Update 8.3

Ok so its been a while since i actually made a post about what i am up to in my world. Well to be honest i've been pretty busy. I've finally got myself a new iMac for my new office which is going to be my base of operations with all my future projects.

Myself and Tony, InkMonkey Designs, are setting up shop under the Eightpoint3 Designs name. Website will follow as will any more details we have to offer. We'll be offering a full design service to anyone who requires a designers touch or influence. Many sleepless nights will ensue but its something that we both want and to be honest we probably both need. We'll be 100% committed to producing work we are proud of and that people will tell their friends or colleagues about.

Recently developed a really unhealthy obsession with Twitter. I don't know what it is but god i love it. If you fancy following me, Kiff182. Thats where its at.

Throw Some Shapes People...

Check out the Octopus!

Blink182 got together and shot some sort of video, nobody knows what it is exactly what they were doing but i am sure we'll here soon as possible.

As people has been noticing recently Mark's kind of got himself a little logo going on in the form of an Octopus. He Recently did a photo shoot for personal promo shots with a plastic Octopus, and he's had the designed added to his new Bass. Would love a version of that bass!

Head on over here to see all the pics.

New 5* Hotel in London

Apparently, this has just been approved by the Mayor of London and is going to be situated close to Heathrow airport. If you’re a frequent flier to the UK, you’ll be pleased to know that the Bath Road property will have all the amenities you could ask for—sustainability, energy efficiency, meeting facilities and restaurants, a gym, pool and spa, even a bowling alley.

Looks really nice. 5 Star too so its probably going to be out of my league... for now. You can see more of it here

Lovely Bass Licks

Mark Hoppus' new signature bass guitar by Fender. Loving the paint job, apparently you can see the wood grain through the paint job. Also, look at the neck of the guitar and you can see the smiley blink182 face. I have the previous model, in egg shell green, love the sounds you can get out of it! This one is lovely!

My Love.

Just found this in the depths of my external hard drive. Think its a really nice pic. This is my girlfriend Jaime modelling for our clothing company City of the Sun.

Been playing.

New and updated me. Been playing around with PhotoBooth. That thing is addictive.

Shiny New.

My new workstation, my place of zen. Ok, i didn't need it but by god i wanted it. So much better than our old crappy PC.
This will be my base of operations for the upcoming colab from myself and INKmonkey, our design service will offer high quality designs for the masses, design isn't exclusive and should be available to Joe Bloggs.

Mail me or call me and get more details.

Phoenix's finest on two wheels...



Loving this. This isnt going to be easy because the bikes arent the lightest on the road! Got to give credit where credit is due.

The Bastard Child of a Rolls and a Hummer!


This needs no introduction. All i will say is that this is the ugliest car/truck/SUV i have ever seen. Quite funny really!

The future of motoring??

This is a new model Tesla. The new sedan version follows on from the roadster that featured on last seasons Top Gear.  The Model-S has a 300-mile range, a 30 minute quick charge capability (@ a 480v charging station), can carry up to 7 people and can even do 0-60mph in less than 4 seconds. 

Very impressive, but when you consider that the Tesla roadster took around 16 hours to charge to get 200 miles range from it, will it be any better?? 

You can't knock Tesla for its looks though. With subtle undertones of Aston Martin, Jaguar and, in my opinion, Maserati, its certainly a looker.

Classy Time Piece.


Lovin this time piece. Blancpain are making this in limited numbers, and each one will have the individual numbers engraved on the back. Limited to 300 pieces and inspired by the Lamborghini Gallardo, Very Very Nice. Bit out of my price range i reckon.

Help... I'm Alive

Ok so i have decided to not just use my blog for my design work. Its going to be for anything i think i should share and maybe just a few snippets of things i probably shouldn't share. First things first... 

Make sure you check this album out. Metric's Fantasies is awesome. Some brilliant tunes on here, you expect nothing less from an album produced by the mighty Mark Hoppus... the only thing missing is a hoppus colab on there. 

Grab it from your local store or Itunes. 

Check em out here

Gone with the wind...

Ok the title is a little wierd, its the only thing i could think of due to the current gale thats pounding my windows! Got a few new poster ideas clattering around my mind which i need to try and get down on paper. I need to shop about for a few things for the PC and get my Macbook in for a much needed service.

my boy over @ INKMonkey has his blog up and running now so head over to http://inkmonkeydesigns.blogspot.com and see what he has to offer.

In the meantime, god is love Rev Kiff!
