344 DAILY MONSTER 204

[Tylerwood234]

what do you use to shade?

[StefanGBucher]

Just a regular pencil lead. H or B. Sometimes HB. :^)

[htjdelft]

This one makes my day. Thanks Stefan!

[StefanGBucher]

You're welcome, htjdelft. It's very much my pleasure. :^)

[ZazcKun]

ok although the monster are brillent will you upload a video of you drawing a non-monster thing so we no you not a one hit wonder P

[StefanGBucher]

Hello ZazcKun. Thank you for your comment. I appreciate it. If you're curious, google my name and see what comes up. :^)

[jlumley]

why do you do this?, there is obviously no money in it

[StefanGBucher]

So cynical, jlumley! I do it because it's fun! I had almost stopped drawing, and now I get to draw all the time. I got to teach myself some basic animation, I meet a ton of nice people, I got a cool book published, my hands are on TV from time to time... I get to sit here and make Monsters. It's a cool life! :^)

[jlumley]

have you ever thought about using your talent for weapons design?; any fool can use their skill for developing society...but destroying society now that takes a true evil genius. Personally I do my bit by selling drugs to kids.

[ZazcKun]

lol omg

[StefanGBucher]

M'eh, I'll just keep on rotting their brains with my drawings. :^)

[marniespeaks]

tight toes

[StefanGBucher]

That's true. But the Monsters have feet that make those shoes super-comfortable.:^)

[marniespeaks]

monster stretcher - I need to get one of those

[Modularized]

Have you ever considered selling some for charity? If you already have, I'm sorry I missed it. :P

[StefanGBucher]

Hello Modularized. A few of them have gone for charity, including yesterday's Monster, actually. :^)

[Modularized]

I knew that, but auctions I would actually be able to participate in would be appreciated. :P You should either come over to the netherlands or make some monsters for ebay. I'd love to have a monster done by you.

[StefanGBucher]

Fair enough. I didn't know why you were asking. Sorry. You can buy prints at store344 dt com, or commission an original drawing, though those are a bit pricey. (I also just did a whole series for an ad agency in Belgium. They're on display there, but not for sale, of course.) In all those cases the beneficiary of the charity is me, i.e. it helps me keep the lights on. :^)

[knockx2itsjanet]

very cool stefan! what do you do with all your monster friends? file them in a cabinet? there must be way over 204 haha

[StefanGBucher]

Hello knockx2itsjanet. Oh, way more than 204 now. I keep them in a collection of portfolios. :^)

[slyzers]

cool, it looks like those cartoony combusted birds

[StefanGBucher]

That sounds right, slyzers. Combusted birds are my favorite. :^)

[glokkpod84]

Glad you got everything working

[StefanGBucher]

Thank you, glokkpod84. :^)

[liamhcarson]

ok i take back my comment yesterday. THIS, if i have time, will be the inspiration behind this piece of writing i keep promising :)

[StefanGBucher]

Nothin' but words, Liam. Nothin' but words. But then also.. no words yet! One more day let! :^D

[HungrySeahorse]

I'd forgotton how much I love watching these videos!!!

Love your style!

[waagemensch]

Hey, ich liebe diese Technik total, was ist das für ein Luftgerät, das du da hast ?

Ist das so eine Art Sprüh Luftflasche ?

[Skorsch]

man nennt es auch strohhalm...

[StefanGBucher]

Grundsätzlich nicht falsch, Skorsch, aber in diesem Fall hat Waagemensch recht: Es ist eine Dose mit Druckluft. :^)

[MegaZombieNation]

I have subscribed to you and watched each and every monster drawing. You are by far one of the most creative minded artists that exists in this world today. Keep up the amazing work.

[StefanGBucher]

Thank you for the very kind note, MegaZombieNation. I'm flattered and glad you like my guys. :^)
