well thanks everyone for your conchords posters orders, i still have some left of some of the posters, unfortunately the glow in the darks sold out in about 2 seconds, so my apologies to those i refunded. if i could print a million i would.

i learned a few things, one being that i should set up a more traditional store/checkout system. at least according to my friend cris dabica. so, i'll get working on that.
tstout.com 2.0.

you can also check out the migration 2 print under tstore, while not for sale, i do have them printed and a photo of them for your viewing pleasure. those will be available soon through postersandtoys.net . email me if you'd like to be added to my mailing list for further information regarding their release date.

what a start to a new year. all work.

a few things: updates in the illustration and poster sections. in the posters its a poster i did for the upcoming movie Hell Ride, a movie inspired by those classic 60's/70's biker movies. there will be a screenprint of this down the road, but not at the moment.

in the illustration section, i have added work for adidas heritage week, some burton snowboard gloves, some burton hangtags and a shaun white snowboard base.

also sarah has recently added some new toys under the tstoys section.

well, as we get ready to enter into 2008, i have decided to leave the comfortable confines of Copious Creative and strike out on my own. i've enjoyed the last 3 years of working with Tim and Patrick and everyone else, and will miss their pungent aroma, though i'm sure our working relationship will continue.

i'm now officially unemployed, and have begun work on converting my garage into a studio, so any tips on that are welcome. i hope to have many new prints this upcoming year, and i will be updating the illustration section soon with new work for Burton Snowboards, Adidas, Xbox360 and a few more. its been a heck of a year, appreciate all the support and feedback. hopefully i haven't been too much of a jerk to anyone.
