Those are great Matt. The skeleton has a neat lookin' illustrative style to it. It looks like the kind you would find in a old kids book about pirates. The Zombie is rad too. Nice 3Dism with the drinkin hand bustin' out the frame. A series would be killer! Always a treat to see the new stuff.

Nice work, Matt.
If you're doing drink-themed stuff, you should do one for your very own "Kinky Tiki" -- maybe a Bettie Page-type figure with a tiki mug in one hand and a whip in the other?

I actually had shirts for that drink made in 1998. I still have some laying around. Maybe I'll try and get it going again. Thanks for the suggestion. You want a shirt? Let me know and the next time we go have a drink I'll give it to you.
Cheers.

matt , here's a trick . scotch tape a little strip of toilet paper across your flash on your camera . It will difuse the flash and make it less harsh . YOu get much less glare .
anyhow . . . that's all i have to say about that .

Hey Matt- Really cool pieces! I like the "Curly" quality of that last guy, but like the skeleton best! Nice, distinctive style too...

Those little boards are looking good . . . the obvious next one would be the Sneeky Tiki , one of the Turf Clubs and Ami's best drinks ! !

Thanks for the suggestions.
Dr.Miguelito- I love the idea. As soon as I finish a big sacred heart for my friends little girl I'm gonna start weighing all these ideas.
Mike- What do you think the character should be? I'd love to do a portrait of Ami holding the drink. We may need to sneak some pictures of that.
AlohaStation- I like that idea allot. After you wrote it I did a couple of quick sketches and I think it's going to be a fun one.
Pdrake- You're a nut. I'm not sure how to tackle that one. I'll mull it over and we'll see.
Thanks again for all the ideas......keep 'em coming!
Cheers.
