Since I don't have enough to do, my buddy Peter and I have set out to create our own skateboards. If you've read my blogs enough, you know I like to go all out when I make something from scratch. I may have some videos and pictures coming soon documenting the process. But until I have visual proof, enjoy the moch-up I made of my awesome twin tipped, robot-squid drop deck design. I really can't wait to finish this deck. I'm going to call upon my good buddies to help me out with the graphics. It will be the same awesome quality as the INSANE banner that was printed for my New York Comic Con appearance. Stay tuned.

Jason Copland and Michael May (no relation) have a great web comic called Kill All Monsters. It's updated weekly on Fridays. I always tune in and check out the new pages. I really enjoy the story. It's an action packed all out monster squishing spree drawn in a nice gritty loose style. I asked Jason Copland (the artist) to send some sample images of one of the robots so I could do a pinup. Here is what I came up with. Hope you enjoy. Be sure to go check out their comic!

I was very scepticalabout these "blocks." They are essentially biodegradable packing peanuts. I'm assuming you can use starch style peanuts in the same manner. You would just be limited by the colors packing stores offer.

I sat down with the family and we laid out the blocks. Of course, I had to join in. After helping folks get the hang of attaching them, I started on my robotic masterpiece. I will also share a few creations from my six year old, four year old and two year old. Enjoy the show.
