I had been considering going into tattooing for a living. Later on, I discovered that I liked drawing on paper better than stabbing into skin, although it was a close race. So, I’ve kept on with the whole cartoons/animations/comics/illustrations/comedy/libretto kinda career, it’s still fun to design tattoo flash. Here are the one’s I’ve come up with so far. We’ve got the reverse mermaid, pretty girls, pug dogs, and chow. The ush.
If any of these appeal to you, dear reader, please, ink it up. You may email me at carolynmain@gmail.com, and I can send you the art work in line and color layers. I only ask for a photo to remember your skin by, once it is permanently permeated from perforations.

The Pizza one is a memorandum for a kitty. My gal pal actually got that stabbed into her, for keeps. I’ll see if I can fish out a photo of that one day.

I fell in love with The Mighty Boosh. They make this new kind of funny. They made me want to be the moon. So I was for a while. Sorry to all the actual British people if you hate my accent… but I’m not actually sorry though.

This is another time I was the moon.

So, I am an alumni of the illustrious Renegade Animation Studios, which has (had?) an office here in Portland. While I was doing top secret video game animation, most of our office was working on the recently debuted MR Men Show. I got to see the weekly shots come out, parceled gently out over the real time it takes to animate. I say that the show is absolutely adorable. Now, I know you may think that they bribed me with their bagels, cream cheese, and coffees, but, no I am not so easily bought. Bagels only rent me. I was excited to see how strong and ridiculous each character is, and how the whole show is premised on every mr man and little miss just plain being ill suited for their job. None of them will ever get along, for a Mr Anal Retention can never be comfortable around a Mr Crusty Hippy. That doesn’t stop them from going on road trips to the beach, however.

The charecters tend to either have a regional accent, or be based off an old Hollwood type. I especially fell for Mr. Scatterbrain, who’s based off Ed Wynn, the old man floating around his tea party in Mary Poppins. He brings the party.

Now, there’s some controversy surrounding the Mister Rude character. Who is unabashedly FRENCH. I am in support of a big, publicity inducing fight! According to a source at the French Embassy in London ” this kind of humor won’t go any distance toward easing a centuries-old rivalry between the two nations”. Well, maybe not. But with me, the proof is always in the pudding. So it matters if it’s funny.

Bare in mind that, I , in fact, have French heritage. That, and a bit o the Irish is how I maintain my honky white visage. So in celebration for Cartoony Racial Stereotypes that I personally represent in my daily duties, I’ve drawn a stunning portrait of Mr Rude, and a New Character I’d like to one day introduce into the men cannon. I’ll let you know when I see a contract.

Here’s Mr Rude, being just a little bit ruder.

And here’s the character I propose, a new man, named Mr Tipsy. He has a heavy brogue.

What the hell was this old arcade game called? This was a question I had on my mind for a long time. So when the Onion’s AV club started encouraging hapless schmucks like me to recall our collectively misspent youth I had a drawing I’d done from memory ready to send in. Here, the AV club nicely answered my inquest, which, yes, is and was extremely important. You’ll have to scroll down the page a little after you link.

This is a crazy time. I work hard, I play hard, I draw hard. I dominate the mike with my mad free style in the 2nd half of this, accompanied by the lovely Lilli Carre. I am mean to Jeremy Tinder. This is how you fight.
