Swine Flu: Fashionable Surgical masks

Thankfully Toronto hasn't seen the swine flu yet. But I was thinking if I had to wear one... I would paint on a piggy snout like this.
(modified I-G@l piece I did a while ago)

Jonny Quest Documentary

I kind of stumbled onto this documentary trying to find the sound track of Jonny Quest

I'm shocked that this documentary was never released for dvd or doesn't have any kind of publisher behind this. It produced by fans, but a very professional and detailed documentary on Jonny Quest.

Everything from concepts, animation, music, layouts, writing. It covers everything.
This should documentary came out with the dvd series

The creators of this documentary have been very free in sharing their hard work.
You can find it to download here

or if you like you can watch it ready to watch on youtube Documentary starts at "quest 1". But the begining of the playlist is fun to watch too.

here's small snipit from the documentary about the music

editorial

In between work I've been trying to do some editorial samples.
I havn't posted much due to work. But here's something I've had on the back burner for a while. Hope to a have a small series of these.

TCAF +mothers day

I'm so worn out by yesterday.
I went to TCAF http://www.torontocomics.com/tcaf/.

I managed to swindle a spot with my friend Hilary Leung and partner in crime David Bruins.
The Legend of Ninja, Cowboy, Bear. Seeing the kids reaction of the kids was a riot. There were so many people.

I managed to check out some of the floor.
My friend was waiting in like to get a sweet portrait done by joe bluhm .
While just hanging out in line my friend was talking to none other then Kagan McLeod. He was really cool manged to talk to him for a while. His website is SWEET! Not only is his artwork brilliant. Is knowledge of old school kungfu is unbelievable. Plus a added bonus... the Sound on the website will keep you entertained for hours.

I manage to catch up with Bobby Chiu for a little bit. Man is always hard at work.. he doesn't seem to stop working!

I rant into my friend Eric Kim Another hard working guy. It was nice to catchup with him. He's been a very elusive fella like big foot. I always hear how Eric is doing from small circles.

unfortunately I had to rush out for mother's day so I didn't get a chance to see as much as I wanted. I did manage to catch Brian Lee O'Malley of Scott Pilgrim comic soon to be movie! The long line unfortunately didn't give me mucha chance to meet him in person.

Last stop before running home.

Derek Kirk Kim I didn't get a chance to talk to him much.. but totally envious of his work.. The guy can draw and tell a story.
got his sig and a doodle on his books!



And to top of the evening I went to my uncle and aunt's place.
Where his family shared a lot of laughs and good food. Vanessa, Tiffany, "B" and May, make the best food!!!!. I laughed as much as I ate last nite...
I'm still so tired.

life drawing

went to do some life drawing earlier in the week.. Felt a bit rusty. but I had fun

on a side note I saw this on the ToysRevil website. A ad for gloomy bears.
Man this look so sweet!
