Work I did I can't show yet anyhow, but it's nothing I will ever brag about, either money wise or quality of craft wise.
Anyhow, while doing it I remembered for a hundredth time my old friend, and his "shit pie" theory.
Friend's name was Pasaga, and he may or may not have been killed some time in 1994.
Aanyhow, he always claimed how it's impossible to make a shit pie. Even if you did make it, no one would eat it.
I remember him often when I do commissions, as with each one I prove him wrong.
I've made many a shit pie, and I've seen clients gulp them down, and even give me a pat on the back for my culinarry skills.
By a shit pie I mean my commissioned work, which is usually done with me desperately trying to prevent my lunch from leaving my body the same way it got into it while doing it.
Anyhow, in my spare time today I was also going through my old CD backups from the days long gone (which, btw, are never properly labelled, if at all) and I found a few gems I did years ago.
If I could only see them then the way I see them now, I would have quit this misery long time ago, and got far in my bus driver career.
Anyhow, here's some old and some new crap.
Sorry.
Cheers to all,
Regards,
Milenko

Hi guys. Thank you for the kind words.
I know what you are saying, but (I guess because I have to live with what I have done) let's agree that my art, at least, has a BO. :)
Viktor, i wish I could make it to SD. This year I am visiting my family in the old country at the time of comicon. Hopefully, next year I might make it over there.
I hope you will have a good time. With your hot looks and awesome art you will definitely turn a head or few over there.
By the next year i hope to have some scrappy sketchbook printed and I hope I sell some to cover the cost :)
Also, about the drawings, couple in the car are Harold and Beatrice, characters from the old flash cartoon i did some six years ago for Adam Sandler's never to be website/ business venture.
Epp page is an old joke,never to be a cover for a comic album I published with a friend back in europe years ago. he's one on the left, and I am one on the right in the illo.
On a non related topic, as the life keeps proving to be shit to me, lately I started getting pretty tough cramps in my drawing hand. I hope it's temporary and that all will be good soon.
At this stage with all the other fucked up health issues that started dribbling in lately, to put it plainly, I have no more shit left to crap my pants about anything.
So that (and everything else) will just have to go away- or not I do not really care.
Anyhow, thank you all for stopping by,
Regards,
Milenko
I've always said it: you're too strict with yourself.
I think your art is just amazing and I really like your style.
Don't give up!;)
Thanks for the comment on my blog! Your comments are greatly appreciated.
And great stuff! Really solid. I especially like the colour one of the man and woman in the car.
well, too bad. I hope you can make it next year. I am also going back to the Balkans this August (leaving on the 7th), may be we can get a drink somewhere there.
cheers,
viktor k.
This is real shit!
nOT! I stick my tongue out at you! hahahaha!
like Freaks, Magicians, and Fortune Tellers the best.
ma daj, zasto shit?? Ja mislim da super izgledaju! Svaka ima svoju foru, svoj karakter...naravno, druga je prica ako bi ti radije da si crtao nesto drugo u to vreme...meni su super ovi matorci u kolima, potpuno je jasno da mu ona kenja ceo zivot (mozda i pravi shit pie), a poster za frikove mi je takodje omiljen :D Nadam se da ce te brzo proci ti zdravstveni problemi, ili da ces ih barem zauzdati tako da te ne ometaju u crtanju ;)
Puno poz,
B
I hope you get well soon! I enjoy all your crap and shit a lot! And, though i have no time to update my own blog I get into yours nearly every hour hoping there's new stuff in here to save the day.
regards,
Oscar
Great stuff on your blog!Love it!:o)
hats off to Milenko! he has saved us from mediocrity with his insancritty... take me home momma I have seen the light bulb!
It's interesting to see some earlier work from you. I can certainly see an improvement and a refining of style, but I hardly think this is anything to be embarassed about. To be truly embarassed, you should see some of my early work... talk about $#!t pie!!!
Too bad about SDCC, would be cool to meet you in person. Have a nice trip to the old country!
To hell with the sh!t pie theory. Years ago (I'm going to guess it was around 1995) there was some idiot putting his crap in a can, sealing it, signing it, and then selling it as fine art. The bastard was selling his canned sh!t for ten grand! Did you hear what I said -- $10,000.00 dollars. And nobody was around to art direct him when he was making his "art."
I had just gotten a commission around the same time for the same amount. With the exception that I had to work an entire month, pulling late nights, just to get it done.
This stuff is great. Amazing skills!
