Artist Name: Eric Bradbury
Title of Comic: Cheetos vs. Fritos
Date Completed: 7/23/06

Describe your story and characters:  How did you come up with this idea?  What are you trying to communicate to your readers?
My original idea was “God and the Cheeto,” God being regular old God, not a dorito. Then I was thinking about Metal Gear Solid, and I decided to combine the ideas. I also thought about Austin Powers, it gave me the Dr. Emo idea. I thought about “A big black guy named Ben,” but “A big orange guy named Barney” made it. Neither did “Clown Head,” “Wizz3rd,” or “Shiny.” The comic(s) I have include the ideas I could pack in, nothing more.

Does your comic evoke a certain feeling? 
Yes, humor. This comic has only false seriousness.

What materials & techniques did you use to make your comic? 
I used Adobe Photoshop CS2, instruction, and hand-drawn boxes and bubbles.

Is this a successful comic?  Is there anything you would change or improve?
I would like to improve the inking and color quality of my comic, but I can’t fix that much.

What did you learn?
I learned how to make perfect speech bubbles, how to draw straight lines in PSCS2, and how to adjust the DPI and other settings also in PSCS2.

Other comments about your creative process:
What more can I say? I worked hard on this comic; if I ever get a scanner I can ink and color my drawings and other comics.
