8 in 1 Hour: Bowties are Cool

This chicken wears a Bowtie. Bowties are cool. He's suave and debonair.

I WIN! Though I admit this last one didn't have a very long description. I cut it pretty close. Had to circle back to edit in the tags for this one... and this bit about me winning as well. On a related note I've edited the page layout to display 10 so that this whole series can be seen on one page.

8 in 1 Hour: A Deep Holler

I decided to hit up some gritty sharpness for this picture. I haven't used it lately and I do tend to think of it as my signature style. I figured I should make one. Also I like the idea of a chicken making a speech, so that's what this is. You understand that much right. Well, it's not very hard to understand. It's not all that deep. This is just a thrilling and dramatic speech delivered by a brave and tough as nails chicken.

8 in 1 Hour: DOUBLE GRAYS!

I like this sort of split image. I used them fairly often in my Dual Chicken series. That was quite a fun series to make actually. Didn't really mean anything. Very cinematic. Anyways. This is useful to project a duality. I don't actually have one to go with this picture, mind you.

(Seriously. Why did I pick the time when Google was gonna be so screwed up)

8 in 1 Hour: Yay! A Blanket Ghost

Yay, a blanket ghost! Obviously the effect didn't work as well as the chicken had hoped. Probably something to do with the fact that he chose a blue sheet rather than a white one. At least he had the common courtesy to cut himself some eye holes ruining the sheet for any more sensible purpose.Also observe his slightly dinosaur-like form through the blanket. Obviously without it he'd look normal but the loose spots aren't so detailed.

8 in 1 Hour: A BURNING NURSE!


A MIGHTY MALE NURSE! HE SHOWS HIS BURNING PASSION WITH LITERAL FIRE BURNING BEHIND HIM!! LOOK INTO HIS VIOLET EYES!!! FOUR EXCLAMATIONS IS ENOUGH TO FEND OFF DEATH!!!! CALL OUT TO US NURSE CHICKEN!!!!! YES!!!!!!

It's not a Red Cross because the Red Cross doesn't like people using a Red Cross. So this is an orange cross instead.

8 in 1 Hour: Tiny Pixel

This is a teeny tiny pixel art guy. I don't know why I decided to do pixel art during this. It's tiny and lacks impact and takes longer to do. But I like it. Hell, I might do more!

8 in 1 Hour: Art Deco Eyes



This picture isn't actually Art Deco at all. I'm not sure why I called it that. I just looked at ti and that was what I thought so that was what I called it. I really like the over-sized eyes that don't totally fit on the face. It gives an interesting effect, especially combined with the black background. The elements just blend together with a nervous energy.
(Of course NOW google decided to randomly have downtime...)

8 in 1 Hour: Gunless Gunslinger

A gunslinger in the old west. He needs no gun to handle what is coming at him here and now. It wasn't like a gun would help here anyways. No, he could never shoot what was coming at him. He would never get away with it, and he didn't want to.


The gunslinger prepared for his greatest challenge. He was getting ready... for a family.

8 in 1 Hour: START!!

Well, you've asked what that poll was for. And I admit I held off for a while, but not it's time. 8 Chickens. 1 Hour. Each will have a nice rambling with it as well. The clock starts when I post this. I haven't decided if this will be 8 posts or 1 SUPER POST! Probably the 8 or maybe... I dunno. Wish me luck!

Not Very Pretty Princess

Well, I tried and failed to make a pretty princess, but I felt like I had to share something with you. I mean I still managed to make a princess. I just failed to make her pretty. More of a handsome princess. You know the one they don't really want but who is still totally a princess. Or maybe a more matronly queen...
