Hello, I'm Mark from northeast Nebraska. an Omaha native, I relocated to the LA area and jumped into the animation industry. My family and I moved back to Nebraska in 2001. In 2003 I bought myself a fairly low milage
1979 F250 Super Cab, 2 wheel drive. It served me well until someone with more need of it than I took position a few years back. Sadly, he was taken from this earth suddenly, in 2020... I have no idea what became of my
beloved old truck but plan to start seeking it out. I'll tell that old rigs story in a separate post.
Along with my career as animator, director of animation and, currently storyboard artist, I am an avid car and truck enthusiast. I have been drawing them ever since I could hold a pencil or crayon... My cartoon style is unique
and I hope you'll all indulge me if I share forum appropriate work now and then.

Here are photos of Big Blue when I grabbed it and how it lived out it's last few years with me as well as some sample of my sketchbook ramblings

Nice truck! Sorry to hear the truck is gone. Sounds like someone stole it, right?

Love the art! That's the most tough looking Bronco II I've ever seen!

Welcome aboard!

Thanks for the welcome. I had to sell the truck. Too many cars, extended work lay-off, gas prices through the roof = thirsty 400cid F250 finds a new home.
The owner passed in 2020 and I lost track of the old rig.

That's unfortunate. Maybe you'll see it around someday!
