It has been awhile, too long, and i feel like Mr. Incredible.  Edna Mode's words hitting me hard, "My god you've gotten fat!" and lazy, not physically... okay a little but mostly artistcally fat and lazy.  I got married last November and i've been enjoying every minute of life as a husband but i really let myself go when it came to artwork.  Been trying to draw every day here in March, might post some of that, it's pretty bad.  
   
   But i haven't returned to promote myself but an AMAZING show that is being cancelled and should not be.  Sym-Bionic Titan, Genndy Tartakovsky (and friends') supurb piece of cartooning mastery.  I don't know what can be done as it looks like Cartoon Network has made up their mind but i just needed to say something.  If you're on facebook go like the group, sign the petition, send a comment to CN if you like, if nothing more and you haven't already, find and watch this show!  Enjoy it, drink it in, cause i imagine it will be some time before something this beautiful is on tv again.  
   
   And lastly, thank you all who have continued to comment and fav my work, happy to see that even in my absence some of my work is still enjoyed, i'll have more up soon

Ah just wedding bells.  Well as some of you already know i asked my lovely girlfriend of 6 years to marry me at the start of this month.  Took me awhile to announce it i know, lol shame on me.  We just got our blog set up, still working on the look of it, but we'd love if you'd stop by from time to time and see how we're doing.  Our date is set for November 6 2010 so lots of time ahead of us but we're planning lots of fun artsy stuff, gonna try and animate a few shorts to put in our slideshow so be sure to tune in for updates on that.  For now stop by, check out the engagement pictures (i was lucky enough to get my soon to be sister in law, a much sought after photographer, to capture the moment) and thanks so much for the support, comments and prayers

Okay so just finished up a couple months of pretty steady enjoyable work and now somehow i've become sapped of all inspiration.  I totally wasted all of last week and don't want to let myself get away with that again.  So i thought it'd be fun to get some ideas from my friends here.  
   If you have any ideas for me go ahead and leave me a comment here.  I'd like to keep them simple one word ideas: animals, items, emmotions, no "super awesome robot cow that shoots lasers from its udders fighting an alien squid."  As cool as that may sound i want to keep this simple for now lol.  And no fanart ideas either please.  I'll take those ideas and try to do one every business day, and i'm going to try and stick to the order in which they're posted just so i don't do all the fun ones first.  Anyway, i appreciate any words thrown my way and as always i appreciate so much all the comments and favs and just sticking around, you guys and gals rock, God Bless

My buddy and I have combined forces yet again to bring you SpellBounce mousehog.com/games/spellbounce…

We gave our best in the Batman: Brave and the Bold competition but ultimately came up short, alas our skills were not enough for the Dark Knight.  But it was a lot of fun and showed us just what we are capable of and somehow we still really enjoy working together lol.  So we threw together Spellbounce for another competition and well i really fell in love with it, realised just how crappy a speller i am but it's a good time waster when i need one.  After some interesting developments on that game we threw together yet another word game Guess It  mousehog.com/games/guess-it/&n… funny enough i really enjoy this one too.  Not as smooth playing as SpellBounce and much more frusterating at times but fun all the same.  Being the genius thinker/programmer he is, Tony came up with some great games, i had the awesome opportunity to make them pretty and just thought i'd share, more to come, enjoy

Or the son of death at least,rebel-penguin.deviantart.com/a… i've finally given up on trying to make him into a toy myself so i've handed it over into the very capable hands of www.patchtogether.com/?

For those that haven't heard how PatchTogether works, if the design gets enough votes they'll opt to take preorders and if enough people show interest a cute new toy everyone can enjoy will be born.  So please go vote www.patchtogether.com/?Designs…

In other news, my programmer friend and i have entered the WB/Mochads, create the next Batman Brave and the Bold game contest.  Had two months to throw together a game along with 9 other teams and now we're waiting to see how we place.  We're both very proud of the game, if nothing more it was a great learning experience and i'll be sure to let you all know when it's up and playable.  As always thanks to all of you who comment and keep me smiling, you are all a real blessing and i should have some new work flowing soon.  God bless.
