Happens all the time. I almost got a doctorate in coloring outside the lines (literally: I didn't see why I should keep my crayon lines INSIDE the printed coloring page lines when there was a perfectly good ENTIRE PAGE I could color all over) but then I fumbled up my thesis by coloring inside SOME of the lines and it's all gone downhill from there. Look at where I am now: one color per line set; how far have I fallen.Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12171148192037764287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284507253262423608.post-87405555772493901332013-08-30T00:01:00.000-04:002013-08-30T00:01:00.786-04:00#98 Ph.D 1<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is part one of a two comic expose on the most valuable currency known to man, the Kristenbucks. Note that both the singular and the plural of the word is Kristenbucks; this is because if you only have one at a time you're doing something wrong. Kristenbucks are an ideal currency for swimming in, lining hamster cages, and occasionally redeeming at the Bank of Kristen for actual, useful objects... but only when the bankers feel like it. (It is a fickle currency.)

The object that Dan is holding is a twenty sided die, or d20 for short. In Dungeons and Dragons players roll a die to determine how well their character performs certain actions- for example, when attempting to lie to another character. If a character rolls a 1, no matter how good their other stats or bonuses are, they will fail... horribly. When a one is rolled archers will accidentally shoot the king instead of the assassin behind the king; a diplomatic translator will think they are complimenting a rival faction's floral arrangements when they actually insulted the rival's mother; a character trying to get rid of a pest who is latched onto their arm will end up <i>punching their own arm off</i>. Every once in a great while a person can be seen to roll a one in the game of life, like when Dan MASTERFULLY bluffed his way through a small lie.Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12171148192037764287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284507253262423608.post-15951964190284386892013-07-05T00:01:00.000-04:002013-07-05T00:01:00.763-04:00#90 Sleepy Pants 5<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Dan keeps odd and ever-changing hours. I had fun with panel composition and strange perspective in this comic.

To be fair the <a href="http://www.mass.gov/dfwele/dmf/recreationalfishing/stripedbass.htm" target="_blank">Striped Bass</a> (or striper) does have distinctive horizontal lines on its body. Still, if one were to come up to me on the street and say 'quick, what's something that has stripes on it' then marine life of all types would be low on my list. I give Dan points for creativity (mild insanity?) on the fly.Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12171148192037764287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284507253262423608.post-60308512243895293672013-05-24T00:01:00.000-04:002013-05-24T00:01:01.830-04:00#84 Worry Wart 2<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I tend to stress out about things. Dan always knows how to point it out in a kind, sensitive manner to help calm me down. HAH, who am I kidding? He just goads me until I stop worrying because I'm too busy hitting him and/or laughing. In other news, I think the first panel is the best self-portrait I've done in a while; it really captures my 'end of the week frazzled' feeling.Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12171148192037764287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284507253262423608.post-11480710416441220232013-05-13T00:01:00.000-04:002013-05-13T00:01:01.509-04:00Watercolor Portrait of Dan<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
