Kickstarter Sketches (With Mai Tai)
Shaenon: The hardest SH character to sketch is Gavotte. She’s a friggin’ swarm of bees. In this case, I made the unilateral decision that I’d rather focus on drawing tiki drinks.
Channing: Alternately, it’s Bubbles the Water Cooler in tropical dress. Man, it would be so disappointing to just get water in your daiquiri glass. Not that I regularly drink girly drinks with lots of bright colors and fruit and stuff. Or anything like that.
Bubbles’ outfit is gorgeous! I don’t even wear dresses that often and I want a dress like that!
… maybe that should be my next sewing project.
Is that Dr Lee with Nick, or with one of the “plip” brains?

When on vacation,
There’s a certain libation
Ev’rybody tries …
Mai Tai!
Once you start drinking
You’ll be legally stinking
‘Fore you realize …
Mai Tai!
Enjoy it while you’re lounging in a chair beside the shore now!
Trader Vic invented it in nineteen forty-four, how
‘Bout one more round?
It’s served in a tiki glass,
It sends your B.A.C. soaring, you’re drunk off your a**
From a
Mai Tai!
You’ll have a lot of fun!
Mai Tai!
Made with one-fifty-one!
Mai Tai!
One more and you’ll be done … in!
Been missing your brilliance, Eddurd!
I haven’t read this comment since you first posted it last year, but the other day it spontaneously got stuck in my head
I was thinking it was a pina colada, but I wouldn’t know one tiki-bar drink from another…
At least your hair looks perfect
I’m not a drinker myself, but any excuse is good for drawings of hibiscus (my favorite flower).
That little sweat drop ornament on Bubble’s headband. That’s just perfect.
Gavotte will need to make sure no one bee drinks too much of her drink: that much alcohol could probably be quite dangerous to an individual insect.
On the other hand, the bees are like her cells, so maybe she wouldn’t miss one or two …
That’s one advantage she has over human drinkers: she can actually _see_ the cells dying, which probably is a good incentive to avoid overdoing it.
If your friend is a brain in a jar, can you travel with them as carry on luggage, or do you still need to buy them a ticket?
Okay, so who asked for the drawing of Nick naked?
Well, Virginia is sitting like they’re by a fireplace in a ski-lodge, so maybe she did.
Well Jeff if, hypothetically, you were to drink cocktails for those reasons, I for one would be in no position to poke fun as I didn’t even notice Gavotte at first. I was too focused on how delicious the drink looked 😀
