#Sketchbook Sunday! A page with some anatomy studies of lips and ears and a another page of a nude guy resting on a table. The third image is a postcard I pasted to one of my sketchbooks. The last is a drawing of a minotaur-like creature with strange proportions and a third-eye.

A page in a sketchbook. There are drawings of anatomical studies of the lips and ears, drawn in ink.

A page in a sketchbook. A black and white ink drawing of a very hairy man. He is leaning over what appears to be a small table, with his arms crossed over the surface. His face is buried in the crook of his arm.

A page in a sketchbook. A postcard is pasted onto the page. The postcard is a reproduction of a cover of The New Yorker. It depicts a humorous scene at a security checkpoint in an airport, as a nude man walks through the body scanner, while all his clothes remain in the bin feeding into the X-ray cabinet.

A page in a sketchbook. A black and white pencil drawing of a nude animal/human hybrid from the hips up. The body is that of a man, while the head is what looks like a deformed ox head with elongated distortions, curled horns and a third eye centered on his forehead.

It’s #Sketchbook Sunday! A page from my sketchbook, some loose pieces I haven’t glued into my sketchbook yet, and some more character design explorations on scrap paper (a tear out calendar page). #NoAI #Comics #ComicSky #IndieComics

A page in a gridded sketchbook, featuring a pasted cutout of a draw of two nude men. The first man is balding and sits with his legs crossed, and his hands pressed against each other . The other man sits on a lounge chair, with his legs crossed and his right hand against in face in a thinking gesture. A lamp sits behind them in the background.

Three cutout scraps of paper with ink drawings on them. The first is a loose anatomical sketch of a person’s thigh and buttocks from the side, as well as a toonish rendering of Batman saying “I’m Batman.” The second is a drawing of a statue made out of hatchmarks. In the corner there is some text reading “North Italian, Assumption of the Virgin, 1700/1710, Marble at A.I.C. (Art Institute of Chicago), and the third sketch is a drawing of a sleeping black and white cat.

A loose sheet from a tear out calendar. It is filled with loose sketches of cartoonish nude people in different poses, gestures and designs.

It’s #Sketchbook Sunday! A lot of the time I doodle and sketch on scrap paper, like when I’m at work or too lazy to go get my sketchbook out of my bag. I can’t bear to part with some of them, so I cut them out and paste them into my sketchbook. #NoAI #Comics #ComicSky #Caricatures

An arrangement of drawings on paper cutouts. The drawings are quick and sketchy, illustrating things like a gorilla man, a hairy beast, a creature in the shape of the number one with spikes on its back, a diagram of a pen nib and its parts, a skeleton wearing a suit and a halo, a creature with a lightbulb for a butt and other doodles.

A page in a gridded sketchbook. The page has pasted cutouts with caricatures of people’s faces, and one drawing is of three naked dancers around a bonfire.

Early version of a gag in my book about where nudists keep their stuff. The dog acted as a censor, but I quickly decided that wasn’t the humor I wanted. Wish I would have kept that dog, but I forgot about him. This is also why they carry backpacks or tote bags in the final draft. #BTS #IndieComics

A black and white cartoon panel, featuring an exchange between a nude male ice cream vendor named Buster and a nude female surfer named Sunny. Titled “Bark Comedy.” Panel one: Buster, frantic, says “Sunny! That was the chilliest breeze I’ve ever felt and I’ve lived in this town my entire life.” Panel Two: Buster says “Something’s wrong!” and Sunny says “Let me check the weather app on my phone!” Panel Three: a dog pops out of nowhere yelling “BARK” in large lettering. Panel four: Buster says, looking out at the viewer, “Hey, friendly reminder. This is just a cartoon. So relax and don’t ask too many questions. Sunny says, looking at her phone, “Maaan, I got sand on it.”

I declare today, for myself, as Sketchbook Sunday! I still like to think with my hands and sketch out my ideas. Here are some examples of sketches I used to plan some panels in my book, available on Amazon. #HumanArt #HumanMade #IndieComics #NoAI

A photo of a page in a sketchbook. The paper is preprinted eith a dotted grid. Four comic book panels are loosely sketched out in red and blue pencil. The first panel depicts an exterior shot with speech bubbles coming from a good truck. The second panel depicts a tight shot of the driver’s window, with speech bubbles coming from the radio and the driver looking concerned. The third panel depicts the driver squinting his eyes as he says something. The final panel is a wide shot of two food trucks in dramatic perspective, one following the other.

The first page in the story from my book! After two years of working on it on and off, it’s finally happening!

A comic page, in the layout of newspaper Sunday funnies. The title reads “The Day the Pool Became Ice Cream! by Tito Adler.” A blurb reads “BUSTER BUNNE HAS ONE GOAL: TO CREATE THE NEXT ICE CREAM SENSATION! WE JOIN HIM AS HE PONDERS HIS NEXT MOVE...” We see a shot of a notebook with a list strange ice cream names scratched out and pencil. Cut to the main character, Buster Bunne, wearing an ice cream vendor hat, a blue backpack and sandals. As he walks along the beach, he looks worried, mulling ice cream names: “MANGO MIRAGE...NO! PIÑATA PARTY...NO! BANANA BANDSTAND.. NO! PEACHY KEEN LIME PIE...NO!” Cut to Buster raising his fist in defiance: “UGH! NO, NO, NO! I'VE HEARD OF ALL OF THESE! WHAT'S A FLAVOR THAT NO ONE HAS EVER HEARD OF BEFORE?!” Cut to him looking down at his keys, annoyed. Cut to him standing next to his home door ready to open the door. He cries out in frustration: “SANDY CHURRO? GRUMPY SUNSET? FRIED AIR?!“ A nude elderly gentleman quips behind him: “HEY THAT SOUNDS GOOD, WHEN DO YOU OPEN?” A dog sitting next to the old man scratches his ears.

Boy it’s a hot one. Cool off with a panel from upcoming book.

A color illustration of a nude man in a yoga pose floating on a cloud. Behind him a bright light radiates from behind the nude man against the blue sky. The nude man has what looks like a melting scoop of ice on his head as a hay. Floating ice cream cones in different flabors float alongside him. The nude man has a peaceful expression on his face, with closed eyes and a closed and soft smile.

It’s #SkinnyDipDay! Below is a particularly dramatic skinny dip from my book, “Unsexy Nudie Tales From Pretty Beach! The Day The Pool Became Ice Cream!”

Two long and horizontal black and white cartoon panels stacked vertically. The top panel depicts a nude woman in the foreground, diving dramatically into turbulent waters. Way in the background is a clothed lifeguard, shocked at the diving nude woman. The nude woman yells “I’M GOING IN!”, as the lifeguard yells “WHAT?!”. The bottom panel depicts the nude woman completely submerged as she swims toward the reader, bubbles from the dive trailing behind her. The room’s ceiling is visible through the surface of the water above and darkness radiates from below the nude woman.

Super fun to draw panel from my book.

A black and white cartoon of a heavily distorted man’s head with bulging eyes screaming at the top of his lungs. Large and rough lettering spelling “AHHH!!!!” radiates around him.

Deep beneath the sands of Pretty Beach, somehow there is a cavernous, high-tech sanctuary of ice cream justice and sugary wonders! Sample panel from my book.
