I'm blue-screened and my PC died, screened and my PC died...

Well, kinda. My semi-trusty Dell has been BSoD'd before, and it went away. But it's back with a vengance! This means that I'll probably take a while to do more bunny updates. Not because I can't draw them (we have another PC with a tablet), but because I owe other people traditional art that I can't scan! So now I have to back up my hard drive externally so I don't accidentally blow up all my files while I try to resolve this issue. And I'll likely have to borrow a friend's scanner or something to make sure I keep up with thing I owe people. And I'll have to boot other people off this family computer so I can use it for art and stuff... *sigh*

Despite the great inconvenience this has caused me, I still managed to crank out some relevant ugly bunny art for you all to laugh at.

Your regularly scheduled bunnies will return shortly. I must take my leave, for Alas! I have many an art that is all but completed. Fare thee well, noble bunny bloggers! God save My PC!

More Bunnies!

Today we have two bunnies, both done on request!

First, I got a request for "either an office space bunny or a bunny to complain about TGIF bunny's flare." I decided to combine the two ideas. =]

Second, I made a new Twitter page for this blog! A certain Billiejai_TW was the first to follow me, so I gave them a surprise request! They asked for the white rabbit from Disney's original "Alice in Wonderland," and I happily obliged. Of course, I don't draw rabbits. Only bunnies. ;]

I've got quite a few bunny requests lined up, and I"ll be drawing them all soon. Stay tuned!

Announcement: Tumblr Bunnies!

Attention bunny fans!

If you have a Tumblr, I have good news! You can now follow this blog with your Tumblr account at http://uglybunnyart.tumblr.com!

It updates automatically via RSS feed, and you'll still have to click the link to visit this blog for the posts. But you'll be able to actively follow the bunny updates without using a Blogger account. Hooray!

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get on with stuff and things. There should be a new bunny up by day's end, so keep and eye out!

Thugly Bunny

Little known fact!

Ugly bunnies was actually a project I started at Comic-Con 2009. I continued it a bit in a sketchbook when I started college that following September. This thug bunny was one of the bunnies that I had drawn in my sketchbook. I'll show you guys some of my original bunnies once I can find the sketchbook!

Ain't nothin' but a B thing, baby.

Grand Opening! BASE jumping!

Hello!

Today marks the day that I actually reveal the Ugly Bunnies blog to my friends! =D I've proven to myself that I can update at least once a week, if not twice, so I feel confident in showing this to people. Be sure to look at the previous posts I did while this was a blog in progress!

Today's update comes from an activity suggestion I received via my Twitter account. BASE jumping! I'd never heard of the activity before, so I Googled it (of course). BASE stands for buildings, antennae, spans (bridges) and earth (cliffs). Basically, a bunch of stuff that crazy-awesome parachute divers jump from.

Working with the perspective and lighting was fun with this one. And what ho! We have a background as well! Most of my ugly bunnies are mere portraits, but some need a scene to go with them. Like this one!

Geronimooooo!

First PCB! Dodson Bunny!

What's a PCB, you ask? A pop culture bunny! I can't say how routinely I'll be doing them, but fret not, they shall abound!

My favorite pop culture icon of the now is Antoine Dodson. No matter how sucky I feel (and I've been feeling sucky lately), his eccentric interview and accompanying song always bring a smile to my face and a giggle up my nose.

So, I present to you readers, Dodson Bunny!

"She's lookin' for photos of you. She's drawin' you in OC tryin' to turn you into bunnies so y'all better hide yo facebook, hide yo myspace, and hide yo flickr too 'cause SHE'S TURNIN' ERRBODY INTO BUNNIES OUT HERE."

More bunnies to come!

Attack of the Hot Glue Bunny!

So the other day I was thinking of a new bunny to draw. I wanted a monster bunny. Initially I was thinking of Bunnyzilla, but that sounds kind of cheesy, even for me.

My occupation (costume design) requires that I use a hot glue gun and lots (read: LOTS) of hot glue. It gets everywhere. My table, my pants, my fingertips, the second layer of my skin.... erm, anyway, I though a hot-glue monster would be a fun thing to draw.

BLLYYYEAAARRRRGGGHHH

Keep an eye out for more bunnies to come soon!

A Header!

I made one! I think that qualifies as an update. ;]

I've got another ugly bunny in the works but I need to focus on other art I owe people for the evening. You shall have a new bunny tomorrow, though!

Uncle Bunny and I'm tired

I actually finished most of this bunny last night, but I was too tired to post it. And now I'm still too tired to post it. But you guys deserve bunnies so I'm forcing myself to post it.

Here's a big cheerful bunny. He's the uncle everyone wished they had, if they wished their uncle was a bunny.

Also, coloring plaid is fun. F'real, yo.

More bunnies to come! I'm no professional cartoonist, and I can't update this daily, but I'll try to get at least three bunnies per week in.

Cheers!

TGI Bunnies

TGIF indeed! This morning I woke up thinking about TGI Fridays, even though I've only been there once (it's expensive and not that amazing, really). So, for this fine Friday, I drew this TGI Ugly Bunny.

I think those sliders look mighty tasty. Be sure to leave a tip or he might send some guys he knows after your kneecaps. =]

Post Number One

Hello!

This is an art blog idea I want to try out. It's basically a bunch of bunnies, because bunnies are versatile like that.

I currently haven't invited anyone to view this blog because I want to make sure I can keep up with updates before I allow people to see it.

All the bunnies will be colored openCanvas sketches, like this Jess Bunny:

I'll keep posting bunnies until I feel that I've done a good job about it. Then I'll invite people to see this.

Cheers!

Jess
