Steph is a 2011 graduate of Gettysburg College (majored in history, minored in Civil War Era studies) and current graduate student at Pratt Institute (library science with a focus in Archival Studies) who loves baseball, anime, writing, drawing, Rogue Squadron, cars (and Top Gear), comedy (especially its history and, naturally, the British variety) and her cats and Old English Sheepdogs. Fond of Stanford even though she doesn't go there. Has Asperger's syndrome, a mild form of autism. Created the 30-Day Baseball Meme. One time she made a music video about Buster Keaton's love affair with trains. Since she's an archivist-in-training, she often preserves things on her own. See her scans here.
Author of the webcomic The Historians, the excuse to draw dead comedians called Comedian Heaven, and Londinium, a novel in the making set in 1863 London. Scriptwriter for the webcomic Home By Now, a story about time travel, music, history and general hijinks (meet the incredible artist here!).
Very occasionally posts about herself when she's not posting about baseball, dead people, Top Gear or her pets.
stop the presses I drew a goddamned airplane
I have to draw this today for the splash page of the next Historians chapter. Actually, this plane is going to appear a lot.
I cannot draw airplanes.
This is going to be interesting.
Remember how on Friday I said I had another drawing on the way? This is it, finally. I haven’t gotten a chance to do art for a couple of days.
The Our Gang kids in here are, L-R, Stymie, Buckwheat, Spanky, Alfalfa and Darla. For some reason, before Stymie graduated Hal Roach decided that Buckwheat should be a girl (Stymie’s little sister) even though the actor playing him was a boy. When Stymie ‘graduated,’ Buckwheat slowly transformed into a boy.
Hal Roach was a strange, strange man.
Anyways, I drew Buckwheat as a boy even though Stymie’s there since it’s quite difficult to find pictures of him as a girl. Also, babysitting a bunch of child actors is difficult when between the two of you you’ve only got one daughter. (Lois is THE CUTEST, though.)
I’m going to be working on catching up with ask blogs this week (particularly Ask Rogue/Wraith Squadron and Ask Junta), so go ahead and ask these idiots things too!
The cast listing is here.
I will never not reblog this, because it just gives me so many feels.
aww.
damn…
what do you mean drawn better thats the best fucking stickman ive ever seen fuck you
If my characters were sentient and saw me as ‘Mom,’ I’d be sobbing all the time and constantly telling them how proud I am of them.

Tried something different and made this sketchier and more cartoony than my usual style just for fun.
This is actually my half of an art trade with a friend from dA, but I had to share it here too because COMEDIANS.
I think Zeppo, Gummo, Shemp and Curly Joe went out to dinner somewhere to avoid this or something.
Two art trades!
The first one is a sketch trade with prancingharry - that’s her cast, and they’re adorable! (A sketch trade is like an art trade except you just do a bunch of sketches of each other’s characters instead of just one detailed drawing.)
The second one is Ren, who belongs to Peeka! Isn’t he cute?
Anyone else who wants to do one is welcome to, by the way!
They don’t take very long and I can get them done very quickly, so you wouldn’t have to plonk more than $2-$3 into my PayPal account if you want one. Just tell me what you’d like and drop a few bucks here and I’ll get to work!
I turned this into my avatar because I really love Stannie a lot so yeah.
Do you ever draw Harpo throwing a Gookie? :D
As requested!
Once I color and scan this tomorrow, it’ll be my new Tumblr icon.
Stannie cocking a snook because he’s adorable.
I really like drawing my friends’ characters. It’s actually one of my favorite things in the whole world.
CH UPDATED AND THERE IS A ‘DOUBLE ACTS ARE LIKE MARRIED COUPLES’ JOKE OKAY BYE
Also, I still suck at paneling.
