Score Free Woolly | Threadless

Score Free Woolly | Threadless until Nov 19th, 2013: Sorry, It's Too Late to... Free Woolly. The weekend is here and I just wanted to do something a little twisted. Not sure why I picked this theme because ever since I was a child, I actually loved the Woolly Mammoth. I still get excited when I hear all that talk about cloning, especially when a perfectly preserved specimen has been discovered somewhere deep in the frozen tundra. Maybe it's not too late for this furry friend?!

Hulk Challenge at Threadless

Hey all, just trying to figure out the best way to get my Threadless submissions out there. Looking into Tumblr, Flicker, Pinterest, etc. to see what drives the most traffic to Mudge Studios Threadless page. There are a very limited number of days available for open scoring- so I need to determine how to use my time wisely when promoting these subs. I believe that Voting is open until May 02, 2013. If you have a chance, Please vote and score some of my Hulk Tee shirt designs over at Threadless.
In this experiment, I've included all six Hulk subs, each with a caption and a link to the Threadless site where one can score the designs. Thanks for browsing!

Green Hulk and Red Hulk Arm Wrestling

Our Gray Version of the Hulk

Hulk as The Thinker

Hulk Not Happy Anymore

This is the revised version of the Incredibly Happy Hulk t-shirt design that I first submitted for the challenge. I made some major changes to the Hulk's facial expression. Let's just say... Hulk Not Happy Anymore.

Hulk Burden Earth

For this Hulk challenge I've depicted Hulk as Atlas struggling under the tremendous weight of the Earth as the human race as a whole finally succumbs to temptation, of total selfishness, greed, corruption and violence towards one another. The fall of man is symbolized by a fiery rage that has completely over shadows even the notorious rage of Hulk. Hope you like it.

I remember growing up and waiting every weekend to catch the Wide World of Sports Broadcast on ABC.  For me that was decades ago- maybe sometime during the mid 70's. These days it's all about the Entertainment and Sports Programming Network. That's right, since 1979, ESPN has been covering so many of our favorite sports. Through the Years, ESPN has continued to expand its sports network by adding shows such as: SportsCenter, ESPN College Football, ESPN GameDay, ESPN College Basketball , ESPNU, SportsNation, Mike and Mike, Around the Horn, Pardon the Interruption, Baseball Tonight, ESPN Deportes, ESPN Fantasy Football.

NYUK! NYUK! Three Stooges Assignment 1993

Three Stooges Illo. by Mudge Studios 1993

Featured above is a photo of the magazine cover illustration by Mudge Studios for Card Collector's Price Guide back in 1993. Back then, I worked with Liquitex Acrylics on Strathmore Illustration board using watercolor techniques in this piece. From left to right stand Larry, Curley and Moe- known collectively as The Three Stooges. After this periodical hit the newstands, I received a phone call from a Three Stooges collector who wished to purchase the original artwork from me. He was looking to acquire the original illustration, the Three Stooges Trading Card Featured on the cover as well as a copy of the Price Guide. He offered a fair price so I sold the Collector the art. He eventually mailed me a picture of the completed collection that he had professionally matted and framed. 

The Three Stooges were Slapstick at its best. Moe, Larry and Curly were an American Vaudeville Act that churned out some of the funniest short films ever made. When I was a kid going back to the 70's and 80's, I was fortunate that the Three Stooges reruns were frequently broadcasted on a UHF station that our family could actually get with the antenna that my dad had bolted to the side of the house. All of The Three Stooges films that I have seen were all shot in Black and White which certainly stamps these gems as classic. Funny, Just the other day, I stumbled upon the Stooges and there I remained for over an hour. The Three Stooges certainly stand the test of time as I chuckled immediately on site. Turns out our twenty something year old daughter even watches the Stooges periodically. Checkout some of The Three Stooges Swag in the widget to your right that Mudge has recommended from Amazon.com.

Gangnam Style... Heeey Sexy Lady!

Oppan Pugnam Style by Mudge Studios

Really enjoyed our Thanksgiving celebration in scenic Vermont this year. It was a pleasure as several of our relatives from Canada were able to join us for the festivities. I had an opportunity to chat with the kids and some of the teens in particular about current events and some pop culture. I asked them if they'd heard of Gangnam Style. The response was electric as everybody had heard of PSY and some of them knew how to do that horse riding dance. Of course, one of them had to get the smart phone out and start playing the YouTube videos of PSY's Gangnam Style. I have to admit, the tune was catchy. I can see why PSY's video went viral. Are we talking about a K-pop invasion?

Anyway, I had a few hours between projects- so I thought that I'd have a little fun with a Gangnam Style parody. The illustration below is titled Op, Op, Op, op…. Oppan Pugnam Style. Featured are three pugs sporting cool shades with attitude. The Pug is styling' in his black suit as he does the horse dance. The background gives a glimpse of what Gangnam, South Korea looks like. Only Wish that I could animate.

I've Selected some Gangnam Style Swag sold over at Amazon.com. You can see all of the PSY and Gangnam Style Merch in the widgets on your right. Some of my favorites include: The officially licensed PSY t-shirts by YG Entertainment. The Caricature of PSY by the Korean Artist is spot on. Also have some Gangnam Style MP3 files too. Just had to include some of the parodies!

The Honey Badger Frenzy: I Don't Care!

Honey Badger Don't Care... Because He's Dead:)

Seems like Honey Badger is all the rage these days.

Well, We simply Don't Care. In fact, we are quite sick of the Honey Badger frenzy. 

We may be tired of hearing about this savage beast, but that doesn't mean that we can stand by and not submit a couple of designs featuring our perspective. Check out our Funny I Love Honey Badger especially in BBQ Sauce and our version of Honey Badger Don't Care because he's being Barbecued designs on T-Shirts and more.

A Frog's Life...

A Frogs Life Gift Shop @ Zazzle

Frogs are amphibians. The majority of frogs have long, powerful hind legs, a short body, webbed fingers and toes, bulging eyes and no tail. Frogs are of course known to be elite leapers. Yes, even the childhood game known as Leap Frog comes from mimicking the jumping prowess of the awesome froggy.  Frogs can be found across the globe in tropical rain forests to surprisingly- subarctic areas. Currently, More than 5,000 species of Frog are known to inhabit our planet, but unfortunately- many species are becoming endangered. As I write this blog entry, I have to double check my facts. Did I previously mention frogs living in subartic areas? Subartic?  I wonder if other planets could indeed play host to a variety of extraterrestrial frogs?

Variety of Frog Shirts and Gifts for Frog Lovers
You've probably guessed that Frogs are pretty much one of my favorite animals. I actually find most animals to be fascinating, but these amphibians do Rock! A Frog lives to eat anything that bugs them. A Frog's Life has a large variety of cool frog shirts, buttons, mugs, bumper stickers and more for frog lovers of all ages.
