:: go go popitos ::

i got asked to do a show flyer for some bands in Barcelona. I've been working out this image of a dinosaur punk kid in school daydreaming about the show. i've got the toughest bit done...but they'd wanted it for monday. i'm thinking i'm going to have to call it a night soon though and hopefully i can give it to them monday night.

anyway here's what i've got so far:



it came out looking a bit like a teenage savage dragon, but salright i spose.



my capacity to do work for free is dwindling. i had a really hard time scheduling this in and ended up only getting the character done and handing it off to them to turn into a real poster. i don't know if they even used it in the end.

it takes so long for me to get a drawing done these days. kinda lame. i've been pretty scattered but i'm going to try to focus more energy on drawing.

i always feel like i have some "free freelance" or favor hanging over my head. working on cleaning house so i can do my own things again and not feel guilty.

oh hey! i DID do something recently! the weekend before newyears i helped dan forgione out with a commercial! i did the character design!

i think this is the first time i've designed characters that someone else has animated. pretty neat! he did a great job too!

so the only drawing i've done lately has been some boards and freelance over the break for work and freelance, but there's more pictures up of girls in spain wearing my t shirt so i figured i'd post THOSE! haha!




i'll be doing a show flyer soon for a few bands...in barcelona. that's right, i get asked to do more illustration work by people in other countries than in nyc. go figure.

new stuff coming soon! fully moved back in to brooklyn/greenpoint and getting back in the swing of things.

also i have a new phone number [which means i need to draw a new trading card!] so if you need it please email: tomsmo@gmail.com
