Yay! So fun





I loved Labyrinth when I was a kid, And I absolutely loved David Bowie as the Goblin King. So when I saw this guy I was right in there. So awesome.


We had a great time at the Pyramid on Saturday. Almost everyone was out and there was a lot of wicked costumes. My only gripe was that there was no costume contest.
I'm wearing an office version of my costume at work right now. I couldn't pull off the dress here, and besides there's only 6 people dressed up. We're having a little contest here, but the 6 of us are going to split the money.

This is a test post from , a fancy photo sharing thing.

Andy, Men in Kilts

I spent some time last night taking photos of Andy’s band, Men In Kilts. Their exsisting promo photos are like 2 years old and are very outdated. I really like this one of Andy. I have more posted on Flickr. I was using a Canon EOS 20D, and 1 light. I really like that camera. I’ve had some trouble using it before in low light situations, but my single light last night really helped. I think the guys will be happy with what I did, as long as they get at least 1 good shot.

I have just completed the fabrication of my She-Ra headpiece. Its fucking awesome! Let me explain to you in great detail how this was accomplished.

• Step 1


Make a clay model of desired end result.

• Step 2


Pour thick plaster of Paris of Ploy-filla over model. You can try and contain the mix like I did, but if your mix is thick enough you might not need it.

• Step 3


Once plaster has hardened, you can remove the clay. This pretty much destroys your original model, so dont screw up the plaster part.

• Step 4


I used a flex foam called Flex-Foam-IT X from Smooth On. I got it from a shop that makes fake limbs. It start as a liquid, which make sit easy to pour and it expands to 6 times the original volume.

• Step 5




Voila, after it’s cured, remove from plaster cast.

• Finished


Now i have to paint it gold. I won’t use spray paint because it propabably wont set. So i’ll look for an arcylic.

Sweet. Andy and I will be He-Man and She-Ra for HAlloween this year. We are already majorly obsessed with perfecting these costumes. She-Ra’s outfit is fairly complicated, and I want it too be really good. The headpiece is the first challange because it’s the dopest part. I’ve started work on it and will include photos of my technique. Let’s just say that maybe the FineARts degreee will c0me in handy (finally). I purchased fabric for He-man’s furry loin cloth, and gold vinal for She-ra’s many golden accesories. I’m just not sure what to do about the boots. I might go down to Shoe Net (stripper shoe store downtown) to see how much sluty boots are.

Hello y’all! Welcome to the new iteration of my website. I admit, it’s extremely overdue. I haven’t updated my site since May 2004! That’s all gonna change now. I’ve connected my Flickr account to this neat-o bloggy thingy. Which incidently, I fucking hated doing at school. But that was Movable Type, so its completely different. I will learn how to customize this damn template goddamit. I will also be looking into some sort of spell checker, because (Bears Eat Candy And Usually Swallow Everything) I really need the help.

Here’s a photo I took this photo in an abandoned house in rural Manitoba. It was really beautiful during the day, but there was a definite Blair WItch vibe, and I wouldn’t want to be there at night.

Smell you later
