“Based on at least real gibberish, if not actual events.”
An underground comic from the trenches of the service industry — waiters Uno, Dewey & Tom, a chef of mad science, and a small sentient coffee cup who keeps learning things he shouldn't. Sketched in pencil on toned paper, colored the 1950s way. Words with Kochanowski & Co.

Walk between the tables. Read the episodes hanging on the walls. Poke the jukebox, peek into the kitchen, and mind the coffee cup — he's learned to use a fork.
Built as a walkable 3D diner, one room, no waiting.
Walk in →Turnarounds, gesture, and construction — characters built to be believed, from space outlaws to road crews to golems with trees for spines.
ZBrush sculpture and game-ready character work — boxers, dragons, and test subjects that survived the lab.
Commercial illustration that keeps its character — brand mascots with big personalities and gig posters with vintage bones.
William A. Williams III is a digital artist based in Cincinnati, Ohio — a character designer, illustrator, and 3D modeler with a professional background in graphic design, retouching, and pre-press. His work starts the old way: pencil, toned paper, construction lines — and ends wherever the character needs to live: a comic panel, a sculpt, a poster, a game.
The style owes a debt to the 1950s funny pages — big hollow eyes, honest hands, characters that act with their whole bodies — filtered through restaurant kitchens, metal albums, and a stubborn belief that drawing well still matters.
Come for the coffee. Stay because the cup is talking to you.
