I was working on some icons for a live music app today and somehow I got to messing around. What isn’t surprising is that skulls were the subject of my messing around.
Hey, it's Friday. A thing for a thing I'm working on. Gonna be real fun stuff.
Prescription Strength Hugs “Dude Supply EP” & ae Mix “St. Valentino & His Corpse Army”
DJ Lani Love’s “Warmth Of Love” & “Snow to Stars” mixes.

Working on a character for a new haiku/comic mashup done with haikuist Kalia A. Comin' soon. Yeah, he shoots a laser out his fingers.
Season 3 Episode 5 in which a man in the electric chair promises to exact revenge on the heads of 5 men who have wronged him in his final years on death row. Seemingly reincarnated as a string of larvae - fly - man, Napoleon “Neech” Manley makes good on his hit list.
This is part of an ongoing project to catalogue the villains from the television series X Files. Check out the others here!

Pixel art out the wazoo, folks. It’s gonna keep coming, so I hope you like it. I do. Here is a little something I made for a website in case it went down… which is kind of a bummer, so I tried to make it fun.

Been mega busy with works but this one slipped out in all the pixel work I’ve been doing.
My first proper sculpt and paint. Seemed only fitting that it be Hellboy as that continues to be my most valued media for both art and storytelling. The white figure at the bottom was my actual first stab that melted in the oven which taught me the valuable lesson of creating a proper armature (and using clay that wasn’t many years old). More sculpts coming.
Original Beige Super Sculpey with acrylic paints applied with various brushes. Base is a piece of pine with medium-gauge wire for armature covered in aluminum foil to pad out bulky areas.

I started recording some music again. Got a little album in mind with lots of guitar loops and lots of lyrics crammed into 2 minute and under songs. Tentative album title is Jacuzzi Juice. Alternate tentative title is Austin, The Man, Not the City. Here is one of the tiny tracks I recorded Sunday afternoon and a comic inspired by the tiny track!
Take a Septembral stroll with me through 10 new choice tracks. As usual, most are what's been on heavy repeat, filled in with classics from the vault that fit just right for a Septembral stroll. Enjoy.
FEBRUARY - Lord Akira.
Continuing the 2015 calendar I'm making of comic book characters my girlfriend admires. All building designs taken from the insanely talented Katsuhiro Otomo. It was nearly impossible to follow his level of detail and organization of thousands of lines. To counteract the pain I felt rendering those buildings, I went a bit looser on Akira. Tried some screentone, ended up not applying it heavily enough, but was pretty pleased with the final result. You can track the months here.
