Behold the Yardmaster

Guess who bought a chainsaw?

I’ve had this weird fascination with the way chainsaws are inherently linked to fantasy violence well before they’re linked to utility. Its a social norm that we inherently opt for a macabre form over function. Maybe its because we know more crappy slasher films than we know people who own chainsaws, but the chainsaw will always have this stigma of being a romanticized instrument of death than a simple motorized tool.

I dunno, they are pretty vicious looking.

Point being, I bought this kickass Yardmaster (no, i do not keep it gassed up, no it does not work), and I’ve got a couple ideas kickin’ around my head for different projects exploring modern society’s relationship with the chainsaw. First and foremost are portraits. Get in touch if you wanna come over and have your picture taken wielding the Yardmaster.

I’ve got new artwork, fun anecdotes and new Haunted Castle songs to post up here, but I’ll get to it later. I got better things to do than sit around all day bloggin’ about stuff. …that would make me a blogger.
