Sweater vests!

by David M Willis on September 10, 2010 at 12:00 pm
Posted In: Blog

Back in Roomies! everyone wore the same outfit all the time because my art was primitive and it was easier to tell everyone apart that way.  Also because that just happens in cartoons.  It’s a done thing!

But for Dumbing of Age, when I was starting to put this universe together, I wanted everyone to have several changes of clothes.  And I wanted the changes of clothes to be thought out instead of a by-the-seat-of-my-pants sort of thing.  That way lies blank colored t-shirts!

So here’s some Joyce torsos that I brainstormed.  I want every character to have their own style, and Joyce’s is, uh, “sweater vests.”  That’s even the name of the file.  Not only does she wear a variety of sweater vests, but they’re also all using a certain range of colors that I’ve assigned to her.  Orange!  Pink!  Brown!

At this moment in time I haven’t yet put it into practice, as I’m about a month ahead on DoA strips and they all, so far, take place on the same day.   Joyce is a little spoiled, but not so spoiled that she changes her outfit every other hour.

Shortpacked!: The Panel @ AnimeFest 2010

Shortpacked! Panel – AnimeFest 2010 from John DeLuna on Vimeo.

Man, superthanks to Joel Watson (Hijinks Ensue) for his help moderating and emceeing and basically unsuckifying this panel. All success that hour was due to him.  See, I don’t talk good.

And additional thanks to John DeLuna, my longtime Internet accomplice, for filming this for us and putting it up on Vimeo.

And final thanks to everyone who totally showed up, actually filled the damn room (!), and kept us busy with questions.  I figgered it’d be me, Joel, and five people.  I was so so wrong.

I will not watch this video because I am an awkward motherfucker.
