Out there, famous, large.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> 2 Short lived with his pops in that rundown <br />house on W 20th. That one with the<br />black iron spears for a fence. The old timer feeds<br />shorties some times when they don’t<br />have anywhere to go—kids like<br />Lil Wino and Jetson.<br />2 Short’s pops is a veterano. Been in jail<br />a few times, been on the street,<br />knows what it’s like. He’d like 2 Short<br />to stay in school, but hey, what you gonna do?<br />The vatos do what they got to do.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> 2 Short sometimes hangs in the backyard.<br />He’s not some nature pussy or nothing,<br />but he likes the yard.<br />Likes the old orange tree. The nopal cactus his<br />pops cuts up and fries with eggs.<br />2 Short studies shit like birds and butterflies,<br />tries to get their shapes and their colors in his tag book.<br />Hummingbirds.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> Out behind their yard is that little scrapyard on 23rd.<br />That one that takes up a block one<br />way and about two blocks the other. Old, too.<br />Cars in there been rusting out since ’68. Gutiérrez,<br />the old dude runs the place, he’s been scrapping<br />the same hulks forever. Chasing kids out of<br />there with a BB gun. Ping! Right in the ass!</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> 2 Short always had too much imagination.<br />He was scared to death of Gutiérrez’s<br />little kingdom behind the fence.<br />All’s you could see was the big tractor G used<br />to drag wrecks around. The black oily crane<br />stuck up like the stinger of the monsters<br />in the sci-fi movies on channel 10. The Black Scorpion and shit.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> The fence was ten feet tall, slats.<br />Had some discolored rubber stuff woven in,<br />like pieces of lawn furniture or something.<br />So 2 Short could only see little bits of<br />the scary wrecks in there if he pressed<br />his eye to the fence and squinted.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> One day he just ran into the fence with his<br />bike and one of those rotten old slats fell<br />out and there it was—a passageway into the yard.<br />He looked around, made sure Pops wasn’t watching,<br />listened to make sure G wasn’t over there,<br />and he slipped through.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> Damn. There were wrecked cars piled on<br />top of each other. It was eerie. Crumpled metal.<br /> Torn-off doors. Busted glass. He could see<br />stars in the wind shields where the<br />heads had hit. Oh man—peeps died in here, Homes.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> 2 Short crept into musty dead cars and twisted the steering wheels.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> He came to a crunched ’71 Charger.<br />The seats were twisted and the dash <br />was ripped out. Was that blood on the old seat?<br />Oh man. He ran his hand over the faded stain. BLOOD.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> He found her bracelet under the seat.<br />Her wrist must have been slender.<br />It was a little gold chain with a little blue<br />stone heart. He held it in his palm.<br />Chick must have croaked right here.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> He stared at the starred windshield.<br />The way it was pushed out around<br />the terrible cracks. Still brown.<br />More blood. And then the hair.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> Oh shit—there was hair in strands still stuck<br />to the brown stains and the glass. Long blonde<br />strands of hair. They moved in the breeze.<br />He touched them. He pulled them free.<br />He wrapped them around his finger.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> That night, he rubbed the hairs over his lips.<br />He couldn’t sleep. He kept thinking of the white girl.<br />She was dead. How was that possible?<br />How could she be dead?</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> He held the bracelet against his face.<br />He lay with the hair against his cheek.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> When he went out to tag two nights later, 2 Short aborted his own name. Die Hard and Arab said, “Yo, what’s wrong with you?”</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> But he only said, “The white girl.”</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> “What white girl? Yo?”</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> But he stayed silent. He uncapped the blue.<br />He stood in front of the train car.<br />THE WHITE GIRL.<br />He wrote it. It went out to New York.<br />He sent it out to Mexico, to Japan on a container ship.<br />THE WHITE GIRL.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> </span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> He wrote it and wrote it. He sent it out to the world. He prayed with his can. He could not stop.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> THE WHITE GIRL.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> THE WHITE GIRL.</span><br /><span class="text_exposed_show"> THE WHITE GIRL.</span></div>alexmercadohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05984112602837796912noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-898266476200384296.post-24124998751624600582012-04-04T08:57:00.004-07:002012-04-04T09:09:35.596-07:00SCRATCH from WE'RE ALIVE<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4-nXuk3PKgg/T3xwEGS04TI/AAAAAAAABmI/13acZEdnumE/s1600/scratch.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 223px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4-nXuk3PKgg/T3xwEGS04TI/AAAAAAAABmI/13acZEdnumE/s320/scratch.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5727576041819791666" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">So I did a quickie sketch of one of the human antagonists<br />from the amazing audio drama podcast "WE'RE ALIVE."<br /><a href="http://www.zombiepodcast.com">http://www.zombiepodcast.com</a><br />I can't stress enough how much you should listen to this<span style="display: block;" id="formatbar_Buttons"><span class=" down" style="display: block;" id="formatbar_CreateLink" title="Link" onmouseover="ButtonHoverOn(this);" onmouseout="ButtonHoverOff(this);" onmouseup="" onmousedown="CheckFormatting(event);FormatbarButton('richeditorframe', this, 8);ButtonMouseDown(this);"><img src="img/blank.gif" alt="Link" class="gl_link" border="0" /></span></span>series. Anyway,<span style="font-weight: bold;"> SCRATCH </span>is a really really villainous<br />character in the series. That of course goes with the<br />great writing of the WA staff and actress Jenna Mccombe.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">SCRATCH is brash, angry and short tempered. I don't want to come<br />off sexist of course, and be like "wow, what a humongous bitch."<br />It's not a factor of gender, but how irritatingly antagonistic she it.<br />I listened to a recent interview with Mccombe, and much like in reality<br />the actress is nothing like their character. It gave me a deep appreciation of<br />the work she does to portray this character.<br /><br />As in how to draw SCRATCH, I always felt there was a punk rock<br />aesthetic to her. When I saw the official picture of actress mccombe<br />on the We're Alive site, she had the girl faux-hawk (which I love on women)<br />and it fit in my mind what SCRATCH would be wearing to begin with.<br />I wanted her to come off as a bit frightening, yet still feminine.<br /><br />I made sure she had light eyes, in my head, hazel or yellow. originally<br />her eyes pointed downward as if she were speaking into a CB radio,<br />then I realized it would look strange, so just cut and pasted them to<br />look forward. I wanted very full lips (just because i like it!)<br />because she is an alpha-female, so her beauty and strength would be hand in<br />hand. Of course, when she gets angry the beauty twists. As for the scar,<br />I always like putting scars on faces, and over the nose generally. In one<br />of the episodes it was confirmed by another character (well, in my mind)<br />that the scar is indeed over her nose. I made her mouth larger just to make<br />her a bit more predatory, an eyebrow piercing to keep the punker look.<br /><br />This is more detail than usual for a 10 minute sketch,<br />but I really, really like the show. You should listen.<br /></div>alexmercadohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05984112602837796912noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-898266476200384296.post-46590435584668326962012-04-02T13:05:00.002-07:002012-04-02T13:08:39.875-07:00pieces at the trend show<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-as5aHtr1SX8/T3oHPtOgDRI/AAAAAAAABlw/la6eoxxbXAg/s1600/sr.jpg"><img style="display:block;
