Watching Barton Fink again and realizing A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS is a wrestling picture.

"Hey Sen, how's the comic going?"

Every oil painting reel does “the jump” and it makes me mad each time.

“Clout“ — a weird sfx I’ve only seen twice, I think

Process for a recent GODFATHER Six Panel Cinema.

Shed painting #2

Came across a 12 year old Jeff on the team my son played tonight. First non-middle aged Jeff I’ve found in a long time. He used a pinch runner. Classic Jeff shit.

Not all the time but sometimes there’s nothing harder to draw than the brim of a baseball cap. I never know when it’s going to happen.

Warming up. Pencils for my GF1 Six Panel Cinema. I did a hand drawn SFX and I liked it.

Scanning thumbnails for a double Six Panel Cinemas for Godfather 1&2. Might fuck around and make it a triptych.

Thumbnailing a pair of Six Panel Cinemas.

My favorite part of the Godfather is the little kick Carlo gives the camera after Sonny smashes it. Makes me howl every time

Recent oil painting of my shed. Might make a series of them.

Hugo Pratt’s CORTO MALTESE

Somewhere there’s a timeline where 100 BULLETS is the greatest television show ever made and now into its 9th season.

one of those days

The cheapest shittiest fold out chair IKEA has is called the “Jeff”.

When I was a smoker I preferred soft packs because I thought they looked cool and liked smoking fucked up looking cigarettes I guess.

Remember when 9 out of 10 movies had a montage with Green Onions playing over it?

I like when a comic script challenges me to draw something different and usually don’t have an answer to “what do you like to draw?” I absolutely have an answer for “what do you not like to draw?” Convenience store interiors. Fuck those things. Awful. Cursed.

writing an e-mail and getting a prompt from AI "this sentence could be more concise" no. i am verbose. i am loquacious. i am long-winded and often redundant even. you machine, do not tell me how to form my words

Considering doing this WWII submarine horror idea for my next OGN. Whole thing takes place on the sub. Exteriors are a piece of cake. The interiors on the other hand…

Rewatching THE TERMINATOR. This movie rocks. They should stop with the future oriented sequels and just remake this. A slasher movie with sci-fi trimmings.

Sold.

Holy shit it was George Smiley that shot Joe Pesci in GOODFELLAS.

Good thumbnails make great pages.

Penciling a wagon train.

Two hour self portrait.

One is going east and the other one is going west, so what?

Big Trouble In Little China & The Golden Child are from the same cinematic universe.

Pencils from my “A Brief History of George Smiley.” short.

Penciling.

Dangerously close to wrapping up the family portrait

This spread is incredible.

HOFFA (1992) is a personal favorite. Between DeVito playing a heavy, the rubber nose, I don’t know why but it plays.

ALIEN edges out ALIENS by the only metric that matters when judging one film vs another: which one is Harry Dean Stanton in.

Forget shopping carts. What you do with a piece of gum you’re done chewing when there’s no trash can in sight tells me what kind of person you are.
