WindUp is back!


So this has been in talks forever, everyone loved WindUp but managing the site became too much work, but in the days of flickr and blogger we can do it with next to no effort. Dave has volunteered/was conned into taking the admin role in place of Rob and I and we're bringing it back! If you don't know what WindUp was, WindUp was an art project I set up with some friends to keep us all drawing while too many of us we're waiting tables or some comparable bullshit. We'd just pick a character and draw it. No deadlines. No prizes. You could do multiple entries. If you didn't like a character one month you could revisit an old one. A couple times we tried to tie them into something else. A lot of these kinds of web projects are around, Project Rooftop, with slight differences. This was ours though and we're bringing it out. It's fun and ends up with some great friendly competition. Almost ALL of my WindUp projects became portfolio mainstays and the reactions are always amazing when folks see something they love, done a little differently. If your interested email the admin.
Our first new project is Brock Samson, above is some details.
Let's get it on!

This looks like a lot of fun. I might actually do couple of these. I haven't drawn anything in like 3 billion years, but I do remember at least being half way decent at it. I doubt I'll create anything of Casey/John-caliber, but hell, it looks like fun just to screw around.
DEFINITLY! I still need to email "new" folks, we sent it out to the old guard already but the idea was whomever. I really wanted something in the spirit of fun and so I'd love to see you get involved and media isn't an issue. Do a 3D render, a poster design, I cut soooo much of my teeth on photoshop with this, it was awesome!
