After the last crazy awesome drawing, I had my eye on a set of Laurel & Hardy films from A Whiter Shade Of Pale… I thought I’d try my luck with the next installment in the Dragon saga.
This is what was waiting for me when I got back from China (click to enlarge!):
I’m so impressed by the effort that’s gone into the drawings! It makes me wonder if you could illustrate an entire kids book by asking random on-line stores to draw the scene on packaging..
Thanks again A Whiter Shade Of Pale!
I recently ordered a Super 8 projector (a Bell & Howell 357B) to spur me on to finish a super 8 short with my Canon 814 — I thought I’d have a little fun with the order details… (click to expand) How awesome is that! Thanks to Awhitershadeofpale for taking the time and effort to …
Because it was such a gorgeous day and to test drive my new Canon 7D, Andy and I drove into Downtown L.A. for this year’s Red Bull Soapbox Derby. It’s actually the first time I’ve been back to Downtown since last March, it hasn’t changed much.. ..Although having said that, the place was completely overtaken …
Since moving to LA, I’ve been able to indulge myself in some (mostly quite eccentric) consumerism, and have treated myself to some fun stuff: A vintage typewriter. I feel like emails, facebook, IM’s, etc… are a bit boring and disposable; you never really need to put any amount of effort and thought into what you write. …
A few weeks ago, Mehreen flew out to L.A. to see me, which I was really looking forward to. I’ll probably make another post about that, but in the meantime, bask in the glory of us crossing off a pretty epic (and esoteric) entry in our to-do list. To give a little background, the first time …
I took advantage of the nice weather (blue skies, like every day since I arrived) and spent the day on the beach at Santa Monica. I rather enjoyed the sea air and that. Almost makes up for the fact that americans don’t get a 4 day weekend for easter :’( I stopped by the Apple store on …
I’m off to work for a month in L.A, in just under an hour and a half. I bet I’ve forgotten to pack something important. Like my passport. I’ll post properly when I’ve got a moment and some photos or something to share, right now I’m struggling enough to stay awake as it is. Work has …
Work’s been pretty demanding lately, I haven’t had chance to do anything lately. Oh well, lots of overtime. Pretty great 70’s photo above, I think you’ll agree. Jim
So I built a matchbox pinhole camera using the instructions on www.matchboxpinhole.com. A pretty easy build, the instructions are straightforward and the design is very clever — the ‘clicker’ is genius and worked really well for me. I’ve been discussing with Robin what improvements to make on the next version — I think if I …
