Bezeus Calendar
Our friend Noah has made a 2006 Calendar featuring his Bezeus And Friends characters parodying fine art pieces. Some (most? all?) of his characters are based on his friends, or on characters that they play. Mouse Beard Fred, for example, is a character I created in a one-man improv show some time ago, and Weensie is based on Erica's Cutie Bumblesnatch. So the July image, above on the left, is Mouse Beard Fred (and a barely visible Weensie) replicating Goya's The Colossus (above, right). The whole thing took Noah longer than I think he thought it would, because he really painted all the paintings -- no easy Photoshop work here (hey Noah, why no easy Photoshop work?). So treat yourself to a hand-crafted calendar this year.
Oooh, and if you want to have a odd version of me-as-a-character peer out at you from your bumper or chest or coffee mug, why all of those are available, too.

Damn, Noah is crazy talented.
I can't find any pictures of this supposed "Weensie" character, is it in the calendar somewhere? Helloise looks a bit like Cutie Bumblesnatch with glasses.

Weensie is on the Colossus page (July), clawing her way over the horizon (middle left of the picture). But I guess she hasn't made it into any of the Bezeus strips yet, which isn't surprising since there are only 11 of them so far. But you can definitely tell Weensie is Cutie -- she wears the rainbow vest and a pink tutu.

Here is a better picture of Weensie, who will make her Bezeus and Friends Debut alongside of Fred on December 8th.

the Helloise character is played by The Beatbox's MC Venom, Emily Dugan.
