Comical Concept | Weekly Illustrations

Hold on to Your Nuts

I modified a concept for a client I work with, I went out on a limb to give them a off the wall t-shirt design. They went in a different direction, but I wanted to still show off the squirrel I made. I removed the branding, changed the colors and positioning. This one is also as not for sale as you can get, since it’s just to show of the illustration I did for some one else.

Tacos All the Way Down

I’ve seen one too many giant taco men eating smaller tacos. There’s a phrase that stems from cosmology, turtles all the way down, it’s about infinite regression. Where do you stop if you have a taco man eating a taco, why can’t the taco he’s eating be a taco man eating a taco… See where I’m going with this?

Cock and Balls

After having a conversation with my friend jeff about a ye olde english pub with a suggestive title and logo, this is exactly what comes of it. I think I’ve been playing too much GTA IV and going to gutter balls, Jeff too.

Onion Rings Bitches

I’m a little short on time again this week, so I’m making the companion piece to Fuck Yeah Corndogs. I feel like swearing and mentioning a fried drive in food holds up no matter what the food. Perhaps next I’ll shift to milkshakes or hamburgers.

Laundry Comparison

I know a man’s fashion sense and a woman’s are vastly different, I’m not forcing gender issues here. I’m forcing a fairness for who has to fold said laundry. I some times feel a little cheated when I have to fold 25 tiny little shirts in a load, and she some how does a load of my clothes. My clothes take up about 6x the space as hers and I wear 5 shirts and one pair of pants in a week, that’s about 3 minutes of folding clothes. I don’t even fold my underwear, and they are the same size as her shirts.

I just want equality when running the dryer is all.

Corrective Lenses

With an increase frequency of head aches and sliding close and closer to the computer screen(s), I (my wife) decided that I needed to go to the optometrist. I figured I might need some reading glasses or something but it wasn’t going to be that big of a deal. Turns out I highly underestimated the magnitude that your brain just sorts shit out and stitches together even the blurriest of vision to the best of it’s abilities. I’ve always had perfect vision, so I guess as my physical optics got worse my brain got better at correcting things. It’s been so long with this bad vision that wearing my glasses only feels right when reading text, and everything else… Is just too real some times.

Hipster Cookie

I know making fun of hipsters is so passe, however I live in a town full of them. I hear lots of talk about how such and such was much better that other thing. I heard some hipsters in Green Life the other day discussing whether or not the hot bar’s gone down hill since the corporate “nazi’s” at Whole Foods bought them out.

Everything Bagel

I can’t stand plain bagels, just too plain for me. But there’s a whole different set of problems you have to deal with if you go for a bagel crusted with other shit. God forbid you just vacuumed or swept the floor, that shit goes EVERYWHERE. I think it’s called an everything bagel because it gets poppy seeds, sesame seeds and garlic on EVERYTHING.

Denver Manning Face

I’ve been following this off season’s transactions much more closely than I have in the past. For me it’s be a culmination of how much I’ve gotten into the NFL and that there was’t an offseason last year because of the NFL lockout. I think last year was a real loss for a lot of teams because of big personal changes and no offseason to educate them, even the hit in all the free agency signing was a big deal last year. There were rookie quarterbacks like Cam Newton and Andy Dalton, who were working with skeleton playbooks because they only had like 5 weeks to learn them. That would be like me telling you to read the grapes of wrath tonight and have a 7 page book report to me by tomorrow.

Peyton Manning is one of those guys you can’t really hate, he’s a success and he’s had a good sense of humor and his agents always get him in the funniest commercials. He hasn’t committed any major crimes or been accused of sexual assault, plus he’s just a damn good QB and a hard worker. This season would have been sad without Peyton around in one form or another, and it saddens me that I’ve been sitting on this drawing since it was announced he’d be a bronco. It was a wild run, but now instead of Tebowing, we’ll be Manning Face’n this season.

Minstrel Cycle

My friend Dakota got this idea stuck in my head about 5 days ago. I laughed at his picture he posted to reddit and I wanted to do my own version. I haven’t been able to shake it and come up with a new idea, I kept coming back to it and even while I’m writing this and it’s uploading I’m getting groans from on chat from my friends. So let me just say, I’m so very sorry and I’m sorry to you women most of all.
