.completely shaved head + sunburn = awful peeling

what does the pic have to do with shaved sunburn heads? that headline is my “life” post. the pic is the random part

.ate dirt today

i havent ridden a bike in about 15 years or so and i just started biking again this month (almost every day actually). finally had my first faceplant. this is what happens when you dont adjust the front suspension

just scraped my knees. i rode for another hour and just ignored it. the odd thing about it is that i know that i am somewhat of a hemophobe (blood phobic) which means that i have a “genetically inherited physiological response to the sight of blood or injury” and that response at least in my family is fainting at the sight of your own blood/injury. usually i’m fine as long as i dont look at my injury within minutes of any accident. i didnt get that nauseating/fainting feeling…at least this time.

hmm..either that or i have other medical problems…

edit: spoke too soon. my blood pressure dropped when i was trying to clean the wounds

found an old self-promo that i used to send out. simple illustration on a business card sized cardstock, with a googly eye glued on (a loose googly eye is included in the promo)

.doodling on a giant cardboard with a small sharpie

.box of gundams pt.1

i dug a box out of gundam model kits that have not been finished (virtually untouched in the last 3-4 years)

really odd that i managed to finish painting only half of the kit. there’s lint on the shiny black painted parts from the years it was boxed up. i do have the upper body (i didnt take a picture of it) and it looks like i was going to customize it but it’s been so long that i’ve forgotten what it was that i was trying to do.

this looks like it’s close to being finished. well the feet is already primered. it just needs to be sanded/cleaned up and primered. i still need to modify the neck (the head needs to be higher off the body so i could pose it with the head down in a more dramatic fashion)

i’ll post a few more of these unfinished stuff some other time.
