Over ten years ago I drew the first/pilot page of a comic I used to draw called Cracked Actor. It was drawn on mixed media sketchbook paper in pencil, manga ink pens, and prisms color colored pencils. The premise being all of David’s personas living together under the same roof and all the shenanigans they’d get up to together. It was a very well liked comic in the Bowie Fandoms on DeviantART and Tumblr, and even inspired fans of it to draw and submit their own pages. What fun!
I’ve been reminiscing on the goofball one-shot styles and while reading back through the old pages, I had the chance to see just how far my art and knowledge of pacing and storytelling in a comic page have come, and decided to redraw the first page to give myself a chance to truly compare them. It’s been so much fun returning to these guys and getting to explore their personalities again. I’m incredibly pleased with how evident my progress is between the two pages.
I’ve posted the original beside the new one. I think the pacing of the new page definitely works better, and love that this gives all of their personalities a chance to shine too. I even ended up having more ideas for other pages while drawing this, so possibly stay tuned for more Cracked Actor!
Happy Bowiemas all!
It's about time we check in on the guys, whattaya say?
we're doing some things a little differently this time around. No more one-shots for this section. This is gonna be a nice long one with lots of good story stuff for you guys!
Featuring the first of the new characters: Buttoneyes! David described him as a blind oracle, so here he is, doing this thing. And Major Tom is pretty over his shit
I'm going to have at least one page done per week, but some weeks might have more if i'm feeling heckin inspired or have easier pages to draw and color :)
Blackstar (alternate ending)
I honestly forgot that some people might not know what this is. So ten years ago (give or take a few months), when I first really started getting into Bowie, I started doodling a comic. The synopsis was a sitcom-ish story about all of David Bowie’s personas living under the same roof, with David himself being the reluctant guardian/parent figure in charge. It was told in a series of one-shot jokes and my early pages were drawn in messy Crayola twistable colored pencils on sketchbook paper. I called it Cracked Actor after the song from the Aladdin Sane album. Here’s the first page:
Surprisingly, they were very well recieved! So naturally, I made more!
And to my absolute delight and surprise, so did other people! Other members of the DeviantART Bowie fandom started making their own and soon we had a whole group dedicated to the story, sharing the hijinks of the crew and making each other laugh. Here are a few of my favorite pages from @alyway221 and @iviesaur as well as another DA user called OwlishMystic.
Soon we had contests and holiday specials, all sorts of fun events to keep us writing! My art started to steadily improve as did my page quality
And all around, some of my best memories in the fandom came from working on this comic.
But then, David died. I dropped into a super deep depression, and stopped working on a lot of Bowie related works. I absolutely abandoned the comic and threw it into a long hiatus. Despite this, new members continued to add pages, but it was nothing like the amount we once had.
As I grieved, I started working on my art. I found things in my comics and in my skills that needed to improve. I also had to work on some big obstacles that came up between then and now that have changed parts of me in a maturing kind of way. My grandmother died and I’ve been helping my mother grieve her while having to process not only that death, but also the death of the dog I’ve had since I was five. I changed jobs. Got my first big comic industry gig (I’m a professional colorist here and there now). I’ve taken time to develop and delve into backstories and personalities of some of my favorite Bowie personas. Some were already built and I was exploring them, as I had to do with Jareth while learning to act as him for cosplay and paid performing. Others I did for fun, as I’ve been doing on @i-am-ziggy-stardust with Zigzag. So it finally feels right to return to this story. Especially since David left some new characters to add in. Hey, Buttoneyes. I see you there. But unlike the previous pages, this isn’t going to be a one-shot joke-per-page deal. Nah, I’ve got a fully fleshed out story for you guys. We’re talking CHAPTERS. I’m posting at least one a week, and it’s fun to return to this household. Check in on some of the characters I missed, like Major Tom here. He’s gonna get some cool stuff. Now that David’s gone, I’m not going to bring him back to life because I feel like that would be disrespectful in a way. But these guys are going to have to deal with that loss too. He was the patriarch of their group. Now there’s an empty spot there. This new set will deal with loss, change, and through and through: it deals with family and friendship. I think you guys will really enjoy what I have planned.
All the young dudes 👄⚡💜👁️👁️🎨🎭🇬🇧

Cracked Actor Christmas Special- Decking the Halls
I’m really pleased with the way the details have shown through in the finished piece.
The only references I had were a few black and white photos of David from the early 70s and my own christmas tree/decorations! (you guys would not believe how many times I had to go stand in front of my tree in a maroon sweater to get the lighting right! XD)

Announcing the very first David Bowie Coloring Book Coloring Contest!
We have some lineart here of David Bowie posing for his famous Aladdin Sane cover. BUT WAIT?! where’s the lightning bolt?!
AHA! NOW SEE THIS IS WHERE IT GETS INTERESTING!!!
We want to see what you can design! We have provided an example of an Aladdin Sane sans lightning bolt design above, but you are limited only by your imagination!
RULES:
You may use a lightning bolt as the base of your design, HOWEVER! You may NOT color it like the one on the left (the original coloring) or a recoloring of the lightning bolt itself (yellow and green, for example)
You may use whichever medium you like. Crayon was just what was used to color the examples because it is what was on hand at the time.
you may add props, backgrounds, or extra features (such as longer hair, open eyes or a tongue poking out)
All submissions must be marked as contest entries like this: Your Name (optional) Tumblr URL Coloring Contest #1 title of your entry
You may enter as many times as you want
There must be entries from at least five different applicants for the contest to count
All entries must be in by December 30th, 2013. Scoring will take place the following day.
Entries must be submitted one at a time. We cannot process entries that contain two or more pictures
David’s face MUST be visible. You are not allowed to pull a beatles and put an apple in front of it. You can obscure parts of it, but not all of it. (and for you smart asses out there, I don’t mean the tip of his nose or the corner of his jaw. You know what I mean)
Keep it somewhat family friendly. Blog rules apply (http://davidbowiecoloringbook.tumblr.com/post/53437431248/for-those-interested-in-contributing-lineart-to-the)
HAVE FUN!
Please direct any questions to the ask box of the David Bowie Coloring Book.
We can’t wait to see what you create!

I wanted to go with a more Twilight Zone feel on this one, so that’s why it looks more…painted.
That’s my version of an Aresian (aka Martian (ares=mars)) on Ziggy
and I know that Tommy comes from Anthea, but I wanted to throw ALL the aliens in this!
Poor Major Tom…
Frankenbowie! The story of a deranged artist who once studied the permanence of death has set his sights on giving it life! With the help of a scientist who has mastered and harnessed the power of electricity, they bring forth, THE SCARY MONSTER!
stay tuned for the next Night of the Super Creeps special! Brought to you by Cracked Actor

all kidding aside, this was a lot of fun. I felt like such a clever little shit when i devised the cast. I’ll admit, I gave an evil laugh. Julian fought with me the whole time. He apparently did NOT want to be colored! XD Telsa was like “that’s cool, just don’t make me look like Gomez Adams”, which I did three or four times before the final product.
Anywho, I’m getting started on the next one, so stay tuned!
FINISHED! BOO!
It’s that time of year again! And this time we’re celebrating it Cracked Actor style! This year the boys have some uber spooky and delightful to share with the rest of you, and we’re all hoping to scare your socks off! We feature some of the more popular cracked actor cast, and a new member as well (although his makeup might make him look creepy!). We’d like to introduce Cracked Actor’s newest cast member, Reality!
