London Sneak Peek

So very soon, Jim Mahfood and i will be in London for the SUPREME BROSHIP show at London Miles gallery in Notting Hill. June 11th.

We did a whole bunch of stuff for this show. Including collaborations. Which is something sort of new to me, aside from the comics i used to do with the Hickee guys. Jim sent me some paintings that he started and i sent him some that i started. We then added our bits in response. Here is a sneak peek at some of those..

Jim sent me these and i added to them. I enjoyed this process. (although i started to use acryla-gouache and got weirded out. not my usual medium. i bailed on it.)


And here are a few of the solo pieces i did. (Igloo Head and Tree Head will be making a number of appearances with their friends.)

"Ninja Catch"

"Walking Dioskilos"

"Volcano Head (Getting Excited)"

So yeah! Come to the show if you are near London. Jim and i will be there along with Jon Gibson and Derek Puleston of Nerdcore.

OH, and dont forget we will also be signing books at Forbidden Planet the night before on the 10th. I'll have a bunch of copies of the Double Fine Action Comics book. We'll also have them at the show. And i'll have some prints of things..

IN OTHER NEWS... E3 is this week.. which means, Tim S. will be down there showing off Brutal Legend. It will be a very exciting week.

whoah, UPDATE: i just noticed they are doing some big giveaway thing with tim and twitter. I designed this atrocious Tenacious D guitar for the game. They build a real version and are giving it away. That makes this week even more exciting!

the rest of the Quiet Storms.

LONDON! mark your calendars.

Hey, LONDON, I am coming to hang out with you soon!

Jim Mahfood and I are doing a two man show at the London Miles Gallery on June 11th! Holy Moley! AND the day before we will be doing book signings at Forbidden Planet. I'll have the new DFAC book for everyone!

SUPREME BROSHIP is what it shall be called. Broship because we are bros and we will be doing some collaboratory things. But also, i'll be doing a bunch of new little paintings.. It should be crazy nuts. More as things develop. But get ready Londoners, I am excited to come meet you and hug some castles.

They are here.

I am hearing reports that the DOUBLE FINE ACTION COMICS book has finally been arriving at doorsteps across America. And the entire WORLD. So if you preordered a copy, it should be arriving any minute, if it has not already.

This is very exciting news.

For those of you who do not know, this is Volume 1, collecting the first 300 comics of the webcomic I do for doublefine.com. Along with extra 'making of' sorts of things that movies usually come with. Available at Nerdcore and Doublefine..

More on this exciting time soon. But the FIRST KICK OFF will be at TCAF. That is when i shall first have them in my hands for the publics..

TCAF!

Hey, everyone! Announcement!

We will have all kinds of new things. Prints, shirts, Hickees, The Bridge Project (includes a story by graham and i), Great Great Grandshow Books, buttons, so much stuff.

More things, i shall announce soon. Such as DOUBLE FINE sorts of things.. But start your Toronto plans now!

Twittering It.

Yeah, that's right, i got on Twitter in case you hadn't noticed. You should follow me around if you are so inclined. I kind of dig it. Like a mini diary. Sometimes i speak of comics i just made. Other times i speak of a weird dog i just saw pass by.

CLOUD HOUSE PRINTS ..plus some discontinued.

Hello, everyone. Besides seeing you tonight at myplasticheart, let me just tell you about the new limited edition CLOUDHOUSE PRINTS at Gallery Nucleus. Only 30 of them. And they are huge.

Here is a picture of one on a wall above an outlet.


And here is some detail from that painting in case you have forgotten what is going on in that cloud.


Alright, so another announcement to discuss with you are the prints that we are DISCONTINUING. On April 15! So you might want to go buy like 100 of each and put them in mylar bags because they will be so expensive 100 years into the future. (because they will be so rare) (maybe) (uncertain)

These are the ones to be discontinued on April 15th:

"Headwalker"

"Pyramid Car"

"Mummy Piano"

"Ultimate Tank #1"

"Igloo Head & Tree Head #1"

Goodbye, awesome prints. You were all really nice prints. We had good times...
