I just received a quartet of blank android figurines from DeadZebra and upon sitting down to figure out what I wanted to do with them design-wise I realized that a template would come in pretty handy. Instead of redrawing the same little guy over and over in sketch form I decided to ease the process by making an easily printable 8.5″x11″ pdf. Download, print, design away.
Earlier this week I found time to slap together a button for PAX Prime 2010. Playing on my JonnyBrokenBones gamer ID, it features a lettermark, bloody splatters, and imperceptibly small background patterning of the Blue Bomber himself. Weighing in at 1.25″ and in a limited edition run of 100, this will be THE pin to get at this year’s PAX West.
See you in Seattle.
I wanted to post a link to this on my site since it was something that I participated in and very minorly helped make possible:

Jerry explains it better than I can. My only part in this was to have partcipated in the Card Sharks event at PAXEast, meeting up with people, trading some cards with people at the show, and adding my card to the binder that was eventually presented to the PA guys.
Dave (@DaveSchrader on Twitter), the man who spearheaded the entire trading card idea, deserves the bulk of the credit since he spent the time and made the effort to present our cards during one of the PAX panels, and when gifted with a really expensive piece of hardware acknowledged that the Card Sharks was a community effort, and unselfishly gave it back to PA to be auctioned off for the Child’s Play charity.
And now I present for your viewing pleasure, JonnyBrokenBones:

So I’ve slapped on my blogging training wheels and am trying to a bit more update focused. Since I’ve been away from the drawing tablet for quite some time and am attempting to get my sketching skills back up to snuff, I’m going to make an earnest effort to post my successes and failures here.
Today’s offering: Funny looking babyish t-rexafunkasaurus.
