Single Handed Sonic Boom?!!!

Friday, April 23rd, 2010

Jake said, “Hey, Mr. Bevington! Wanna to see what I drew over the summer?” and Bev said, “Always, Jake. You’re my most bestest favoritest dolly-partonest student in the whole Solar System!” Pulling out the picture (below), Jake said, “Artgasm on this!!!”

. . . and then with all his superhuman strength Bev screamed, and the word Bev screamed was “HERESY!!!” and it was so mighty that it was heard as far as the Wedge.

The Superhero Game: Genesis

Friday, October 30th, 2009

The CRAAB version of The Superhero Game (or SHG) was devised in Mr. Bevington’s Westwood High School Art Class sometime in the early months of 1993. Its advent was inspired by the need to avoid doing the actual projects assigned by Bevington.  Below is (what could very well be) the first SHG ever played by CRAAB.  It was first thought that each subsequent character should be able to defeat the previous character (thus Super Long Cape Man Vs. Super Hardly Can Fly Because of His Huge Cape Stepping Foot Man) but that rule was found to be too limiting and was quickly abandoned. The participants were Jake Parker, Tim Boyle and Kohl Glass.

Buddy Pass 1999

Friday, October 16th, 2009

Ten years ago, a member of CRAAB took a PhotoShop class at MCC and created this picture. The assignment was to design a cover for a magazine of the student’s choice. What “magazine” did this CRAAB choose to design for? CraabQuinoX.

In this picture, a then blond, Agent 44 is firing his gun at an off screen enemy while Katana holds onto both Agent 44‘s tactical harness and a towline coming from what appears to be a red Bell X-1 flying over New York City.  Notice the photo-real detail on the buildings, the plane, and the bottom of the boots compared to the comic-book like rendering of the pictured CRAABs themselves.  This was done intentionally to cover the artist’s inability to draw geometric shapes and backgrounds. Notice also the Gaussian Blur aura popping our heroes out from the background. This was a technique heavily used by this artist during, what has been dubbed, his “Filter Abuse Period”.

Upon completion, this piece was given the name of “Buddy Pass” for lack of a better title.
