So, when I was, like, 11 or 12 or so, I used to draw myself like this. This before the “Damp Owl” trademark, when my Youtube channel was ‘MegaAdam1000′ and my style - if you could call it that - was essentially bargain bin Eddsworld-meets-Family-Guy, drawn by some kid who knew nothing of the industry or what it takes to get into it, simply that he wanted in.

This was done in MS Paint, with a mouse, and pretty much zero comprehension of basic art skills like anatomy, color theory, basic character design. It’s a 12 year-old just drawing what he thinks “cool” is.

And I guess to me, “cool” was a red hoodie, a general “I’m so cool and sassy and funny” attitude, and.. some kind of anime haircut that, looking at it now, I don’t know what it was supposed to be?? Like, how do the physics of that thing even work? Like I get it, I was 12 and I couldn’t draw for shit, but I’m racking my brain here trying to figure out what I thought I was drawing? I didn’t even have hair like that, as a kid I had a generic buzzcut like all the boys in my school did, where the fuck did this thing come from?

At any rate.. I thought it would be funny to draw this 12-year-old rendition of Adam alongside the new and improved one. I like to think that 2008 Adam would be pretty stoked to see this.

The moral of the story is that we all start somewhere, we all started off doing cringe-worthy chickenscratch that was drawn in Microsoft paint with a basic computer mouse. Then you go to college for a few years, watch some YouTube tutorials, get a tablet, make enough drawings to fill the Grand Canyon, and.. you’re still not there yet.

But you’re a step closer, right?

In order to win the approval of the Gorillaz Discord server I must dress like their king.

Best thing to come out of phase four was absolutely those stupid motion-capture Murdoc and 2D interviews.
