Aloha Tiki Tribe,

HAWAII-CON 2014!


Check it out. I found some old comic book, computer game designs I did on the computer from back in the early 90's.
Was never used. But made art prints - one of the first places to make "giclees" (what we are now calling our nice new modern art prints) ever to create / use high quality computer print outs that could be called "Fine Art".
I was there, when that was first one was being done.
At the test site, back then, we called them "Nash-editions", because they were from a customized "Iris-printer" owned by the folk-rock singer "Nash" from the band "Crosby Stills and Nash and Young" (Younger tribe members, just ask your mom.)
Thought you might dig it. Only he 3 - the original file was lost years ago.

It was painted with a mouse, in photo shop. Perhaps I shall sell the few prints I have left of it at the "HawaiiCon": at the Hapuna Beach Hotel and Resort, -the first ever Sc-Fi Convention , right here on the Big Island.
Could be fun.

I'm gonna attend with my buddy, Sam Campos, from Oahu, who's a conic book artist - he created the first ever Comic cook ever made here in Hawaii!! "Pineapple Man!" That's his new character "Dragon Fly!"

Ya' see… I Couldn't help but notice that the Black Widow's C 7 in "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" looked almost as nice as the "Tiki-Mobile" C 6. …. and gotta see if I can get my Art agent to tip the Hawaii-Con Hotel valet parking guys nice so they park the "Tiki-Mobile" right out front of the Hotel during the Hawaii-Con. Would look very "comic-book! YES?!"


Me, my adopted god-son, and my Art Agent: Abbas… they've NEVER been to a comic book convention!

SO… THEN… I'm gonna see if I can get my Art agent Abbas to dress up Comic-con style as "Nick Fury"! He'd look darn slick getting outa' the "Tiki-Mobile" with that Nick Fury black leather long coat and Eye Patch!

Me? hmmm….. While I'd LIKE to think I'd look like "The Batman", or "Riddick", I probably look more like this:
