Kobolds Ate My Brain
Here are some more drawings for Kobolds Ate My Baby Deluxx Edishun.

This first piece, I absolutely ADORE. The looks on all four faces just makes me SO happy that I'm a cartoonist.



This might be the main cover drawing, running under a giant logo on a "Ye Olde Fell Tome" kind of background texture...

And here are some other drawings, behind the cut.














Some of these ape drawings in the original books. I think either the Tabriz one or the pot one might look good in color, on the back page.

Matt, Igor and the lance marks the only Dork Tower cameo in the book

I'm totally psyched about this project!

Or can you tell...?

I SO want someone to make miniatures out of these guys!

EDIT SOMEONE suggested Allison Mack as a potential Gilly.

I must say, I am learning just how little I know about starlets these days.

But THIS montage makes a good case for her as Gilly...

I've gotta say - I love the kobolds! I'd love to have a sketch of one someday - planning on selling any anytime soon? Something like an ATC (artist trading card if you're unfamiliar with them.) Hooray for kobolds! They so devilishly cute!

I think there will be much Koboldy-goodness in the future!

Yes, sketches will definitely be available...

A) I wish I had Photoshop skill, then I'd present a boffo case for Jewel Staite as Gilly.

B) Hey, do our entries in the first post count for "Huzzah for Hollywood" or do we have to repost in the entry you officially announced the contest?

Awww, their pointy little ears! (And, of course, their pointy little teeth!) I've never thought of kobolds as cute before -- many's the time, during an RPG, that they have gnawed off various body parts -- but now my brain has dissolved in a glorious fire of "socutesocutesocute!!!!!!!!!!"

Allison Mack -- also cute, but in a less toothy way. :)

Squeee! Those are GREAT! I especially like the one with Matt and Igor and the bunch skewered on the lance. Too cute and so wrong all at the same time!

I just sent a copy of "New Boss" to a friend who's been tapped to be a con chair next summer. Hopefully, it'll give her a bit of perspective ...

Upsetting though I find the idea of evil little monsters eating my babies...

Those kobolds are awesome! I hope they make stuffed toys of them! I love that the ones skewered on the lance just look pissed, not actually dead or even in pain. Somehow, that's hilarious, a sort of "here we go again" feeling, like they get skewered on lances all the time and really hate it because it's just SO EMBARRASSING.

Hah!

Anyway, great work.

Love the last one - especially the surprised look on the cows face :^). You ever played the cheapass game "unexploded cow" - it kinda leaped to mind...

Not sure if you're into World of Warcraft, however if you are there's a PVPOnline vs Penny-Arcade rivalry going on Dark Iron Server, Penny-Arcade (Alliance) totally out numbers PVPonline (Horde) A Dork Tower Horde guild would be really cool (and War Hamsters would be a really cool name!) It's a rally intense battle too
