2013 Returning Challenger: Robert McKeone

A photo of me, Robert McKeone

Hello!

I participated in this challenge, for the first time, back in 2011.  I’m proud to say I was successful (barely) in doing so!  I was looking forward to trying again in 2012, but my computer started giving me a LOT of grief and it just wasn’t really possible to use it to deliver the quality I wanted to present.  BUT, got a new computer… and everything is peachy!  So here I go again!

When I’m not participating in this challenge, I occasionally run a sporadically updating webcomic, called appropriately enough, “Waste of Time“.  When I’m ignoring that, I’m slightly more frequently posting to my art blog, “Side Effects May Include Drawsiness“.  When I’m not being artsy, I’m wasting away my years at a dead-end job in a national retail chain known for the ever increasing need to “save you 5%”.

#30 – The Tired Artist… (Semi-Autobiographical)

| November 30, 2011 | 0 Comments

November was a tough month, surving the holiday shoppers at his day job in retail, celebrating his 30th birthday, Thanksgiving, the hell that is Black Friday, and participating in a month long artistic challenge… the tired artist, takes a much deserved nap.

#27 – Deforester

| November 28, 2011 | 0 Comments

In the Canadian wilderness… once every million years or so… the Deforester is unleashed from the netherealm, and it eats it’s way though the woods, devouring the trees.  Eventually there won’t be any trees left to produce oxygen, and the creature will die.  But will the human race survive?

Dixon Ticonderoga, a normal pencil by day, becomes the crime fighting vigilante NO. 2 at night… protecting the streets from the evil Sharpener with his paper-mate, Pearl, the Pink Wonder!

#24 – Flaming Turkey

| November 24, 2011 | 0 Comments

Sometimes inbred rednecks will eat a parrot at Thanksgiving instead of a Turkey.  Sometimes they’ll deep fry the parrot.  And sometimes, just sometimes… that parrot will rise from the ashes and take revenge!

#23 – Fluffy

Just cuz a master warlock names their pet dragon, “Fluffy”.  Doesn’t mean you should underestimate them…

#22 – Not-Sure-Of-Himself-Man

He’s got the costume, he’s got the city to protect… All that remains… is confidence.  Which he lacks… in abundance…

#21 – Steve the Coal Elf

| November 22, 2011 | 0 Comments

Y’know, how when your parents would tell you that if you were a naughty boy or girl, you would get coal in your stocking?  Well, it’s true.  And the elf in charge of selecting your coal… is Steve.

#16 – Loch THIS!

| November 17, 2011 | 0 Comments

You ever wonder why only a handful of people have “seen” Nessy?  It’s cuz Nessy doesn’t want to be seen, she’s a secret operative of the Scottish government.  What’s worse than a “mythological creature” that many claim doesn’t exist…. a “mythological creature” that many claim that doesn’t exist… with a LAZER BEAM ATTACHED TO IT’S HEAD!

Ivan Schlingstein was a scientist and Military Tactician for the Glockenstanian government.  Until he was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer that was slowly eating away at his body…  He learned he could save the thing that was most important to him… his brain.  But at what a price…

#8 – Watchers

| November 9, 2011 | 0 Comments

You ever get the feeling that you were being watched?  Well, you probably were.  That’s what the Watchers do.  They watch you.  But why?  And for what greater purpose?

#7 – Tiffany

| November 8, 2011 | 1 Comment

Tiffany didn’t have all the breaks in life.  She came from a single parent home, was always wearing hand-me-downs, and shopping at thrift stores.  Didn’t get to go her senior prom, or have a full and normal life.  But now she’s putting her past behind her, and working her way through law school.

#6 – Killjoy

| November 7, 2011 | 1 Comment

Killjoy is one sick puppy.  He hangs out in the playgrounds and public parks at night, waiting for fornicating teens to enter the park… and then… he strikes…  the sick smile face is all his victims see before feeling the cut of the blade on his chainsaw…

#5 – Tigraax

| November 6, 2011 | 0 Comments

In the desolate future wastelands… humans no longer exists after their wars for land, power and wealth… in the nuclear and biochemical fallout of mankind’s greed, the species went extinct.  New species began to populate the previously uninhabitable lands of Earth.  One such species is the Tigraax.  Feline like in nature, but with a hard green skin, tough as rock and a tail similar to that of a scorpion, it used to kill the species prey.  The Tigraax roam Earth’s lands… but they are not the only things roaming…

#3 – Chiang

| November 4, 2011 | 0 Comments

 

Chiang was once a fierce assassin for the Zhan Liu, a mystic tribe of assassins long since forgotten in the scrolls of time.   Tapping into the dark arts of the mystics, he can summon mystic powers unknown to many.  He’s cold and methodical, and acts purely on instinct taught by his masters.  A mercenary for hire, but more than that, he hopes to find the ones responsible for wiping out the Zhan Liu.

#2 – Braaains

| November 3, 2011 | 0 Comments

Connor McAdams was just an ordinary man in his first life, with a job and student loan payments.  Living paycheck to paycheck, even found a girl he thought he could settle down with and raise some kids.  That was until she was bitten…  and turned into a zombie.  Like so many other people before the outbreak, Connor didn’t know what was happening, and didn’t know what was wrong with his love,  so he too became one of the horde as the zombie apocalypse continued to rise.

One day, while scrounging for some fresh meat, Connor stumbled across a research institute.  There wasn’t much left for pickings, but he could hear that something was still alive, and it made him hungry.  The rocket scientist didn’t know Connor was there when he came back in from evacuating his bowels.  Connor didn’t know that the rocket scientist had slowly been getting irradiated by some spilled radiation that had leaked from the chaos that had taken place elsewhere in the institute.  The rocket scientist was nummy, but somehow the irradiated brains of the scientist had changed Connor somehow.  He no longer acted on the pure need to feet.  He could think.  He could even speak (again).  But more importantly, he could now control other zombies.  Get them to do his bidding.  He became a leader to the zombies.  He’d set traps for nearby survivors, and the zombie horde would be waiting.  Despite being more intelligent,  he still has to feed on living flesh…
