Dadkin (or Transition from 2009 to 2010, Cinekin style!)

January 7th, 2010 by Victor · No Comments · Cinekin Artwork

I was looking back over some older artwork and I found this little guy. I don’t remember what I drew him for and I don’t think I ever colored him. I think I tucked him away and then completely forgot about him.  In the spirit of Auld Lang Syne, here he is, brought back from [...]

Autumn!!

November 6th, 2009 by Victor · No Comments · Cinekin Artwork

Here in Chicago, the days are getting shorter and the weather is getting colder as we move towards the holiday season. It’s prime time for romance as we look to that someone special to keep us warm and secure. Personally, I love this time of year. I come from tropic country and I have fond [...]

Zombies!!!

October 23rd, 2009 by Victor · 1 Comment · Cinekin Artwork

Everyone loves zombies!  I don’t know exactly what it is about them that appeals to us so much.  But, considering how many movies are made involving the living dead, and the fact that several US cities are victim to organized zombie walkabouts and pubcrawls (of which I have yet to participate in myself), I think [...]

‘Movie-Gorged’

October 16th, 2009 by Victor · No Comments · Cinekin Artwork

When I was probably to young and too sheltered to understand it, a friend of mine introduced me to the Kubrick masterpiece and cult jewel, ‘A Clockwork Orange’ . As those of you who have seen it and/or read the novel of the same name upon which it was based might guess, it had – [...]

Matchmaking by Cinekin is like looking through a crystal ball — a crystal ball of science!

October 2nd, 2009 by Victor · No Comments · Cinekin Artwork, Matchmaking by Cinekin

This is GypsyKin. She sort of embodies how I perceive Cinekin: fantastic creatures that, when approached with proper decorum (password and movie ratings), can reveal arcane insights and wisdom (recommendations and matches) by magical means (our patented algorithm). She was obviously inspired by the fortune-telling novelty machines that you used to be able to find [...]

A Kin for All Seasons

August 17th, 2009 by Victor · No Comments · Cinekin Artwork

Here is Polokin. What does polo have to do with movies? Who knows. Maybe in the UK there are a lot of polo-themed sports/coming-of-age films. I really wouldn’t know. But we do have shameless plans for this guy that I’m sure you’ll all see soon enough

Dunwich Horror? No. Just Cinekin. …or is it?

August 13th, 2009 by Victor · 1 Comment · Cinekin Artwork

A ‘kin for cult movies.  Or in the case of this little guy, cult horror movies in particular. Some of my favorites are The Wicker Man, Lair of the White Worm, and Ravenous. A number of us in the Cinekin Team are Lovecraft fans. There’s just something about the lurking, ever-present horror that hovers just [...]

The Nature of Art

August 11th, 2009 by Victor · No Comments · Cinekin Artwork

One of the things that I love about the Cinekin is that they are so versatile and adaptable. Like little versions of people, or perhaps for me more like action figures, I can dress them up and pose them in all sorts of ways to express all sorts of things. They are infinitely better than [...]
