TMNT



i recently just saw the new TMNT movie. aside from the loopy plot and dated "cowabunga" lines the movie was very good. i thought the animation and the action poses in this film were excellent. they finally got the turtles right this time. i based my design on the old school comic and just sprinkled some of my ideas into this pic. my only wish is that the turtles were not for kids and more violent, hence the blood. anyways thats just me. hope you like it and thanks for visiting.

Goodbye 'Cap



growing up as a kid i was a huge comic book collector. i remember when they killed superman and how that turned into a huge joke (remember the reign of the supermen? ...lol). as a child i remember saying that captain america is the superman of marvel and that marvel would never kill captain america. yesterday all that changed. we'll miss you 'cap! here's to you man!

Jamesus

this is a caricature of my friend james sorrenti (he looks like jesus.). i met james (minus the dreads) when we both started working at a local best buy together six years ago. he is currently a "genius" at the apple store in staten island. he also works as a musician and freelance film editor in his spare time. whenever you have any ipod problem and are in staten island be sure to drop it off and let "jamesus" use his divine powers to fix or replace it for you. james, thanks for keeping me updated with all my software and mac needs. much appreciated.

Let's Go Mets!


well another baseball season is on the horizon as spring training began two weeks ago. I worked on this design last year during the playoffs and never really gave much thought to the background. i wanted to add a little more mets flair. the mets colors are very difficult to work with so i tried my best to make them work. this is obviously inspired by those tacky car decals of calvin "pee-ing " on a logo. i thought it would be funnier to have mr. met take a leak all over the most hated team in baseball, the yankees. sorry if this offends yankee fans, its intended to. Let's Go Mets!
