Something Embarrassing

Hey I guess it's been a while. I haven't been very good about updating frequently which I largely blame on some recent personal problems and depression. I gave art therapy a try without really knowing if there's a correct way to do it or not and ended up with a lot of horrible, depressing drawings and writing which I didn't feel were really helping me.
Afterward I endeavored to draw something cheery and happy, perhaps even involving the Calico Jack characters. I drew this:

I guess this sort of thing makes some people happy, personally I find this sort of thing really stupid and I'm embarrassed that this is the best I could think of. That said, embarrassment is funny-- so I guess this is a net win for me.

Bonus Art: Monochrome Sketches

Well, I was hoping that I would have Issue Three done by now. Though by next week I ought to have half of it done so I can start uploading then. So for now let's just say that this is the last of the bonus art I'll throw your way for a while. I'll admit that these won't be new to you if you've been hanging around my deviantArt, yeah I have a deviantArt now but who doesn't these days right? I got the idea to do weird watercolored sketches from E*phi, she does these beautiful sketchbook drawings, most having at least a touch of color thrown in that really adds some interest.

Time to start up the ship!
I have occasionally pondered what Alder's Energy Crisis drinks might be like, probably fizzy and bad for you. That said, when I was drawing the thumbnails for this issue it occured to me as Jack was running he was also sort of shaking the drink up. So then I drew this:

I guess assume that it took place later and off panel.

Sketchy Lettering

A few of my favorite artists will often upload some great sketchbook drawings on their blogs. So in the interest of trying something new I thought I'd do more inked drawings in my sketchbook and upload them too. What I'd like to do is use a different lettering style for the title in each issue so here I'm trying my hand it various types of lettering.
The big blocky one is my favorite, I sort of want that as a rubber stamp. What do you guys think?
