still not very successful at avoiding the usual themes - true we may have a pairing of giant and mini aliens that we've never seen before; but we also have some rocket-packing spacemen who look very much like the guys we've seen spacewalking in the past
... and, of course, there's still a dirty great space rocket at the bottom of the doodle !i guess the problem is that when i doodle it's a relatively subconscious act for me, so i would normally have no active thought process as i'm doodling.
so if i start to thing 'i don't want to doodle this or that' then i enevitably start thinking about what i should doodle instead; and then it all gets a little contrived.
ah well, i sit through the same presentation again tomorrow; lets see what we get then, eh "?
not very successful at my stated aim of avoiding the old favourites - here we see rocket ships, aliens planets, and even some little tentacles.
maybe my next one will be a little more unique ?
another spacewalk
this is one of MANY little doodles, from yesterday's two and a half hour meeting.
my favourite one, i should add - from probably an hour and a half or so into the proceedings.
obviously, by this point, i'd said my various pieces and the mind was starting to wander.
eyeball space monster - thank the lord for my friday meetings !
yup, lots of desk space, a nice pen, and a slow paced meeting allowed me to go off on one a bit with the tentacled eyeball monster that you see to the left.
...and i managed to upset at least one person into the bargain, too.
job well done, i'd say !
alien attack !!!
in my regular friday meeting i'm fast becoming the pain-in-the-arse guy who asks questions that maybe others don't want to, or feel that they shouldn't have to.
in many ways it feels a little like i'm pointing out that the bloke on the throne up there is naked as the day he was born.
so i suppose that explains the lone schmuck in the doodle being set upon by a herd of marauding beak-mouthed aliens...
but today was a good day, today they listened to the schmuck
a spacewalk; the first comment from s on this one was something along the lines of "you're colouring them in now ?"
...and she does have a point. to clarify - i don't take packs of highlighters into meetings; doodles like this will tend to be at my desk (phone calls, waiting for something to finish running on the pc, etc.)
i have a headache now from the fumes off the highlighters/whiteboard markers... i suffer for this blog !
an alien abduction, and boy i was praying for something along these lines to save me from the meeting i was in today.
only 1 hr 20, though, so not so bad on that front.
little did i know, however, i'd be leaving this meeting to right into another one...(see next post)
superpotato !
...in a galaxy far far away, a planetoid inhabited by spud-like superhero figures looks on.

alien cowboy on the range, something of a cross between spongebob's plankton, and some kinda mr.potato head.
i'm obviously in some sort of space/alien headspace at the moment (see also the next post).
the goldfish bowl-type spaceman helmet perched over the cowboy hat at a jaunty angle didn't quite work though.

i think you can tell just by looking at this one that it was a pretty mind-numbing meeting, this one.
i think that things had proceeded for more than an hour before anything even slightly relevant to me was touched upon.
...so i'm left with a sub-star trek planet scape for my time.
