Good ol' Sports boy!

I was scrolling through some old cosplay shots trying to rustle up some motivation and I cam across these old Casey Jones shots and remembered how much I like them. A lot of people shit on them because I was wearing an Aeropostale hoodie, which I get, but in my head it made sense. Casey is known to be a poor dude who loves sports! This is a football hoodie that cost me like 4 bucks at value village. If that's not totally Casey's jam then I'm not sure what is. Long story short, I love these photo...

Back at it!

First I want to say thank you to everyone for the well wishes. Second I want to say that I'll be back with more regular postings this week! As for right now, here is an electrifying photo by Shaun Simpson! He even some how got me to smile. Weird.

Saturday/Sunday Skype canceled.

It's under extremely unfortunate circumstances that I need to cancel this weekend skypes due to a family emergency. I hope you can all understand. I will contact each of you personally as well.

April- April Fools Prints!

Since April fools is one of my favourite celebrations, I decided to do an April Fools theme for my print this month! The 8x10's are the  first one (which I cleverly call "fooling around") and the 3rd one (which is Ash giving his best pinup girl)! "Fooling around" is for Super Hero's and up and Pin-up Ash is for Side Kicks and above!

The other two, which I'm calling  "flippin' the bird" and "Nightwrong" are the 4x6 prints and there will actually be another 4x6 which is a secret!...

Strange but Fun Request

So a patreon member (shout out Derek!) came to me with this idea of editing together a lip sync video that is a mix of me and anyone who wants to take part (The song is the one attached to this post). Basically anyone who wanted to, could record a video of them singing or lip syncing to the song (whole or part) and then send it to me. This is the best example I can find for what I would like it to sort of look like h...

MOAR BATMAN!

Oh you know, just another shot wonderful shot by Shaun Simpson

More Batman!

So this is a better picture of the actual Dye-Sub suit itself (Which is clearly by the amazing Shaun Simpson). What I love about this suit is how dark the textures appear with out needing the addition of any sort of puff paint. The suit was designed by myself and my pal Nathan. Nathan did all the hard work of actually designing it on the computer and I played more of a producer role saying "well what if we did this instead of that". In retrospect, the suit kind of leaves a lot to be imagined, bu...

Batman beyond Dye-Sub Results!

I was lucky enough to get the chance to take some of my spandex costumes into a photo shoot with the magnificent Shaun Simpson (who you got to meet in my last video) and this is one of the first results. I'll post a full shot of the suit soon but for now, I wanted to post this one because I like the dynamic pose. MORE SOON!

Kinda NSFW behind the scenes video!

So I tried to make a behind the scenes video of my latest shoot with Shaun Simpson and it was a little to... naked? to post for the whole world so I'm just going to post it here for a bit and test the waters!

New Michael Hamm Does Stuff!

This one is the continuation of my first cosplay video! The first one explained how I got into cosplay and this one is more about what cosplay means to me. This video is admittedly, a little boring, but it really wasn’t mean to be a funny hahah video. Either way, I like it. (I may be a little biased) ENJOY!

Food babies!

I was shoulder and ab day, which I don't actually think is a good combo, but whatever. Shoulder was exactly the same as last time because I actually use my own patreon posts for motivation and consistency. Weird. So it was 4 sets of seated shoulder press with Dumbbells 10 reps (45,50,50,50) --- 4 sets of standing shoulder press with barbell 10 reps (80,80,80,80) --- wide grip push-ups 4 sets 15 reps ---5 sets of shoulder shrugs 15-12 reps (65, 70,75,70,65)--- 6 sets of lateral raises 12 reps (2...

legggy day

Finally, I was good enough to get in another leg day! Yesterday I was able to complete my entire leg routine which is 5 sets of squats 10 reps (125, 175, 215, 175, 125), 5 sets of 20 standing lunges (no weight), 5 sets of leg presses 8-10 reps (270, 405, 450, 405, 270), 7 sets leg extension machine 10 reps (80, 90, 100, 100, 90, 80, 50), 8 sets of calf raises 12-15 reps (270), 3 sets of wall sits 60 second each, Walk on the treadmill for 15 mins on a high incline. I should also note that I write...

Drunken Intro Video for Patreon!

DONT BE LIKE MIKE!

Subway, Oreos, and a Doritos back.

Yesterday was leg day! Or at least it was supposed to be until I tried to do a squat and realized one of my hamstrings had not fully recovered from the last leg day. Because of that I decided it was back day! Let's get started! --- First I warmed ups with some wide grip pull ups (4 sets, 12-15 reps), single arm dumbbell rows (4 sets per arm, 12 reps, 55lbs), bent-over barbell deadlifts (4 sets, 10 reps, 110lbs). At this point I was already tired so I took a break and walked on the treadmill for ...

"Rest" Day

Yesterday war rest day which essentially means you just don't do anything and allow your muscles a break. This is usually a good idea because science, but it's also good because I find myself extra motivated to get back to the gym when I take a day off. It wasn't meant to be my day off but now that I'm living with my parents, the hour long bus ride to the gym is a little daunting. I WILL GO TODAY THOUGH! (I hope)--- Today was not a great day for food. I skipped breakfast because my parents didn'...

Packing and 6 packing HA!

I am officially living with my parents again for a bit so I have been packing, and unpacking, and organizing, uuuugghhhhh. Anyway. So today was abs and cardio day and rather then try and describe my ab routine I found it online. If you haven't heard of ab ripper x, I highly recommend it. It's really hard at first but it gets easier. Currently I'll do it twice. It's the first thing I do when I get to the gym and then I follow it up with 3 mins of cardio. Today I did the elliptical for 15 and the ...

Today's fitness stuff was actually decent!

Today was shoulder day and if you've been keeping up then you'll under stand why this is all going to be written in one larger paragraph. So what I did today:4 sets of seated shoulder press with Dumbbells 10 reps (45,50,50,50) --- 4 sets of standing shoulder press with barbell 10 reps (80,80,80,80) --- wide grip push-ups 4 sets 15 reps ---5 sets of shoulder shrugs 15-12 reps (65, 70,75,70,65)--- 6 sets of standing flys (I don't know what they are actually called, but it when you lift your arms w...

Spider-Hamstrings!

So needless to say, yesterday was another weird day. It was originally leg day so I got up early and went to the gym. I did 3 set of squats and I was much more tired after that than I should have been. I think it was a mix of the fact that I was up late last night and stress because all the moving I should have done yesterday got postponed due to rain. I went on the treadmill to sort of try and gain so motivation and after 15 mins I realized I was better off to just leave and pack than to waste ...

Fitness junk day one!

So what I am about to write is the exact reason I tell people not to do what I do. <br><br>Today, all I had to eat was a protein shake for breakfast, a foot long veggie sub for lunch and then and the oatmeal for supper. In total that's probably around 1200 calories which is NOT enough. I'm going to have some beer now (because I just killed a huge presentation on same sex vs mixed sex views of sexual desire and communication) so that will add to the cals. But still, I'm awful. <br&...

Fitness and moving!

So over the next weekish I'll be slowly moving all my stuff to my parents house because I currently have no other place to live! Woo hoo! <br><br>What that means is that life is kinda on pause. Because of that, prints may take a little longer than usual. But what it also means is that I am going to take this week to get much more in depth into my diet and fitness routine. Everyday for the next 7 days I will be documenting everything I eat and what I do at the gym. <br><br>...

Fitness-ish video!

Well I finally finished the second part to my fitness video! 

It is about 10 mins long and took forever to edit because I honestly had to leave a lot out to make sure it wasn’t TOO boring. I essentially just covered 4 topics that you guys asked me to talk about: suppliments, meal prep, form, and motivation. 

Also, I bent my SD card which had two new videos on it. I took it to best buy to see if it could be restored but sadly, it cannot. So, my next video wi...

I'm an idiot!

As you may know, I was just in Washington DC for Kastsu con. But what you may not know is that I am also obsessed with Hamilton the musical. Needless to say, i was pretty excited and made a dumb 30 second video because i love to embarass myself on Patreon!

Enjoy!

Locked out!

I forgot my gym membership and there is no one to let me in for another hour so I'm finishing up the second half of my fitness video. The irony is thick with this one...

Appreciation Post!!

This weekend was such an incredible experience. I've never been to a convention that had such incredible cosplayers in such a high volume. I met so many wonderful people who inspire me to not only continue in this craft but to improve my own skill set.

I know I've said this a lot (and if you've seen my videos to know I mean A LOT), but my dreams are coming true because of everyone here on patreon. I could never have made it to this convention with out all of your support. This was honestl...

Last day at Katsu!

Sadly this is my last day here at katsu but I'm going out I style! <br><br>Today I've decided to be the other other Robin, Jason Todd!

Pew pew!

Teddy Flood reporting for duty and looking like a Cow derp!

I have never touched a gun in my life and I have no idea what I'm doing!

Hey Patreon, I'm at katsucon!

So as you may have know I've been planning on going to katsucon all year but sadly because of a huge storm I basically missed the first day. I'm not going to let it get to me though, I'm starting to unpack and I'm going to make the best of it! Today I'm dressing as Teddy Flood for a WestWorld group! Whoop!

Snow delay!

So there was a blizzard in my home town and my flight to katsucon was unfortunately canceled. Sadly I'll be missing the first day but I'm still excited to get two days in! I'll also be bringing a surprise cosplay...

Happy Valentines!

Kill me now!

This is the slowest process ever. And as you may be able tell from the picture glued on all the ab an chest pieces and had to rip them all back off! Woo!
