Wishy-washy guinea pigs

You have some serious talent. Do you just paint for fun?

Bekie · Fri Jun 05, 2009 11:31 am

Oh my goodness!

They are so cool! I really wish I could make pictures that looked as good as that.

QuincEmma: Yep! I sometimes draw things as gifts or when someone requests a drawing... but never for money [unfortunately! :p].

Thank you for the kind words, everybody! :}

Sorry for not having any drawings to update with... but do comic pages count? I've made a comic, here's the cover page/first page:

I haven't put this anywhere else since I didn't feel like it, but you guys seems to like my stuff... The title of the comic is "Love, Piper": the "love" is a "<" and a "3" since Piper goes on the computer a lot and learns things that way [so he would with smilies and the like, too]. His catch phrase is "LOL!" because I made these at 2 in the morning. XD

Anyway, it's about a guinea pig named Piper who 'saves hoomans by night... and does weird things by day!' He has two cage mates, Play-doh and Purple [who is literally purple]. They live in a C&C cage, harass their 'hooman slaves', taunt the family dog, and other things. [Piper usually tries to stop Play-doh and Purple from wrecking mayhem and usually makes things worse.]

The plot is nonexistent. It's just weird things that I think of at the moment I'm drawing them. I draw them as furry blobs since I'm lazy...
Any ideas for weird things the g-pigs could do would be cool. :P

I'll put up the only chapter I have if it's allowed... >.>

Here's the first two pages of chapter one, I'll put up the rest laster if, like I said, it's allowed.

Haha. I really love your drawings Mopthtalie! The cover page is adorable! I drew our first guinea pig we had ever had, Oreo, and it actually looked like him. I tried to do that again and it didn't work out like I had planned it to! If it is allowed, I would love to see your whole story!! Very cute!

Mophtalie · Mon Jul 06, 2009 2:09 am

^Thanks, miniWeaver! If you're satisfied with your drawing of Oreo, you should put it up.

miniWeaver · Mon Jul 06, 2009 9:18 pm

Mophtalie, I would post my picture, but I made it in Kindergarden and don't know what I did with it since then....

I love your story!!!! Very funny and cute!!!!!!! I like it.

And I can imagine those piggies are just plain evil!! They want their veggies! heehee.

Lynx · Wed Jul 08, 2009 5:16 pm

You're pics are super, Mophtalie! I like the realistic ones and the sketchy guys. The LOL pig is adorable.

Mophtalie · Wed Jul 22, 2009 5:24 pm

@MiniWeaver: Oh, haha. I still have drawings from when I was two... it horrifies myself to look at them... XD And thank you! They are evil, mwahaha.
@Lynx: Thank you!

I don't have any new comic pages, but here's something I drew a little while ago [click for full size]:

Lynx · Thu Jul 23, 2009 8:38 am

Aw, that is so sweet!

knhappyface · Sat Jul 25, 2009 5:34 pm

The comic is so cute!! It captures the pigs' personalities so well.

Topaz · Sat Aug 15, 2009 1:13 pm

I love it! You certainly do have talent!

My son and I always joke that our four guinea pig girls probably hit the fridge and have parties at night and while we're not home. I think that concept would work great for your comic strip. We always laugh picturing them all heading single file to the fridge to raid it.

Lynx · Sun Aug 16, 2009 10:57 pm

I like that concept.

THAT is what the G-Force pigs should have been doing! Scouting out good food!

Topaz · Mon Aug 17, 2009 5:33 am

Well it IS one of their most favorite things to do! Eating I mean, not raiding the fridge.

knhappyface · Thu Aug 20, 2009 8:25 pm

Impatiently waiting for the next page!

Lynx · Wed Aug 26, 2009 8:39 am

Me too! Need more art!

Mophtalie · Tue Oct 06, 2009 12:01 am

Sorry I've been absent, school has taken a lot out of me. :(

Thanks for the compliments and I really like your idea Topaz! Next time I can get to work on the comic, I'll use your idea.

I did this tonight, looking at a picture of Gracie from the GL forums. I obviously changed a few things, but she is a little recognizable... [I think you all know who I'm talking about.]

Lynx · Tue Oct 06, 2009 8:48 pm

Gracie is such a sweetie! I think you did a good job with her. She is one very unique guinea pig!
