That Flash pic adds a background to a picture I drew and colored two months ago, but Gilius himslef was originally done last year (part of &#8220;The Revenge of 1989&#8221; for the ScrollBoss site) and the new-style Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle sprites started with Raph last December. If you recognize the background for those TMNT sprites on their gallery page, consider it a preview for something I&#8217;m working on quietly. The Flash pic has been added to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/prints_index.php\">Prints page<\/a> and the Gilius pic will join it once I get a sample print to see how it looks.<\/p>\n<p><DIV style=\"float:right; padding:5px;\"><A HREF=\"photos\/merch\/skullshirt_quickpic1_600p.jpg\"><IMG SRC=\"photos\/merch\/skullshirt_quickpic1_350p.jpg\" width=123 height=175><\/A><\/DIV>My own copy of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teepublic.com\/t-shirt\/167456-world-1-skull\">ScrollBoss Minus World Skull shirt<\/a> from TeePublic.com came in the mail yesterday, right along with a new batch of prints. I didn&#8217;t realize this until I hunted down the old scan to clean up and vectorize for the shirt (and other projects), but that graphic is now over 10 years old. It goes back to when I redesigned the ScrollBoss site before moving to Dreamhost. I wanted something creepy-but-still-goofy for the Twilight Zone-style vibe <a href=\"http:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/mw_index.php\">that section of ScrollBoss<\/a> went for at times. That section will have yet another change in the future, but that&#8217;s a whole different story.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be at the Warren, Ohio location of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/All-American-Cards-and-Comics\/162251137284\">All-American Cards &#038; Comics<\/a> on Free Comic Book Day (May 2nd), but don&#8217;t let that cause you to avoid the place. I&#8217;ll be selling prints and will have some unposted pics and sprites to show for anyone who stops by. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pictures of the Flash and Gilius Thunderhead finally get backgrounds while Leo and Don&#8217;s new sprites were added to the TMNT sprite gallery page!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,4],"tags":[13,109,25,126,9,18],"class_list":["post-340","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-illmosisupdates","category-site-news","tag-dc-comics","tag-pixel-art","tag-sega","tag-superheroes","tag-tmnt","tag-video-games"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=340"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=340"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=340"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.illmosis.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=340"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
