Here are a bunch of new prints coming your way, September 15th. If you end up coming to our show at Red Hot Robot, you can get them first. All are 12×18 film, with a pleasing satin finish. I’ll be adding them to the store soon.

I’ve not been able to do Illustration Friday of late, because I’ve been working on this here ole Monster Commute comic strip. (And enjoying myself, even!) But, this week’s theme of “Packed” made me immediately think of the highways of Phoenix, Arizona (and by extension the monster world of Monstru). So, here’s a “Packed” highway [...]
So, here’s a brand new piece, for this weeks Illustration Friday theme, “Pretend”. Yep, all new, and soon to be a print. This is an example of Beastio (the red one), daydreaming about how his commute should really go… through a golden, peaceful sky. In reality, he’s just stuck in traffic like the rest of [...]
Being one of the 13th sloppiest people in the world, I can assure you that cleaning is not one of my strengths. I’m messy, and I’m not terribly shy about admitting it. However, there is one thing in my life (okay, two things, smartass) that I must keep clean at all costs; my glasses. If [...]
Monstru Pirate Radio (MPR) is happy to be talking to Baba Jaga, today. MPR: Baba Jaga (Baba) has spent the last few hundred years working as an assassin-hag, all across Monstru. MPR: Welcome to our show! Baba: Jes. MPR: So, how long have you been an… assassin? Baba: Many the time. I have killed with [...]
Fake letter: Dear D-Master Daniel-SAN – Why do you do what you do, the way that you do? Stay Cool! – Fakus99 Dear Fakus – Thank you for writing. I do what I do, because it’s how I like to live. I live to create “stuff”. It could have been sand-sculpture or furniture making or [...]
The design of Chadworth Machine is an amalgamation of all kinds of robot designs I’ve seen, over the years. He’s got a Bender chest hatch, a Mignola dome-skull, and clank-janky hands. I wanted him to be familliar and relateable. To be perfectly honest, Chadworth’s skull is really where the soul of the character lives, regardless [...]
Confession time: I’m obsessed with traffic. No, no, not that kind. Seeing bunches of cars doesn’t help my heart rate, it just burns it up. I’m talking about web traffic. I’m obsessed with watching the numbers of people who visit our websites. I check Monster Commute’s traffic about 5 times per day. I check the [...]
MONSTRU NEWS BRIEF #52983019574272-7 AXE SHORTAGE STRIKES THE MONSTRULAND Iltak, Gabbat. Hundreds line up to purchase assorted axes from registered axe dealers, as fear of CREATU invasion grips the nation. Many have waited hours and even days, for the chance to purchase one double-bitted battleaxe. “It’s the only thing that’ll stop those CREATU,” said Max [...]
And yeah, I meant to leave out Chad’s head, there. It’s there, but you just can’t see it, because it floated too low. <> Growing up without electricity (through most of my Highschool years), we learned to do without. We didn’t have a shower, so in the summer we’d hang a hose on a tree, [...]
Tools that I can’t use very well: Chainsaw Hammer Electric knife Typewriter C++ Hay Bale Tools that I’m okay with: Tractor Computer Dog Dungeon and Dragons dice Goat Styro Medieval weapon Tools I’m pretty good with: Vector art pen tool Bass guitar Bic pen Star Wars action figure Putty Woodland creature – Daniel
Games I like games, and like the idea of games, much more than I actually get to play them. I’ve always wanted to play Monsters Menace America, though I’ve only played it maybe twice, at work. My son Kaid is all over it, since it features his favorite thing in the whole world: Kaiju. Once [...]
Preparation from the San Diego Comic-Con rolls on, at epic pace. I’m now hip-deep in about 10 different projects that I need to finish in 25 odd days. This is a good thing, as these events really help drive us ahead to create new art, new products, and so on. Those of you that we’ve [...]
Yeah, so sometimes I’ve touched things that I really shouldn’t have. This includes: Fire. (I set my toys on fire. And carpet.) Barbed wire. (4 yr old Danny D.) The bottom of my belly button. (Direct connection to spinal cord.) Psycho-billy. (A deranged male goat.) Glass (On several occasions.) My mom’s antique butter churn. (Broken.) [...]
As you might know, Monster Commute is a production of our company “Steam Crow.” It’s not like we’re corporate by any means (we’re not), as it’s just Dawna and me doing everything. However, I didn’t want to call the company “Daniel McDavis” since I wanted Dawna to be really involved. Why “Steam Crow?” Well, the [...]
