Guess The Two Celebrities! (Volume 1)
Although it's been GOD-KNOWS-HOW-LONG (+3 years to be precise) since I've released any official deviations, I've once again decided to try something different... The 2 pop culture icons I've managed to get acquainted with, if just for a brief moment, should jog everyone's memory by now! Here are the the hints:
- Max Dennison (Hocus Pocus; which was shot in Salem & Marblehead, the former of where I visited last fall - "Welcome to High School Hell. I'm your host, Boris Karloff, Jr.!") / Marshall Teller (Eerie, Indiana - "Better Weird Than Dead!") / Stan (Matinee) / Timmy (Adventures in Dinosaur City, hence the SNES game DinoCity, based on the film, I used as a prop to honor his legacy)
- Rufio (Hook - "All grownups are pirates!") / Jimmy Ho (The Perfect Weapon, hence the prop I used to honor his legacy - "Hey, Terminator, I don't know where you came from, but you better go back. Those guys are Golden Fists...you're a dead man." | "Everyone in Koreatown knows Yung killed Kim, DICK....TRACY!") / American Dragon Jake Long / Prince Zuko (Avatar: The Last Airbender - "Next time you get in my way, I promise I won't hold back!") / The Legend of Korra (Iroh II)
Both were taken at Silver Moon Collectibles & Comics at Witch City Mall in Salem, October 2022 & AnimeBoston 2023 last month at Hynes - from which I live not too far, respectively.

Plans put into effect, consider this my FINAL REMINDER this year that I'm still open for commissions, and that I also accept both PayPal & dA Points! If possible, refer to this recent entry for more information (since I'm pressed for time like never before...)!
Spring Update IYep....as you've probably noticed by now - I HAVE FINALLY RETURNED WITH AN IRON-GRIP, SODOM-AND-GOMORRAH VENGEANCE!! More new pieces, more new kick-ass fanart & crossovers/cracks/gags than you can possibly perform a 'Barrel Roll' toward!
Having said all that, I'd also like to take this opportunity and commemorate this entry to the departed souls of the following individuals - amongst many - who've shaped our lives beyond belief throughout each generation:
HAROLD RAMIS - first and foremost - Egon, Russell Ziskey, and a plethora of other unforgettable characters (don't forget about Ben Stone's dad in Knocked Up)! He even helped to direct/produce the first Caddyshack and Vacation films in '80 and '83, respectively!
PHILLIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN (Boogie Nights, Magnolia, Capote, A Late Quartet and others) - kick-ass actor....I wish I could've had the opportunity to delve more into his roles [nothing too personal]!
SHIRLEY TEMPLE BLACK (Child actress of the 1920s)
BOB HOSK
