Just a Couple of Blobs: The Hand of God

The latest blob comic up and at 'em (commentary after the post):


Yay for the first all digital blob comic.  I did reuse the dungeon wall (obviously), but other than that, this was one hundred percent done digitally.  It took some getting used to, but I think I could speed up my process doing it this way.  Only problem is that I have to be on my computer at home to do so.

For the squidlings font, I found one I liked and then traced and made it my own.  This helped with the spacing and kept it different than the blobs, but allowed it to be in my handwriting.  I did a similar process with the hand of a god.  I took a photo of Marque's hand and a D20, traced it, inked it, and painted it.  This gave it the abnormally realistic (in comparison) spiritual vibe I was going for.

I had another punchline for this one I was really digging, but it got cut for time.  I'm feeling pretty keen to create something longer form with these guys.

You are coming into your own with form. And madness. And formulaic madness.

MY hand! That'smyhand. You are starting to make a habit of this. My hand also had a cameo in Carl Perkins.

Oh yeah also good job on the comic or whatever.
