Inanimate History: Star Wars

I’m a part of the Star Wars generation. And no matter how much the Prequels stank, I will never shake my love for Star Wars. Like so many people my age, it’s part of me, whether I like it or not. I recently came across some old art, and thought (read more...)

Inanimate History: Old Customs

I recently stumbled across the last remaining evidence of some of my early efforts at customizing. Most of these are from 1994-1995. I’d been customizing all my life. I simply didn’t know it had a name until that point. Bear in mind there was no internet or Photoshop back then. (read more...)

Casimir’s Collection 2014

It’s been five years since the last collection set of images appeared. Time for a new batch! Please bear in mind I did little in the way of preparation for these. I simply got a bee in my bonnet and starting shooting photos of the shelves in their natural habitat. (read more...)

CAPE 2004 Report

Okay, technically it wasn’t called CAPE until 2005, but that’s how I think of this. If this were a comic, it would be issue #0. This was my first time to display my creations publicly at Zeus (best comic shop in Dallas!), and I had a great time meeting people (read more...)

CAPE 2006 Report

Wow! CAPE 2006 was huge! We had over 60 guests and 6,000 attendees. Even the afternoon rain couldn’t stop this joint from jumpin’! And just to put a shiny touch on everything, the mayor of Dallas officially declared May 6, 2006 as Free Comic Book Day. You can learn more (read more...)

CAPE 2007 Report

Once again, CAPE demonstrated how to throw a great event! With dozens of guests and thousands of attendees, it’s the biggest Free Comic Book Day event anywhere. And like last year, the rain did not stop the fans from coming out. I spoke with many interesting and interested people, both (read more...)

“Best Action Figures” of Dallas

Those of you who don’t live in Texas may not be familiar with D Magazine. You might call it the Vanity Fair of Texas. It’s a long-standing, respected magazine that covers the arts and politics, and can be found in book and grocery stores across this great state. Once a (read more...)
