off with their heads?

So a while ago I was drawing one of my comics and someone looked at my art work just as I finished drawing a female character's head but before I started drawing the character's body.

well they say that picture and got mad because they just thougth I was drawing sereved head and they started to cuss me out because of it. To put it mildly they basically called me a sick sexist psycho.

I told them that I was finished with the picture and they told me they didn't care as they kept yelling at me for a long time as I tried to explain.

after awhile I gave up and just finished my picture and then they say it and said..."oh"

no sorry, just "oh" and then they said..."why didn't you tell me you where still working on the picture?"

I replied that I did.

and agian they just said "oh"

Don't know why I'm sharing this story except that I thought it was interesting. Things like this is why I tend to not like people watch me while I draw.

I guess I can understand the anger a little the person didn't know what I was drawning and just went on what they say. But I would have thought it would have been easy to see that I was still drawing.

staying on the grind because it's better then many others

I'm sure you've had it. A day where you don't feel like working

depending on your job you've had it more often then not.

Today (well now yesterday) was one of those days for me.

It may surprise some but you still get that feeling sometimes when you are working for your self and doing something you love. Now being self employed it's easy to just not work and do something else because you have no boss that will fire you for slacking off but being self employed if you don't work you don't eat so the drive to plow trough is much stronger.

So a while ago when I was working on the second issue of Brer Warrior my brother Brian stoped by as I was inking a page of Brer Warrior on the computer (actually I was getting rid of some of the pencil markets because I was an idiot didn't open a new layer before I started inking it)

He looked at it and said "that's not going to sell...you know what you should do...something like the X-men."

I responded "I don't want to do something like the X-men."

"why not? you read the X-men..."

"I haven't read the X-men in years" I told him

"that don't make no sense you used to read it all the time"

It's clear that he assumes that because I still read comics that I have to read the same titles I liked as a kid.

"yeah and I stopped reading them around the mid 90's"

He still didn't either grasp this or didn't believe me.

"That don't make no since (something he says when it's clear he either doesn't understand something or just dismisses it) what the most popular comic...X-men...and what do people want want X-men! So when people are looking for another comic book they want something like the X-men, right? So after they read X-men they will go out and by your book" He said.

"yeah, if someone wants more X-men, Marvel has 3 X-men titles plus a bunch of X-men spin offs for them." I replied

"I didn't now that" he responded

"There where 2 x-men books and 4 or 5 spin-off books when we where kids"

"uh really didn't know that"


The thing that really got me about this was not only the fact that my little brother had no ideal what he is talking about but he said it with such confidence like he had some wise insight to guide me with.
