Hey Matt, Also a tip for ya, Check out Photobucket.com They give you the code for posting pics on TC and they make it way easier to post pics and they don't mess with your picture as much as shutterfly sometime does. Aloha, Chongolio |

Matt - It was great meeting you at TO 6 and seeing your work in person. You have a killer style and those colors are SO vibrant! that green one would look really cool under a blacklight You still have any of the lava flow t-shirts with the tiki on 'em? Pm me if ya do! Chongo, thanks for the photobucket link, I don't like how shutterfly puts borders around the pictures I post here AND crops some of them! I think I may give them a try |

No they're not airbrushed. Just acrylic on 3/8 masonite. I scroll-saw 'em and they are sealed in a simple rustoleum clear coat. I'm glad you like them. I checked out Tinglers stuff and they are really nice looking. Thanks again for the feedback. |

Checked into buying one of those "hillhikers" a while ago. The guy asked how long my run was. I said "30 feet". He said "Oh you just need a little bitty one,that's tiny!" I said "Cool, what's it cost for a itty-bitty one?" He said "something that small ....$30,000". Needless to say I love those stairs now. |

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. [ Edited by: Matt Reese 2006-12-07 14:20 ] |

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 . |
