All My Heroes Contest: Name our B-Movie Title, Win a personalized Facebook Avatar from Jeaux Janovsky!

Hey gang! The results are in!

A couple weeks ago, Ava had her John Waters themed Halloween House warming party. I dressed up as a Drape from Cry-Baby, and Ava did her best Divine style. We took a picture together, and I commented on how it looked like a bad B-Movie from the early 90s! I meant it in the best of ways. :)

We even have an imaginary theme song to the opening credits in our fake movie!

A Love From Outer Space by A.R. Kane!

That prompted me to run a contest on Facebook, open to all my pals on both Facebook & Tumblr, wherein I asked them to name our bad 90s B-Movie and the winner will get a one of a kind, unique, personalized Facebook Avatar doodle from me!

Ava & I sat down and discussed the titles, which were rated by how hard we laughed and snickered at them. I even created Mock Movie posters for our pretend movies! I think they came out pretty cheezy and awesome! Perhaps I found my calling in bad graphic design! (Anyone wanna hire me? Anybody? Bueller? Bueller?)

Here are the winners for Facebook proper:

1st place "Legend of the Legendary Legion of Legions"- Kyle Maki
Ava heard that title without knowing it was our friend Kyle, and she let out the mightiest guffaw over that one! Great job Kyle!


2nd Place Runner Up "Lightning in Leather" Paul Linsley

Here are the winners on Tumblr:

1st place "The Biker Mafia from Outer Space!!!"- Naomi Mac Millan


2nd place Runner Up "Green Velvet Meets The Greaser In Frogtown"- Trevor Pitt


3rd place Runner Up “The Bearded Soul Train TO HELL”- Michael Rodgers

Here are the details:

• 1st place winners get their FB Avatar doodles fully colored.
• Runners up will get theirs in Black & White.
• I will need you to email me a picture so I can draw you. It would also be helpful to me if you could tell me a couple of your likes or dislikes, such as "I enjoy hamburgers and sleeping", or let me know if you want me to draw you doing something/anything! Nothing is too wacky, bizarre, or shocking. Be Creative!
• You can reach me HERE, or via Facebook.

Here are some entries that, while great, didn't quite make the final cut.
"Rebel with a beard"- Peter Espinal

"Hair: A Tragedy"- Colton

"The Vestibule"- Mell

"The Day the Internet stood still"- Dreams-are-Wild

Thanks to all who participated! :)

Now to get all Avatarded! I'll be keeping my 4 eyes on my email inbox winners!

Cool Peeps Sketchbook Drawings Series

So, I have a nifty new sketchbook that I am in major love with. It was made by Tyler Bender Book Co., and he re-purposes, re-sizes, old library books.

The pages are heavy and dense and can handle most strong markers without heavy bleeding to the next page and the binding is pretty durable. I love the size of the book and it's fairly intimate for both artist and reader/lookie-loo. In this case, the book that was re-purposed was Stars Fell On Alabama by Carl Carmer.

Needless to say, I carry this book with me everywhere I go and I doodle in it ALL the time!
Lately, it's become a bit more valuable to me since I began letting friends and heroes alike, doodle in it too!

Here's a few of my favorite doodles folks have been kind enough to give me thus far:
Sherm Cohen doodles up a great bad ass Perry, Agent P for me during my field trip to Disney last week!
Another great Sherm Cohen Quality Brand Doodle!!!
Here's a Robert Williams, the granddaddy of "Low-Brow", sketch note doodle I did during a lecture of his at CSUN, that he was kind enough to autograph for me!
Here's a doodle I did of Young Matt Groening/Old Matt Groening that Matt Groening was kind enough to autograph too! I met him at Gary Panter's Lecture/opening a couple weeks ago at PCC!
A doodle by my pal Kat Rivera! She is the doodle queen and fun to draw with!!!
Ran into Johnny Ryan at the Gary Panter Lecture/Opening too! Yea, it was a really cool nite! He doodled me this original Blecky Yuckerella all up in my sketchbook's grillage!!! (and apparently meditating too!)
What can I say about Gary Panter? The man is a fricking geniux. And he drew me an original Jimbo sketch in my sketchbook!!! Cool, eh? This was during his Lecture/Opening at PCC!
Here's a great doodle Cristina Paulos, the other half of Doubled8, did for me of one of my characters: the fabulous Fez-tastic Porter Duck!
A great blade-runner-esque doodle in my sketchbook from the equally great and harrison ford-like Chad Essley!
Here's a great Porter Duck doodle from Chad Essley in mah sketchbook!!!
