This article is a follow up to yesterday's article, but before I start here is an enlarged version of the crap avatar I posted yesterday. It was rather on the small side and yes it is still crap, but it took longer to create than the tiger using AI. 

If you missed it you can read the article here.

Anyhow, to the point. Before my babies arrived (now aged 4 and a half and 18 months) when I had a bit more time I used to doodle on Microsoft Paint (which is becoming increasingly unwieldy - just leave it the **** alone Microsoft or roll it back about five years) and much of what I am going to show here is stuff that I originally posted on the now defunct Noise:Cash

So I am going to post some of the examples of my work with comments when relevant, but please remember my main point.

I am not an artist and what I am posting does not hold any artistic merit nor with it any intrinsic monetary value, although I know one friend who I know on here and Noise who is a fan of NFTs thought otherwise).

The Bad

Sometimes my doodles went completely wrong.

The terrible tiger - especially when compared to the AI one I produced yesterday.

The crocodile

The abandoned fox.

So far so bad and there are more, but I will spare you...

The Good

Sometimes I got it right and in some cases it was just a case of experimentation. For example it took me a while to figure out how to do a dolphin / orca and especially the flattened tail and for some reason you will see that I have a thing for sharks.

The first time I got the dolphin tail about right.

My take on a famous scene from Jaws.

While it is not totally right, I was really impressed with how I got the curvature of the shark right and created what could be called implied motion.

This was part of a complete sequence with the Orca hunting the shark,

I think they call it catatonic immobility - the shark is doomed!

The end for the poor shark. Again I was impressed by how I was able to subtly curve the dead shark's body. Please remember I was only using Microsoft Paint.

And one last one in this section. Is the cat smiling or is that it's chin. I know what I intended and it was only later when I realised the ambiguity of how i had drawn it.

The Memes

Sometimes I used my doodles to make a point that was relevant to what was going on the crypto-verse at that time.

A few memes from a past bear market (although the bear itself isn't that great!)

I think after sharks, elephants rapidly became an easy thing for me to draw.

Gizmo's three rules of crypto investment.

The Future of Finance - unbanking ourselves is the dream.

I called this one "Hunting Musk" after he manipulated Doge.

Another comment on the then bear market that was hitting us all...

And finally just for fun...

Nessie is real!

Just remember I am not an artist, nor do I make any claim to be, but if I were to mint these as NFTs it contradicts the truth we all know and it is much the same for most if not all NFTs.

Hope you have found it amusing. As always stay safe and well my friends.
