This is it!

THE SCOTT C SHOP is now LIVE! A place where you can find all Scott C sorts of stuff.  A place where you can have the ULTIMATE SCOTT C SHOPPING SPREE whenever you want!  I am so excited for you guys!  You are going to have a blast!

Were you really wanting that Giving Out Zaps print from last year?  We got it!  Were you wondering where the heck you could get that big Great Showdowns print or the Cosmos print??  They are here.  Or perhaps the Slayer print slipped through your fingers.  I’ll bet you didn’t even know about this Ghost Tote to put all your stuff in. Oh, man, so many things for you!

I will be putting new prints and merchandise into this store as much as i can.  Just when things come up, i will put them in here.  I will also put special AP prints from past sold out runs up on here at random times.  I will announce when i will do that though, probably on twitter.  Don’t worry.

So this is it!  i hope you enjoy it!

Here are some of things you will find in the shop:

IN RELATED NEWS: i’ve also redesigned PyramidCar.com, my main site.  Perhaps you have seen it already.  Check it out!  You might enjoy perusing that thing as well.

Ok!  Enjoy! Lot’s more stuff to come!  Stay the heck tuned!

I had the great pleasure of chatting with Sam Weber for his podcast called Your Dreams My Nightmares.  It was a real nice time.  We both have studios in the Pencil Factory in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.  It was nice to finally chat with him.

I hope you find it enjoyable!

You guys!  Today is the most exciting of days.  For today is PUBLICATION DAY for my new picture book called HUG MACHINE!!

That is right!  HUG MACHINE is out today in stores all over the place.  Whatever store carries books near you will probably have it today! This is incredibly exciting for me because this will be the first picture book in which I have both written the words AND drawn the pictures.  An exciting milestone, my friends.

HUG MACHINE is the story of a child who is super down with hugging.  He is the self-proclaimed Hug Machine and he is very excited to tell everyone about it. He is very good at hugging and he is not shy to show the world.  He is ready for you to watch how amazing he is at hugging…

He hugs people…

But he also hugs things!  Nothing escapes.  Nothing.

He even solves problems with his hugs…

Sometimes he comes up against some real tough hugs.  Hugs that would make others give right the heck up and turn away…

But the Hug Machine does not back down ever…

I won’t tell you what happens here, but i’ll bet you can take a wild guess…

And of course, there is a spread with a lot going on and a dotted line trail for you to follow the Hug Machine’s exploits.  Because i love spreads like that.  I am just so into them…

And if you, the reader, need a hug?  The Hug Machine will hug you.  Do not worry!

So go check it out, you guys!  I am so excited.  I hope you like it and spread the word for this little guy because he reeeeeally wants the world to know that he is amazing at hugging. It is important for everyone to know how good he is at it!

And to celebrate this momentous occasion, we have made this little hug workout video to help everyone prepare to hug the heck out of everything this week!  When you bring the book home, you will be glad that you have this little workout to keep your hugging energy in tip top shape…

BOOK TOUR!  I will be posting more about my touring schedule soon. One thing I can tell you about is HUG A BOOK WEEK taking place Sept 6 – 13th.  I can also tell you about the launch party/exhibition for the book at Gallery Nucleus on September 6th!

HUG A BOOK WEEK - Sept 6 – 13th

HUG MACHINE Exhibition and Launch Party - Sept 6 – (Alhambra, CA)

We will be having a party and exhibition at Gallery Nucleus on Sept 6th.  It will be just a wonderful time.  I will be reading the book, doing some demos and signing books.  The night of the opening should be a really fun time.

Well, you guys, the exhibition went wonderfully. I had such a great time with everyone! I enjoyed watching the Great, Great Showdowns Hunt unfold all week. And I very much enjoyed hanging with all of you in the line that began forming outside the show. You are all super fantastic people! I appreciate all of you so much!

You can see the entire show online on the Gallery 1988 site!

We will be announcing the winner of the trivia contest very soon.

…………

Here are some visual memories for us to all enjoy! Courtesy of many different people. Thank you, everyone!

Katie, of Gallery 1988, is very, very good at hanging shows….

The first fellas in line, Aaron and Josh!  Started Wednesday I believe?  Good dudes.

The line as the opening grew near. I very much enjoyed visiting the line.

I handed out the special edition “Waiting Patiently” prints to the first 50 people in line…

Here is what the “Waiting Patiently” print looked like…

Here are some shots of the opening, courtesy of Nara….

Fariha was there with her amazing hand-painted nails!  Look at this craziness!!

There were 20 unnamed showdowns in the trivia. The sheets that were all correctly answered would be put into a hat and the winner drawn out at random.  The winner would then choose a showdown for me to paint for them.

This is Germain from Slashfilm, with his showdown that he personally suggested.  Slashfilm has always been incredibly supportive of the Great Showdowns.  I love those guys!

Here i am drawing Dan, the discoverer of the final painting in the Great, Great Showdowns Hunt.  He is always around.

Here is Elli with here Maleficent!

Here is the gallery just before it opened…

And here it is after…

Ok!  That’s it!  Thank you so much for copming, everyone! I hope you enjoyed these memories and I hope you enjoy the show!  Go see it!  It runs through August 2nd!

See you next time!  and at San Diego Comic Con next week, actually.
