We’re back (again)! From here on out we should be back to our regularly scheduled program of posts and related silliness. Over the last several weeks we’ve been prepping our two new sketchbooks and the army is almost complete. Like our first volume, we’ve limited the print run to 1000 for each book. When they’re gone, they’re gone! We really appreciate the enthusiasm and kind words in the previous post. Comic-Con should be lots of fun and we look forward to chatting with fellow CreatureBoxers.
As for the image, I think some gardeners are simply misunderstood.
2009 Sketchbooks!

Well, we’re back! Wish we could say we were all rested up, but it’s quite the opposite! But we made it through and are excited to announce the release of our newest sketchbooks: Thoughts, Scribbles + Madness: Volume 2 and Palindrone Robot Supply.
Thoughts, Scribbles + Madness: Volume 2
Thoughts, Scribbles + Madness: Volume 2 follows monstrously in the footsteps of our first sold-out book Thoughts, Scribbles + Madness: Volume 1, complete with a bonus DVD! This book is 28 full color pages of re-envisioned designs from the site and many designs that are exclusive to the book and will not be featured anywhere else! Combined with a DVD of over 40 minutes of time lapse start-to-finish designs, this book has just about everything we could think of in it.
Palindrone Robot Supply
Palindrone Robot Supply is our newest outlet for robot designs. This 28 page book is packed full of 125 exclusively designed robots. If you like robots, this’ll be a fun one for you.
Both books will be available exclusively at Stuart Ng Books at San Diego Comic-Con Booth 5012 this year for there initial release. We will be signing the books at Stuart’s booth on Saturday, July 25th from 4-6pm. We will not have our own booth this year, which is a real bummer because we loved meeting everyone that came by last year. But please stop by Stuart Ng and say “Hi”, we’d love to see you all again and meet everyone else!
And for those of you who can’t make it to the show, we’ll have the books for sale shortly after on the site so anyone who is interested can get one too.
We had such great feedback from all of you on our first book, and are looking forward to hearing what you think of this year’s efforts. See you at Comic-Con!
*Update*
Once we begin selling the books through the site, we will have international shipping options for all the fellow CreatureBoxers around the world. So if you can’t make it to the show, the books will find a way to slither to your door!

Into the Pixel
I was extremely fortunate to be included in the 2009 Into the Pixel exhibition featured at E3 in Los Angeles. The gallery will feature 16 pieces highlighting some of the conceptual development throughout the games industry from the past year. If you’re making your way over to the conference, you can check out the show in the Concourse foyer adjacent to the West Hall.
In other news, our San Diego plans (and projects) are coming together. We’ll be sure to keep everyone posted. Rock onward!
