I like to make things.
I used to make things professionally, now I make things for fun.
Theme Parks are really the best.
I'm sure @magicaltrash.com has seen this picture, but it's one of my favorites. Where is Walt Disney headed? What is he thinking? I love it.

I found this in my recipe collection tonight. I had asked for the recipe when we ate at the Blue Bayou back in '97 and they gave me this. I have made it twice in the last 28 years and it was delicious both times. Sadly, I haven't been able to make reservations there for at least the last 6 years.

Introduce yourself with four spaceships.

I designed and built this bipedal drone (robot) for that animated project I'm slowly circling while I decide whether to jump in and commit. Anyway, I really like it.

Age yourself with gaming.

I could not wait for this version of Space Mountain to open. I snapped this around 1994 at Disneyland Paris.

I was there, Gandalf. I was there 3000 years ago. I was at Disneyland when there was only one park you could walk to from your car.

When Disney replaced Bugs Land at DCA with the Avengers Campus, we were tasked with building a working prop that Ant Man or the Wasp could carry around with them. I built all the rides, the restroom and a vending cart and we printed them out really, really tiny. There were two used at the park.

So I've been on a cleaning bender for awhile now and just found these images of a steam powered robot. I made a short live action film about 15 years ago. The story wasn't great, but it looked really cool. These guys were essentially dockworkers.

1922 was a banner year for Coca Cola. Here's the original Coke polar bear!

If you haven't had a look at Three Panel Soul, you're missing out. This one made me snort out my coffee.

Here's some attraction photos from Park Aventura. If I find any of my photos I'll post em here.

In '98 Vegas was still in the theme park game. Star Trek the Experience opened at the Las Vegas Hilton, and Rhythm & Hues was invited to the opening festivities. (I animated most of the show, with the exception of the Crellian Dyzan. (the space cows))

In 93' While ILM was animating dinosaurs, Rhythm and Hues was working on a motion base ride for a now defunct theme park in Japan. I built a lot of models for Seafari, including the whale sub, but this was also my first animation gig. Lorne Lanning was the art director.

So we're cleaning out the picture closet where Teresa and I store all our memories and I found this. Yeah. Year I graduated from high school. The San Diego Comic Con was a lot smaller 36 years ago, but damn, it was cool.

Yeah, jet-lag has gotten the best of me this week, but I did finish this portable missile launcher I designed while on vacation. I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Man eating plants. Gotta watch out for them.

I'm really glad I picked this Silly Symphony pencil cup at Disneyland when I did. I am always running out of places to drop used pens, pencils and scissors, so they tend to get lost.

This sign confused me. At first I thought it was a winding road, but then I wondered if the snakes on Gibraltar were just lazy.

While traveling, I feel the urge to draw, since I can't build things. As soon as I get home, this is the next asset I will build for one of my personal projects.
