Apparently, "Everest" is a big guy (heh heh) in the macro community. I swear I did not know this when I drew this picture. :)

Just another pretty kitty. Remember, absinthe makes the heart grow fonder....

Sorry, Mr. Spielberg....

Created for the Anthrocon 2005 "Heroes" theme. Mr. Rogers rocks my world...but I still have a dirty mind. ;)

"Falstaff" and "Billie D. Huskie" ©2005 J Willard.

He's not a billie, but he's close enough. :)

I blame Wolphy (Le Loup Fou) for the title. :)

My best friend Ingrid, and her shiny new husband. :)

Finally, a Cape Hunting Dog that turned out right. W00t!

Every year, I try to do a "macro" picture for Anthrocon. This year, I think I almost actually made one. :)

I blame the media. :)

I play World of Warcraft, and when I heard that warlocks get pet Voidwalkers, I really did not picture the glowing blue mushroom that actually is used in the game. The image of the "Voidwalker" stuck with me, though, and I had to spit it out....

The idea popped randomly into my head during the drive home from work, and I became very irritable trying to KEEP it in my head. This strange little composition won an honourable mention at the Anthrocon 2005 art show. (I never seem to win anything, but I am often Mentioned, and always Honourably. :)

I'm not sure Huskie <i>remembered</i> asking for this art trade, but I hope she likes it all the same. Neither huskie was hurt making this image. I hope. :)

I've always been a fan of this series, and the new episodes on the BBC this year got me thinking. The fourth Doctor has always been my favourite, but Falstaff is wearing some elements from all the Doctors, because we couldn't decide on just one. :)

Falstaff &copy;2005 J Willard.

In May of 2004, I paid a fantastic sum of money to learn to harness, hitch and drive a team of horses. At the end of the seminar, you harness a pair of Belgian mares (their withers are higher than your head), hitch them to a sledge (basically a dead weight to keep them from running away with you, possibly into the sky), and then drive them through a field. The feel of having 4,000 pounds of horse surging through two leather straps in your hands is extraordinary. The sledge weighed about 500 pounds. The mares pulled it without effort, and we soared silently through a sea of grass.

No, I don't have abiding fantasies about Belgian horses. I do know beefcake when I see it, though. So...will this handsome lad pull you? Or will he break away?

I find that I really can't just draw "normal" pinups anymore. :)

I'm really not sure where this one came from, but Falstaff doesn't seem to mind it. :)

Both Falstaff and Billie D. Huskie are &copy;2004 J Willard. :)

Someday, this young lady will be matched by an image of a male deer wearing a shirt that says, "More Bang For The Buck". :)

Falstaff dons another hat -- now he is Falstaff: Billie Hunter! The caption is best read in one's best (or worst) Aussie accent. Crocodiles have nothing on billies for "Danger! Danger!"

Falstaff, is, of course, &copy;2004 J Willard. :)

A drawing of myself I did for an interview by TameWolf which will be posted online eventually. :) This is kind of what happens when I draw...things just leap right off the paper....:)

Experimenting with a new facial style (I love her muzzle) and...well, my Koh-I-Noor pens are all clogged, so there is only ONE instance of actual pen line in this entire image (around her irises). The rest is all pencil. :) Don't do this, it smudges. :P

"Ginger" and "Billie D. Huskie" are both (c)2003 J Willard :)

Raamah (wolf) and Adino (cheetah) are both favoured slaves in a harem. Falstaff has chosen them out of (presumably) a huge selection, and they are quite happy. Too bad they don't know what they're in for! :)

"Raamah" and "Adino" are &copy;2003 their player and are used with permission, of course; "Falstaff" is &copy;2003 J Willard. More info on Falstaff may be found at www.gotfalstaff.com. More info on Raamah and Adino (and their many friends) can be found on this page: http://www.jimx.clara.net/JimxChars.htm

Falstaff is early for Hallowe'en this year -- he's going as a certain familiar pirate, of course. ;)

"Captain Jack Sparrow" is rightfully (c)Disney -- Falstie's just borrowing the costume for a little pillaging and looting! :) "Falstaff" himself is (c)2003 J Willard.

This "throwaway line" got lots of people giggling at Anthrocon. Sometimes I wonder about you people ;)

Remember, prints are available at Rabbit Valley! ;)

Yes, this should have been an X-rated image, but I didn't have any space in the adult section of the Anthrocon art show this year :) You'll just have to wait for the sequel :)

"F.U.B.A.R." is a military acronym -- the polite translation is "Fouled Up Beyond All Recognition". :)

Marvel owns the claws and the words "adamantium" and "X-men", and well they should. Falstaff (who is MY baby) is only borrowing the costume for a little while...:)

Another sad, sorry exercise in T-shirt designs. I need to get a life :)

"Champagne" -- just a pretty skunk lady in a bubbly tub :)

Visit www.tailie.com if you have not met Billie D. Huskie previously. :)

"Girl Next Door": for some reason, this young kitty lady reminds me of me, though I certainly did not intend that impression.
