On hold

Hey guys! Sorry for falling off. Ugly Girls are on hold for now, as I am starting to draw for my graphic novel. The Girls were an exercise to keep my drawing muscles warmed up while I wrote, but that is no longer needed. Enough with writing! 'Tis a new dawn, a drawing dawn.

I'm thinking of starting a new blog for the new drawings, once I set that up I will let you guys know.

Sincerely,
H

Ugly Girl 47



Sorry gentle readers, I've been neglecting my ugly girling. These past few days I've been wrapping up the 3rd draft of my graphic novel, but that's done with and now I can give my girls the attention they deserve!

Ugly Girl 42



No something horrible did not happen to this girl, she's doing a pose called the "Salabhasana". And yes she's wearing Lululemon clothes.

Hello viewers! Just wanted to give you a heads up: 5 day Ugly Girl drought coming up. I'm flying out to L.A. tomorrow to the premier of "The Hangover Part II" to see my brother's Hollywood debut (he's the asian kid)! I'm very excited. I hope you can forgive the Ugly Girl sacrifice, which I know you will because Ugly Girl followers are the best people in the world.

Ugly Girl 28



Hello dear viewers, I apologize for not posting on Friday, 'twas my birthday, and well... I was too damn lazy to draw one. Today's girl comes very late and very scant, for this I apologize too. I need to reinstate Ugly Girls as a priority (I'm sorry girls, I didn't mean it, you'll always be a priority to me!).

Crazy tired.

Ni hao to the few and faithful! I'm back from the Orient with cheek of tan and world view slightly broadened! Chinese language skills are rapidly fading again, but no matter! My jet lag is conquered and I am ready to get back in the business of Ugly Girls! Huzzah!

Ugly Girl 24


A very late, very strange (even for my standards) looking Ugly Girl today. My first attempt at sketching in Photoshop, which is actually quite a nice way to work.


There will be a long Ugly Girl drought coming, so please make sure you have made the necessary preparations: canning food, weatherproofing windows, repenting, etc. I leave for the Orient tomorrow, and shan't return for a full fortnight (May 5th), so hunker down. Also, please remember to water my plants.

By popular demand, Jimmy Choo nude wedge sandals.

I apologize, today's girl is a little too attractive. Will strive for better ugliness in the future.

Ugly Girl 22



Sorry this one is so late, busy day today. I think this is the first time I've written anything in cursive since 5th grade.

You may be asking yourself, "Why does that ugly girl look like a mystical hobo wizard? She's not very fashionable." Let me just say that you are right. My attempts to copy the outfit below did not bear fashionable fruit.

New discovery today
: "bandage dress". So many types of clothes, so many names it's incredible.

I now know "romper" and "bandage dress".

I'm a FASHION GENIUS.

An extra fancy illustrator ugly girl for you dear viewer, to comfort you in these trying times.

Ugly Girl 15


Sorry for the extra long drought faithful viewers, things got crazy busy Friday-Monday but I'm done with the illustration gig so more time to devote to ugly girls! To make up for the missing days today's drawing has two girls!

Inspired by American Apparel.

Ugly Girl 14


Her legs are curled behind her. I realized it kind of looks like her legs were chopped off

Ugly Girl 13



Two more followers, huzzah! Sorry this one is uploaded so late, Mr. and Ms. Internet. My temporary illustration gig is keeping me busy during the day.

I actually laughed while drawing Ugly Girl 13. Trying to make skinny model clothing fit on her Totoro-like body was just ridiculous. Plus the blissfully vacant stare and her equally blissful smile makes grinning unavoidable.

Ugly Girl 12



Two new followers hooray! Sorry for the sparsely drawn girl today, I have a week-long illustration gig at my old job, so I won't have that much time to get too fancy.

Tried to be a little fancier with the background today. Gotta keep things interesting, especially on a Friday.

Props to Ann Kidder for introducing me to the "Romper".

Mmm... nothing really to say about this drawing. I remember seeing a lot of fur hats this past winter...

Smoking is bad for you.

Another illustrator drawing, this one's a little fancier...

Leather is hard to draw.

Apologies loyal followers for the weekend ugly girl drought, 'twas out of town. Let Ugly Girl 6 soothe your worries with her effervescence.

Switching it up a little: illustrator drawing

Ugly Girl 4


She didn't turn out as ugly as I had hoped. I think she'd be uglier without the fake lashes and cool glasses (which are supposed to be tortoise shell but I guess that doesn't read very well). Modern science wins again.

Ugly Girl 3






It's surprisingly hard to draw an ugly girl without relying on unibrows and bad teeth. Cartoon people already have exaggerated features, so the range of attractiveness is broader in cartoons than it is in real life.

Ugly Girl 2



Surprise gentle imaginary readers! Another ugly girl, to make up for the fact that I was supposed to start posting these last week (there was no way you could have known!).


My poor imaginary readers... so gentle... so kept in the dark...

Ugly Girl 1


Hello imaginary audience! This is my first ugly girl! Don't expect every ugly girl to be so extravagant, coloring takes a lot of time. The purpose of this exercise is to churn out drawings, so most of the girls will be sketches.

Side benefit of this project: finding the names for the things that girls wear. Liquid leggings? Crazy.
