Tyler Childers: COUNTRY SQUIRE Music Video

As you may have noticed, it’s been kinda quiet around here for the last few months.

If you’ve been wondering what I’ve been up to, well, I’ve had my nose to the proverbial grindstone on my latest collaboration with Tyler… and here it is:

I had pretty much nothing in my portfolio or resumé that would show a reasonable executive that I was capable of handling such a thing, and so I am honored beyond words that Tyler and his crew took a chance on me, trusting me with the reins for this project. I wrote, designed, storyboarded, and directed this video, and thanks to the outstanding animators at Bomper Studio, I cannot fathom being more pleased with how it turned out.

If you like what you see and hear here, be sure to check out TYLER CHILDERS’ YOUTUBE CHANNEL for other videos, including the Grammy-nominated ALL YOUR’N, which I did some design work for!

New THREADLESS Shop is online!

So, I’ve added a new option for MERCH, signing up for one of Threadless’ Artist Shops!

My first round of stuff is a set of facemasks, featuring the artwork from Tyler Childers’ COUNTRY SQUIRE album. The proceeds from these masks go toward Threadless’ Covid-19 initiative to benefit MEDSHARE.

I’ve also added a couple of LI’L BAPHOMET masks, and a slew of other merch I’d never be able to produce on my own, from tank tops, to hoodies, to kids’ clothes, and even home accessories!

Check it out at http://TonyMoore.threadless.com !

Also, from here on out, there will be a THREADLESS link up in the SHOP menu at the top of this page.

Sketch of the Day! DONALD TRUMP

Hail to the King Baby.

It is my firm belief that the Trump administration is going to be absolute poison for our country. He and his appointed cronies strike me as hell-bent on undoing as much social, educational, and scientific progress as they can get their hands on, pledging to defund the arts, public schools, and healthcare at every turn. One major institution which has come under extreme fire both figuratively and literally is Planned Parenthood. Politicians on the Right have gone out of their way to vilify this service, but the truth is, no federal funds are used for abortions, and Planned Parenthood provides crucial health services such as screenings, preventive care, birth control, and much much more to women and families of all walks of life, urban and rural alike, and is often the primary source of care for women in poverty. 

And so, I'm offering up this image, and
I'LL BE DONATING 100% OF THE PROCEEDS TO PLANNED PARENTHOOD!
I'm selling the ORIGINAL ART, and also these $10 ART PRINTS.

model help? *edited!*

If anyone can provide me with an accurate Sketchup-compatible model of a MK-1 Stalwart, or "Stolly," i will draw them being killed in an upcoming issue of The Exterminators, and they will have my eternal gratitude.

it sure would save me a world of headache these next couple of months!

*EDIT* Thanks to everyone who helped out here. i now have a killer model to use for this, which will greatly reduce my chances of having an aneurysm while finishing out these last couple issues. Many thanks, everyone!
