DIY joke: for Ed & Batman edition...

give away your season tickets for bobblehead night to two of your good buddies... rag on them all night about how bad you want the bobblehead, and that one of us jerks better give ours up... and this is what happens:
 
absolutely GORGEOUS night for a baseball game. chill in the air... just beautiful:

our Buccos won, raise the jolly roger! any fan would be pissed that they missed that one.
 
bobblehead aftermath...
 
snatched up a couple of stones and a railroad spike from behind my office:

DIY commission: the man, Efra...

this time rather than DIYing something myself, i wanted to commission an original piece.
 
specifically, this gem from Chamuco's Studios artist: Efra Sanchez.

i'm a HUGE fan of his work and wanted something for my collection.
 
i wasn't sure what to get, but i definitely wanted something custom. so we based it off of these Invaders jerseys:

his great work really speaks for itself though:

once again, awesome job Efra! thanks for your hard work

happy 2013!

hope you all had the best holiday season!
 
sorry for the extended absence from the blog, but really i don't have a ton to share right now.
 
i've been really busy converting old logos into Adobe Illustrator format, and cleaning them up a bit for my web portfolio. i'm really excited to kick that off soon. in the meantime, i've put together about 4-5 Houndogg Designs hooded sweatshirts, but it's all stuff you've seen... nothing too ground breaking. but i'm totally ready to get back to making some pretty cool stuff to post here!
 
anyway, wishing you all the best in 2013! as always, stay tuned...
