LOST: The Animated Series Project By Michael Myers

I was lucky enough to come across the amazing drawings of Michael Blaine Myers Jr. quite by accident. This then led me to do some googling and I was thrilled to find the portfolio and work of this extremely talented artist.

He has so many wonderful pieces that it's hard not to reproduce his entire portfolio right here on my blog for my readers to see.

But first, given that I'm a huge LOST fan and the series is soon coming to an end (*sob* tonight is the second to last episode), let me share with you his fabulous character illustrations of most key characters on the Island:

Kate:

Jack:

Sawyer:

Sayid:

Charlie:

Hurley (Hugo):

Sun:

Jin:

John Locke:

Benjamin Linus:

Daniel Faraday:

Miles:

Desmond:

Charles Widmore:

Mr Ecko:

The Smoke Monster:

Jacob:

Richard:

even Walt:


You can purchase posters of most of each of his animated characters or the whole gang here.

Super Sexy CPR Sells Fortnight Lingerie

Here's a case where the blatant use of temperature-raising -and quite possibly body part raising- video of two scantily clad women touching one another is actually appropriate (now there's a sentence I never thought I'd write).

The product being sold is lingerie. Handmade in Canada, Toronto-based Fortnight Lingerie is modern, highly tailored and yes, sexy. The small company has come up with a clever way to sell themselves: an 'educational' video of cpr training as demonstrated by models donning their product.



The company's product difference is that they sell pieces especially designed and tailored to fit more women than the narrow range offered by most North American manufacturers, which is sizes 34–38, A-D, and represents only 30% of women. Fortnight Lingerie offers sizes A-F, 30 -40.

 

The actual product line is minimal (in more ways than one) with 6 styles for Spring 2010:
