Oh yeah, that's true! Zoidberg227, you got one I didn't even get! *bangs head to the wall* As said before, I was thinking about the bracelet Edit: My third TOTPD!

Thank you Zoidberg227! I will draw some more reference-art, I have a few ideas in the back of my head... In the meantime: Anyone like childish, gassy humor? Well, I do. It depends, though... I was bored this afternoon, so I spent the night drawing this little comic. What do you think? Boring? Funny? No strong feelings whatsoever? In any case; I'd love some feedback!

That's adorable, and I always commend for laziness (like using the same figures in every panel and just changing the eys and mouths ). I'm gonna have to watch out for you from now on... (mumbles about people more talented than me)

Originally posted by becky: And, yes, I've thought about submitting my stuff to TLZ. But who should I submit it to? There are 6 different people behind the site Try Graham or Teral, they seem to post the most updates. Originally posted by Zoidberg227: There were four production seasons altogether, and I highly recommend you pick up the DVDs for all of them.
I got fed up waiting for season 5 on channel 4, so I now watch an episode a week on the dvd, three more months of new futurama episodes and spoiler-dodging for me! The comic raised a smile, like ooy said, you should put it on TLZ's comic page, they like one-page comics simply because they are finished (Theres a load of half-finished ones on the site).

Thank you everybody for your nice feedback! I'm so excited now, because someone (beside my closest friends) actually laughed! People usually dismiss my sense of humor as... Well, disgusting, weird, nasty etc... Leelaholic: Yeah, now that you mention it I notice that Leela does look a little skinny... There’s nothing to do about it now, though, but thank you for telling me about it. Shaucker: Well, I'm a lazy person I was going more for expressions and dialogue in the comic, so I didn't worry about using almost the same poses every frame. Futuramafreak: Thanks! Ooy: Thank you! I will! Zoidberg227: You want my comic as a wallpaper? I'm very flattered! Here you go: Zmithy: Thanks for helping me out with who I should e-mail, and for the smile my comic put on your face

Thank you! Heh, Zoidy being a rock star, I'd like to read that one! Where did you find it? But, anyway, Fry, Leela and Bender starting a band sounds great! Maybe Zoidberg can be a groupie or something, who wants to be in the band with them? But then he's rejected all the time because he's not cool enough? I think it would fit his character Just an idea, though, I won’t interfere with your writing!

Sorry for double-posting, but I figured this needed a little bump because I have 2 new images ready! Back to the Future, anyone? This one is a little sketch I drew after watching my favorite movie last night. The name is kind of lame, but I couldn't think of anything better Just thought I'd post it.. This is my first successful drawing of Amy. She and Leela are fighting over someone. Guess who (I love making people guess)

Thank you so much for your nice responses, Jicannon, Benderfan, Otis P Jivefunk, M. Proctor and Zoidberg227! You’ve made my day! About the person Leela and Amy are fighting over: Zoidberg227, you got it! Well, technically Benderfan got it (congrats!), but you got the references! I decided to put the letter Fry wrote in Leela’s hand to sort of prove that this was earlier in the series, when Amy wasn't dating Kif. So then there'd be a reason for Amy and Leela to fight over Fry, and maybe a reason for the letter to get flushed down the tubes. But I really like the fact that you got the letter-reference, because I doubted anyone would. You don’t see very much of the letter in “Leela’s Homeworld”.

Yet another bump and double post... Sorry!Last week was fall-break, so when I didn't have to go to school I just stayed at home and drew a lot... I haven't had so much time now, though, when school started again, but I finally drew something : And here's a colored version. What do you think?

I was actually in the middle of writing a post a few hours ago, when a friend of mine rang the doorbell. So I couldn't reply until now. Sorry! Your feedback really means a lot to me! Jicannon: You did, huh? :P Thanks for the compliment, though! ProZac: Thank you! Same to you Dr. Jerkbird: I'm the next Daniela? That's so nice of you to say! My inspiration usually comes at night when I'm trying to sleep. I just try really hard to find ideas of what I might draw, and every now and then I get some. What I do is I think of an episode, and then I sort of skim through it in my mind. Little details inspire me to draw something that's linked to those. But other times the ideas just come out of nowhere Anyway, if you want to draw the characters, you should trace some framegrabs, either digitally or printed-out versions. Then you get the basics of the characters anatomy etc. and you'll be able to draw them. All you need is a little patience Good luck to you, by the way! Maybe I'll post the pictures I traced (and actually kept) back in July and August for you. DogDoo8: Thanks, I like inspiring people! M. Proctor: Thank you! I appreciate your comment about my coloring! Y_L_B: Cool, you like Back to the Future as well! I'm flattered that Marty McFry is your new background! Benderfan: Thanks! I’m really looking forward to read your fic Zed 85: Thank you! Just don’t be depressed... Please? I appreciate your responses, everybody. It’s very inspirational and it’s what keeps me going!

I always thought 'roswell that ends well' was a sick version of back to the future, where Marty and his mother- , erm, maybe I shouldn't take this sentence any further . Anyway, cool pic becky!, my favourite one so far. I like the shading style in the pencil sketches, especially the Leela and Amy one, normally with linear shading it looks too scratchy, but yours seems to follow the curves of the characters really well. Have you always drawn things in that style or was it something you came up with for futurama? Keep the good stuff coming - TLZ has you ranked at second place at the moment! That may change (I'm not sure how these ranking things work out), but its a damn impressive opening. Also, don't let school stop you drawing, you do have art classes don't you?

I love your coloring style...none of that "fill with color" garbage for you! The Leela drawing is lovely, but the way she's twisted looks a bit wonky to me. You have fall break? Your school system makes me vomit in jealously.

Dr.Jerkbird: You're welcome! ooy: Thanks! And Futurama is not the only thing I think of at night... (those late, late nights...) Nurdbot: Thank you! Zmithy: Yeah, I love RTEW. A reference to my favorite movie with a dirty ending is always great. But I agree with you on the sick BTTF-version. It's still funny, though! And I'm glad you liked the picture! And about my coloring: Well, I've colored stuff like that before, but when I started doing Futurama art I just developed my shading a little more. Nah, school won't stop my drawing. I’m supposed to study for a test I have tomorrow, but instead I'm sketching out an idea for a one-page comic with the keywords “Zoidberg” and “Halloween”. Shaucker: Thank you! And nope, no paint buckets on my pencil drawings! Leela probably looks a little twisted in that picture, but it made sense in my mind (which has that brain thing, by the way...)
