The weeks since my last post, "The Turning Point", have been pretty hectic. Work is, naturally, depressing, and afterward home is—more so than before—a constant effort to get as much professional work done as humanly possible. Why "more so than before"? Because directly after "The Turning Point", I rallied Chaos Mechanica to start on that new... Continue Reading →
The Turning Point
I've danced around the topic a few times on this site, careful to not talk about the actual experience or give any details about it, but, at this point, I don't see a reason to hide that I work at Borders. I'm still not going to talk about working there or any of the people... Continue Reading →
The Death of Ultimate Spider-Man… By the Amazing Spider-Man’s Hand
After work today, I met my good friend @GentlemanMonstr for some Five Guys and a stop at Midtown Comics. As the undisputed overlord of the comic world (in my opinion), the Gentleman had something obscure in mind. For me, it was the exact opposite: Ultimate Spider-Man #160. In all honesty, it was something I wasn't looking forward... Continue Reading →
The PDF That Just Wouldn’t Die
I'm not sure how it is for you, but Photoshop projects always take longer than I expect. I have an idea and think, I can get that done in an hour tonight. But then I get in front of my computer and realize I just can't edit a part of the project the way I'd intended... Continue Reading →
Apocalypse 2011: The Chillest Apocalypse Ever?
I woke up this Apocalypse at 10:04 AM. I was not in my own bed, but not in an apocalyptic kind of way; I crashed at the "ghetto fabulous" flat of Ronin (the camera-wielding video smith of HotMop Films) and woke up on the sofa bed. The sun was shining through the window and, looking... Continue Reading →
Getting Closer
I realized I have something time sensitive to say, so I have to try to belt it out before that company I just mentioned arrives. If you haven't already heard about it, you should know about the Met's Get Closer photography contest. It's not a huge deal; you photograph a piece from the permanent collection... Continue Reading →
It’s Been a While
It's been just about a month since my last post, begging the question "What the $#(*?" Well, I'll tell you what the $#(*. Life. My best friend's moving to Seattle in two weeks, an event I found out about around two weeks ago. Aside from being extremely bummed about it, my weekends have been absorbed... Continue Reading →
Gamer Quirks
Some time last month, while chatting with a friend of mine (I don't remember who, but let's call him Ted) about our favorite games, I mentioned that one of mine was Flashback. To this Ted naturally replied: "Never heard of it." So I explained: Flashback was a PC game that was ported to consoles in... Continue Reading →
The Andrew Garfield Spider-Suit: There’s No Pleasing You, Is There?
On January 13th, everyone got their first look at Andrew Garfield in his Spidey getup. In case you missed it, here it is: I remember seeing this and thinking, Wow. My brother was right. He looks so weird. I didn't know what else to think about it, aside from It's red and blue. That's a... Continue Reading →
Sigh
After chatting with friends I decided to take down the Character Art page. I'll have it back up when my book is actually out, but for now it's just me getting ahead of myself. Also, I'd rather have fully colored pieces on show, and not sketches. The Ink Abstracts will remain up and I will... Continue Reading →
