Stuff AND things!
Been a tad busy here at janky HQ finishing and editing the next activity book, but was able to knock out a few things for public comsumption. First, the always-radical Henry at Chunklet asked me to provide the illustration for a Wolves in the Throne Room poster!
As that wasnt fun enough, Patton asked for a quick jpeg-ster!
And not my drawing, but only eight years late, knocked out some Becky Sagers t-shirts! The Aaron Horkey drew the pic, based on a logo he drew for Rhymesayers records. These are only available through Mega Fauna in Japan, and come with a bonus button!
And don’t forget the Punk Rock Activity Book! In stores and Amazon.com now!
Ok, back to work i guess…
Patton!
made a lil’ jpeg poster for Patton Oswalt, one of the funniest men in America. If you don’t own them already, buy his records, they are well worth your time. Thanks again, Patton!
