This is one idea for a Black Mau action figure. I kinda like it. He has an apocalyptic look to him. Tell me what you think?

I have gotten a few versions both on paper and in model form. This one I like the best so far. I just wanted to share this.

Being that this Black Mau story is such an indepth and elaborate story, my editor strongly suggested that “The Black Mau Chronicles: Origins of the Black Mau will be published first. I’m stoked and very happy that we’ve decided how this would be done.

The entire Origins story will be published here first for a limited time on 12.12.12. at midnight. More info is coming. Stay tuned!

There will be previews, contest and prizes given

throughout the year until the premier of

The Black Mau Chronicles and I.G.L.E.A.^R.E.

These are two different series but some of the

regulars in both series eventually. With the BMC

We will start from the very beginning and evolve

Into what new life will be like on the new planet

called “Rare Earth”. As one of the characters

Wilemeana Bast said… “To understand who they

are in the modern age, you must first understand

from where they came.”

Stay Tuned!

“Superman has a new suit”

Posted in animation, Comic Book Illustrators, graphic novels and Comics, I.G.L.E.A^R.E., Sci-Fi film, Science Fiction Writers & Authors, Speculative Fiction on September 2, 2011 by blog4tsotsm

Henry Cavill is sporting his new Superman suit for the upcoming Superman III Movie.

He got rid of the red  briefs
He got rid of the yellow belt, but the boots are still red. I personally love the new outfit.

Kate Beckinsale Returns in ‘Underworld:

By: Mike Bracken on
August 18, 2011 at 12:10PM Comments (69)

It’s been a few years since we had a new Underworld flick (the last
was Underworld: Rise of the Lycans – which was a prequel with Rhona Mitra
taking over for Kate
Beckinsale
), but apparently someone out there still likes these movies, so
here’s the first trailer for the latest installment, the imaginatively titled
Underworld:
Awakening
.

If you’ve seen one Underworld film, you’ve basically seen them all –
and this newest entry looks to continue that trend. All the important points are
covered: everything shot with a hazy blue filter? Check. Kate Beckinsale in a
skintight black bodysuit? Check. Gibberish about Death Dealers and Lycans? You
betcha. Crazy The Matrix-esque action scenes? It’s in there.

We couldn’t even begin to guess how this film will perform at the box-office,
but if you held a stake to our heart and forced us to offer a prediction, we’d
say it will have a decent opening weekend and then head immediately to DVD.
We’ll see if our crystal ball was right when Awakening hits theaters
next January. Until then, enjoy ogling Beckinsale in her painted on catsuit in
the trailer.

Ridley Scott to Produce and Direct New ‘Blade Runner’ Movie

By: Mike Bracken on
August 18, 2011 at 1:14PM Comments (12)

If sci-fi fans thought life couldn’t get any better when it was announced
that Ridley
Scott
would return to the Alien franchise with his new film Prometheus,
then today’s mega-news is something they’d better sit down to hear.

Scott, who’s apparently feeling a bit nostalgic lately, has committed to
producing and directing a new version of his film Blade
Runner
. The 1982 original, which featured Harrison Ford as a burnt out
Blade Runner tasked with tracking down escaped androids called Replicants, has
gone on to become a cult classic. Through the years, there’s been talk of a
sequel – but nothing’s come of it. We suspect that will change now that Scott is
involved.

Things are in the extremely early stages of development, which means there’s
no script or real story idea yet. No one knows if this will be a prequel, a
sequel, or some kind of remake or offshoot. Even if we did, that could easily
change – as is the case with Scott’s Prometheus, which began life as an
Alien prequel and is now being treated almost as an Alien
spinoff instead. That change occurred when writer Damon Lindelof met with
Scott and Fox brass and wowed them with his take on the material. The same thing
could happen with Blade Runner.

Without a script or story, it’s impossible to even guess if a new Blade
Runner
will feature the return of Harrison Ford’s Deckard or will move in a
new direction. Our personal hope is that Ford will return – it would be
interesting to see where Deckard’s at in his life – but perhaps Scott wants to
take the story down a different path.

One thing we can all but guarantee is that a new Blade Runner
directed by Ridley Scott will be visually breathtaking. The 1982 film is
memorable for a number of reasons (including having like 50 different cuts
floating around…), but the film’s unique look is certainly one of the first
things people think of when it’s mentioned. It’s exciting to imagine what Scott
could do with modern day technology.

While this new take Blade Runner is still lacking information about
a lot of key details, we can’t help but be excited about the prospect of Ridley
Scott coming back to explore this universe. Only time will tell if this film
ever moves into production and eventual release, but for now it’s exhilarating
just to know that there’s serious talk about returning to the world of the
original film.

What do you guys think? What do you want to see in a new Blade
Runner
? Share your thoughts with us in the comment section below.

New Music Project for Taj!

Posted in animation, Comic Book Illustrators, Fantasy Writers, graphic novels and Comics, I.G.L.E.A^R.E., Music Business, Recording Artist, Sci-Fi film, Science Fiction Writers & Authors, Speculative Fiction, Taj Sonchai's The Black Mau Chronicles on April 16, 2011 by blog4tsotsm

*Ohlum Locati!

I have the distinct privilege to play for two awesome singer/songwriters from the Dayton, Ohio area known as “Frozen Feet” www.frozenfeetmusic.com.  (Red Cup Records)

 Kristianna Dykes and Chelley Seibert make up this fantasic duo. We had a meeting last week to discuss recording and touring and the feasability of doing so. We’re gonna make it happen!

“Frozen Feet”

Kristianna Dykes and Chelley Seibert make up the band Frozen Feet. The captivating sound of Frozen Feet happens when Kristis acoustic guitar playing, powerful voice and heart felt lyrics are combined with Chelleys remarkable harmony arrangements and commanding percussion style. Performing as a duo or with guest musicians, these girls rock!! and are power packed with great entertainment for all audiences.

Frozen Feet has made several memorable appearances including opening for these headliner acts: *PAT BENATAR, *THE GUESS WHO, *AMERICA, *RARE EARTH,*THE VILLAGE PEOPLE, *BLOOD, SWEAT & TEARS * 1964 THE TRIBUTE * ALICE RIPLEY * VICKI SHAW * SISTER FUNK Frozen Feet has performed at countless venues including: * Madison Square Garden in NYC.

I will keep you posted on our progress. I just love being busy!

I just discovered a new and free software for authors and writers

Posted in animation, Comic Book Illustrators, Fantasy Writers, graphic novels and Comics, I.G.L.E.A^R.E., Sci-Fi film, Science Fiction Writers & Authors, Speculative Fiction, Taj Sonchai's The Black Mau Chronicles on March 4, 2011 by blog4tsotsm

This Writing software program is called “yWriter 5″ http://www.spacejock.com/yWriter5.html?yWriter5 Some of you may have heard of it. I recently discovered it and I love it! It was developed and created by this guy named Simon Haynes. Apparently he’s an author himself and he has a science fiction series called “Hal Space Jock ”  http://www.spacejock.com.au/  .

I hadn’t read any of the series just yet, but I’m kinda intrigued by Mr. Haynes and his amazing skills.  He’s a computer programmer turned author and he’s giving away his writing software for free. You are also urged to make a donation to his cause if you feel so ablieged, which I think is an honorable thing to do.

What this software has done for me is help me get to know my characters better, it helped me to break down the big picture of my ideas, my cocepts and refine them to help the reader follow the story better. I’ve  always said that writing a book for me is like playing out a movie in my head and writing it down so the reader can share the ride with me. This software program will help you do just that.  AMAZING!  KUDOS Mr. Haynes!           

 

Music is Another Passion of Mine

Ohlum Locati~

I just purchased a $4,000. five string Elrick NJS bass guitar. I was a musician before I became a writer. I’m itching to get back on the road and tour with someone. I purchase a Galllien  Krueger Backline 600 amplifier and a GK Backline 410 BLX-II cabinet. I also have a Crate BX150 for rehearsals. I’m ready to get back out there and perform with a band again. 

I love to perform Rock, Pop and Funk music. I love to listen to Jazz, Classical and R&B. Music is my passion as well as writing.

As far as where I’m at with BMC. I’m still working out the war segment. This is more complex than what I expected. But this segment has to be the very best that I can make it. I can’t slight this book in the least. I have to make it the very best that I can make it!

I hope to develop a fan base. I have taken measures to build my media support outlet and I’m about to relocate. I’ll tell you about that later.

Locati Ohlum!
