FIRST! :)
I think I'll keep it simple for a first blog entry, talk about my sub a little, show you some sketches and character closeups.
My first design is a pun on the "arrow-to-the-knee" meme. If you're not a youtuber or haven't played Skyrim, you haven't met this statement: "I used to be an adventurer but then I took an arrow to the knee". Not much of a fan to memes, but I thought this would be funny enough for people to enjoy :)
The curse of the dreaded arrowed knee! Can't be yourself after that...

Thanks for the feedback agrimony! I'm totally with you, was a little iffy picking the topic but I figure one can't go that wrong with controversy :)
About placement, I'm tried my best.. Be easy!

The strongest thing about this is your illustrations. I like your style and the way you created these different characters. You obviously put a lot of thought into each of them...for example the sea monster with the speargun dart through his leg. And the poses you created really communicate the pain of waiting in line for unenployment. I like the mummy the best. If I were going to criticize your design, the only thing I might say is that there could be more happening than might be necessary. For example, ONE (or two) of these guys standing in front of the door could possibly communicate your concept just as well as six of them, and you could use that space to enhance your illustration and "flesh out" the character(s) and give him/them more reality. The arrow pattern on the bottom of the design looks to me like an afterthought, and I don't think you need it, I think your design works fine without it.
