Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving! I ate a ton of bird. I have so much to be thankful for. I have a great family- awesome friends- a decent beard- my health and most of my sanity. I am thankful for a pile of great fans and friends who dig Callgrim. I am always amazed at how many people take part in the Callgrim launches. I am both flattered and humbled. You guys are the best. Your continued interest in this stuff allows for me to grow the line and experiment with new things. Thank you! You guys are the best!

Frenemies Roll Out

I painted up some of the three part test shots of the bike in China. The paint there is delicious. I worked closely with the crew over there to make sure they could get the Custom Corps look- They pulled it off. There are many applications, masks and washes all over these things.

The debut of the bikes will bring new things to the table for Callgrim by way of presentation, paint apps and content. I am excited about this launch and proud of what we did here. The fist roll out of this new thing deserves the royal treatment. I want to pay special attention to the two main players here- Callgrim and Riac. Their relationship is complex and their story is important to the future of Callgrim and the role of the Order in the Glyos System.

WARP Bike Concept Sketches

Matt and I did a ton of sketches. We blew through Buxton paper like crazy- It was a creative blur- a perfect fusion. I couldn't tell where my beard ended and his began...

'Grim Reaper

It's finally here- Callgrim's ride. This thing has been a long time in the making. Callgrim was first shown on his bike in the Gear's Edge comic. That bike was modeled after Rechlen's Crater Hopper from the Rechlen and Aves photo book. The chasis for the WARP Bike is a fusion of elements from both. The front of the bike is WARP technology. Callgrim retro fits the common black core driven hopper style bikes with WARP enhanced battle fixtures and powerful engines. Steal a bit from this- enhance with that and juice the whole thing up with WARP tech. That's how Callgrim rolls.

Matt and I drew a ton of bikes- The final look of the bike is a result of countless revisions to dozens of drawings and designs. Matt's sculpt truly captures the look of a death machine of multiple origins using different kinds of tech. The half blind fuck hit another one out of the park. Thanks brother-
