STATUSTRATIONS - 14/07/09
Hello all and welcome to a brand new section of the site. I am completely coining and copyrighting the word Statustration and the idea of it. If I see anyone else doing this, I will scoop out their knee-caps with a soup spoon. It is something I have been working on for quite a while now and I feel like I've finally got it moving in a good direction. I have been mulling over the style of the illustrations and I think I finally have something I am happy with. OK, the branding really needs a bit of work, but all in due course.
What is STATUSTRATIONS? It is a little piece of twisted fun where I raid social networking sites (currently only the people I know) of their status updates and/or comments on the world and illustrate it. In the process I twist the interpretation a little. The first example has my good friend Cory out of her head, but back to her old bed (in this case the floor caked in codeine). The second example has my good friend Jillian being tortured by a hairy turnip. Her dog is called Turnip and was the one being a nuisance. Now it all makes some sort of sense.
The main comic will continue and I am hoping to make Statustration a weekly event. Status' change that much that you will find some of these updates occurred many, many weeks ago. Fear not though, if I know you an illustration of you being sodomised while snorting cocaine and fighting imaginary elephants in world war attire will no doubt appear soon if I can twist your words to such an extent.
In the meantime enjoy the scribblings people and do leave me feedback. New images will be posted on the Statustrations page, go check it out. I will add a little note on the home page though to inform people of new scibblings. There will be a new Toasterific comic soon. Live long and prosper or die tomorrow and fail miserably. Much love readers. J
