Skate Punk. Hope you guys like puns as much as I do. This is in the same series as Pizza Party and Knife Fight.

Here’s that alternate cover for the Way Bad book again, but I went ahead and shaded in the background to make it less impossible to look at it.

Finally, here’s the layer with just the characters and logos to the alternate Way Bad book cover I was talking about here. There’s gonna be a rad launch party soon. Pay attention to this Tumblr and to Permanent Sleep’s (they’re the ones putting it out) for details on that.

Here’s the background to the alternate book cover I was talking about here.

The Way Bad book’s all printed, and to celebrate, here’s an alternate cover that ended up not being used. The original plan was for this to be a special type of cover. The background (the pile of stuff) was gonna be printed on the actual book cover and colored in blue. The characters and text were gonna be printed all in green on a cellophane page that covered the whole thing to make a complete image. Kinda like an animation cell on top of a background. You’d flip the cellophane page to reveal just the pile of stuff underneath.
The cover that’s ACTUALLY being used is like a postcard with the cover graphic on it embedded in the book cover. Rad shit. Get stoked.
Permanent Sleep’s putting this shit out. Follow their Tumblr: permanent-sleep.tumblr.com.

If anybody out there thinks there’s not enough skateboarding on here, this one’s for you, I guess. All of these are based on photos from the Fall 2011 issue of Lowcard.

Here’s that last one again, but I colored it in. I gotta figure out how to get a decent scan; the colors don’t look as good here as they do in real life, and you can’t even SEE the grey shading on the skull.

It’s been a while, but here’s a new one. What do we got here? A whole bunch of awesome shit crowbarred together. Surfin’ a wave of skull puke.

I don’t know if color ever did anything to deserve it, but I’ve started fucking around with color. Here’s some early experiments. Lemme know if you think this whole ‘Way Bad in color’ thing might end up being a half-decent venture somewhere down the line. I like the ‘fun in the sun’ one.

Fuck hangovers. On a lighter note, my brother told me an awesome way to reheat pizza: throw that day old bitch in a frying pan with a lid on it, and cook it up on the stove top for a few quick minutes. Stays crispy, AND cooks the top, and doesn’t turn it into a grease sponge like the microwave does.

I keep forgetting to hype my shit, so here comes a steaming pile of hype:
HYPE 1: Keep ordering the KILL FLIP zine me and Luke Pelletier did. It’s 16 pages of scumbag drawings, most of which you won’t find anywhere else. Not even the internet, not even Costco. Get more info on it here. It’s only $3, shipping included. Go to Way Bad to order.
HYPE 2: Go to this skateboard-oriented-artists art show/zine launch that the aforementioned Luke Pelletier’s put together. Some of my turds have been polished and put in frames for this, but there’s also legit artists like Michael Sieben, Wes Humpston, Jimbo Phillips and Dennis McNett up in there — that’s CRAZY! Legends status!
HYPE 3: I know there’s been a lot of big talk about me finally making prints lately, but that’s coming true soon, I promise. Don’t blow all your money on Lazer Tag and sexting bills just yet. Save some of that for art that will drop in value til your neighbour’s house actually depreciates.
HYPE 4: More cool shit coming down the pipe that I’m not ready to talk about.
HYPE 5: Pay me to do art for your album cover, or magazine or t-shirt company. (Alright, that’s not hype, that’s scrounging.)
Alright, that’s it. You made it through the hype. Back to pictures of rats skateboarding and skeletons drinking.

Holy crap this one took a long time.
*NOTE: The original scan was replaced with a much better one on February 20th, 2012
