Me, I didn't have Futurama in my country back in 2000, so when I became friends with Graham I asked him to send me a VHS (I feel like I'm dating myself with this) with the first few episodes. The first one I watched was "Love's Labor's Lost in Space", and I was hooked from a couple of min...

I've been thinking about attempting this for a while and decided to actually do something about it. This is the very first drawing I've ever posted. Anywhere. (Rewind back to 2008 or maybe possibly 2007.) Idle Hands Original - 100.jpg That drawing was done on an 8 1/2 x 11-inch piece of printer pape...

I'm still on the "Miss Kobayashi" story. Here's my latest. Kobayashi took the gang on a day trip and somehow ended up at Lick Observatory, on top of Mt Hamilton just south-east of San Jose California. Why Lick Observatory? Well, the blue Audi is mine. I took the base photo a couple of year...

Well, lots going on. February promises to be a busy month. Netflix has announced several good shows. "Sword Art Online" season 4, "Kid Cosmic" season 3, a few other new shows that look very promising. But the best? "The Dragon Prince" will be returning also! Yeah! But a...

Is that boat alive? Hi Chris, Nope not alive. Although that was a good guess. It's Sasuke's toy boat. Ponyo used her magic to make the boat large enough to ride on so they could find Sasuke's mom. Unfortunately for Sasuke the magic only works when Ponyo is awake. So of course she goes to sleep from...

As promised, Ponyo and Sasuke, from the movie "Ponyo".


BTW, the boat isn't what it seems...

Pass the Chanpaggan! I was finally able to say two words I never thought would be said. It's up! P.A. Jr Muz 17.jpg This thing fought us every step of the way. It took six guys and a nine-hour workday. The completed display weighs in at approximately 500 pounds! We took to the site in pieces and ass...

The character in your most recent post: Ponyo, née Brunhilde Must be pretty recognisable, since it's been years since I watched it, and extremely cute. Maybe her nose should be slightly bigger in the last one (even for an anime character). But looks great to me, I love the transparent bubble in the...

Happy New Year, Y'all! I survived another New Years. On to '22. This morning is clear and very cold here in California. I have two heaters running at the moment... Let me start the year with a puzzle. Who is this character? Is she recognizable? Ponyo 1 - 100.jpg Ponyo 2 - 100.jpg Ponyo 3 - 100.jpg A...

The end is in sight. Finally! I have the remaining strips back in the shop. Don't ask about the hoops the engravers had to go through to get these finished. You wouldn't believe me... P.A. Jr Muz 19.jpg P.A. Jr Muz 18.jpg They arrived on Wednesday, Thursday I drove them to the foundry to get patina,...

Welp, Back to the Donor Wall. Unfortunately I'm on hold for another week and a half. I have 15 of 20 strips at the shop. The remaining strips are still in Arizona getting etched. They're due to be shipped on Dec. 10th. Once I have them, they're off to get patina applied, and afterwords the lettering...

Back to the donor wall I'm working on. I finally wrapped my little head around this job. It's a Godzilla sized beast. Things are progressing. Haven't gotten the strips back from etching but I have received ten of the twenty strips from the land of patina. The foundry does amazing work, easily world-...

The worlds worse cross-over.

I don't know what to say about this... maybe... Sorry?


(Oh, it is the first Leela I've drawn since like for-ev-er.)

I've been reading/watching "Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid". As the title suggests Miss Kobayashi has a dragon for her maid. Fun light hearted series. First sketch is of Miss Kobayashi and her dragon maid (in human form), Tohru. Miss Kobayashi 1 - 100.jpg The drawing is a simple color study ...

(I know it's not Sunday. I didn't have my act together in time.) This is gonna need some serious explaining. Eventually this will be a donors wall, Y'know when somebody donates money to a project they get their name mounted somewhere. So what you're looking at is 20 strips of 1/4 inch bronze. Yes re...
