Secrets

From the sketchbook

Jamie Hayter.

I drew Jamie Hayter on one of my blank Wrestletober covers, and it was a good time. Hayterade for everyone.

Bye!

Henlo. It my birthday this month, and I thought I would try something new. Yes, you’ve not heard the rumors– it’s true. I will be offering $20 headshot, postcard-size (4x6") commissions for 20 people.

They will look something like this, more or less. Ink on 2-ply Strathmore 400 Series Bristol. If I add an accent color, it will be my choice and no charge to you the gift-giver/art-receiver. All commissions will be shipped by the end of June.

~Hit this jump to put your commission request forward!~

(No halftones because that would probably boost the price, and I wanted to keep it relatively affordable for folks. These digital ones do look nice though.)

In addition~~ if you like and share and comment on this reel-post you’ll be entered into a randomizer to WIN this Battle-Ravaged Peter Parker Spider-Man sketch I demo’d. There will be more demos to come, and those will also be randomizo’d. I think. (I should probably sell them, but m a r k e t i n g).

Wrestletober 16: Eddie Guerrero

If there’s one thing you can know about me it’s that Eddie Guerrero is my G.O.A.T. The style, the personality, the look, the legacy– Eddie is an influential figure in wrestling that can’t be denied. We miss him everyday.

Eddie is in my new Wrestletober zine. (I couldn’t think of a better name–fight me.) It’s gonna be available first at MoCCA Fest, and then online, too. Ok.

Wrestletober 15: Asuka

Asuka is one of the most accomplished wrestlers ever. It’s in the books. Always cool to see her work. Asuka Vs. Bianca Belair was a nice one if you caught it at Wrestlemania this year. Ok

Asuka is in my new Wrestletober zine. (I couldn’t think of a better name–fight me.) It’s gonna be available first at MoCCA Fest, and then online, too. Ok.

Wrestletober 14: Jamie Hayter

I’m hooked on the Hayterade. Jamie Hayter is very cool and very strong. She’s had some really great matches last year, and I’m looking forward to seeing more featuring her. From Toni Storm to Hikaru Shida and more, the sky is the limit for Jamie Hayter, I think.

I can we hear the demands for Jamie Hayter Vs. Mercedes Mone?

Jamie is in my new Wrestletober zine. (I couldn’t think of a better name–fight me.) It’s gonna be available first at MoCCA Fest, and then online, too. Ok.

Wrestletober 13: Bandido

Bandido Bandido Bandido. I think he’s one of the most exciting luchadores working today. (I say this after watching El Hijo Del Vikingo Vs. Kenny Omega a few weeks ago.) Bandido’s got style all his own. I can’t stay away.

I wonder what’s another dream match for Bandido?

Bandido is in my new Wrestletober zine. (I couldn’t think of a better name–fight me.) It’s gonna be available first at MoCCA Fest, and then online, too. Ok.

Wrestletober 12: Katsuyori Shibata

Shibata is the wrestler. I love watching his matches back, and I feel like I still haven’t seen enough of what he’s been able to do. He isn’t wrestling a lot right now, but I’m eager to see any match he has coming up in the future.

His match with Wheeler Yuta for the Ring of Honor PURE Championship was very good, and I can’t wait to see if he teams up with Eddie Kingston or if he has some involvement in Forbidden Door 2.

Shibata is in my new Wrestletober zine. (I couldn’t think of a better name–fight me.) It’s gonna be available first at MoCCA Fest, and then online, too. Ok.

Wrestletober 11: Dante Martin

Dante Martin had a great year in 2022 competing in singles-matches. I know some folks have some opinions about high-flying wrestlers, but I think they have a place! Dante does some really cool maneuvers, and he does them pretty effortlessly. Anyway, now that his brother Darius is back in competition, it’s exciting to see Top Flight in action. (*hinting at the tag-team version of this series).

I saw a spoiler from ROH Supercard of Honor where Dante suffered a gnarly injury. I hope he’s doing better now, and that his recovery is smooth.

Dante is in my new Wrestletober zine. (I couldn’t think of a better name–fight me.) It’s gonna be available first at MoCCA Fest, and then online, too. Ok.

Wrestletober 10: Seth Freakin’ Rollins

Seth Rollins puts on solid matches every time. 2022 alone featured some great ones. I chose the Stomp here because it’s a pretty brutal looking maneuver. I remember coming back into wrestling because @chrespyo was into it, and it was around the time of The Shield, too. Wrestling is a lot of nostalgia for me (like a lot of folks) but it’s also got fantastic, riveting stories going on now– in nearly all the major promotions, too. Seth is one of those dependable storytellers.

Seth is in my new Wrestletober zine. (I couldn’t think of a better name–fight me.) It’s gonna be available first at MoCCA Fest, and then online, too. Ok.

Wrestletober 9: Orange Cassidy

Hey. I wasn’t done with my Wrestletober. Maybe I should have been but, whatever. @orangecassidy is one of my favorites. I think the counters and reversals are always a delight when they happen. His matches with Will Ospreay and Shibata last year won’t leave my brain. I always make an effort to make time for when Orange has a match on TV or on premiums. Plus, he’s from NJ? Or…wherever.

Orange is in my new Wrestletober zine. (I couldn’t think of a better name–fight me.) It’s gonna be available first at MoCCA Fest, and then online, too. Ok.

Wrestletober 8: Bianca Belair

(Oh. Just because October is finished, doesn’t mean I’m done with this hyper-fixation. I’ll likely do more (up to 16 for this round), but I’ll have to move the Rasslin’ to the backburner, as I feel compelled to do different things that I’ve been slacking on).

Bianca Belair has been on my radar for a long time. Despite not really watching a lot of WWE until this year (I’ve kept up on Wrestlemania’s and Royal Rumbles exclusively, I think), Belair is always a figure I’m excited to see. She’s strong as heck, and has a lot of style and charisma. She’s just so good.

Wrestletober 7: Toni Storm

Toni Storm is amazing. She’s had so many great matches this year, and the AEW Women’s Championship defenses have been great as well since she’s won it from Thunderosa. Yeah, she is technically only interim champion, but we’ll see how it plays. I’m just enjoying the ride from here on out.
