Brett's Tattoo
June 25, 2009
The other day, my good friend Brett called from Iowa to tell me that he was going to get a tattoo of two of my designs that he had cobbled together.
When he sent me an image of what he had done, I almost got sick. I never do tattoos for people (please don't ask) but what he was going to have permanently tattooed on his body was so hideous that I had no choice but to agree to quickly come up with a better design. I fired up my Cintiq tablet and fifteen minutes later, I email him this design which he immediately got tattooed on his lower back.

ZED Pinup from Kean Soo
June 14, 2009
Progress on ZED #10 has been halted once again due to my work with Pixar. I'm not complaining - I'm having a blast working on The Bear and the Bow with my friend Steve Pilcher. But the reality is that ZED is currently on the back seat until I'm done with this current assignment. In the meantime, here is a pinup that my Flight pal, comic book artist/writer extraordinaire, Kean Soo did for me.
Kean just release a new graphic novel continuing the adventures of his character Jellaby. Check it out.

Fun at Pixar
May 20, 2009
I just got back from Pixar in Emeryville, California where I met with my good friend Steve Pilcher, who is currently art directing one of their upcoming movies, The Bear and the Bow. Steve and I worked together at Warner Bros for many years most notably on "Osmosis Jones". I've always enjoyed Steve's visual sense and great artistic abilities so you can imagine my delight when he asked me to help out with the special effects designs for this exciting project.
While I spend the next few weeks creating effects visualization for TBATB, work will still continue on ITSP. I have generated loads of visual material and assets to keep the team going before I resume my involvement in a few weeks.
Before starting work for Pixar this upcoming Monday, I intend to use the rest of this week to forge ahead on ZED #10, which has been moving very slowly due to my other projects taking up all my working hours. So much to do...
