One of a Kind

bad day for the One of A'kind

August's scrawls

repost from the International Scrawl page, ("the other 'other' blog" of mine).

some random pages from the books

pictures don't do it justice

a "quick" experiment in applying ink to plastic, nothing I would try again.  At least, not on unprepared plastic w/ the accidental smudging, time it took the ink to dry, oils on the fingers causing "dry" ink to smudge, varnish washing away ink completely, etc... It really looks kind of good in spite of the mishaps.

I am cheating on blogspot, with Wordpress, but it looks so GOOD!

YouTube, me.

This is my Youtube video, one of many to come.  The channel, if that is the right word, if you were looking to find my future stuff all linked in a manner would be "Chubbchubbm"
I type in, "Chubbchubbm", and it asks me if I mean, "Chubbchubbs" the animated short by Pixar or Bluesky or etc., but also 2 out of 3 times shows my link to my video before it displays the list of Chubbchubbs content of carniverous hairpuffs.
REMEMBER, "Chubbchubbm" with a M, not a S.

Just for fun

playing w/ color for p.140

"Imperfect Square"

   "Corporate Meeting"- Up in Canada, they had a problem with snow and ice collecting on the power lines and downing/breaking them (or telephone lines, this was pre-cel phones, I guess).  They called a meeting to brainstorm ideas.  Brainstorm enough and people get tired or crazy, strange ideas get put out.  One brainstorming punch-drunk, as the meeting progressed, suggested getting bears to shake the poles.  Happy to chime in on this silly idea, a person asked, "How are you going to get the bears to shake the power poles (and shake off the accumulated snow and ice that was breaking the line and the reason for the meeting)?"  Another person in the spirit of the lunacy, and the boredom of sitting in a meeting of how to economically deal with the issue of downed lines deep in the isolated tundra, suggested that bowls of honey be placed on top of the poles.  This lead to the discussion of HOW do you get the honey up there, that lead to the quip of using helicopters to deliver the honey...  Which lead to the ultimate end idea and the solution of the meeting of just having helicopters fly out after a storm and the harsh backwash from the main rotor as the copter hover/flew over the lines knocking off the ice and snow, no bears and honey pots needed.  This is why I like creative brainstorming with creative people that can allow the lapse of sometimes silly ideas developing into great ideas.  I appreciate open-minds.

Sorry, ~finished this back in August (apparently).  

(I am too tired to discuss its shortcomings or merits today)

-Considered in progress.

I forgot I needed to get back to these

Shoot, they are all rigged, I just need to animate it and get the lead out, sorry.

logos works 3.lost.lv

Work from 2009 at Bally.  

I do not know if I have permission to display work done for them even now at this late date as a former employee, so if they wish me to take this down, I will ASAP.

Royal symbols - Organs

(on slot machines, they have a great number of symbols spinning around.  There are major and minor symbols... and then there are the Royals. Some companies treat the royals like the red-headed stepchild of reel symbols and just slap the same royals graphics on that they have used for 30 years on every game they produce, and others use them to really solidify the theme and, well, do better on their artistic output and game presentation.  I liked working for the ones that do better, that aren't just try to "do" the game.)

Logo piece 2a

Sorry, made this some many, many moons ago. At 100x100, it may be small but it serves a purpose of showing that small does not mean unreadable or not pretty if you know how.

Logo work piece 1.0

Better than you

Mister Zomi is better than you, and cuter.

Happy Birthday to me

Two favorites of mine from the past and two incomplete scans of a incomplete piece in progress.  Happy Birthday to me.
