benchilada: (Time Lord Seal Doctor Who Tattoo)


HEY ARTISTS!!!

Wanna maybe make some dosh?

I’ve decided what my next tattoo—numero quarto—will be. Mostly. I have the subject, and I’d like it to be slightly different than just a dead-copy of any of the source material, so I’m asking y’all.

If you’re up for doing some loose sketching based on what I have in mind, let me know via e-mail. moxy@tmbg.org

If I totally dig your design, I’ll pay you
for a full version that I can get inked onto me. Size of the piece hasn’t been decided yet, but I can’t imagine it being any bigger than 4 inches x 6 inches. Probably.

And no, I shan’t tell you what it is unless you’re interested in applying for the job. :P I will tell you that machinery is involved, but a smooth hand will be required, too.

I’m really fucking excited.
The latest addition to my BENJAMIN-AS-INTERNET-MONKEY-KING drawing pile.

This one is by Tim [livejournal.com profile] iconotrast  Hamilton.



Y'all really NEED to go back to my previous entries with the Monkey King / Bizarro art I've gotten from people and look at 'em again.

FRIEND THESE ARTISTS! 
SUPPORT THEM!

A number of them do other artwork online, in print, and one on people's skin, and it's through word of mouth that their work really gets spread. And getting their work spread can get them money / jobs that will make the starving part of their artistry a little easier.

Smooches,

I went a little crazy with my dvd list posts last night, so we'll go easy on me this morning.

Next up in the PHOTOS OF MY LIFE request stream is Batshit Insane Belgian artist [info]grafunkel...
He requested:

"A picture of all your AWESOME FRAMED/UNFRAMED ARTWORK!!!"

There are, in the first picture, TWO arts by THREE LJ artists.
There are, in the second picture, TEN arts by LJ artists.
The shots aren't the clearest ever, as my camera got dropped recently and is now a bit wonky. :(

Anyway, name all that you can. Maybe you'll win a prize or something.

Avatar Press--based here out of Champaign-Urbana and publishers of works by, amongst others, Warren Ellis and Alan Moore--is searching for artists.

ALL THE DETAILS ARE HERE.

Check out the kind of stuff they dig, then get on it, my artist-monkey friends.

Current Sir Reginald art update:

[livejournal.com profile] jimmahgee = Has had original Sir Reg story written for him to draw
[livejournal.com profile] andyluke = We're coordinating a new story for him to draw
[livejournal.com profile] the_crowchan = Am writing original story for her to draw
[livejournal.com profile] chuckdawg = Has laid claim to illustrating the first Sir Reginald story
[livejournal.com profile] grafunkel = Has laid claim to illustrating
the Man-X story
[livejournal.com profile] mearn4d10 = Is working on "Perspectived Sir Reginald" piece (whatever that means)

EDIT: [livejournal.com profile] scud_o = Will be doing a film version of the Man-X story
[livejournal.com profile] fairyarmadillo = Will be doing a photoplay I will write for her, starring her lovely [livejournal.com profile] locura_insomnio

Anybody else I'm missing?
Who was it that said they wanted to do a Sir Reginald photo project?

Want a piece of the action? Nothing will be rejected, even if your art is as bad as mine.

Let me know if you want to lay claim to a previously written story or if you want an original one. If you want the latter, let me know what format you want it written in, i.e. five pages, one released each day; comic strip format; one big silly splash page; et cetera.

Someday maybe we'll get to anthologize these, in the manner of Project: Superior and the like.

FLY, MONKEYS, FLY!
