This was a pleasant surprise.\u00a0 Nick is a longtime reader of The FAT Website<\/em> and a guy who I haven’t seen in over ten years.\u00a0 I first got to know him when he lived in the same neighbourhood as my childhood friends the Priest brothers in Brunei.\u00a0 I remember him being a skinny kid wearing the basketball tops of some terrible NBA side (I want to say the Hornets or the Magic) and generally being a good natured kid.\u00a0 Whenever he comments on this site, I pretty much visualize him as being the same teenage kid from 1995.<\/p>\n

Nick Boyd - looks like the kind of guy who would be cast in a cop show as a character called Jack Carver<\/p><\/div>\n

I highly recommend checking out his website<\/a> to see his full range of artwork.\u00a0 And if you’re a New Zealand based TFW<\/em> reader, get along to one of his galleries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
