Wolfie Warm Ups!

Not to be confused with a sweat suit.  Or maybe you thought of THIS warm up:



But what I'm really talking about are doodles, preliminary sketches, and stuff I do when I need a break so that I don't break something.  Here, for example, is a quick page in tribute to one of my cartoonist heroes, Marie Severin! 



Here are some "life sketches" of spankable girls:

You remember the fairy being dragged off by the leprechaun?  
 
They were the "secondary" couple in a St Pat's WolfieToon at "Discipline And Desire."  Here's the first sketch, and there is a quality I like.



Another D&D cartoon featured the One-Eyed, One-Horned Flying Purple People Spanker.  Here are the Purple People Spanker Preliminaries:



And here is the final version;  you may have seen this one at Devlin O'Neill's Web Log (And Poppy's, Too!)

  6. Dear Dave, What a variety, wow, as always checking in on your blog makes my day, thanks for the laughs, and being a really big sci-fi fan the spanking aliens are the best, thank you, your friend BOB

  7. I'm always interested in getting a peek inside an artist's sketchbook, and yours certainly did not disappoint. I also caught the literary allusion to "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream" you sly dog - er, I mean wolf!

  8. Appreciate it, Bob! Any time I can cause chucklage, it counts as a great day! I think all of us raised up with the Space Race will always have a fondness for what the pretentious are now calling "speculative fiction!" :-D

    Hi, Web-Ed!

    I'll have to get back over to CSR and other neglected forums; Phil says he's getting quite a web-education there about the funnybook biz and its history! :-D

    Glad you noticed that little quip! It actually was an allusion to an allusion, stolen from John Byrne's parody for one of his "She-Hulk" stories!

    And to dispell the "Huh?!" factor for everyone else, I recommend the harrowing and timely short story W.E mentioned, Harlan Ellison's "I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream." Read it with the lights on.

    Well, I guess you would hve to have SOME light on, eh?

  9. Hey DW, I always figured you for a doodler. Starting early as a hormone infused adolescent I bet you doodled in your bedroom, doodled in every other room in the house when your parents weren't around, even doodled in school. You were a masterdoodler and doodled until your hand cramped. And I bet you drew a lot also. ;)

    Seriously, no really, seriously, you are an amazingly talented artist whose humor matches your drawing ability, and that puts you in unique company. I find myself envious - in a good comradely way - and wish I had ⅛ of 1 percent of your drawing ability. I can't even draw stickmen. Makes it very hard to play Hangman. :(

    Also, loved your Cinco de Mayo Wolfietoon on the D&D site. More of your outstanding work.

    Finally, sorry about my absence as of late, Dave. Just everyday life taking up too much of my time.

  10. I love the idea of a woman in your life just doing her thing and getting sketched in those provocative poses- perfect.
    I also love the idea that it is what you see- your world is kind of cute, isn't it?

    Thank you, Poppy! Yes, all of you make the WolfieWorld scenery the best there is!

    Your grins are worth a million, Raven, merci beaucoup!!

  15. Hi Wolfy, I really like your sketches, life sketches of girls, they are very good. You seem to have a lot of experience to be able to remember all those details, or did you lure some unsuspecting girl with that bit toothy grin?
