May 4th, 2006 :: “R-A-D Turns 6 Today!”
Six months, that is. It was six months ago today that I drew my first robot specifically for Robot-A-Day and posted it, and look at how far we’ve come together! I initially wanted all of my robots to have its number integrated into the illustration somehow. That stopped on November 5th, aka robot #2, so think of today’s robot as an homage to that initial failed idea.
The idea behind Robot-A-Day was just a creative way to keep myself drawing regularly. I only planned on doing it for one year. Now, at the half-way point, I’m not sure I will be able to stop on November 4th, 2006. The support from regular viewers, connections with other artists, and just plain ol’ fun I’ve had drawing robots for myself and all of you is too great to think about stopping.
Thank you.
Now quick, somebody buy something from the R-A-D Store so I can afford to go out and celebrate.
Well done BT, have you ever got fed up of robots in the last 6 months ?
There was a time, right before I switched from seven days a week to five, that I was about ready to scrap the whole site, but I’ve never been fed up with robots.
Hey BT, congrats on six months of robots. Any special plans for the second half of the year? I say bring back ‘What if they were Robots?’ in sketch/drawing form.
Thanks, Bander. You know, that’s not a half bad idea…
Woo! It’s funny how doing something you love, when it becomes an obligation, ends up being a real chore.
That’s so true, but I’m glad I made it through that rough patch, and am back on the robot road again.
