Buddyhead goes Japanese anime

buddyhead_by_ryu_no_joou.jpg

Someone just emailed me this link where someone has drawn a Japanese anime cartoon of Aaron (left) and myself (right) with the tag-line “When Shit Goes Fully Off, We’re There!”. I know it’s kind of lame to post shit about yourself… but fuck man, this is pretty fuckin’ funny and accurate (Aaron looks like a chick just like in real life). Below are the artist’s Comments

“:D I had to do this….

Aaron North and Travis Keller, the two “scruffy dudes” (their words) who are the record label Buddyhead. I had to draw them, they’re just so cute….

Hand-drawn and coloured. Text and the stolen Buddyhead logo were added in Gimpshop. *_* And I don’t care what DA says, my anime drawings do NOT need to be in “Portraits”. To me, portraits are realistic, not cartoony. What DA needs to do, seriously, is add a “celebrities” category to “Fan Art”. Problem solved. If this gets taken down, I’ll be mega-pissed.”

    travis, you’ve got to commission a buddyhead anime portrait from whoever did this:
    http://ninblogs.files.wordpress.com/2007/09/photo-761350-761392.jpg

    looks like they’ve already got aaron down pat, PLUS they’ll make you wayyy better looking.

    i’d shell out dough for a print.

    by the way, how’s that worksheet coming along?

  • Travis Keller

    There’s another one of those with me taking a photo actually….

    The worksheet was funny. Good one.

    We’re working on the best and worst list… it’ll be up soon. As will a new batch of gossip. Hold your breath.

  • db

    new gossip? remember when you used to post gossip more than twice a year? that was cool. i guess i’ll just hold my breath until i pass out and die.

  • dave texas

    now for the hentai version…

  • http://bptbtw.blogspot.com/ alex

    mr. texas… i’m sure it’s already been done.

    as for me holding my breath, isn’t wishing death upon me a little severe?! jesus.

  • LL

    Aaron is a future Michael Jackson in training.

  • Jordan

    Travis, when you say best and worst list, do you mean one for the music of 2007? Cause that would be awesome dude. I thought that was one of the best things on Buddyhead and I was bummed when you guys didn’t do it last year.

    Anyways, cool drawing.

    i just wonder what made this artist draw such hair of aaron`s! haha. you loook meeega cute,travis but aare i prefer this one from nin band cartoon, remember?

    besides you said that aaron looks like a chick here (as in real life,lol) and you… are you so cute in real life?? hmmmm ;)

  • alex

    holy shit this comment taken from that website rules:

    Ahhh, good idea! :D I wanted to draw Aaron and Travis together too, but I didn’t have very many pictures of him. Besides some X-mas one’s. :o ^^;

    Travis is adorable! :heart:
