The BrikWars guy. Former (and now future, again) LEGO guy.
Concept designer and illustrator behind many of your favorite LEGO themes and games, and somehow also the old Roblox logo. I don't know, I can't explain it either.

Hi! I guess I need some kind of intro here. I'm a designer with a long history at LEGO and a bunch of digressions into tabletop and video games. I also made the original Roblox logo and BrikWars. Currently freelancing in illustration and whatever odd jobs strike my fancy.

Every day of home improvement, the house gets better and my injuries get worse. I'll be just a mass of splints and bandages by the time we move out, but the house will be fabulous

Every door in my house has a different key, which doesn't seem like that big a deal until I tell you that we just got a delivery of ten identically-keyed entry doorknobs and now have to knuckle down and do power rankings for which ten entry doors are the most important

Got the family together opening up hundreds of LEGO sets from the backlog, packing the contents up for the move, watching LEGO documentaries on the TV we'll be leaving behind.

This meme is funny to me because I've always been stuck involuntarily mirroring whatever I'm working on. If I'm drawing a nefarious hedgerow, I'm nefarious. If I'm painting a lazy but mildly annoyed pile of bricks, I'm lazy but mildly annoyed. There's no space for a mood of my own while working.

Driving the 7yo to school, listening to Kid News, and we hear that there's been a Super Bowl
What happened to the playoff fever that normally crushes New England in its cruel inescapable grip for weeks? This is the first we heard about the Super Bowl this year, and it's already over

Getting rid of lots of stuff before we move to Europe. Including all my old 5.25" and 3.5" floppies and the drives with which to read them. They've held up surprisingly well for magnetic media, all things considered

Friends in the TTRPG sphere, if you are invited onto a project and there is: no contract, no structure, no deadline and you have been brought on while things are still being figured out: do not do the work until you have those things.

I got a haircut, and the 7yo says I look like Matthew Ashton.
He's 7
How does he know who Matthew Ashton is
