New Lego Builds

New MOC’s from yesterday

Bomberman



As you know, I nerd out with Lego and call it design! Not too long ago I finished making the four characters from this game based off the Wii version (which I can’t get enough of). Click on either the pic to see the entire set (opens in new window).


The initial mock ups always have the most character!

More Lego stuff

Updated my Flickr page with new Lego creations. See all of them here!



Gifts from next door

While I normally don’t post anything art related (or not by me), this is the exception. Well, for one, food is art. And two, since it was given to Steph and I, we kinda do have ownership of it… so I guess this post isn’t too far off topic after all.

Anyways, we have a neighbor who’s a pastry chef. For the past three weeks, he and his wife have given us treats that he makes at work (it’s a conspiracy to get us chubby). Believe it or not, they’re tastier than they look – and they look mighty tasty!

This first one was a chocolate torte that tasted like Twix. I had a slice every morning!

Mini-lemon tarts… not too tart and just the right amount of sweet.

Tiramisu

This post is dedicated to my friend from Japan who’s looking into becoming a pastry chef. Based on what I’ve seen her design, I know that she can totally do it!

Screenprinting

Last Saturday, the EKGM crew took a screenprinting class in the Mission. We each created an 8.5 x 11″ poster that featured our logo and mission statement. Being on a recent analog kick, I went with a non-digital design:


Here are some of the other items I produced while there:

Lastly, here’s a collage I made using everyone’s poster:

You can check out everyone’s posters at the EKGM blog. Peace.

Legos: 1st installation

I love Legos. Always have, always will. Here are some MOC’s (my own creation) I made some time ago. When I get the chance, I’ll create instructions… I might even package them as my own sets and use them as gifts!

1st Quarter Pics

I’m taking a photojournalism class this semester and am finding that good pictures don’t come that often. However, I have managed to take a few that I really like. I’m assuming that the more I shoot, the better I’ll get. Anyways, here are my favs so far:

Animated GIF VS. Liyah

I was sorting through my Photojournalism pics and found two that screamed “animate me”. The animated munchkin is my niece Liyah during her 4th Bday:

*big up to g face g for showing me how to animate gifs

Sketch Swap

About a week ago, I came across Sketch Swap. It is what it sounds like – you draw a sketch and you get one in return. What makes it cool is that you get to view the entire process of the sketch you receive! I used about 20 minutes of today on it. Here’s the best one I got back:


Oh yeah, don’t forget to sign your drawing (excitement made me forget to do that on the first one)

Crush-O-Matic

Crush-O-Matic is a Funk Festival in SF showcasing DJs, Live Art, B-boys, and fashion (read more here). I’ll be in the city that day, so I’ll be stopping by and showcasing my AM90: WTRMLNs and other art in addition to selling Baduizm prints at $5. Stop on by and show some love. Peace.
