Holy Crap! I have a BLOG! Wow, I sure do suck at this! I hope my whopping TWO followers don't get pissed!
Anywho.
Moving to Duluth Soon! WOO! Gonna be rad.
Here is a style study I did. One of my hero Illustrators, Jarafrica, has always wowed me to no end. I've always wanted his magical powers. I decided bite the bullet and out-rightly copy his shit in an effort to understand how his technique works. Kinda lame of me, but I learned a bunch. I ALSO learned that my scanner eats turds, and my cruddy little iDevice camera takes SIGNIFICANTLY better documentation pictures.
Check him out:

here's a digital collage I made for texture for an iOS app The app called FINGERBEAT. Great sampler/drumpad app for IOS. Again, the key to success in digital veins is find a great picture of lightning, turn that into a brush, and layer it light over dark. Fantastic veinage.
Also my socks are the coolest.

A few from the Sketchbook
This Happy little fella is the greatest folk singer ever
And this fella is henry, he sure does love him some magic tricks!
And this poor buddy is riddled with the Cordyceps Fungi. Sucks for him!
Also:
P.S: How the hell do you properly scan Highlighters and neon Sharpies? The real life colors are supremely better, these got pretty washed out.
Deal With It.
Listen, I'm going to post some old Grand Theft Auto fanart I made when I was 15. Yes it's corny, yes it's poorly executed, and yes... it FUCKING ROCKS!!! Learn how to deal with it. My cool factor is plummeting, I don't give a single wet crap.

Mobile blogging test
Testing mobile blogging. Smorgasbord of shots from my device. Morning bike ride goodies, mspaint art and shots of some fine steampunk guns by duluth artist "dick". One is called RAW LSD. Oh ya... And fart spray is available upon request....
Unfathomable Optimism
Here's an old process documentation pic from a piece called "Unfathomable Optimism" I did a few years back. I glued a bunch of bugs and coins and gorilla glue and flowers and shit. Kinda regret that cuz this is rad in of itself. It's "The Chinese Elephant Man" Huang Chuancai right before one of his first surgeries to remove the massive wads of tumors riddling his face. Spraypaint and acrylics on canvas, the reference photo was from a youtube video from some Chinese news program.

Videodrome
So apparently Videodrome is one of the biggest influence on my pixel wonky works... haven't seen it yet. Looks good!

First Officer SppLcchhktzzhvRgRgRkRBwwuuaaaaAAHHH!!!
So Me and muh Lady friend are just passing the halfway point of re-watching all of Star Trek: TNG. Still fantastic.
One thing that was buggin' me was that a portion of these outer-space neighbor-eeno's had stupendously mind-bending grips on realities and powers over nature that I can't even understand... but because of the limitations of makeup and prosthesis they are stuck as mostly humanoid with some subtle variation.... usually genitals for foreheads (I assume that's what's going on there)
So using the power of mental thinking.... and gel pens, I did a series of Starfleet officers that would ruin your grip on reality if you saw them in real life. This was the best of the bunch, rest were kinda barfy.
He walks around forever blasting a stream of brilliant full spectrum refracted light to moisten and levitate his eyes. This also serves as a method of relaying the information from the free-rotating eyes back to the officers brain., The other side has a giant battle horn and a thousand moist folds between (to keep up with the genitals on face theme that Roddenberry had going). His hands are devoid of bones and made up of super elastic sponge-form tissue. Highly malleable to accomplish many varied task.
Freudian Shit Brain Hemorrhage Whilst Rocking Cosmic Shoulder Pads
Yeah and here's Geordi La Forge speakin' some Freudian Shit so hard in the throws of a massive brain Hemorrhage... probably induced by the ship's anti-matter propolsion mechanism deflating the simulated gravity field.... which.... would also explain the rapid expansion and diffussion of the matter in La Forge's Starfleet brand shoulder pads. Sick Episode. I write the best Fan-Fics of all time.
