Just a little something I threw together real quick last night...
 
 

I've been meaning to post to this community for a while, but...for some reason I haven't until today. Anyway, I go by Sara. :)

I've been a RAVING fan of the show for a few years now. My favorite characters have always been the henchmen, and they're all I freakin' draw as of late. Here's a piece I've done:

Unfortunately, this is the only fanart I've done of these characters that ISN'T slash because I suck. I'd post them, but I'm not sure where this community stands on slash.

Fox25 runs ads for bostondatenetwork.com and tonight I noticed something in their commercial that I had never noticed before. I wish I had the clip, you only see it for two seconds but its clearly there.

This will likely be the last of the VB stuff until before Chicago Con. But you never know. This will also be available at SDCC, but again, if you're not attending this, Rampage 2 and Dr. Mrs. the Monarch are available BUT in limited numbers, like 10 for Non-Con attendees and 20 of each AT the Con.



email me if interested: tom@tomhodges.com

As promised... A new Brock piece...



These will be at SDCC as well as the Dr. Mrs. the Monarch I posted earlier. LIMITED numbers, but for anyone NOT going to SDCC and would like one of these (and the Molotov I'm working on...) email me as soon as possible at tom@tomhodges.com. I'm only going to make 10 NON-SDCC editions of these (there will only be 20 of each at SDCC). They'll be 11" x 17" and other details we'll work out via email.

I haven't posted in FOREVER on LJ...

But I figured with SDCC coming and having some new VB stuff for the show, I should start showing some of it off...

Dr. Mrs. The Monarch:

I might be repeating a previous point that others have noticed a long time earlier, but here it goes...

Dick Cavett: Dr venture, what would you say is your greatest adventure and, parenthetically, what is your greatest invention?

Jonas Venture: Dick, those are both excellent questions, but I am afraid I only have one answer: my son.

So, cloning. It didn't occur to me until now that it had multiple meanings. Cloning and Jonas Jr. (possibly another Metal Gear Solid reference, Snake is a clone of Big Boss) both hit me with that statement. He was being ultra cryptic, no? Tell me this was not intentional.

It sounds pretty solid in my mind, however I must take this one step further. Is Rusty a clone as well? Could he have also been as accident prone? What other implications could this have?

I love this show every time I realize that I completely missed a reference to something awesome or the dialogue is even more clever than I realized. Go Team Venture!
 
 
Special guest visit by the one and only J.G. Thirlwell (aka Foetus, Clint Ruin, etc.). Thirwell has had a long career in music going back to the late 1970s in London, where he worked with Nurse with Wound, Marc Almond and Nick Cave among others. He would later work with Lydia Lunch and Thurston Moore, produced many other artists and is generally associated with the New York music scene from the mid nineteen eighties to the present. More recently, he has been composing for chamber ensembles including the Kronos Quartet and has had his music performed live all over the world. His music for the Venture Brothers cartoon series and a collection of early experimental works have recently been released. Thirwell will be coming down to talk about all this and more. So tune in!

Though most of you do actually watch [info]jacksonpublick, I would like to point out that the first shots from s4 (as well as a rather fantastic picture of the Astrobase's dry erase board) are up in Jackson's newest entry.
 
 
"Cartoons are typically not known for their musical scores. In fact, for many that I watched growing up, the music was often more of an afterthought (outside of the main title theme, that is). Incidental music in The Transformers, for instance, was so generic and overused that the show even shared many of its compositions (if they could be called that) with its counterpart half-hour Hasbro commercial, G.I. Joe."

And honest, this is VB-related. OK, I am sure most of you have seen the Capital One commercials that are plastered everywhere, saying you can upload your own pic to use on your credit card? I wonder if you could upload this?

clicky for piccie )

It just went off & I am reminded at how absolutely gobsmacked I was when that first aired. :) So many great moments. I am sure it has been mentioned endlessly, but I don't recall noticing before that Doc Hammer "angel in bra w/ halo" pic in Rusty's bedroom!
 
 
For those of you not in the United States, you can now order the Venture Bros soundtrack directly from the Foetus.org Shop.

Go here: http://foetus.org/shop/

It will convert the $13.00 USD price into various currencies and allow you to choose shipping to wherever you live in the world.

All hail JG Thirlwell!!

So a few days ago a key chain I bought at a con last year popped open and I lost the picture inside(was Aqua Teen Zombies on one side, Carl "I don't need no instructions...to know how to rock" on the other). So I decided to take this opportunity to make my own pictures for it....I think I cut one pic a little smaller than the other and one picture bubbled a little..but anyway, this is how it turned out!

I just found out that Mike Sinterniklaas, the voice actor who plays Dean Venture, is going to be a guest at the South West Animation Conferance and Expo in Albuquerque, New Mexico in July! Any of you fine folks planning on attending? And if so are you dressing up as Venture characters? :D

(If you do go you might see me cavorting around as Col. Hunter Gathers. ;) )
