I really do enjoy making these comic doodles about my life. It's even more fun when I get to draw a monster.

I spent fifty bucks on the game confident that it was be just as awesome as the previous Madden games I've played. There was only one catch. On the Wii version you have to wave your arms like an idiot to do anything. You can't use the classic controller at all. On top of that the game has been Wiied down. To make it more accessible. Games like this should be accessible to everyone, but unfortunately EA ignored the serious gamer in this version.



The highlight of the Con for me was seeing Joe Bluhm work. I first was introduced to Joe Bluhm online. He's a illustrator and caricature artist out of the New York city area. I think I found out about him by listening to Stephen Silver's podcasts. His youtube videos are great and super educational. I bought his book Sketch Infectus and watched him do caricatures of con attendees. He worked in pen and colored pencil sticks. As he worked I noticed that he always did a quick gesture drawing on a separate piece of paper before starting in with the ink pens. The gesture drawings were really amazing and I was interested in what he was going to do with them. When I asked him he said he was planing to throw them away so I asked him if I could have them. He seemed to be a little puzzled as to why I would want them but gave them to me anyways. SCORE!
