Dear DeviantArt,

I know it's been a while. We don't see each other as much as we used to. Trust me, this makes me sad too. Life has been rather busy as of late and it seems to insist on taking me away from your warm, loving, embrace. However, even though I've been busy, it doesn't mean that I haven't been thinking of you. Don't you worry, my precious. I'll give you something new some time soon. Just be patient for a little while longer. Until next we meet...

Love,

KAOS

After a long hiatus, where I was honestly artistically drained and going through something of a rough time emotionally, I have finally made my grand return to DA. And with me, I bring something somewhat different to the table.

I've had a growing collection of Kaiju action figures for quite a few years now. I've long had an interest in doing something with them, other than looking at them taking up space on my wife's bookshelf. Unfortunately, I really wasn't certain just what I wanted to do. Then, it hit me, like a mazer cannon to the nuts.

I remember back to something I loved very much for years. Twisted Toyfare Theatre! Toyfare magazine for years, before they ceased publication, would make photo action figure comics with old 1970's Mego figures. I LOVED these comics. I kept up on all the collections they would put out, wanting to own as many of the TTT strips as I could. Thinking about these led me to want to try my hand a little bit of photo fumetti with my kaiju figures!

Now, I am certainly not the first person to do comedic tales with Kaiju figures. Before me came the TTT inspired Twisted Kaiju Theatre and on Youtube, a series I love very much, Monster Island Buddies. However, just because the idea isn't inherently mine, doesn't mean I can't give it a go.

So I did. And Life With Kaiju was born!

At first, I was basically sharing it with my friends, but after submitting a few strips to some DA Godzilla fan groups, it would seem I have some people who are rather enjoying my new comic strip! Well, I shan't disappoint! Life With Kaiju is now my current on-going project. As long as there's interest in it, and as long as I have ideas, I will keep up the good work!

I think the series can appeal to Kaiju fanatics and casual fans as well. Casual fans can just enjoy seeing the monsters put into silly situations, while die hard fans can enjoy a few in-jokes that I'll throw in just for them. (Did you like that Destroy All Monsters reference in Episode One?)

Either way, Life With Kaiju has just gotten started. Let's see where it goes from here, shall we?   

Hey everyone! I figured I'd do something nice for someone on DA for once.

My brother has a DA account. He actually has for years but he's only just started to utilize it. The guy could use some views and favorites and all that jazz so go take a look at his shit!

For those who have explored my DA page, you've probably seen my creative alter ego, Kaos, pop up in several deviations. If you're not sure who I'm talking about, here's some examples of him.

Anyway, if you're going to be attending this year's Tekkoshocon in Pittsburgh, PA from April 4th - 6th, chances are you will see this crazy asshole on one of those days. Be wary when approaching him, but if you ask him nicely, perhaps he'll take a picture with you or even accept your e-mail contacts and drawing requests, should you have any. No, Kaos won't have a booth. He'll just be walking around with his lovely assistant Kitty K.O. so keep your eyes open for these two. Trust me, he'll be impossible to miss.

If you do take your picture with him, I'd love to hear about it!

Anyhoo, more artwork when I get to it! Keep your eyes peeled.

Holy Hell! I never update this thing anymore do I?

Well Happy New Year, kids. KAOS is back and I'm hoping 2014 will be a much more artistic year for me. No more of this updating my DeviantArt but once a year. It's high time I bring my artistic stylings back to the internet.

So what do I have in store for you? Probably random things that pop into my brain, maybe an update to the Game Critters, amongst other things. We'll just have to wait and see I suppose.

I do have a new idea for comic strip series. In fact, the pilot issue is now up in my gallery. Go take a look.

Well, despite some personal hardships and trouble in the ol' personal life, I'm gonna give it my all to make 2014 a great one for KAOTIC artwork.

Just wait and see, I suppose...

Tootles! (Slightly, Curly, Nibs, Twins!)  

So... I really haven't updated since January, it seems. The last thing I posted was a drawing of Darkwing Duck to celebrate my love of DW and the, then running and now long since canceled, Darkwing Duck comic book series.

That's really sad.

Life's little obstacles just somehow find a way to put creativity to a dead stop.

Anyway, I haven't given up on my artwork forever. I have, however, been rather uninspired as of late. Everything I've tried to turn out, I've been unhappy with. I guess I've just been in a bit of an artistic slump for the past year.

Though, I have noticed that in my artistic absence, lots of people have been favoriting and commenting on my work. Even throwing a few of these llama thingies my way. I just wanted to thank everybody for enjoying my artwork. It does make me feel good that my stuff is enjoyed by SOMEBODY. I've never pretended to be the greatest artist, but if someone out there digs some of my stuff, that puts a smile on my face.

I can only promise that I'll make SOME attempt to get more work done at some point. I just gotta get back into the groove of things.

Just keep watching. Thanks!
