Wendigo Psychosis


The gf was talking ‘bout Wendigos yesterday. She’s revisiting Pet Sematary (the book) after I kept watching the movie adaption over and over again sometime last week.

So yeah, I got around to drawing one this afternoon. Love drawing big creatures and creepy things. Especially malevolent cannibalistic creatures.

Created using UNI POSCA pens, indian ink, pen and white card whilst listening to Fang Island’s self-titled debut. Seriously, check that album out. It’s incredible.

PS - you can view a larger version of the pic over on my flickr.


PPS - I've set up a new, cleaner-looking blog over on tumblr should you swing that way. I'll try to upload to all of them, so don't worry too much if you love blogspot hard or whatever.

chuffed

Forgot to mention that my art was retweeted by Andy from Fuck Buttons last night. I can die a happy man.

ugly mutha

I was looking for a reference pic and couldn't be fucked finding the dvd so turned to youtube and captured a still from the scene but it had spanish subs. Thought I'd use 'em instead.

moleskines & misery



It's been an odd few days. It looks like I've lost my job, which is filling me with dread but oddly enough I feel kinda liberated too. Think I'll use this as an opportunity to try selling some art and set up that website. So, scary but also exciting times.

And on the art front (sorry it's been so long) I'm taking part in rllmuk's sketchbook exchange, part 2. Theme for my book this year is 'creatures and calamities'.

can't draw. playing...


I haven't done anything for days. And it's all the fault of Red Dead Redemption. God damn you, vidya games! The timesink I thought I was doing well to avoid. Ah well, mustn't waste anymore time. Gotta get back to Mexico.

a wasted day?



So, Hayley Williams of Paramore accidentally uploaded a photo of herself to her twitter. Or 'got hacked' if you want to believe. Yes, it's vulgar. Yes, I'm sad. But a bored man draws what a bored man does.

He came He saw



This will be a page in my upcoming art book I'm working on. There's no real underlying theme per se. Not yet anyway.

Beard Strip


Just a little mess around here, coming up with a loose background for the robotic Beard Collector. Pages were huge so I had to scan bits at a time, so you get to see some of my woeful cut and paste jobs in photoshop. Urrrgh.

in action


Did this drawing of the Beard Collector for Matt Stenning of The Beard Collector early this morning. It was meant to be a little surprise joke and I was gonna stick it on his car but by the time I'd finished they were leaving so I had to hand it him in person.

The Woods


Inspired by the poem Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Robert Frost.

plight of the feathered serpent


The posca pens I ordered finally turned up today. My god, are they wonderful. Did a little drawing I've had in my head for a few weeks, but I wanted to wait for the pens before I started. Came out ok, if a bit... minimal. Sorry about the awful photo. I totally suck at photography.

military t-rex


I asked for ideas today and a friend suggested this. Kinda.

Help Me Be Human


Wanted to do a brundlefly sketch for a while. Not that happy with it tbh. Oh well, eh?

Eat Meat



I'm aware I missed a day yestersay but, realistically, I'll never be able to draw everyday. So with that in mind I tried to spend a bit more time on something today. It turned out alright. Again, too big to scan. Shame really 'cause the blacks look a lot better IRL.

lookin' bleak


Crappy pic is crap. I need to buy some new pens. Getting bored of a fat marker.

ghostin'


A quick idea that I wanted to get outta my head before I went to bed and forgot about it.

Zombie Mario



After a failed canvas earlier I didn't have the drive to draw much else so I did this little ink drawing. I nearly had Mario eating Yoshi's brains but I couldn't bring myself to draw it.

Traditional Values



Have you ever seen that most awesome of films, They Live? In it Roddy Piper's down and out drifter finds a box of discarded sunglasses in a back alley and through these glasses he can see, well, what's beneath the surface. The societal elite are in fact a group of aliens subliminally controlling the human populace through the media in various formats. I've been watching an awful lot of the election broadcast these past 24 hours...

The Beard Collector

There's an interesting little collective known by the title of this piece around here. And I love the imagery I get from that title. A literal collector of beards. Viciously tearing them off faces. Or something. I think maybe he can't grow his own and so harbours great pains and resentment.
Anyway, I didn't intend for him to come out so... Darth Vader. It just kinda happened.

the collector


This thing is pretty large, so I'm sorry about the crappy photo. Wouldn't fit in my scanner.

La Fin Absolue du Monde

Today it's Udo Kier from John Carpenter's Cigarette Burns. Very cool little film, kinda creepy, just like Udo.
