Warm up drawings - trying to get motivated back to the things I need to get done for conventions.  

Also killed the last of my regular wacom nib stock, so strange using the standard nib again.

Your reality, sir, is lies and balderdash and I’m delighted to say that I have no grasp of it whatsoever. 

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen illustrated by Aurélie Neyret :: via ecartez-vous-jarrive.blogspot.ca

One of my favorite movies ever is the Terry Gilliam Baron Munchausen. This picture is adorable. 

A break from ponies - some voodoo people. 

One is return of Robear the voodoo man. The other is an associate of his who as far as I can tell is a medium. She has no name or purpose yet.

This setting just recently sprang back to mind and is trying to become A Story.  Not sure where this is going to go or where these guys are going to go.

Fan Art: An Explosion Of Creativity

The fan art community is one of the most creative and active online. Taking pop culture stories and icons as its starting point, the fan community extends those characters into new adventures, unexpected relationships, bizarre remixes, and even as the source material for beautiful art. Limited only by the imagination of the artist, the fan art world is full of surprises and brilliance.

So PBS did a short documentary about fan art - briefly mentioning the slash fandom and the meme faces. 

IS THIS REAL LIFE?

Reblogging for personal reference - I have something I was trying to figure out a border for…and this might actually help. 

Also cause - its pretty cool looking.

Finally got something large finished for the first time in what feels like eternity. Feels so good, I should do this more often.  

Been kicking this around for a couple of weeks. Was originally a concept for a convention t-shirt (they wanted something Dr Strangelove-ish with some Fallout thrown in) but they went with someone else. By then I was already attached so this got the full color workout. 

Feel free to point and laugh at my bad lettering job on the Russian there. From my vague understanding - the word on the bomb is in fact the sound of a bomb exploding or alternatively the sound of something heavy falling and breaking. The bit on the tail is a bad translation of my studio name. I think roughly translated it means “foolish dead(ly).” 

I hope to get more stuff off of the “work in progress” pile soon, but I gotta wrap up some commission stuff before I can make major progress on that front.

Michael Kutsche - John Carter

Just reblogging this to say I LIKED John Carter (of Mars)  it was a nice fun adventure sci-fi flick. I have no idea why critics didn’t like it or what went wrong with the marketing but seriously. Go see this thing if you are into pulp sci fi stuff. 

Also I really did love the creature design work on this film.

Ladies and Gentlemen - allow me to present to you the artist I wanted to be when I was 15. 

Still not sure I haven’t gotten over that idea

Now I have no idea where exactly I was going with these. 

Shit…

Well I drew this, and I have no idea why.
