Day 1312 of 365 4 lyf. Still catching up… This is just what I look like after basically 2 weeks of working around the clock on the comic and photography. The nice thing is that I’ve been so busy artistically that I haven’t had much time to think about being unemployed. The bad thing is……

Day 1311 of 365 4 lyf. Still catching up… This is a hypercube. Why? Well, I’ve been exploring the concept of cosmic physics in the comic and tomorrow’s comic features a hypercube. Yeah, pretty simple, huh? if you haven’t been reading Cosmic Hellcats please stop in and check us out. 365 days

Day 1310 of 365 4 lyf. Still catching up… Took a break from working on comics and photos around the clock to go to the movies with Steph. We went and saw Alice in Wonderland, mostly because of her ridiculous schoolgirl crush on Johnny Depp. I actually was kind of looking forward to it. I’d…

Day 1309 of 365 4 lyf. Still catching up Brother can you spare a dime? I’ve been hard at work on getting the comic ready for Pittsburgh Comicon. Seeing as how I’m unemployed now, I wasn’t sure how I was going to pay for it, but a friend of mine suggested kickstarter.com which allows people…

Day 1308 of 365 4 lyf. Still catching up… Snow is almost melted. Thank god. It’s getting really warm. This patch of snow I’m standing on is all that’s left of the tundra that was my block a few weeks ago. Let’s hope it keeps. 365 days

Day 644 of 365 More.

I’m clearly getting burnt out again.

I had big plans for today. I went to the movies and while I was there, I took this picture in front of the Hulk statue. My intent was to come home and make a movie poster with it and then use that poster to do a tutorial for the podcast, which I had told Stephen I was gonna do this week.

I worked on it for maye 30 min. If you look you’ll see that I have done a slight bit of retouching. The rope that is in front of the Hulk has been digitally removed by his legs.

And then I ran out of steam. Like I’m seriously completely spent. It’s only 12:30. I’m me. I should be up for like 4 more hours.

I can’t, I’m just dead.

So this is as far as it gets. Sorry.

Day 622 of 365 More. And breathe… That’s it. That’s all I can do. The comics are here. The graphic novels are here. The prints are here. The t-shirts are here. The con is tomorrow. Am I excited? Yes… Am I terrified? Yep, a little of that too. The thing is, I still expect something…

Day 612 of 365 More. There, that’s a lot better. Smooth as a baby’s bottom. So I’m done with the Hellcats comic, as I said before. The comic version is ordered(still isn’t appearing at the online store yet). The portfolio edition is ordered. Now I just need to figure out what else to do. If…

Day 569 of 365 More. Witness the creative process. Maverick Studios isn’t just for photography. I alluded to my new project in yesterday’s pic. Today I spent the day working on it. I first decided I wanted to be an artist when I was seven years old. Only I didn’t so much want to be…

Day 413 of 365 More. Thank God it’s Friday. Got through the day at work and went to happy hour. I think my favorite thing about this job is that my favorite happy hour bar is right across the street. That’s certainly one big advantage. After Happy Hour, we went to dinner for Steph’s friend’s…

Day 383 of 365 More. Gentlemen…we can rebuild him. Bigger! Stronger! Better in bed! I actually initially had this idea about a week ago when watching a commercial for the new Bionic Woman series that’s coming out this fall. Then when I talked about all of my lifelong injuries the other day I figured I…

Day 303 of 365 days. Just a day of hanging around… har har har… get it? Actually, it was a decent day. Late last night, I deleted and reinstalled photoshop from my computer, which helped some of my problems a bit, but its still slower than I would like it to be. I don’t really…

Day 100 of 365 days. One hundred days. Never would have thought I’d make it that far. Wanted to do something special that might stand out a bit in order to commemerate it. I hope this fits the bill. I noticed that I hadn’t been doing as much photoshop gimmickery lately, and part of me…
