Tales of humour, whimsy and courgettes
Nobbled the missus dip pens while I wait for my mine to arrive. Boy howdy, they’re going to take some getting used too.
There’s no lizard pun to accompany this beast today. I felt the need to scale back.

Yeah, I know, another deer. Not a deerhound this time, but the buck still stops with me.
I’ve been fawning over scribbled antlers.
You think you have a bad doe pun? Hold my deer.
Deer testicles are so cheap because they’re under a buck.
Oh deer lord, someone stop me!

Going with some Godzilla vibes today.
Ink’s nearly run out of all my Faber-Castells. *Sniff* They are bloody expensive and I am conscious of how much plastic I could be saving by moving onto a dip pen. I’m currently eyeing up the Speedball sketching set and Kuratake ink. I’ve tried the missus Speedballs. They are easy to use and forgiving. That’s something I need as I am a scruffy doodler.

A triple tonight. So the first chunky lady, obviously, I’m happy with. Different shapes. Not entirely furry. That’s what I was after.
I cannot stand the look of those blade-headed kaiju. They look daft. Had a bash at one, trying different things, and I just wasn’t into it. Boy, does it show. Part of the learning process or something I guess.
I simply just drew this lady too small and I think my scanner is giving up the ghost. She’s about 1.7 inch square. Hence the thicker lines. My HP 7520 is getting on. It used to deal with this size, no problem. The bottom parts blurry as feck. Bah. Another thing on the shopping list.

Fur appears to be my new comfort zone. Doesn’t help that all of my finest fine liners ran out of ink at the same time. Doh. Note to self. Give tomorrows kaiju less fur and buy myself some FW inks, a dip pen and a nib pack.

Nearly half-way through Kaijune, and I’m making my way into new sets of stories without my beloved Posca pens.
I seem to have moved onto Faber-Castell Pitt Artist pens for everything. Now that’s an expensive transition! I need to investigate FW inks and dip pens. It would be a lot cheaper and give me more colour options. Also, the way my missus raves about them, I think the FW stands for ‘fecking wonderful.’

It’s Deerhound! She’s featured a few times in the Fears stories. I love the idea of a giant Scottish-deerhound with antlers walking across the landscape.
I’m adamant once I’m earning enough money we’re getting a Scottish deerhound. They’re lovely dogs. Gentle giants with pokey faces.
This, of course, has my missus in tears of laughter. I’ve spent the last 15 years of my life being kicked out of bed by Jack Russell Terriers. But that’s unfair. Anyone who’s owned a terrier can attest, the little sods can stretch in bed to in-human sizes. Well, in-dog sizes? Whatever. They can take up more space in bed than a horse when they want too.
As I finish typing this, Lily, a Jack Russell cross, just shoved me off my chair. OK, maybe the missus has a point…
Bonus dog-pictures.
Shout out to Kathy of Kathy of London for new patronage this morning. You’ll find photography, poetry and pecking birds on her blog, so if you fancy any of the above, give her a visit. Cheers, Kat!

Two kaiju today. I spent a lot of yesterday on buses. Hurrah social media and blog reading apps.
I had a cross-eyed geezer sat next to me on the way home. He told me he was training to be a bus driver. I let him know I wouldn’t stand in his way.

A twelve-legged spider, creeping through the city. Arachnophobiacs, I am sorry.
My missus recently asked me to take a spider out instead of killing it. So I took him to a bar. Had a few drinks. Seemed like a nice guy. He’s training to be a web developer.

Here we have a sea monster kaiju with 80’s poofy hair and punk-pink stripes. I have no idea where I was going with this beast.
I didn’t intend to complete Kaijune. I think I started it as a distraction while lining up the next lot of usual daily-tales. But I’m digging the larger than usual fearful monsters. Doodles on lo-fi photos work quite well, I think.
