An Appetizer...

Been too long but since I last posted. Swore I had some posts in sept/oct but guess not. So here's a little something to tide you over until I post more or throw a bunch of pics from the last few months.

The other day I guess I was overly tired when getting dressed because I accidentally put my boxers on backwards. Finally realized about 4 hrs later when I attempted to find the front hole in the boxers while at the urinal.  Would have laughed, but no one likes a laughing person in the bathroom, and ended up spending the rest of the day with added room in the front and the now conscious knowledge that my boxers were backwards anytime I moved or walked...

Heh time is not the same for me as others...

I may have said a photo catch up would arrive that night, then life happened, and I kind of forgot.  But most people know how us creatives can get from time to time.  A day turns into 3 and we act as if no time has progressed at all.  ok well here is an update with photo's, nothing major...
What I can (probably not supposed to anyway) take pictures of at work...  My ID badge (still the same since Halloween '14), and my note pad with some scribbles. 
Old writing setup, Word on my Ipad, and a bluetooth keyboard.
In April I had a technology blackout, where both of my computers, my main All-in-one pc, and my old work computer died within a week of each other.  I was able to get my main one fixed but instead of getting a replacement work computer, I decided to get a laptop instead and use my old main pc as my new work pc, and the randomness (and writing) with my laptop.  A lil backstory to the next image, as well as to explain why I didn't post anything for the months of 3-5, maybe...
New writing setup, the Laptop (with only two stickers so far), still with energy drink, pen, and paper, though this pic has a view of the pool to make it feel more appealing.
Saw this the last time I was at the beach.  It made me laugh, then grossed me out.  Not sure which should come first.  Granted, if you were to leave one type of condom wrapper at the beach, it would be a magnum...
The night the Manson stage drums stayed at my house... (early July 2015)
My favorite picture of randomness found in what you could call my backyard.  I use to use this with goggles in the pool, but our landscape guys just throw our stuff wherever, and I kinda dug how it looked in the dirt like that.  Hope it gets somewhat buried and the next tenant finds it.  Or it scares one of the yard workers... payback.
Had some old drafts of something I've been working on for a while now.  Didn't want to throw them out (no copyrights or trademarks yet), plus this seemed almost like a viking funeral, but it never made it to the water, didn't want to pollute our pool with ashes (but it has been considered).
MADBALLS!  They are coming back!  My awesome sister got me the 3 issue comic series from back in the mid-80's.  I kinda hope they are expensive so I only get one or two...  Who am I kidding, I want them moderately priced, so they are made with quality and are affordable enough that I can get them all!
Okay... The explanation for this picture will help explain why it's on here.  I went into Burger King in San Diego after a day at Comic-Con.  While walking up and scanning the menu, from far away I read the "Extra Long Pulled Pork" but my brain interpreted it as, "Yadda Yadda Long Pig," [which if you don't know, long pig is slang for Human].  It took me back for a moment, before I re-read and understood what it really said.  Don't let your brain fill in the gaps people, read carefully.
This was on the tail end of a truck that I was walking past to get to my car before heading to the Convention.  I appreciated the creepy factor, but the truck looked like it belonged in a horror movie already, so I think a tennis ball to warn people of the pole would have been a much better idea, help stay off the "watch lists".
Shamu's pool time was at an end when all of his fins were torn or deflated.  Most likely due to the careless yard workers, or the sun, but he had to be put down.  His hot rubber cut so smooth, but it made me sad... so I took multiple during pictures...
About a month or so ago I laid on the couch for the first time, but left my slippers on the floor next to me.  When the movie was done, I turned off the tv with the remote, then swung my lungs around to place them in my slippers, luckily right before I do, I see this.  Granted it's only a cricket but it was a tad shocking to see, erspecially while half asleep and almost stepping on it barefoot.
Saw this sign in a parking lot.  Almost accepted the challenge, but I noticed a lot of video camera's all around so I decided it was one of those challenges that would unfortunately go on the loss board...
That's all I could find from my phone, I will try to post more randomness on here whenever I can remember, or think of something funny enough to post.  Maybe it's because a lot of my recent jokes are being used in some future projects, and I want to keep the mystery of it all.  Or just more excuses...

6 months Huh?

Ok well I will post today's right now, hoping to post more stuff as it comes available.  Shouldn't be as much of an issue, since it will be more visible artsy stuff, less words on a page stuff.  I've been getting back into zBrush, and today I was messing around with different things, tools, subtools, merging geometry, and this guy ended up being made...  I call him "Snot Rocket."
May come back to him to add actual details and texture him, but I am just practicing forms and relearning layout things.  More stuff to come, hopefully not long until I can start getting details down and textures.  But it is fun to just create throw away characters...  Get it?  Throw away?  Snot Rocket?
Ahhh whatever...  I'll update the funny ha ha's with catch up pictures tonight...  Probably separated into a few posts.

Artsy Update Bits

finished my Goblin Hoodie back.  Added black on the interior negative space.  I think it makes it pop a bit more.
I also found that red lenses help you see thinner areas of green paint easier heh.  bonus.
Star Guy Sticker Tests
2 star guy candles.  I'll burn these one day.
no comment hellraiser sticker.
no comment star guy sticker
Newest Art piece of myself.
Back to writing my comic...
So hopefully I'll do better with these postings.  Most of my ramblings have gone to facebook, blah blah.  I'll try to post stuff when I have stuff to post.

Halloween 2014 Updates (Part 3) sewing & application

now onto the last few days and Halloween night...
Set up and attempts...
More stuff to prep & attempt.
Tie all sewn up.
Made it to be a working tie, that could be tightened/loosened, but it kept slipping.  should have made the back longer, and added some weight to the back.
The mask all sewn up.
Put shoes on, took one step, sole fell off of shoes.  no dice on last hoorah for shoes.
Face application, then I touched it up a bit.
skin bros Halloween 2014
Add mask, feeling more into it.
added finger sleeves and gloves, gauze on other fingers.  bloodied gauze dulled in color but was used on fingers and wrists.
Full costume, close to what I imagined.
back, showing jacked and back of mask.
car selfie flash surprise
when i took the gauze off at the end of the night.  I was stained for a bit on my arms and hands.  It rained Halloween night so the gauze got wet and the fake blood got all onto me heh.
Resting mask, still needs some work before it's amazing.
the mask removal process.  
Heh I just love this picture...
I guess that's it.  I have done a few minor tweaks to the mask since these pictures.  I have adjusted the mouth, now it moves more freely with the wearer's movement.  I still want to remove the laces and re-sew it with thinner laces.  There are also some knots on the inside I need to get rid of for comfort, but I should be able to get rid of those when I resew it.

yay all the mask work in progress pictures are finally up...

Halloween 2014 Updates (Part 2) painting

Some organization to start it all out.
Painted the backs of the small pieces first to test out a few things.  Ended up using the airsbrush for the main detail parts and sides, and my fingers in latex gloves for some of the back pieces to give a nice swirl before it dried.
Painting the inside of the mask with the newly added textured silicone makes it look real nice and gross.
Quick few blood passes on the face prosthetic.  Very gross, but needs to be a bit grosser
Then night rolled around but it needed done...
Almost lost this little guy.  Part of one of my airbrushes.  tightens the needle.  would have been disastrous if I would have lost it.
The next day it was time to finish it all off.  Finger Sleeves, check
Added more gross to the face piece.
Finger bits painted.
Back piece.  (I touched up the lettering a bit after this pic though)
The other pieces painted
The painted mask and face piece.
Onto the sewing, applications, and night of.
