Sir Rhender LeafSlayer Of Weaselfell

It was pointed out to me that stop motion films were becoming popular again, so I decided to try to make a fully articulated character that could be posed, shot and animated. I put this guy together and made a really, REALLY rough experimental video with him that you can see below.


 

Guardian Of The Provisions

It was not exactly the exotic duty Purcival Fatback had hoped for when he signed his X to the recruiting papers, but it was better than life on the farm…

My Hockey Season Is Over

My hockey season ended last night with me sitting in the penalty box where I felt much shame.

I took that two minutes of solitude to do some much needed soul searching and life contemplation. Then I got out of the box and forgot it all…

…but I did remember the best hockey cartoon ever made by cartoonist John McPherson. I’ve had this a long time and it always makes me laugh…

New Stuff In My ImageKind Shop

A Children’s Minister contacted me this week, said he had some 16X20 frames and wanted to put my artwork in them for the children’s area of his church. I loaded 14 images up for him to chose from… so… uhm… I guess what I’m saying is there are 14 new things in my ImageKind Shop. If there is anything of mine you want, I can probably load it up for you, too. (Does this sound like a desperate man at tax time?)

Rowing The Catacombs

Sir Oric DirtSweeper would have felt so much better about this whole situation if only his two companions had finished basic training and received their life guard certification certificates…

Monday Morning Hockey Report

In last nights hockey game one of the referees got caught in a melee, his hand was sliced open on a skate and he left a trail of blood up and down the ice before he finally had to leave and get it bandaged up. One of our forward skaters snapped an ankle and after a thirty minute delay had to be hauled off the ice on a stretcher by paramedics. I on the other hand escaped with all my tiger blood intact …duh, winning!

Infernal Revenue Service

There is nothing I hate to do more than get my tax returns together, but unfortunately I can’t put it off any longer. Time to send my hard earned treasure off to the Infernal Revenue Service…

HammerTime

…back from Texas, work deadlines looming, April 15 tax day looming, Indiana weather and coyotes looming… time to drop the hammer on a new week…

Buster’s Last Stand

Yesterday around two in the afternoon I walked into the woods behind our house to grab a hose I had left there and when I picked it up the sound apparently disturbed a pack of coyotes who were having some sort of secret club meeting. They were no more that a few hundred feet from me and started howling, growling and making a general ruckus in my direction. I decided my best move was to show them the bottom of my feet as I ran like a madman back to the house waving a garden hose behind me. I guess I’m going to have to start packing heat when I wander into our back yard from now on… maybe a rocket launcher or some kind of small bazooka. Do they sell those at Walmart?

Winged Archer

This looks like it could be trouble for that poor orc down the hill there… well, maybe not… perhaps they are both on the same team… they do both have pointy ears. Twin Sons Of Different Mothers? Weisberg and Fogelberg?

Sir Doggalott Barkswerthy

I’ve had a nagging cough/cold thing going on for the last two weeks now. This was another wet weekend in Indiana, so I stayed inside and made a picture. I’m not sure what it’s all about, but I do think it means I might want to stop mainstreaming Nyquil for a day or two…

2010 Video SketchBook

It’s 2011 and I’m just now getting my 2010 Video Sketchbook posted up onto the almighty YouTube. So much for the start getting things done in a prompt and timely manner New Year’s resolution. I wanted to use a Steven Delopoulos song for this so it became a restricted use video… (it cannot be played by a third party)… duh, that would be me… Mr. Third Party.

The only place you can actually watch this is over on the YouTube. Click here to go to YouTube…

iPad Brushes CapnAmerica

I’m still making pictures on my iPad. Here’s one I did the other night…

Reading eBooks

I’ve been reading e-books lately on my iPad and iPod Touch. I like reading on the iPod Touch best because it’s small, I can carry it in my pocket, and I can fire it up on a moments notice. It’s great to travel with… except when you’re waiting to take off in an airplane and they make the announcement for everyone to turn off all electronic devices at the beginning and end of each flight. Then all the reading comes to a screeching halt. Fortunately, I also carry a sketchbook for emergency situations such as this, and here are some sketches I did recently as I sat on an airplane waiting to be able to read again…

New Game In The Pipeline

I did the artwork for a new boxed game back in December and I don’t think I can legally say anything about it until it’s ready for release, but it looks like a pretty fun product…
