BATTLE! Pooptooth vs. Hobo divine!

Hello! On the weekend myself and my best funky pal, Jamie Mason, aka 'Hobo Divine' pushed play on our Roxanne Shante tape and had a BBBAAAATTTTTLLLEEEEE!


HD started off strong as you can see, as I waited impatiently for my turn to step up...
I challenged with 'the wave', I think it was like... 2:55 in the afternoon...
HD came back strong and busted out a floating turtle while sporting a civil war rebel hat. FRESH! I sat back FURIOUS...hitting myself in the head because he totally had me with that move...
I retaliated with a back spin, and trumped his rebel hat with a king tut crown (fucking thing weighed a ton). I did a back spin and then froze. The anxiety got the best of Hobo Divine, causing him to barf in his hat. HD came back with a head spin which knocked my socks off, so I put on his barf hat in shame and demanded a time out.
At the end of the battle, a rainbow came out because it was sunny, but rained a little bit (which caused the rainbow). We shook hands, because after all, we are best funky pals, but I was still not completely pleased with the outcome.

The End.

POG BLOG!

A while back I was asked by a toy company to design some POG type toys. I was super excited! They were getting a few different artists to do some samples...y'know like as a test to see whose design style they liked best. I did a couple and they said 'thanks, but no thanks'...it just wasn't what they were looking for. Then I got a call a couple of days later saying, "We need like 30 POG designs...when can you get 'em done!" Excited again! Too bad they never ended up manufacturing them. Here are a few...

Need some storyboard work?

I don't really like posting job oportunities on my blog, but I need some board artists for a series that I'm directing for Disney called "Yin Yang Yo" and board artists seem to be tough to find these days.

It's a really cool comedy/action type show with some great talent attached. It's written by Steve Marmel, who wrote on Fairly Odd Parents, and created by Bob Boyle, art director of the same show. Not to mention, blog superstar Todd "Kauf" Kauffman is assistant directing, and his Neptoon Studios chum Mark Thornton is supervising design.

Note, we can hire Canadians only...sorry Americans!!!!

If you are interested, please drop me an e-mail.

Thanks!

Mark
