I do Hourly Comics Day just about every year, largely because I really like journal comics and getting a glimpse into someone else's life for a while. It seems to be steadily migrating from the Hourly Comics Day forums to Tumblr, which I'm kind of sad about because it's much more difficult to see everyone's work on Tumblr. It's the most disorganized place on the planet.
So this year for Hourly Comics Day I actually caved in and created a Tumblr blog. I just toss random sketches on there for now, and the hourly comics. You can follow me there if you like, or wait until I post a sketch-dump here, probably at the end of the month. I guess I really do need a place to post random cruft and Tumblr does seem ideal for that.
Anyway. Hourly Comics Day! Every year a bunch of comic artists make one journal comic (or panel) for every hour that they are awake on February 1st. When you read them, you get snapshots of people's lives in different parts of the world, all on the same day. Since we're mostly comic artists, the snapshots don't differ all THAT much but it's kind of interesting anyway.
Here is the one I did for 2014:

This year February 1st was pretty busy, as I went to the Urban Sketchers sketch-out and a party. I didn't have much time to draw on that day, and soon after I got sick so everything was shifted over by one or two weeks. However, it was worth it, getting to draw some friends for a change.
