Id like to start this fun blog by giving a super mondo thanks to all the cool cats at threadless. I've been around these parts for almost 3 years now and at no point ever imagined I'd be lucky enough to score a print. Let me say, it is the greatest feeling ever. I remember being rather down in the dumps not too long ago and receiving that glorious email made everything so much better... especially since it said "Congrats Hooters McBoobface!" (*shakes fist/gives ehug to those damn account hijackers)

I can honestly say, this was really the first design I ever made that I was really proud and excited for. I made this epic claim at the start of the year about how I intended to spend a lot more time on my designs than I had in the past, and this was my first attempt at exploring wrist-fatigue-inducing linework. The idea pooped into my head one day immediately after I got off work. So I sat down and drew for five hours straight, refusing to take a break. Thus far, this is the only time I've ever completed a design start to finish in one sitting.

I don't know where Id be without this wonderful website. I've met so many wonderful people and have made a lot of super friends. I'm constantly inspired by the work on here to push myself in directions Id previously been to lazy to explore.

Once again, thank you errrrveryone! I show I'm serious... even though I said pooped. Pooped is a funny word.

All about me


"This newly upgraded version of Torakamikaze comes equipped with superior facial hair growing powers, enabling him to always look dark and mysterious. By utilizing the Earth's gravity, each one of his facial hairs is pulled outward at a very precise angle using a formula that is far too complicated for your puny mind to understand. In addition, starting with Torakamikaze version 3.7, all current Torakamikazes come equipped with bitchin' sunglasses and trend-setting hoodies, guaranteed to make members of all sexes and species swoon when passing him on the street.

BONUS FEATURE!!! This Torakamikaze contains a brand new ability to connect to the Internet via an ethernet port located in the back of his neck. Now you can download new programs and features to your Torakamikaze as they become available. The default programs included in this Torakamikaze include karaoke singing, hair grooming, break dancing, and cow tipping!"

torturedtiki on May 06 '09 at 9:48pm
is there some sort of horn you can blow to attract his attention? or a ToraSignal?

KBShakedown on May 06 '09 at 9:49pm
You have to say something about bacon or your grandpa. Preferably both in one sentence.
