Under the mask...

A metallic repaint, weathering, and an exposed faceplate transformed Overkill into the Cobra android I always imagined.

@FunMovieTVFan Either Alan Matthews from Boy Meets World, Jason Seaver from Growing Pains, or Steven Keaton from Family Ties.

Expanding to dramas, Andy Brown from Everwood, Jim Walsh from Beverly Hills 90210, or John Slattery's Peter Benedict character from Jack & Bobby.

Eight years ago today, a Pokémon Go raid briefly became a rabbit rescue.
A lost bunny took shelter beside my shoe in a parking lot, then followed me around an apartment complex until we found the right hutch.
Best side quest I never signed up for. 🐇#rbbtRescue #WildlifeEncounter

Mainframe wasn't trying to destroy the BAT.
He was trying to understand it.

Working on action choreography today. The goal wasn't realism so much as capturing that split second where everything is moving at once.

Pasture study.
Sometimes the most interesting subjects are the ones that spend most of the day doing absolutely nothing at all.

A quiet badger for a busy week. Sometimes the strongest creatures are the ones that simply keep moving forward.

@TheMutantAges. I'm listening your Spidey episodes now. What if Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends was more like Three's Company? Aunt May being zhuzhed up into a Mrs. Roaper with the pluck of Furley, letting Angelica live in her building under the assumption that she's lez?

[Ken Coleman @Coleman_Boston]

Proof that evolution sometimes says: what if mouse… but with extra snoot?
