September’s series of musical selections is officially over! It’s October! Or should I say . . . Inktober?

Do you remember what happened the last time I celebrated Inktober? No? Well, you’re not going to like it. You’re certainly not go to like this one. You see, a friend posted to Facebook a list of Inktober assignments, and being the smartass I am, I’ve taken on (synonym: stolen) those assignments despite my . . . “modest” drawing skills. Look, mine will be funnier, okay? I’d link to his (which are going to be much better), but he protects his tweets. You’ll have to settle for mine.

He’s drawing for a charity by offering his drawings for sale, the proceeds for which go to the Stillbrave Childhood Cancer Foundation. Noble, but my choice of charity is the JDRF. Unfortunately, no one will buy my work, so until their link breaks, you can directly donate here. Or you can donate to Stillbrave. I won’t get angry. Here are the assignments:

I don’t know all of these things.

Day 27: Scooby Doo Gang

Holy shit! I did it!

This is definitely my best work. Tune in tomorrow when reality sets back in.

Day 26: Space Ghost

Does anyone even know who Space Ghost is? I can assure you that no one did back in 2007 (see below).

I have no idea what happened to his feet. Or his legs. Or his arms. Or his hands. Actually, I do know what happened. I drew it. But at least today you get something far better.

Or far worse, depending on your perspective. This is from 2007, and I still have the costume (though not the underwear). I think I’d fit in it just as well today.

Great movie. In the City by Joe Walsh is also great.

He’s got a huge head.

I mentioned the Beastie Boys last month. That was unintentional foreshadowing.

It doesn’t even look like them. Would you know who these guys were if you didn’t know?

Day 23: Pulp Fiction

There’s a lot wrong with all my drawings, but this one puts almost all of it together. Apparently, Sam Jackson had major surgery removing the right side of his torso. You can see a less pronounced issue with Vinny. He’s a lot taller than Travolta for some reason. Both of these come from the fact that I don’t get size right. I draw a line intending it to be one size, but the result is inconsistent with what appears in the rest of the drawing. I also couldn’t handle the parallax with respect to the two guns, so they look like they’re shooting targets on different sides of the room.

All that said, I think Vinny’s tie is okay.

Day 22: Hulk Hogan

I’ve long since abandoned pro wrestling. It’s not my thing anymore. But as a child, in high school (1982-1986), and again in law school (1996-2000), I was an avid fan. I was around for most of Hogan’s biggest accomplishments.

Yet another drawing making the subject look like a Talosian. The image also looks like “Hogan” is wearing a shirt. He’s not. Those are wristbands around his wrists, and I merged his neckline with the chain he’s wearing.

Day 21: The Big Lebowski

This movie came out in 1998 while I was still in law school, so no, I didn’t see it in the theater back then. I saw it via Netflix on May 3, 2015 (Facebook never forgets), and it instantly became one of my favorites. On January 21, 2020, I got to see it in the theater with a couple of friends (again, Facebook). As with Life of Brian, I’ll watch this movie every time I have a couple hours to kill and think to put it on. I have two favorite scenes: 1) him crashing his car within seconds of putting it in drive; and 2) his switch between doing a spit take after finding out Maude is pregnant to moments later casually mentioning that he was going to be a father soon as if there was nothing worrisome about it.

Trivia: The original feminine form of dude was dudine (I hate using the Merriam-Webster dictionary). Dudette is relatively new (circa 1991). Dude has since became gender-non-specific. I still use dudine to sound smart. I don’t think it’s working.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me when it comes to drawing hands. Or shoulders. Or anything.

Day 19: Hocus Pocus

Yet another movie from my childhood or young adulthood that I’ve never seen, but everyone else seems to have. It appears they’ve vetted it for me and saved me the misery of watching it. On the other hand, it’s got a sequel last month almost 30 years later. Straight to streaming!

They don’t look nearly as funny as the original image does.

Day 18: Thanos

As I said on Day 16, only Star Trek ranks higher for me as a film or TV intellectual property. I thought this one would be relatively easy.

Good gravy, I suck. At least they’d have a hard time suing me for copyright violation.
