Dog Abomination II

So this month I'm illustrating the sequel to a book I did a while back about a pug with one eye. In this book, the lonely pug befriends another dog who's missing a leg. So of course once again I had to do an alternate version of the character to exploit in graphic detail the gruesome possibilities. I give you Jojo, the second dog abomination.

Zeyla! Mistress of a Thousand Worlds

So I finished this piece months ago and completely forgot to ever post it here. A dummy am I. I think it may be my favorite of the pulp posters so far. However, it was such a vicious mother to get done I had to step back from the series for a bit. I'm just now getting back in the mood to tackle the next in the series (for which I already have a sketch and color test done) but with the holiday hoopla about to hit, combined with an insane work schedule, I figure my life would be a lot easier if I spent any meager minutes of free time I can get to yule the tide and chug the nog (both of which sound much more disgusting than I intended). However, there are some illustrations I did last month for a Christmas book that I'm super happy about, and will try to post them in the coming weeks.

Halloweenie

It's about that time of year! For those of you who don't know, I love Halloween. I love watching scary movies, dousing myself with fake blood, the costumes, the haunted houses, pretty much everything but the candy corn (which is an unholy concoction comprised of melted sugar and Bigfoot piss developed for the express purpose of making children cry). For this reason, I try to spread the Halloweenishness throughout the whole month of October rather than blow it all in one night and hold my annual costumed pumpkin carving party the weekend before Halloween. Below I've posted the flier art for last year's (the Headless Horseman) and this year's (the Flying Monkey) parties. Have a Happy Halloween!

Go With The Flow

So here's a piece I did last month to christen the new paint job in my bathroom. The brain surgeons who owned my house before me painted the bathroom poop brown, which made it a rather unpleasant place for household visitors to make deposits in. It's now an almost-white teal color and I figured a nautical image would be appropriate. But the last thing I wanted were some pastel hippy porpoises or a coral reef. I mean, this is my house, not a timeshare condo in the keys. So here's what I ended up with.

Gunnar the Merciless

Well, it's been quite a while since I've posted something legitimate, but it's not for a lack of work, I can tell ya. I've been meaning to get this bad boy up since the beginning of June but I just didn't want to take the time to do a write-up for it. Anyhow, this is based on an image of myself and I promise you my muscles are that big. In fact, it's a wonder I can draw at all what with all the superfluous muscle mass bulking up my magnificent upper body. I did a lot of Conan the Barbarian research for this piece and was struck with a realization. Although I was attempting humor with over-the-top violence, the truth is that the authentic Conan paintings are themselves so over-the-top, it's hard to out-do them. I mean, how do you parody something that practically does the job for you in the first place? In the end I think it's the tagline that's the saving grace of this piece. I'm most of the way done with the next painting in the pulp series, which had to be put on the back burner due to another digital painting I had to rush out first. Hopefully I'll be able to get both of those posted soon. Until then, enjoy the gratuitous savagery of Gunnar the Merciless.

Your own...Personal...Jesus

I've been meaning to post new work for over a month now, but have been enjoying the summer far to much to be bothered. I've completed work on my latest pulp poster and begun work on a new one, but I'm saving those for just a little bit longer so I can share with you this character design I did for one of my books this month.

Wanna Piece a' Me?!

I got ahead in work this week and just didn't have the energy to start a new book today. So I instead used my time to construct the following poster. I think it was time well-spent, honestly.
