:: goats freak me out ::

soon to be a t-shirt...



cleanup!



i drew this before playing a show at a christian skate park outside minneapolis...



and this is from the day before:



i'm working up something for comic con...let's see if i can pull it off...

did i mention i made it to alaska and am now back in new york state...because i totally did!!!

:: "in lieu of recent events" or "i am the day of current taste" ::

at the IFC theater here in new york i recently saw "the future is unwritten," a documentary on clash frontman joe sturmmer. it was fantastic, i highly recommend!

then this past weekend i needed to take a break form pale force for a bit so i did some sketching and watched a documentary called "tales of the rat fink," about ed "big daddy" roth [the creator of ratfink, the printed t-shirt, and had a huge influence on design and art in general, in awesome ways...]

also i now own a scooter!

so this is me combining all these elements. that's not my scooter though, that's totally a lambretta, i have a vespa! haha!

i have this theory that the whole driving feeling of the motorheads and their hotrods could totally be applied to scooters. lots of scooters are old and need a lotta work and maintenance [like mine...yowza!], it'd be sweet to soup em up. and it's not all mods vs. rockers anymore. i feel like scooters and the rockabilly world can totally get along.

so this is my rudefink, my contribution to said cause.

maybe i should paint this, it'd be kinda fun.

i have another animationy project in the works too right now, i'll post that soon.

:: were-sketch ::

another quick sketch because i don't put time into anything! wink wink!

:: business ::

ORDERED!!!

bill robinson stand up guy that he is, just saved me about fifty bucks by pointing me to this website:

now lets just hope that these puppies get shipped to my classy hotel in san diego, i'll have to ask the concierge when i get in, but i called ahead so i should be fine!*

*to be read: the front desk at the motel 6...

:: monsters ::

drew these after watching dragon's lair clips. and afterward realized i gave them both the same line of action.

where have we seen that dinosaur before...but..younger?

:: foodswings ::

i promised i'd make a flyer for the foodswings third anniversary party...but getting sick put me way behind schedule! i've got things started though. i decided to turn nutty merlin into a vegan necromancer! here's some progress:



progress: 3/14/07


progress: 3/15/07



flash crash yesterday and i lost a day's worth of work. been savin a lot today, and got it back to where it was. it's always hard for me to get back to something when i know i'm just doing repeat work! is this working?

also my forum is goin! but my getting sick really set me back. it's got me pretty frustrated. i should probably start looking for work too. lame.

:: crab dragoon ::

i got an apartment in greenpoint where i can have a separate studio room! it's a railroad so it might suck for my roommate...OH WELL!

i celebrated by eating tortellini, accidentally taking a nap while watching pee wee's playhouse, and drawing this picture as mu330 came on when i was working on PF. good day!

:: were ::

there's more to this drawing...but it's such a bad joke i didn't finish it...i have a lot more stuff on paper these days, but i'm going to try and start pulling a few again to make flashy since i have no scanner!

:: nutty merlin ::

this is the ice cream i eat!

:: Scylla ::

i was doing some poster designs fo the jolly ship again, and i did some designs on Scylla & Charybdis. i think i have to revamp my entire idea though so i wanted to post some sketches on scylla...well at least her dog head model. i've been doing a lot of sketchbook work lately, and i need to do more because i don't feel like i'm progressing enough! ACK!

:: whiz-bang ::

this is my finalized poster design for Jolly Ship the Whiz-Bang's show at Galapoagos next friday. I'm going to do a color version for kicks too, but I want them to use the black and white one! YARR!!!

:: jstwb ::

went back and colored the sucker!





here's a concept i was going to use for a flyer but i abandoned it, maybe it'll pop up somewhere else!

here's what i actually used for this show:

:: literary debacle ::

i got sentimental and didn't add the sword sticking out of his neck...perhaps later... i like this design a lot! its a disney homage, i didn't look at any disney drawings, jsut a photo of a croc, but still it's got a disney feel i think, and the colors are similar to black cauldron's dragons. wheeee!

[this was my drawing for this weeks , literary debacle check it out!]
