    The Real Ghostbusters!!

     The Real Ghostbusters Complete Collection

    Ok, so I have been waiting….oh lets just say 15 years for this to happen. This was my number one all time favorite cartoon (with TMNT in a very very close second) Re-watching the cartoon, I still think it holds up very well today and can’t believe how dark it is for a kids show. The Ghostbusters are one of my favorite movie properties and with the cartoon, they did everything right. And now, with this awesome DVD set they did everything perfectly. I’ve had this since thanksgiving and haven’t even put a dent into the episodes because there is so much content…it’s awesome!

     

    New Stuff!!

    I am gradually adding new stuff, who knows when I will get around to adding it to my flickr.  There isn’t much there now, but that is only because I can’t show a lot of the stuff I’ve done until it comes out.  That, and the fact that I made all new images from a new template and that took time.  The layout is a bit different too, I took away the about section.   I felt it was worthless, but I replaced it with a client page.  I took some stuff off too and tried to make it simple with as less reading as possible.

    more stuff will get added soon once I stop being lazy!

     

    Where Did I Go?

    updates…been a while huh?

    a few months ago I moved into a house with some roommates.  All my free time that I used to spend updating my blog, website or post art on other sites has disappeared, and on top of that I’m trying to stay away from all types of art completely so I can start doing different stuff and so other things from other people don’t sneak up in my art.  My workload right now is ridiculous but I am getting to work for people that I’ve always wanted to work for and I am doing different things besides t-shirts design and it has me very excited.  At this point I’m too lazy to go into detail on it…but new stuff should be posted within the beginning of the new year along with a slightly modified website.  Welp it’s dinner time…don’t expect another post for a few weeks! Happy Holidays everyone!

    For now I leave you with THIS and THIS

     

    DVD of the Week: Steven King’s IT

     

    Probably one of the most terrifying movies I have ever seen.  Maybe movie isn’t the right word for it because it was originally a TV mini-series.  But still, the is scary as hell.  I’m not sure if this is the reason why I hate clowns, but it doesn’t help their cause much.  I can remember seeing this for the first time and being freaked out for weeks.

    Dead Shred!

     

    YES!!! It’s finally here!!!

    It was so hard to keep this a secret, I just want to tell every single person in the work that this was going to be printed!

    There is a funny story that goes along with this. About a month and a half ago, I e-mail threadless wondering if they were going to print this, and if not I wasnted to take it off and sell it to another company. I didn’t hear anything for a week, I was getting ready to just say screw it and sell the design to a company for $300….then I got an e-mail that said I won….I was so excited, jumping up and down.

    I feel pretty honored to be chosen at threadless, I really do. And the way the print turned out just amazes me, It’s just how I wanted it, the pictures rock too!

    It’s like purple shirt week for me!

    Go get it!

    Oh and here was the spoiler alert posted last week, I’m the first one!



     

    DVD of the Week: Phantoms

     

    This is one of my all time favorite horror movies (if you can call it horror). The isolation felt in this movie and the just the all around creepiness of it is awesome to me. And Ben Affleck is actually really good in this movie. Go get it!

     

    It’s Here!

    got them in the mail today!

    Vampire Grill

     

    Vampire Grill

     

    It’s finally here!!! The guys at Dance Party Massacre asked me to do a design for them. They gave me the specifics on what they wanted and this is what came out for it.  I’m stoked with how it looks, and even more stoked that there is some silver ink on there! You can’t have a grill graphic without some shine to it, and come on, purple shirts are pretty cool! These guys are really awesome, and their clothes kick butt too, so go get some! You don’t have to buy just mine, all the shirts are great!

    Dennis The Menace….

     

    So it was about 3am in the morning, of course I couldn’t sleep.  When this happens I usually skim through onDemand to see if there is anything cool on there.  This usually includes my regular shows like Space Ghost Coast the Coast, The Brak Show, The Jetsons, Scooby Doo, Bobby’s World etc…

    I decided to check out Kabillion onDemand and went to the Halloween section and found that they were showing a Halloween episode of Dennis the Menace!  I was stoked, this used to be one of my favorite cartoons as a kid and I probably haven’t seen an episode in at least 15 years.  I can still recite the theme song in my head, it was awesome.

     

    DVD of the Week: The Blob

     

    No, it isn’t the Steve McQueen version, this is the 1988 remake version starring a very young and cute Shawnee Smith and a young Kevin Dillion (Drama from Entourage). This is another one of my all time favorite movies, despite the crazy premise of the story, the movie kicks a lot of butt. The special effects, for the time, are incredibly awesome. Seeing the blob attack someone for the first time is one of the coolest things ever, it’s also pretty gross too. This coupled with John Carpenters “The Thing” is an awesome way to spend a night.

    Go get it here!
