Motorcycle is re-assembled

Need to install pipes. Also needs carbs balanced, battery and oil change. AND a severe cleaning!

This would've been Wednesday's lunch sack. Unfortunately, it took too long to draw AND I had to run a few errands @ 10:00 last night! To top that off, the computer and printer decided to get into a silent argument with each other and nothing I said seemed to help. Hopefully they will forgive each other before I get home! The pic above was a test print that was done while their relationship was on better terms.

Caitlin's Tuesday Lunch Sack

Caitlin saw the digitally enhanced lunch sack for Hailey and she guilted me into making one for her. I quickly sketched it up. It took about an hour from start to print. She is going to be life guarding for a summer job this year @ Splash Kingdom in Canton. That's where I got the idea for the image.

Hailey's Tuesday Lunch Sack

Hailey's sacks have recurring characters. Mr. P. Beinjay and Mr. Walter Bawdle. In this scene, she is playing poker with her food. I sketched this, scanned it to the computer and used Inkscape for the linework and painting.

1st try thru printer

I decided to try creating something digitally and printing directly to the lunch sack. It worked great (after a few attempts with the bag facing the wrong way).
