    Hello,

    With many of the recent changes in my life, and dealings with people/fans who aren't quite as polite or tasteful as the gang here, and also general boredom, I am no longer doing pin-ups.  My site, the electricsportsbra is dead.  This online identity of fedx2k-whatever year, is also going away for good.  This was not an easy decision but I believe myself to have been in a quagmire that I had to make a drastic change to get out of.

    So why am I posting here?

    Well, the way I see it, Amaz0ns fans have been some of the most supportive and generous fans I have had.  While I may not get much feedback in the capacity of fan e-mails or what have you, every SINGLE time lingster posted something about ye olde ESB either in a blog post or on shulkie.com, my hits SKYROCKETED.  I think fedx's popularity is largely in part to you people and I don't think I would have gotten near the size I did with out your support and I humbly thank you.  So, I am giving you all something that no one else has, the FINAL pin-ups I will ever do.  NSFW of course!  Also a few of them were just sketches and as you can see I started to veer a bit into the more risque territory which, I tried to do tastefully but eh, you'll see.  Nothing hardcore of course.  Also you will see a few sketches I did for a certain *close* friend of mine 🙂

    Please enjoy, these will be up for as long as I can keep convincing my friend to borrow his image hosting space.  What comes next for me is a bit of secret, but just to confirm it won't be pin-ups so I don't know if you guys will dig on it.  Who knows tho'?!

    It's a great shame that someone so talented and so established is going to hang up his drawing gloves.

    Many thanks for these images and all those that have gone before, not to mention, good luck for the future.

    well…it's not so much the gloves are being dropped they're going on different hands now.

    My style is somewhat flexible, so this is more of a sabbatical from T+A if anything.  There's a much more complicated reason for this but I really can't go into it without playing all my cards unfortunately.

    thanks dude.

    I'm truly sorry to see that your leaving the pin-up field. I hope that you're not leaving art all together. The pin-ups shall be missed but I hope that you wander by to make a comment or three.

    Hope things will go better for you and you'll find something you'll enjoy to do. Going to miss your art, but if you ever want to post something again, we'll be here and you can just post comments from time to time.

    I've always enjoyed your pin-up good girl art, since you draw and colour with a beautiful, warm and quite unique/distinctive style.  I too am sorry to hear that you're going, but wish you all the very best with future endeavours.  Thanks for being so good to us too!

    …and another one bites the dust.  :'(

    Sad to see you go; you have my best wishes in your future endeavors.

    And that's a hell of a "parting gift" you've left us; many thinks!  You'll be sorely missed.

    Thanks for sharing your weird and wonderful art with us.

    Your alluring pin ups have been cast from all sorts of unlikely, and personally relevant, pop culture locales and we're the richer for having been allowed to view them. 

    Video games, movies, commercials and lord knows what else has been tapped for your bitchin' strange one shots as well. I really got a kick out the adventures of Toilet Duck, the interpretations of your close friends as Kubrik-ized action figures and general mayhem.

    If you ever feel the need to get more 'exposure' your work is of pro enough caliber that it wouldn't be out of place in the local Borders book rack.

    In some strange way your site felt like experiencing a Troma flick except without the bad acting.  8)

    So fedx2k6 here's to your newest online illustration ventures wherever they may lead! Don't be a stranger. If you ever need insane visitor counts don't hesitate in knocking on this madhouse's door.

    PS your coloring tutorial has to have been the funniest I've ever read. A genuine combination of glee and milk snorting was had.

    Your girls make me happy. They always have. I hope you're not going to drop out of art altogether, but if so, thanks for the fond memories and this last, fantastic set of pictures.

    I hope the reason you've stopped the site is because you've been hired by a comic book company to draw for them.
