Zombies...again

I started a sketchbook drawing while watching The Walking Dead...then I spent way too long working on it. Now it's a finished piece I guess! I think I'm done with zombies forever.

Legends of Slap

Got a chance to do a game called Legends of Slap. It was a really quick turnaround—I did the UI in about a week. I designed the UI, app icon, logo, and the blocks. I didn't design the map, characters, battle backgrounds, or the badges (not shown here). It's in beta and for Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.gree.slapslap&hl=en. There will be some more changes coming out soon, so check it out!

Dapper Cadaver Tee

3 color tee for Dapper Cadaver. They are available for purchase here. Really fun project for an amazingly unique company. I don't accept much illustration work these days, but when the owner asked me to do this one, my mind ran wild with all the possibilities. Obviously I had to do it. The client was madly in love with my Killing Death painting, so basically this was his concept for the shirt. It worked out well.

Fancy Octopus 2

I made this on my iPad with Procreate and the Adonit Jot Touch 4 stylus. At this point in my life I don't have a lot of free time to paint, or a studio area to paint in, but working this way is pretty satisfying and I am happy with the results. The wet brush feels much like oil painting—it's easy to get lost in the blending. It creates some nice soft edges that I never got with acrylic. I can't work on the computer when I get home. Because I'm on the computer all day at work, at home I need to switch it up or I feel sore and stressed, like I'm working a 15 hour day or something.

Lady's Foot Cream

I just let my mind wander on this, which I find very fun and rewarding. I can't stomach making art unless it comes from a place of pure ridiculousness and exploration. I have no interest in being profound or high-concept. This was a random sketch that I took to a way higher level of polish than it deserved, but it made me laugh, and that's worthwhile to me.

Well, obviously I haven't posted in a while! I've fallen into the void that is the video game industry, so naturally nobody sees what I've been doing till 2 years later. Also, I'm expecting in July, so I had to make a baby shower invitation. I like it a lot, but looking at it I can't help but think: "I used to do nothing but record covers for punk and metal bands!?" It blows my mind how things have changed...and how much I've taken to working in vector.

Distillation show

I am going to be in a show at Phidias Gold. Haven't been accepting a lot of shows for the past year, but I took this one because it sounded fun, and the line-up is killer! I took 360° photos that I want to make into an animated gif or something, so that will be up later.
