Just finished a new site for Company Of Strangers, yay!

Check it out www.companyofstrangers.co.nz!

Wicked, I don’t personally like it but somebody obviously did cause I got picked to have my painting produced! Buy it from www.canteen.org.nz and help out cancer kids!

POPUP are super cool, overpriced - which is only to be expected in NZ, but super cool. They are holding their Pimp My Munny custom Munny event for the second time so check them out and support NZ toy love for me!

I came across these amazing sites the other night Friends With You and Meomi. They’re fully interactive so click all the wee characters around the pages and they’ll do super cool things. I love the Friends With You site, there’s a wee black cloud at the top, click him 3 times and see what happens, it totally puts me in hysterics every time, might just be me though, everyone keeps thinking I’m a dick for thinking it’s so funny.

I’m quite excited, my (lame-ass) christmas card design for the fantastic CanTeen NZ got picked for this years Christmas fundraiser!

CanTeen is an organisation for young New Zealand adults living with cancer and each year they hold an art workshop in the big AK where a bunch of members brainstorm and paint like mad for a few days to design the years christmas cards. The big fancy marketing guys up top pick around five of the top designs to produce as christmas cards and sell commercially around New Zealand… THEY PICKED MINE! AWESOME! Continue Reading…

Wicked May release from kidrobot - the absolute legends are releasing the second series of Fatcap(s), oh the joy! Here is what they had to say…

FatCap Series 2

FatCaps are back with 17 new rattling personalities plus three uber rare chases. Masterminded by Bubble Fetishist Tilt, Argentine art troop DOMA, and renowned graff writer Sket One—amongst other graffiti stars—these 3-inchers are blind assortment and only $6.95.

I’ve been dying to know whether some more of these little beauties are gonna be released as I only managed to get my hands on just four of the entire first series, I was a little late to the party but hey. I’m stoked they have one of my absolute favourites, Tilt (who I’m sure is a#1 fav. for most others too), back for more kidrobot toy action, amongst what I’m predicting to be another awesome line-up of wicked international artists. Continue Reading…

Pocket Clouds is so amazingly cool - colourful, pretty, exciting, original, super creative AND it has super neat old skool video game sound effects. I get the idea from the site that the creator is one cool dude called Samuele Granzotto a.k.a. Pocket Clouds or Pocket or something like that and he likes cool stuff. Go show him some love cause he deserves it. Continue Reading…

I just stumbled across this site Smashing Magazine and it’s so cool and super duper handy. It’s full of heaps of cool developer hints, resources etc. and a tonne of awesome website/pc customisation stuff. Check it out cause I’m totally in love with it, I’ve spent hours over the last 3 nights going “oh my goodness, coolest post ever” to every single post that I come across. Wicked Fun.

Thanks kidrobot and popup and ESPECIALLY StrangeKiss.com, I’m well on my way with my lovely collection of French Dunny’s! I’m just so excited! My fantastic parents picked me up a bunch of blind-boxes from the fabulous popup in Cuba St, Wellington on a recent trip and then I discovered my new heroes… StrangeKiss.com. I ordered a bunch of open-box Dunny from them and picking the cheapest shipping option didn’t expect to see them for months but exactly one week later they arrived, wowee, they even made it super special by hand signing a wee thank you and smiley face, kinda makes that big ol’ California place off the TV seem real haha.

Amy Winehouse’s musics always sounded pretty cool to me. I’ve never seen too much of her on tv or live or whatever, just the hundreds of photos of her crack packed nostrils and trackmarks, I just assumed it was unfortunate timing (or something?) But I’ve just noticed one of her gigs on tv and seriously?! It’s the first I’ve heard her speak and it’s like she’s trying to sound like a crackhead - “Eeeeeh, ma voice es goin all shetty now, eeeeeh all shetty… uuuuuhhhh, eeeeh, gargle, yeeeeeah, faaaark”. Next in line comes the dancing, then the dress sense. What? I don’t have words to explain my confusion! Continue Reading…

I’m really not too keen on YouTube videos in blogs etc. (tacky) so as much as I absolutely love this video I’m only going to link it. The band is The Bumblebeez and the song is Dr. Love, it’s just hilarious! What’s also pretty cool is that from what I remember they are from right across the ditch in Aussie. I love them, check it out > “The Bumblebeez - Dr. Love”

This is monnies and she’s fantastic and she made a fantastic site full of all of her fantastic textile stuff ! There’s cool fabric printing stuff and wallpaper stuff and digital stuff and fluffy stuff and paper stuff (I think), she’s just so clever that she can do all that and all that fantastic-al-ly!

Go and send her some love and tell her she’s awesome!

I found these on the kidrobot site. Now I see a whole lot of really cool stuff but these blow all that away x100, that’s how cool they are. Continue Reading…

The thought of it makes me really, really, really happy.

This super wee number from Johnny Cupcakes totally rocks my socks. Usually I stare at the bleach blonde, oompa-loompa skin toned wee tarts down the street clad in their stupid, cheap and ultra skankus slogan T’s and cringe, but this one’s pure greatness, along with the rest of Johnny Cupcakes range of T’s (not to mention the hot boys with nice tattoo’s modeling them). Check these out >
