Happy Hump Day!

So I’ve been really struggling with writing a full blog post today. Ok I should be more specific. I’m having a hard time writing more than 140characters, haha. Thanks Twitter!!

But I that’s cool cuz I’m an artist not a writer Bones! Speaking of which, is everyone pumped for the Star Trek movie coming out? I have to say I am. Anyone who knows me, knows I’m more Jedi than Starfleet officer but I love me some sci-fi in any case. Peeyong! (that’s laser fire noise).

I wanna share a piece I just finished. I have to tell you I’m a big Resident Evil fan, so it was hella fun to work on a project like this:

Plus, any girl who can shoot off hot lead is ok in my book.

In other news, thank you to everyone who got out to the Seattle Erotic Art Festival this weekend. I’m honored to have had both of my display piece sold. I thank you… my liver thanks you (for the rum you have provided) and my sock monkey thanks you for getting me outta the house to do whatever the hell that little bastard does in here. Hmm… i better check my liquor cabinet. >_>

I know I promised sexy pictures too. I did not forget! If you’ve seen That’s 70s Show or Forgetting Sarah Marshall will recognize Mila Kunis, check her out all pinup stylie:

Smoking huh? This Hump Day is dedicated to you grrl!!

Well that’s all I got betches, I’m off to Twitter… err, I MEAN draw! *whew*

See ya all next week, till then stay sexy,

Feliz Post Hump day Celebration everyone!

I didn’t quite make it to Hump Day. Just becoming harder to take time out to collect my thoughts and make them intelligable for you to understand. Its like by the time I’m done with work my brain feels like durrr, bllaaahh, blargh. Kinda sad really. Lots of drool me sez.

Anyways, I’m sure you’ve noticed the new artwork. If not, here it is again (BAM!):

Its a little piece I did to adorn my Twitter page. It needed something to make it sexy and worth visiting. You understand. Btw, here’s the link for those of you who care:

Happy Hump Day all!

I’ve been down and out the last couple weeks. Finally, caught “that bug” that has been going around… I’m sure you know which one it is cuz you were prolly sick recently as well. I thought I had dodged that bullet but shortly after Mega*Con, I noticed Spicy McHaggis was sneezing and coughing. Needless to say he’s a dirty monkey so I fell victim!

Which brings to me to the title of this blog entry. I wanna talk about 3 of my most guilty pleasures to do when I’m not working:

1. The Girls Next Door – yeah I know what ur saying…prolly the same thing you would say if you caught me reading a copy of Playboy, haha. Hey I read the articles AFTER I check out the nudity… that’s how I roll. I’ve been catching up on Season 4 & 5 of the Girls Next Door on DVD. Yes, you must watch it on DVD to watch it unsensored… blocky boobs are not good. I find the show entertaining. You can’t help but fall for the girl’s goofy antics and Hef, well, Hef is Hef! I can’t say that at 80 I could keep up with them. I tip my hat to you. I think I’m gonna miss this show when its over. I’m looking forward to seeing what the girls will do next. In fact, being and avid Travel Channel viewer… I’m looking forward to seeing Bridget’s new show!

2. World or Warcraft – yes, I have full emersed myself in the deepest depths of nerdom here. I’ve come to grips with it… and its fun and I don’t care. haha. I finally got my character up to Level 60. I’m looking forward to my epic mount and eventually getting my gnome engineering skillz up to building my dope steampunk motorcycle! As you can imagine I’ve got some ideas brewing for pinups in the future… so stay tuned for sexy elven action!

3. Booze – I am taking advantage of this cold to put the rum bottle down for a while. What? Are you really reading this? No, I think there is a typo there or something. Nope, I’m gonna push myself to living clean for a while. I’m gonna st my date to May 5th. What better day right? Its day 12 of soberdom… things are going well… but there is too much tempting beer in my fridge dammit! >_<

4. Travel Channel – next to the Food Network, this is really the only station on TV I watch. I know weird. But I lust after all exotic travel… and all the food and drinks to be had! I want to be able to hang with Anthony Bourdain or Samantha Brown someday! They have the best job in the world as far as I can tell! Its not fair really. I’m stuck having to drawing boobs and shit all day, when they are flying to all corners of the earth… eating squid on a stick and drinking all forms of unrefined alcohols. meh. Maybe I’ll start my own show dammit! Hell with you Tony! haha

One final note, Watchmen… rocked! I saw it twice so far and loved it better the second time around!! I wanna see it IMAX next before it disappears from the theaters. I’d say even Alan Moore would have to admit the visuals were pretty kickass. He won’t, but prolly after 4 or 5 Guinesses he’ll give in. Plus, my girl Carla Gugino looked smoking hot! That alone makes me wanns go back to watch it again! Go Carla! And Rorschach was freaken dead on! This is such a tough property to convert into movie… let alone capture what it had originally set out to do in the mid 80s for comics. I think most of today’s youth won’t get what Watchmen was. Definitely one of my fav graphic novels of all time! Go buy it, go watch the Watchmen!

Thank you to everyone for their St Patty’s Day comments. Alas I spent my sober and drawing. But I hope you all had a shot in my honor.

Remember kiddies, eat your vegs and have a pleasant Hump Day!
