Here’s the finished Williams/Bally Pinball Mashup I created! Officially licensed through Williams. Available on Translites, posters, and banners.
It was really run to mess around with these iconic characters a little and add my own style to them. Did I leave any games out that should have been in this?

All my discs are now wrapped up, and shipped out!! (except for a couple that requested ink drawings on the back – I’m working on those now). Most are SOLD OUT, except for “Dead and Deader.”
Thank you so much for your patience everyone. I know that some of you were waiting quite a long time for these, due to the factory COVID shutdown. We’re working on a plan to make sure that delay doesn’t happen again.
Also, thanks so much to Discraft, for working behind the scenes to get these to me as fast as they could. I’ve ordered hundreds and hundreds of discs from them now, and have never once had a scratch, misprint, or incorrect quantity. They are truly the best!
We’ll be focusing on “Dead and Deader” in June, and then getting back to a regular schedule again with a new LE Foil Buzzz.
Thanks for your support!

I had the chance to be part of this really cool and helpful project. Silverball Swag had me create this “Flipping Off Cancer” logo for to raise money for Cancer research among the Pinball Community.
Profits from merch will be distributed between the American Cancer Society and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
Help them out at Silverball Swag – they have the image available on shirts, hats, mugs, and hoodies.

I’m proud to present my artwork for my Officially Licensed alternate Medieval Madness Translite and Acrylic Backglass!
I asked for a lot of feedback from Medieval Madness fans before starting. It was suggested that I illustrate the Six Kings of each of the Castles you destroy in the game. The Earl of Ego, Sir Psycho, Francois De Grimm, Lord Howard Hurtz, the Duke of Bourbon, and of course, Payne! It was also suggested that I add a bunch of tributes to Monty Python’s Holy Grail, so I snuck in as many as I could. Overall, the general feedback was that they wanted to see something more colorful, light-hearted, and fun than the original backglass art, which was created by the legendary pinball artists, Greg Freres and John Youssi.
This is my most detailed and time-consuming alternate Backglass so far (I’ve also designed one for Attack From Mars, and another for Monster Bash). Medieval Madness is a highly respected and coveted pinball game, and I wanted to put everything I had into this to pay it the respect it deserved. I hope fans of the game are satisfied!
Details in my shop!

I drew tons of the arcade bad guys I grew up with – Donkey Kong, Bowser, Centipede, Mother Brain, Dr. Robtnik, and a bunch more. Luckily, they are still going to have this available on a t-shirt – I also have a limited series of posters printed up for this. #pinball #midwestgamingclassic #mgc2020 #videogames #arcade #retroarcade #sonicthehedgehog #mario #pinballart

Jared Moraitis from BeastWreck (work shown above) is one of my all-time favorite artists. So I was thrilled to learn that he often uses my custom Clip Studio Paint Brushes. Check out this kind testimonial he wrote for me: Digital inking is something I reluctantly embraced due to necessity. I didn’t care for it at first, but that changed when I discovered Brian Allen’s sets of amazing inking tools for Manga Studio/Clip Paint. I’m amazed not only at the range of brushes he has created and made available, but also by the wonderful variety of lines, strokes and effects I am able to easily create with them. I know I can rely solely on these amazing tools and brushes to easily handle any sort of look or feel I might need to create (and even some that I had no idea I COULD create) ••• Check them out here:http://clipstudiopaintbrushes.com/•••#clipstudiopaint #csp #digitalart #digitalpainting #brushes #texturebrushes #mangastudio #illustration
