"Where the Fuckin' magic Goes Down"

Hey MTV Cribs. Welcome to the offices of Chromium Dioxide. Here's where I draw & color. Work starts by 7:30 a.m & I stop at 10:15 for juice & a nap.

My board is actually an original one from Hanna Barbara - my favorite animation studio when I was a kid. Got this from one of their original animators. I met her in school. She had worked on Scooby-Doo, Quick Draw McGraw & Laugh Olympics. That blew my mind. She liked my "Jobbers" animation & said that I had appealing design skill & gave me the board. I think she just pitied me.

Awesome lazy Thursday

Today wasn't as productive as I had hoped. Had way too much fun for a Wednesday last night & really paid the price. Drew a bit, inked, & scanned, but really had a hard time with the writing. Total block. Times like that, it's just better to fuck off & go back to it later. Coffee & a double-bill screening of PSYCHOMANIA & DAWN OF THE MUMMY really stirred the creative juices again & the icing on the cake was that I found 2 & half 7-11 taquitos and a bag of Sour cream & Onion Ruffles in the freezer!? I have no memory of this, & while that does concern me, there was fuckin' taquitos! (note to self - gym tomorrow)

Stymi, my free-reign pet Squirrel, stopped by on the patio & I fed him some pistachios. He's a pretty decadent guy so I try to spice things up a bit for him. Occasionally he gets garlic croutons when we're out of nuts. Great day. Everyone was a winner at Chateaux Chromium.

*if you're wondering why my Indiana Jones mannequin has no pants, it's because I'm waiting on a WESTED LEATHER order.

NEW SHIRT DESIGN

COMING in 2011.

CHROMIUM 4!

Soon bask in the sweet pink neon of MIDNIGHT CHAMPAGNE ! Everything's done & I'm presently doing lay-outs. Perhaps, I'll even proof-read this one. I dunno. Can't promise. We're far too steel for that. Really excited about this one and the experience making it was a total laugh. First issue to come with sleazy fold-out color centrefold.

Costume Finished

Ha! Fuck you! Told you it'd be done. After months & months of painstaking research & money Ifinally finished this bastard off. I know, I know. I'm a nerd. I've accepted it a long time ago. So has my poor girlfriend. Just check out that sexy GQ pose on panel 4! God damn that's the one they were screaming for.

CHROMIUM III COMING SOON!

So, here's the cover! As usual we're having a lot of laughs making this thing. But more than laughs we're also suffering quite a fuckin bit to bring you the finest of toilet reads.

We've packed so much into this thing that some of it is already spilling over to the the 4th issue. Not gonna give away any secrets, but it's a rad read, if I may be so bold. Nothing life changing or awe-inspiring, I'm afraid, but you know...same old Chromium shannigan-isms.

Anyway, it's coming in late April, early May. So there. Get ready for issue 3 - "SCAZZARD'S REIGN: RETURN TO SCAZZARD.
