Day 974 of 365 Again. I really need to find hobbies that don’t involve me working my ass off. Spent the entire day writing code for the Cosmic Hellcats website. Really subtle stuff that probably no one will notice, but that I think adds a lot to it. Now you can browse the comics by…

Day 973 of 365 Again. Didn’t really have a good idea for today, but since my mother loved it so much the last time I was playing with fire I thought I’d do some more. So yeah, only can I blow fire, I can also throw it. Pretty exciting huh? No photoshopping here other than…

Day 972 of 365 Again. Spent the evening trying to catch up on photos. Usually I only ever post like four or five photos at a time, and try to stretch things out, but I’m so far behind at the moment that I really need to just get through things. So as a special treat…

XVI-Tower 2

Usually I only post four or five photos from a shoot at a time, but I’m still running way behind, so I spent the evening editing my entire shoot with Jonny.

It’s rare that I find male models on Model Mayhem, and it’s even rarer that one contacts me. But Jonny did and volunteered for the Tarot deck. Which was perfect because he had exactly the right look for my redo of the Tower Card. He was looking for some TFCD work in my style and in particular liked some of my motifs I use a lot (martial arts weapons and the comic posterization for the tarot deck). So it all worked out pretty good.

Day 971 of 365 Again. So like I said, along with working out more, I’m dieting. Dieting means that I can’t have my favorite late-night snack, a PB&J sandwich. So instead I’ve replaced it with the next best thing. The Met-RX Big 100 protein brownie. Oh 30 grams of protein encapsulated in a nice solid…

Day 970 of 365 Again. Today is April 7th. It’s officially been spring for a little over two weeks. So explain something to me. WHY THE FUCK DID I HAVE TO BRUSH SNOW OFF MY TRUCK THIS MORNING!!!! Like now even just a little snow. Like a whole lot. And looking out the window it…

Day 969 of 365 Again. You know how you know you’ve had a good workout? When you’re 3.5 lbs lighter when you finish the workout than you were when you started. Ok, sure it’s water weight, not real weight. Sure I’ll put it back on through the day tomorrow, but it felt hella good to…

Day 968 of 365 Again. Here’s to getting shit done… I had a really productive day today. A couple days ago, both Newt, and my friend Mike wrote me within five minutes of each other to let me know that yet another film was casting for extras in Pittsburgh. We all know how much I…

Day 967 of 365 Again. There’s this fire dancer I want to use as a model for my Tarot Card set. A couple months ago, I asked her if she knew how to breathe fire and she told me she hadn’t learned that yet. I was kinda bummed about that because I had what I…

Firebreathing video

Firebreathing video

The first time I ever got around to actually posting a video at flickr. I never really thought there was much of a point to flickr video, especially given the 90 second size limitation. But now I get what it’s really for. Showing that you didn’t photoshop or camera trick something.

Eight of Cups

Eight of Cups

I have a hard time finding male models. I get a lot of my female models through Model Mayhem but there just aren’t as many men there.

Luckily I know a gazillion male wrestlers. Facade was perfect for my Eight of Cups card. I asked him to do it ages ago, but we only recently got around to shooting it. Pretty happy with how it turned out.

Day 966 of 365 Again. Steph and I went to see Adventureland today, the second major Hollywood film I was in (actually, the first one I was in, but the other came out already). I was able to spot myself among the other extras rather easily this time. In one scene I’m a non-descript bokeh’d…

Day 965 of 365 Again. So I decided a couple days ago what I want to do with my life. I’m going to start a cult. I’ve got it all worked out. Cults rock! See, the problem with most cults is they get greedy. they try to control people too hard. Kidnapping, brainwashing, setting the…
