Much like in years past we are participating in Inktober again this year! Last year was a lot of fun drawing each and every day with my daughter and this year looks to be no different, except she now has her own Instagram account (@AbbyDoodlesArt) and will be posting her own artwork there. Yay!

Like last year with our 2018 Inktober results I ask y’all to scroll through and check out what we did in 2019. I made this handy little table so you don’t have to scroll too much, just click the links and be sure to like, comment, and follow!

This year we will be doing something just a little bit different as well. Instead of working directly from the Inktober prompt list, Abby wanted to also use the Cartoon Network prompt list. So we are adding that to the mix and we shall see how it turns out! There may even be a few on the Cartoonber list that I may even try drawing this year, but I will mainly be sticking to the official Inktober prompt list. Either way it’s going to be a good time this year just as it always has been these last couple of years!

Be sure to follow us on Instagram (@dadSTL / @AbbyDoodlesArt) and if you are feeling like joining maybe even get out some pens and paper and try your own Inktober!

Welcome to Earth with Men in Black International!

September 6, 2019September 6, 2019 Richie Leave a comment

Sony Pictures has recently released the hit Men in Black International on Blu-Ray, DVD, and Digital and you can pick up your own copy today! We here at St. Louis Dad love all things aliens and so when Sony Pictures and Budsies reached out to help with a promotion for the upcoming release we could not pass up this awesome opportunity.

Our task was to create our own alien that would fit right into the Men in Black universe and then Budsies would take our drawing and turn it into a reality. Being the excellent delegate of the family I assigned the task of illustrating this creature to my favorite artist, my daughter! With her materials she went to work crafting an alien that represented her, our family, and of course the Men in Black!

In no time our master doodler had an alien worth bringing home to Earth to send over to the wonderful folks at Sony Pictures and Budsies.

Here is Sillie The Alien! Sillie was created by my 8 year old daughter and she said that Sillie is a small, soft, friendly, green alien that floats around the dark side of the Earth’s Moon! Sillie has a big blue and pink heart that is separated by an EKG line that beats to the rhythm of Sillie’s favorite music! With big adorable black eyes Sillie is sure to steal hearts, and when Sillie is happy, big blue circles and hearts appear!

This drawing was submitted to Sony Pictures and Budsies and they immediately got to work on the alien creature! A few weeks later and there was a box on this dad’s doorstep with a very recognizable creature inside… it was Sillie The Alien!!!

Along with a blu-ray copy of Men in Black International was this amazing plush alien provided by Sony Pictures and Budsies. So now not only can we watch the new Men in Black International movie with Sillie at home, but we can watch it on the go with digital as well!

Grab a copy of MIB anywhere you grab your favorite movies and enjoy another amazing installment to the MIB universe!

And if you want your very own alien creature… just head on over to Budsies and get started today! Act now to take advantage of their early bird discount for the holiday season that is quickly approaching!!!

Sony Pictures and Budsie provided this opportunity in exchange for social media postings to promote the new MIB blu-ray release!
