On Mustaches

Continuing this week of records with another Prescription Strength Hugs release! These are songs that didn't make an EP for one reason or another, usually tone problems or whackiness. You can check out the mounting collection of my tunes at the Bandcamp page!

Bliizzard

I’ve developed a new system for numbering severe winter storms.  It is very logical and looks pretty awesome.  Going out on a limb here and pre-calling tonight’s snow the second winter’s blizzard. With my system you can give every storm the non-anonymous respect it deserves.  I hope there is The Bliiizzard later this winter.

Working on some illustrations for a site redesign - rotating banner style. Hoping these will liven up the brand and make it a bit more personable. This one is about thinking, reading spread sheets, and weighing the pros and cons before commenting. You can't see it, but that spread sheet goes to next week.

Season 3 Episode 7 in which a quadruple amputee uses astral projection... to kill.

This is part of an ongoing project to catalogue the villains from the television series X Files. Check out the others here!

Good good, Good bad, Bad bad: Daybreakers

I watch a fair amount of movies.  Most of them are bad movies.  This is just something I do.  This segment is devoted to all the movies I view.  Last night I watched Daybreakers in which Willem Dafoe is cured of vampirism after being launched from a wrecking car, catching on fire from the sun’s rays and being extinguished moments later in a dirty waterway…  It does get pretty gruesome at the end.  Overall, this qualifies as a “Good bad” movie.  It was pretty easy making Ethan Hawke look freakish; the hard part was making Willem Dafoe look remotely human.

A sad ending to the Orioles 2012 season... But hey! How about some new birds? I know the money ain't flowing into the organization, but could we get some better mascots? I'm willing to design them - call me, O's (think about that middle chill dude just hanging on the third base line).

Catch you next season. For now, Go Tigers?

Beautiful morning here in NYC. Some more poster work for the inimitable DJ Lani Love. Went for a dot instead of my (what's slowly becoming trademark) loose stipple patterning.

In serious need of inking practice, I took the opportunity to draw Patrick Hosmer's Sad Ninja. Grays added digitally.

Is that Scarface?

It should be known that I occasionally play video games, and with winter coming, several activities see a significant boost in activity, namely: cooking, eating, sitting, and video gaming. I’m way behind on games and decided not to try to play anything too new until I catch up. I had a copy of Red Dead Redemption at my house, so I popped that in, knowing full well that I don’t care for many Rockstar (game studio, not quality of game) games or how awfully they treat their hardworking development teams (after the completion of at least 2 games I know of, Rockstar decided to fire the entire team before bonuses and profit-sharing kicked in. Classy). Anyway, I played some of this mostly janky, un-amusing game to find that the only real plus is the horse physics. Horse riding is excellent which is good, because you will be doing it for hours and hours. Won’t last too much longer on this one, especially since the now 7-year-old Resident Evil 4 has been released on Xbox 360. So much video game jargon in this post, I apologize, but also, expect more.

During my time in the wild west, I think I met Tony Montana. Image captured offscreen from Red Dead Redemption - then cleaned up, colored, texted and all around prettied up.
