Was that the ugly ginger hair girl he used to draw himself with?

It seems like if you were going to draw your partner, you would make them attractive.

Yep, that was her. The weird thing is, the real-life woman who tolerated Nookie Bear's presence for some time didn't look so bad - no Greek goddess, but she was kinda cute. Nookie Bear made her uglier when he cartoonified her. He probably was sub(?)consciously pissed that his gf wasn't a hot 10/10 playmate.

Holy fuck that's creepy.

We have a great German word for this face: Ohrfeigengesicht -- "bitchslap face" -- that is, a fat grinning annoying face you just want to slap.

Germans come up with the best words. I call this my schadenfreude site.

Edit: Okay yeah it was.

Either she was extremely homely, or Dobson was drawing her less attractive out of spite.

So his art skills left his lady no bottom jaw and looking a bit like one of marge Simpsons sister.

I do recall seeing a picture of her somewhere along with Dobsons art class buddies and this doesnt really do her much justice.

Maybe Dobsons one of those arsehole partners who gets off on putting their otherhalf down to keep them from realizing they can do much better.

Nah, he is more of the "Vollpfosten mit angeklebter Hackfresse" kind of guy.
Translation: "Dumbass with a shitface gluted to him"
(Literal Translation: "Full-post with a glued on mince-meat-face.")

 

[Rabbit Bones]

Jeeze, he did a pretty good job of burying her. I still don't know what her name is. But this woman he apparently loved enough to live with, was intimate with, and possibly even thought about marriage with... and this was how he drew her.

Meanwhile, he drew himself 50+ pounds slimmer and with hair.

Dobby is trash.

@DykesDykesChina and @Von Clausewitz

Thank you so much for this
Mrs MMX is a massive germanophile and now has two new insults she can hurl at me

That comic cant be a real indication of the sort of fun they had because it doesnt have his usual little smug dobbie saying "THIS REALLY HAPPENED" at the end

That strip is weird.

Dobby looks like a slow-in-the-mind and his girlfriend looks like a rapist.

She looks like a female hamster before it eats it young.

Dobson looks like he shat his pants and is aroused by it.

 

[JU 199]

.. and this was how he drew her.

He did a shit job.

I feel sorry for her. I wonder why she associated herself with him...

Maybe she was the Dobson version of CWCs wallflower or megan-lite.
That or maybe Dobson wasnt always such a king turd.....or was better at hiding it.

Dobson used to imagine himself younger and thinner during his reinvention

Of-course John was "based" on "someone Andrew knew".....some weeaboo with delusions of grandeur that no one liked, who was bullied and had a jewish girlfriend but was secretly super super good at art and just needed a little direction and bitch slapping to unlock his talent.....totally not Dobbie projecting


Insert John snow knowing nothing joke here

 

[Rabbit Bones]

Even if your girlfriend is ugly, you draw her with some redeeming features in a comic where you're presenting yourself as not morbidly obese and bald. He could have given her hair other than a fallen jew fro, or eyes that didn't blend in with her freckles. She hasn't got to be a 10, but those were the only two comics I could find with her, and she looks retarded in one and 11 in the other. He never even addresses her by her name in any of his journals... she's just "his girlfriend".

Dobsons girlfriend may not have been hot but Catty Nebulart was damn fine.

So, does this mean, we can hope for a comic where he gets stabbed by all his class mates, one after another?

Who then gets art slammed by Curmudgeonly Carl, who Dobbo wants to portray as a villain.

Dobson, John Snow and Jon Snow all had a thing for red heads.......makes you think.

I love that Dobson pretends he never heard of game of thrones and merely acknowledges that its quite popular but remains morally outraged by it.

Well, when you think about it, Ronnie Filjaw has a comic that's pretty much about himself being socially awkward or doing stupid things... And it's so fucking funny. Ronnie from the comics is such a likeable buffoon, you can't help but like him. I guess it has to do with Whomp being about situational humor a lot of people can somewhat relate to.
So yeah, it's possible to have a character representing yourself and still make him a loveable loser. You just have to do it very carefully and skillfully - and no matter what, always keep a certain distance between yourself as an artist and your depiction of yourself in a comic.

That's right! All that's required is for the artist to be capable of taking a step back and looking at himself dispassionately. Do that, and you can find all sorts of humour in how you responded to a given situation. Not that a man who delights in drawing cartoons of himself rejecting a facebook friend request from the school bully - decades after leaving school - would ever be capable of that.

Dobson already made some posts about how he won't take criticism from non-professional artists, but once people like Kazerad ripped him apart (and people started to make parodies of his work that surpassed his abilities by far) he was up inflation creek without a bikepump.

Yes, I read that! And though I've no idea who Kazerad is, I now have the deepest respect and admiration for him.

I love Whomp. Dobby could never make a comic like that. The Whomp guy has a sense of humor and can poke fun at himself, and at the subcultures he takes part in (the crazy cat man comics and the ones about anime spring to mind). In Dobbys mind, he's perfect. It's everyone else who is the issue. To my knowledge, Dobson has never made a comic where he's the butt of the joke, or where his hobbies and interests are presented as anything but the height of sophistication. It's boring. Even if it was well drawn and written, it's boring to see a character always have the perfect zinger or to always get the one up. The best comics are the ones where you cheer for the hero because there's always the worry that he might not succeed. With Dobby, that fear has been removed and you're just left with a badly drawn, masturbatory blue bear.

Ronnie is also willing to exaggerate his faults (In real life he's overweight but unlike his character he's also pretty tall) while Dobby is unwilling to admit any flaws and the last time someone said something critical about his self insert it became a blue bear.

He's really shooting himself in the foot by refusing to make fun of himself. I mean, it's when you look inside yourself and observe the thoughts and actions you're most familiar with - that is, your own - that you come up with the strongest, most perceptive humour!

I wonder if she's going to fuck the cat thing and the pirate midget with no limbs.

Give him time.

She looks like a female hamster before it eats it young.

I think I just ruptured myself with laughter.

He was into it for a little while when Wu said she was going to start watching it (He retweeted a legofied Game of Thrones intro but I don't think he actually watched the show), although soon after there was a rape scene (By a character who was known to have raped and murdered many women before) which upset the SJW's so that was the end of that for Wu (And by extension Dobby).
