while everyone was at SDCCâ€¦

Filed Under Array

…i sat at home depressed i was sitting at home.

well, not entirely. i did stay pretty busy. first off, me and all of the lunchbox funnies guys were asked to provide some guest strips for scott kurtz of pvp fame. and because we at lunchbox all think scott is a super great guy, most of us said yes (that and the promise of increased traffic to our sites is always a good bribe). click here to read mine!

also- i worked on the parable site a bit. the book is completely done, so i thought a little revamp of the site would be nice while we scout for publishers. especially since i won’t have much to update on it till we actually have one.

also- i added my current seed blog comic panels to comicspace in an effort to get more use out of a great community that i rarely ever visit (but should!). once i get around to drawing more of those, i’ll update them on there as well as here.

also- i started playing zelda: twilight princess on wii finally! and it was so worth the wait.

also- i saw the simpsons on friday and thought it was hillarious. and before going to the theater i simpsonized myself!

jen and i are seeing travis tonight in orlando. before the concert we’re going to try to visit one of those 7-elevens they turned into kwik-e-marts.

July = Tee design month?

Filed Under Array

I’m really glad to have the new site up and running. Updating the site is a lot easier when I’m happy with how it looks (not to mention that it functions perfectly, which is always a plus).

I had planned to do another video blog, but I got two great contracts a few days after my last update. I was invited to do a Threadless Select shirt and I had an offer to do a shirt for Oddica. Both of these were cool in that I got to dictate the subject matter and do my own thing. Oddica offered some poignant art direction and made the whole thing much better, too. I love when the people I’m working with get my concept and I’m happier when they have input that makes it better.

If you haven’t been to Oddica, go. Just the other day, as I got a vegan hummus wrap from my daily lunch stop, the employee behind the counter offered me a free sandwich, ’cause, “You always come in with the coolest shirts. You can have my daily sandwich.” He broke his jaw not long before and couldn’t eat it anyway. Protein shakes and soup, for him, I guess. Ouch.

However, Oddica = free lunch. You can’t beat that with a stick.

I’m usually a black pocket-tee sorta guy, but one of the advantages of doing a lot of tee designs this past year has been the freebies. I haven’t bought a shirt in about six months. Well, except for a few Herbivore items, but I’m doing work for them now, too. The magazine/shop is for a cause I believe in, and I offered to do some stuff pro bono, but they insisted I at least take store credit. That’s fine with me. They have a bunch of awesome vegan cookbooks and gear. I’m eying my recycled bicycle inner-tube belt as I type this. Really rad.

Anyhow, I wanted to post some progress shots for the Threadless Select shirt, which was the first thing on my daunting list of freelance.

Ninja Show 2

Filed Under Array

Some of you may think, what the heck does it mean? Well, this was my favorite childhood tv show, Batoru Fiba J. It’s similar to Power Rangers, except it was the first one. Traditionally every year in Japan a new Power Ranger-esque tv show replaces the previous show. BFJ was ground-breaking in that it was the first of it’s kind to include a giant robot.
So, in honor of BFJ I’ve done 2 pieces of art that will be presented on Aug. 11 at the Ninja Show 2 at Gallery Nucleus. Sorry no spoilers. See you there!
