Day 4

           Here's day four. The full color version is what made it to Facebook. Prints of any of these can be had, just get in touch with me. My Wolfman action figure served as the model for the zombie.

Scherzhaftes Bild

          I originally wrote a lengthy description for this post explaining just how much I detest hitler, but I don't think that begs any elaboration. Everybody but total dicks know hitler as a total dick. For those of us who don't sprech Deutsch, you are probably familiar with hitler's great manifesto on whininess and zealous bigotry, Mein Kampf. Kampf, as many know, is the German noun for "struggle", or "fight". With the simple addition of an "r", however, we get "Krampf", German for "cramp". Looks like 'ole Onkel Adi shouldn't have gone swimming so soon after eating that big bowl of dumb.  

Day 3 of the Halloween thing I'm doing on Facebook

         So, I wasn't really planning on doing a horror drawing every day in October until I posted the Headless Horseman sketch on the first and my brother asked if I was. I don't really want to create pages of blog posts based on 31 days of single drawings, especially since I won't have time every day to pound out a lot beyond quick monster doodles. That being said, if I do something especially cool or fun, I'll put it up here. In this case, I did a quick color version of the Karloff drawing above, so I thought I'd post it. Check my Facebook page for drawings every day, or keep yer eyes on the Pad for the greatest hits. Keep creepin! 

So it Begins...

Happy October 1st! Only 30 days left 'til HALLOWEEN!

A Bunch of Recent Sketches

These are just pages out of my sketchbook, all done roughly in the month of September. The monsters are all concepts for Ghouls-in-the-Dark, though not all will become such. The top image shows my slowly developing understanding of coloring in photoshop. I finally figured out how to even make a layer, so it's still a little primitive. 

P.S. After looking this post over, I feel it is necessary to mention that I'm very much against violence in the real world.

GHOUL-IN-THE-DARK MONSTERS for sale!

Charge 'em up...

Behold the Terror!

I've had these sheets of glow in the dark plastic for years, but had forgotten about them until cleaning out the attic this summer. I've been working on some monster drawings to paint on them, and I've got a handful ready. Now you can have your own Ghoul-in-the-Dark Monster for only $9.99! (Turn the numbers over to reveal a spooky surprise!) I'm going to cut several more panels out this week, so there should be a large batch ready soon. Wolfman, Screaming Skull, Dracula, Zombie, Mummy plus who knows how many more! Painted with durable, incredibly vivid Sign Painters' 1shot enamel, these babies are guaranteed to outlive their owners(perhaps through mysterious circumstances)! Just in time for Halloween, get yours today!

Pinstriping Rates!

I found this piece of orange painted metal at the DI the other day with Ang, so I picked it up for 75 cents to get a little sign practice. It's roughly 30"x 8". The brush I used for most of it is still pretty new, and I think it's working out pretty well. Now you all know my rates!
