Evenin' all.

I'm here largely because Enayla pointed me this way. Thanks a bunch! Lots of cool art and advice running rampant around here. =)

I guess the appropriate thing to would be show a few pictures, so here we go. This first one is my newest and bluest, so new I finished it about an hour or so ago. This is only the second full picture I've done with my relatively new Wacom Intuos. Damn, I love this thing. =D

And here is what is probably my favourite pic to date, as it represents the largest progress leap between pictures, although I did take a five month break before doing it... It's about the third last one I did with my mouse, prior to the acquisition of the Wacom Wonder.

As you've most likely gathered by now, I have an evasive relationship with backgrounds, and anatomy is optional. But hey, I'm here to learn, right?

Well, that's about it for now. I'm as eager to comment as I am to receive criticism, so, I guess I'll see you later.

Welcome!

I love those pics! Great detail in them. Backgrounds are hard to do (I avoid them as much as possible myself, hehe

) so don't worry about it

That werewolf has hairy armpits

Looks great! I'll look forward to seeing more of your stuff.

Welcome!

You already know I love both those pictures. You have such a wonderfully... gory... style! I'm surprised the werewolf's claws aren't dripping with blood

Yeah, the Armpits rather dominate the picture, don't they? As I'm still getting to grips with my Wacom, hair sprouting in all directions from every available surface seemed the way to go.

You and me both!

But, no, I suddenly decided I don't want to be a one trick pony. One step at a time, eh?

Of course, that isn't to say I'll never do the red and sticky again... you've seen my Loki pictures. I just have so much fun with that stuff.

I really like your work

Especially the second pic. Hope to see more of it soon

Just one question tho..
In the "Infection" pic.. Is the subject an hemaphrodite? (sp?)

Could well be. I can't draw a pretty woman to save my life.

Not that I was trying to, or anything. My current excuse is that they all start to look the same when a certain degree of decay has set in. Of course, that's just an excuse...
