Amazing art, I love Link's fish eyed stare. So creepy! Really fits the motifs and atmosphere of the game, with Link burying himself in mask after mask until you're not sure if there really is a Link under it all anymore

October Month Day 20 watch: Smiling friends season 3 episode 3 Mole Man

The funniest episode of the series thus far. Mole Man was an incredible character and had me made absolutely choking on laughter. Great B plot too with the terrifying triplets. Oddly wholesome ending too! Great ep all around

It's been a rough while, but amazing how things are trending upward. So many projects on the plate. Tons of commissions to clear first. Here's a Spider-Man, Black Cat commission in pen and ink.

Black Costume Spider-man and Black Cat. He is swinging from the top left of the image on a web thread and she is clinging to him with her arm around his neck. Both face the viewer.

GREEN ANGEL TOWER (1993)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 27” x 36”

The cover art for the final installment of Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn, a terrific fantasy series by Tad Williams. The book spent five weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list and changed the landscape of publishing. 1/6

A contrast of two worlds set atop a tower spire. The left is elegantly detailed with elvish artistry while the right looks crumbled and weathered. Drifting from the background left to right, smoke rises off onion domes of the city. As it crosses the spire, the smoke transforms to cloud cover. An elvish male stares off in the distance with his white cloak partially wrapping his arm and his spear pointed down over his knee. There is a green metallic sheen to his leg armor. He holds an ornate shield, pearlescent green at the edges and white at the center, decorated with glyphs bound in a pink circle. Kneeling next to him is an elvish female wearing a pink and purple cloak. Holding a slender sword in one hand, she grips the thin railing that sits low over architectural detail, broad white leaves. On the other side of the spire, a human female glances haughtily at the audience with a bow held out, braced on her hip. Kneeling next to her, a blonde bearded male with a snowy lock glances over. He rests his sword back on his shoulder while holding a simple wooden shield in his offhand. His pants are torn; her cloak is tattered. Their side of the tower is made of crude snow covered stone, underlining a different reality.

I think this is why Hollow Knight and Hades franchises are so good, they're definitely taking inspiration from nostalgic things but making them their own and come off as fully original

The Invisible Man (1933 Film) small gray sketch. Our dog just had a $1500 lumpectomy so I wouldn’t mind getting a couple more of these $50 sketch orders. (plus $10 shipping)

Looks so sick! Your colors are always so bold and striking. Love the maniacal grin and him raising his gun to blast away

今年は趣味絵全然描けていないけどスーパーメカゴジラ描ききったからいいのだ。曲線で構成されたデザインが好きすぎるんです。後ろの煙描くの楽しかったなぁ。BLOOD THE LAST VAMPIREの磯さんの爆炎エフェクトが好きで思い出しながら描いた。
