My Grungy Valentine

I’m not what anyone would call a romantic, what with my commitment issues and aversion to all things mushy. I’ve also never done a grungy illustration before. Therefore I thought it would be a good exercise to try to create a cute and goofy Valentine using a slightly grungy style that hopefully a non-romantic wouldn’t find too repulsive. Here’s what I came up with:

Robots have hearts, too.

His name is Rob, and he’s in love with a fellow robot named Brenda. He fashioned that Valentine himself out of an old refrigerator door. He’s hopeful that Brenda will like it and that they will have many little robot children and live happily ever after. The end.

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone!

    • I always send out Valentine’s on Vday. This year, I bought Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Be sure to turtlize it on Valentine’s day!

    • I’m not a romantic either, but I like having a chance to give other people stuff that’ll make them happy. Rob is so cute, he made my night! (Still not VDay where I am yet…) He’s just not too cutesy.

    • I hope Rob and Brenda get together today! If I were Brenda the robot, I would go out with him!

    • Nicely done! I always go by the view that V-day isn’t just for lovers/partners…it’s for everyone that you love. :)

    • I think it’s one of the cutest VDay items I’ve ever seen.
      I think Rob’s odds are good to get Brenda too.

      I think Rob would have a lovely VD card. Don’t you think? Have you thought of commercializing it?

    • Oh…there were too many “I think-s” in that last message…

      Have a nice day :-) “I think…” :-p

    • Can the robot prefer me to Brenda please? It’s more attractive than half the people I know…

    • Well, I gotta say that although it does have grunge appeal, it is completely and totally … dare I say it … CUTE and mooooshy.

    • I love it! I love robots (er, the non-spamming kind!).

      Your illustration makes me hate Valentine’s Day a little bit less! It’s just too darn cute!!!

    • That’s (once again) an amazing drawing. I wish I could draw like that. For my birthday I got a drawing board so I’m practicing although it will take a long time before I’m anywhere near as good as you are, if I ever will be!

    • That looks really nice (and no surprise there either)! I’m not really the type of person who celebrates Valentine’s Day. It was just like another day for me, hehe.

    • Hey. Finally, I found your site. I thought you are still using the katygirl site. By the way, are you going to attend the graduation rites.

    • Hi. I’m a first time visitor and I just spent about twenty minutes browsing your site. I feel compelled to tell you, as I’m sure many others have before, that you are quite talented. Your illustrations are digital art are amazing. Your site is also entertaining and your blog is interesting. I have now added you to my blogroll and I shall become a regular visitor. A regular commenter, I cannot say (mainly because I don’t like to force them), but a visitor nonetheless.
