podcast, music videos, underwear and zen

*It's a Marvel Geekout!
New podcast over at Tim Young's Deconstructing Comics.
We discuss Marvel's latest crossover Dark Reign and deal with some general goofiness.
Other good podcasts here as well with Tim and guests.

*Been animating music videos for acoustic group Kirazuki. Good stuff.

here is a frame from "Elmore" by Kirazuki

*Been designing undies with a retro SF motif. Funfunfun. More on this later.

*Had a booth at the Tokyo Animation Fair with my Artist Army buds.

*Fresh off of two art exhibitions in Ginza and Tokyo City Hall.

*And I'm about to move to the country. Well, out of the city anyway.
Fresh mountain air, plenty of room, and we're gonna get a doggie!

*The good part about being so busy is that I'm getting more work. The bad part is that I haven't done any kind of promotion! Grrrrr! My next show isn't until May, so I should be settled in by then. I'll have my promotion plan put together by then as well. Maybe I'll even have a web comic started!

Lazy Day

Had a lazy day today. Been working on high gear for a while now. Guess I needed a break. Today's monster: "Chicken of the Sea".

IlloFri "late"

New Illustration Friday Illo. "I'm late! I'm late! And I don't even have a date!" I need to be finishing up my preperation for the Tokyo Contents Market starting Monday, but doing the Illustration Friday every week keeps me drawing! Other news: I may be moving soon, so we' ve been looking at places. Found a really cool fixer-upper in Kugayama. We love the area so it's a definite possibility.

DOGVILLE - a comment

This film happened to express some recent thoughts I’ve been having regarding sin and the nature of forgiveness as well as regarding the possibility of an idyllic small town life. The smaller the number of variables, the more chance of effecting a utopian ideal you might think. The same weaknesses exist everywhere and in all of us. I don’t make Grace’s mistakes as much anymore. I’m not out to change the world or martyr myself for the greater good. I just do what I can with what I have and try not to be a rat’s ass (see quote from last post). The way the movie is filmed is fascinating. Even though it’s stafe-like, you’d still have to shoot it on film for it to work. Brilliant. Dogville is like America seen through the eyes of the brilliant Shirley Jackson. Anyway, the format of my commentaries is still in flux. I hope it’s not too incoherent.
