I DIG DUG is an insanely hilarious comic created by the insanenly hilarious Douglas Weller. I DIG DUG first saw print in "Tne Lantern", The Ohio State University daily newspaper, from 1999-2001. IDD also saw print in "The Hometown Connection", Marysville, Ohio's weekly newspaper from 2006-2009. Currently, IDD is on hiatus while I concentrate on "Lost on Earth" which I'm designing as a web-comic. Syndication, action figures, cartoons, and a live action movie deal can't be too far behind.

"I DIG DUG the Cornhole Boards"
So...you can't just sit down with a pencil and start drawing on the boards. It just doesn't work. So after a few coats of white, I sat down with my handy dandy sketchbook and started brainstorming some ideas.
The top four sketches were my 'final four' and as I looked them over I opted to do each board differently. No sense in just settling for one design when you can do two, right? So as I looked over these four designs, and talked about them with Carrie, I opted to do one board using the design on the upper left, and the other using the design on the lower right. I don't know about you...but word balloons just didn't look right. SO...I opted with two 'poster-like' splash pages and went with it.
There's not much done with them at this time. With my OSU class, my daughter's birthday party, art camps next week, and softball tourneys on the weekend it's just too tough to commit time to painting. Which stinks...because I'd really like to get them done. But...since I don't have the bags yet for the game, I guess there's no real rush to get the boards painted, right?
