I can’t recommend working with great funny people enough. All I had to do was spend years trying to do comics, then doing pin-ups, then doing comics, a ton of nerdcore things, impressing the right people at 1up, transition to gaming fan art, doing a lot of book covers, comedian flyers, con shirts,

I think I’m at 100% for author portraits on 1900HOTDOG now. I think it would be neat/weird if I had one. Weird because I’m just the draw draw guy, but neat because I would poop it out in 5 minutes because it’s funnier that way.

Like so. Double Mustard Rustard for the TL

I have to admit I have never asked if Big Belly Burger had a alcohol permit but I guess tonight that has been answered. Thank you for your hard work, @jamesgunn.bsky.social

And I can sell the base print to outside of the US customers to print themselves and bypass shipping so that’s rad

These are coming along real nicely and I like the uniformity. Works as an art piece (same high grade photo paper) as well as functional. Not gonna be able to do these with the real games that often if ever aside from maybe something like tomb raider because $$$

The Pope's got my back against all the folks who are about to get really weird and discoursey (again) about the word "metroidvania"

I had never played it until my current run, and yeah, it’s not that bad! It’s a C+ released in a series that we’re all A’s at that point, so I get it.

Nothing against pop, but yeah the more people want it to be taken as the gospel it’s like ok there’s a reason people swim out to deeper musical waters, calm down

Bringing up Kendrick or Chuck D like bringing Shin Akuma to a Dan fight

the funny thing about my RE2 piece is on the original pencils we were doing some gag about death metal logo type stuff so there's a "lost dog" one, and a bit of "Dave Lartigue" in the corner. So i have to think about @daveexmachina.bsky.social everytime i see it.

(it is weirdly funny to me that I journeyed from making posters of new case art for old games to literally making those new arts into actual game cases. All it took was a solid printer. Invest in yourself, b's)

Added the remaining 2 REs I did, tempted to make art for Code Veronica now
