular season baseball at least.
Yep, I have an extensive collection on dvd. I just pop them in and sit on my couch with my easel. I usually use ones that are heavy with promos/interviews. I’ve used music too. It takes me about 3-4 hours on average to finish my strip..and hey, it shows! 🙂 haha
There’s no need of feeling guilty, Z&F. You’re just trying to help. And it’s making me laugh hard. 🙂
Helping one guy find a job, and leave the rest of the workforce hungry and pissed off! Glad you’re enjoying the ride!
its usually the talking that scatters my brain
scattered can be fun, though!
Trying to catch up on your comic again. Keep up the good work.
hey, long time no…uh, comment! I need to catch back up with yours too. Thanks for dropping by ;0)
heh, knowing me i’d set it to broil
