Thimbleweed Park game box (produced and released by Fangamer in partnership with Terrible Toybox) sitting on top of the Maniac Mansion and Secret of Monkey Island boxes

Thimbleweed Park box sitting on a stack of other LucasArts adventure game boxes

I always get a kick out of seeing the Thimbleweed Park box (which I did the art for) displayed with LucasArts boxes. Kinda surreal honestly!

The Secret of Monkey Island, Monkey Island 2, Star Control II, Final Fantasy VIII, Chrono Trigger, Ace Attorney 1-2-3, Papers Please, Ghost of Tsushima, Disco Elysium

love having long convos with fictional characters

I also use this line a lot (for some reason, many opportunities came up) so my eyes lit up when I saw this IG post (I even checked to see if she was joking and referencing the Simpsons but it was totally sincere)

I'm all for reduce, reuse, recycle, but I also have to use the bathroom

Instagram video showing a woman tying a cable around her pants as a belt. Text: "Old com puter cables are part of the 62 million tonnes of e-waste generated globally every year. So why not turn cables into belts?"

ragging on her cord

that's Japanese for "haters"

Originally wanted to give it 3.5 stars but bumped it because it was 2.5 hours and held my attention the whole time

#lastfourwatched Catching up on Oscar nominees like "The Guy Who Needs Money To Go To Japan" and "The Man Who's Really Good At Building A Cabin From Scratch"

hell yeah, been loving all the JCVD this month

Screenshot of ConcernedApe (creator of Stardew Valley) on Twitter saying "can't have too many krobuses" in response to this plush release

Stardew Valley - Incognito Krobus Plush Psst... Hey, it's me, Krobus. Could you recognize me?  Designed by Nina Matsumoto, this official Stardew Valley plush is about 8.5 inches tall when seated, making it easy to see over if you're sitting...

get it here: www.fangamer.com/collections/...

A plush of the Krobus from Stardew Valley disguised in a trenchcoat, hat, and sunglasses. It comes with a magnetic plush popcorn bag

I designed a plush of an ordinary human going to the movies (as humans do) for Stardew Valley. Can't believe @fangamer.com let me design something so normal

that's an especially pervy Kojima character

Brian Carmody has been doing amazing work converting my art to the CD design format he came up with

The family of legendary composer Nobuo Uematsu, known for his work on the Final Fantasy series, announced that he is dead serious about being alive and thriving

Initial rough sketch of the ENA Dream BBQ OST cover art

Finished cover art (front and back)

rough sketch vs. final

small correction: these aren't available yet, but you can sign up on their website to be notified as soon as they are

Mockup of the ENA Dream BBQ vinyl -- front cover. The art depicts ENA playing maracas, Taski singing on a retro mic, Coral Glasses on violin, and Froggy in the background on a pipe organ. They're all dressed up in classy alternate outfits. The vinyl disc is red, blue, and white, and has ENA's face as the label.

The back of the vinyl. The art on the back is a continuation of the front, showing more of the background. Nude human legs stick out from the red sea, and glitching diamond-shaped crystals are emitting beams of light. Yellow cones are spread across the sky. The vinyl record is royal blue with a pearl ripple effect, and the label looks like the burnt hole in Humanesque ENA's torso with a flaming outline of ENA's face inside it.

The inside gatefold artwork -- a two-page spread depicting a vast empty rocky landscape under an ominous red sky with yellow cones hovering above. Humanesque ENA crawls on the ground, regular ENA stands in the middle slumped over with her arms hanging limp, and Green ENA leans forward toward the camera.

The CD version of the ENA Dream BBQ soundtrack. The cover artwork is the same as the vinyl. The CD disc itself is a crop of Coral Glasses from the cover, in monochromatic green.

I drew art for the ENA Dream BBQ OST! I got to come up with fancy new fits for the major characters. Available in both vinyl and CD 🎉

can't wait for End of End of Evangelion For Reals 3.4509

The sea lion also had access to a pool inside its transportation trailer with clean water. Prior to filming the scene, wranglers set up a private area for sea lion while remaining close to a water source. Before they moved the sea lion from its trailer to the set, production made sure the floor was clean and clear of debris or safety hazards. There was an easy entrance and exit to and from set for sea lion. There was also plenty of space for sea lion to move through garage doorway. Once the pathway was clear, the wranglers guided the sea lion to the set using a bucket of fish to entice him to his mark on the basketball court.

The set of the TV series Shogun in Port Moody, BC. Many feudal-era Japanese buildings are seen behind a locked chain fence, with mountains in the background

came across the set of Shogun season 2 (this is the second time they built this -- they tore down the first one)

that's gotta be the wrong way to store them though. The dust is falling straight into the contacts!!

finally, Bob has his own logo

Disney could never
