The Dragon Schemes



I've been having 'fun' enhancing many of my old drawings; for some reason they yield the most personally intriguing results; for me it's almost like having a time machine with a quick-evolution button. But ChatGPT was being obstreperous, calling everything I suggested ‘sexual,’ even poor old Borrisk, another alien from my old sci-fi series.  Then it made me wait for an hour; I was ‘loading content too fast.’ The entire session yielded one picture, ‘The Dragon Schemes.’

I'm considering getting a free trial of Chat GPT Plus for a month. I think that's what all this fumferaw from the program is hinting at. I'm thinking about it. It's only $20 a month if I decide to stick with it, if I'm remembering correctly. That's a fair chunk out of my meager entertainment budget, but I'm quickly being besotted by the whole thing.

Borrisk:


Just in case anyone wants to get their jollies. Oo-la-la!

Dragon in Disguise





Another ancient middle school effort reborn. After I drew this picture of a dragon trying to infiltrate human society, John and I collaborated on a two-page comic strip telling how the dragon first steals the clothes and then goes to an inn. I drew the dragon bits and John did all the other characters in his own cartoon style. I've said it before and I'll probably say it again, about how we'd have been blown away by this technology. I mean, we are now, but back then!

Actual Birthday Presents!

 All right, all those Birthday Books I got were things I bought to celebrate my 58th year. Many were things I’d had on my wish list for a long time, and a host of them were books for under five dollars (but the shipping – oy!). But here are actual, bona fide birthday PRESENTS, and the best kind of presents too. These are things that people know I would no doubt want to have but would be reluctant to buy for myself.

“One of the most iconic Disney villains in film history is now one of the biggest and most spectacular Q-Figs ever made: The Maleficent Dragon Q-Fig Max Elite. Make space on your shelves and ready your jaw to drop when you get the power and fury of the one and only Mistress of All Evil in her dragon form, Q-Fig style.

Inspired by the classic Disney animated film Sleeping Beauty, The Maleficent Dragon Q-Fig Max Elite presents Maleficent in her terrifying dragon form as she engages in battle with Prince Phillip. Maleficent’s stunning black and purple scales juxtapose perfectly against her glowing yellow eyes and her forked tongue as she prepares to unleash flaming fury. Maleficent’s Dragon form is massive, standing nearly 8 inches tall atop an ornate cobbled bridge display base. From her intricately sculpted horns to her colossal wingspan, Maleficent is simply the ultimate collectible for any Disney fan.” – Walmart.

“Get a triple-sized dose of panda-packed awesomeness from DreamWorks Animation in the Kung Fu Panda 3-Movie Collection! In Kung Fu Panda, a fun-loving panda named Po embraces his destiny as the Dragon Warrior. Then in Kung Fu Panda 2, Po and his fellow kung fu masters band together to protect the Valley of Peace from a fierce rival. Finally, in Kung Fu Panda 3, Po must train an entire village of clumsy pandas to defeat an ancient villain!” – Amazon. Includes a 4th disc full of extras.
