Invitational- Guy Burwell!
Back when I started seeing the artwork for this season’s Nakatomi Invitational come in, I almost plotzed when I saw this stunner from Guy Burwell. Guy, for those of you not in the know, is arguably one of the top artists working in the Gigposter field today. And whenever one of his prints has a robot on it…magic. This print measures 18×24 and is printed with metallic ink in a hand-numbered edition! Nakatomi will only…

Print Preview- “The Sea Also Rises: Incident 6- the King of Crabs Claims His Throne”
Can’t clown, eat will sleep me. Clicky image and then hit ‘all sizes’ on the Flickr page for a HUGE pic! “The Sea Also Rises: Incident 6- the King of Crabs Claims His Throne” by Tim Doyle. Now, why oh why is Tim Doyle just freaking cranking these things out, forgoing food and sleep? Well, in about 6 weeks, he’s expecting his first baby, and PROBABLY won’t be getting much drawing done for a while. …
21 Movable Parts
So, a lot of my day-to-day is spent looking through old comic books. Yeah, I live the American Dream. Anyways, I came across this ad for a classic toy. Enjoy! Wait, what do you mean that was “anything but heterosexual?” G.I. Joe is army tough! He’s an American icon that represents the spirit of manliness. Don’t believe me? Fine. I’ve taken snippets of text from that ad and placed them in screenshots of the greatest…
Never ever Google Image search yourself.
Shudder. Apparently, this is from some lady’s Flickr feed- this lady makes custom clothes for her dolls. Check her out HERE. I don’t know about you guys, but dolls really creep me the hell out. I blame it on that old Burgess Meredith film, MAGIC. Check it- Uuuuhhhhhhhhhhggggh. That’s still got power over me, like 25 years later. I did think it was neat that the above lady was making those shirts, and asked her…
Mailling list exclusive print tomorrow (Friday)
Hello Nakatomi Peoples! If you’re already on the mailing list, no problem. If you’re NOT…problem. Tomorrow we’ll have a mailing list exclusive print drop- this print will never be for sale on Nakatomi’s site- if you miss out, we’ll MAYBE have copies at Flatstock Austin 2010. But no promises, eh? And, to make it crazier- we’ll only have 20 of these for sale. Tomorrow noonish (CST) we’ll send out an email w/ an image and…
Billions and Billions of Beats
I’m a science nerd. Since leaving formalized education, my thirst for knowledge and understanding has increased geometrically. Kinda makes you wonder what the hell was wrong with Public Education that made me COMPLETELY uninterested in science in school. (Possible answer- the problem might have been me.) But- no-one makes the beauty and wonder of science come alive more than Carl Sagan. And nothing makes Carl Sagan come alive more than an ethereal piano melody and…
The Colonel’s Secret Japanese Recipe
Back in January, WE REPORTED on how Robocop is stealing fried chicken and refrigerators in Korea. I apparently underestimated Asia’s true love and respect for what we here in America commonly refer to the GROSSEST CHEAPEST FOOD IN THE WORLD. What you’re about to see is an unexplainable Kit-Kat commercial featuring the cutest little girl in the world marching with the British Royal Guard, who apparently love’s them some Chocolate-Covered-Cookies, followed by the most holy,…
Mer-Man attacks, and a New Times Table by Jacob B!
Here’s Jacob Borshard, signing off on his newest Nakatomi Release, “The Sinking of the Oruko Ship” You can see some freaky-big images of this on our FLICKR feed HERE. From Jacob’s series of 80’s Japanese Ukiyo-e drawings, this 8 color print measures 18×24, and is signed and numbered in an edition of 40. The Japanese text is a translation of that traditional poem, written by a lone and forgotten Orko author, thousands of years…
