Tim Shinn is a freelance artist. He’s known for his storyboarding, advertising and comic work. Tim’s done art for Hasbro, Disney, Dark Horse and Fun Publications. Tim takes commissions and regularly posts art for sale. When I saw this sketch of Sly Stallone as Rambo,  I didn’t hesitate. Hopefully there will be more Tim Shinn art in my future.  You can see more of Tim Shinn’s art on his Instagram page and his Twitter feed.

Craig / / 2023, Celebs, Horses, Unmade Films

When Sly Stallone was in college, he and his buddy, John Herzfeld worked on a project together called Horses.  It was a film that involved time travel.  Sadly it was never completed.  Here is a photo from the project that I cleaned up a bit.  Sly and Herzfeld stayed lifelong friends and both went on to careers in Hollywood.  They worked together on the feature films Reach Me and Escape Plan: The Extractors.
