Pig Mask Concept #1


Merry Xmas, here's the front view of a scary pig mask. It's for a production right here in the T-dot! Yay!

Still just the beginning stages of a concept, but I wanted to put it up. The idea was to create a sexual predator that looked like a giant pig. I chose to simply emphasize how a pig might look depraved or perverted, instead of say, giving him the hint of a messy haircut or whatever. I tried to do this by emphasizing wrinkles and texture and expression in the face, and didn't want to create a surreal or cartoonish pig creature at this stage, but I suppose that may or may not happen as the image develops with the director.

I'll be working on several things at once in the coming month, so stay tuned for an eclectic and senseless mix of images on the blog.

Cowboys and Vampires poster


I took my time on this poster for Olivier Merckx's Cowboys and Vampires, but here it is. I was inspired by old school genre posters, as well an 80s roster of Star Wars, Indian Jones, Captain EO, etc. posters -- my favorites.

I had so much fun on this poster. I basically wanted to do an image someone could look at for a while, with a lot of little details and 'things' to pick up on. It's something movies posters used to have that they seem to have lost.
