I couldn't let @toughpigs.com Muppetational May go by without contributing at least one illustration, and of course I'm not gonna turn down an opportunity to draw Miss Piggy. I also had a hankering to draw her in the vintage Barbie illustration style, really happy with how the effect turned out!

Introducing, the Dread Pirate Frogerts! Been planning this outfit for my Kermit for a while now, but the motivation to actually get it done was hearing that Cary Elwes was announced as a guest for my local comic con! So with any luck Dread Pirate Frogerts will be getting to meet the real Westley

About a week ago I misplaced my best pair of scissors, I've checked all the usual places, checked drawers, etc... nothing. So I'm posting about it in the hopes that the universe decides the funniest thing would be to manifest them for me right after I complain to the internet about this situation

I got to chat with @jd11pc.bsky.social about Gertie the Dinosaur on this episode! Gertie is without a doubt one of the most influential short films of all time, animated or otherwise. It was such a pleasure to record this episode, please be sure to give it a listen!

Finally finished my latest Youtube video! Here's the making of my most recent 13 hour clock from Labyrinth (I say most recent because I'm now up to 5 Labyrinth clock replicas, I think at this point I'm obliged to make all of them eventually). youtu.be/wI6rgIaDxBk?...

Such an honour to be included in this! The Muppet fan community is truly the best community I've ever been a part of. Without a doubt the most welcoming, funniest, intelligent, and talented bunch of folks I've ever had the pleasure of rubbing (virtual) elbows with.

We sat down with Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy for a chat about the new Muppet Show! They're famous!!! www.toughpigs.com/interview-ke...

Our second season has begun! Anthony Strand returns for a look at vaudeville's influence on classic cartoons! sticktoshorts.com/podcast/show...

Okay so to celebrate my birthday, I updated my shop with some sick new shirt designs, go take a peek I hope you love them (Shares are much appreciated, it’s really hard to get reach sometimes!!) #art #merch #shirts #design genghiskait-shop.fourthwall.com

Happy David Bowie’s Birthday

My ideal podcast is one where each episode is just whatever random thing I wanna talk about. That way I can force all my friends to discuss whatever random fixation I'm on about that week.

I need groceries but it's that time of the year where the air outside hurts my face, so instead I'm staying inside and concocting meals from whatever detritus haunts my pantry ala Homer Simpson:

Signed prints of my Lord Of The Rings / Muppets trilogy are now up on jameshance.com ☺️❤️✨🎨 Don’t forget to use the code BUY2GET3 to get the third one for free!🎄

It's finally Piggy's week to shine! Actually scratch that, she shines every week. It's just finally time she gets the spotlight in the Muppets 70th celebration. I prepped this drawing ages ago because Piggy's the one week I knew I really didn't wanna miss! #TheMuppets70 #TheMuppets #MissPiggy

Saturday is the 55th anniversary of Jim Henson’s first Christmas special, “The Great Santa Claus Switch.” It introduced the 9-foot-tall Thog and a little guy in a cigar box who’d go on to become the Great Gonzo! Here’s our podcast about it with @muppetno.bsky.social & @muppetdude.bsky.social.

Debuting my latest Muppet replica tonight, my new Robin build! I took Kermit outside for his pics so it made sense to take Robin outside as well... though I did end up with a frosty butt thanks to forgetting to wear my snowpants. But sitting in some snow was worth it to get these fun shots.

There's an ad right now where instead of phones everyone's carrying ice cream cones and a man dejectedly looks at his cone after seeing someone with a new Google phone... and I genuinely had to search online what this add meant because I couldn't fathom why everyone was disappointed about ice cream

🎄 Today’s podcast is about The Muppets: The Sitcom: The Christmas Episode, which aired 10 years ago today. It’s got badly singing Mindy Kaling, barely singing Echosmith, an ok Secret Santa bit, an awful mistletoe bit, and our very special guests: @tallgirlpetunia.bsky.social & @jd11pc.bsky.social!

I'm finally able to share my contribution to this: a version of the Rider-Waite-Smith Empress tarot card of Grover's Mommy, the patron saint of Muppet Wiki.

Very happy to be celebrating @muppetwiki.com's 20th Birthday today! Editing a Wiki can be a pretty thankless job, so let's change that today and make sure we all let the folks behind Muppet Wiki know just how treasured they are!

Today, we're celebrating the 20th anniversary of @muppetwiki.com with over 20 original fan art pieces!

Not only did an article I nominated make it into the top 20, but an article I helped write made it in too! And I didn't have to bribe anyone to make that happen (Take THAT capitalism)! Happy Birthday @muppetwiki.com!

My mind immediately went to someone like Jim Cummings, especially if it includes cameos because presumably that means even if he was just listed under "Additional voices", I get to watch it. Really, any prolific voice actor feels like the right choice for this game

I'm genuinely curious how families who do the Elf on a Shelf thing manage to keep the illusion going, doesn't it kinda spoil the magic for kids when every store is selling the elves and accessories?

It’s that time,again! #Muppets

All the memeing on James Bond today is how I found out he died in the last movie, and I'm chuckling about it now because that means I narrowly avoided crying about it in theatres. See, my dad was a big James Bond fan, he passed away shortly before the release of the last movie...

So! I made a rad wrestling-adjacent shirt design for sickos and it’s for sale on my Fourthwall shop. You should buy it, because it’s Very Cool. #wrestling #art 🤼‍♂️ genghiskait-shop.fourthwall.com

I don't understand why socializing feels harder the older I get. You'd think I'd be at my most adept at it by now based solely on the amount of experience I have, and yet I still find myself constantly thunderstruck by hindsight... That lightbulb of "Oh, that's what I should've said"

“I’ve Heard Them Calling My name” 🐸 🪕 Original framed painting up on jameshance.com ✨🎨 If anyone asks why Kermit is playing right-handed, tell them “you don’t know my life!” and get the hell out of there. ❤️🫡

All of my forks and knives are in the dishwasher, and the dishwasher is in the middle of a cycle, so I guess I'm just gonna spoon this porkchop into submission

“Rizzo & Charles” Inktober Day 22 - Original framed painting now up on jameshance.com ❤️✨🎨 “I am here to tell the story.” “And I am here for the food.” 31 days of favorite characters!

It's been a while since I made a brand new Labyrinth prop replica, but here it is: The first 13 hour clock that you see in the film. I made my version with laser cut/engraved wood, mother of pearl, vinyl, poster paper, and resin.

I finally finished my next Youtube tutorial! This time it's a detailed guide on how to make your own Didymus Plush replica, just like the one from Sarah's Bedroom in Labyrinth! www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfO5...

Thinkin' about how as a kid I first heard the word "Dink" from Sharon, Lois & Bram, and I didn't know what it was also slang for so I called my Uncle a dink and got in trouble for it all while not knowing WHY I was getting in trouble (I kept trying to explain "It's just a funny word in a song!").

I have to assume everything will be completely out of my price range, but I really hope that we get some really good reference photos of all these props. If fans can't own the actual prop, at least we can replicate them!

Jim Henson would've been 89 years old today. Commemorate his life and legacy by celebrating creativity, diversity, imagination, peace, and just plain silliness. Walk with me a bit while I talk about Jim and his work--and leave your comments about what he means to you. Right this way. /1

It takes me so long to make prop replicas nowadays because I feel like I'm holding myself up to higher and higher standards of quality. Which always makes for a great end result, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss when I was managing to make a cool prop every month.

There was an extra large-sized spider hanging outside my front door a few nights ago and now every time I open my door I do so slowly, afraid it's 1. Gonna be out there again and 2. Take me opening the door as an invitation to come in.

In the latest Prairie Dawn Companion podcast, we're talking about some of the forgotten female characters from the '70s like Roosevelt Franklin's mom and Granny Fanny Nesselrode. All the hits! www.toughpigs.com/pdc-104/

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

I bought a few craft kits/activity kits for my Nephew but the problem is I ALSO want to dig up a fake dinosaur tooth/smash open a geode, so it's extremely tempting to keep these kits for myself

I had really bad arachnophobia as a kid so I had to get my older sister to beat Gohma for me in Ocarina of Time. Which I find funny looking back, because as an adult Gohma doesn't really feel all that spidery to me anymore (Especially compared to Armagohma in Twilight Princess!)

New episode of our A PRAIRIE DAWN COMPANION podcast! It's time we talk about Betty Lou, transmedia, and the Smurfette Principle. With special guest: puppeteer Stoph Scheer! www.toughpigs.com/pdc-102/
