Stalin and Marion propaganda style posters

these were pretty old images from a few years back but they had a nice squareness to it. So I took these old drawings that were pretty much clean illustrator images and revisited them in photoshop to make them a bit more interesting.

Stalins says "Send me your money"


Marion Jones, "Drugs made me run faster."

Wishing Widget

This little character, when you catch it. You hold onto it make a wish, unzip him and pull your wish out.
-Mmmm..., i would like an iPhone, unzip him and BAM!!! instant iPhone.
Might make these into prints more on that later. I've done 3 versions but still unsure which ones I will do as prints. Feel free to comment on which you would make a nice print.

Had a little bit of Dr. Martin watercolor paints left over from a project I was working on and instead of putting the leftover back into the bottles (which could be messy) or dumping it I used it up on this quickie illustration

Ultraman vs Godzilla inked

here's the inked page of Ultraman vs Godzilla with all the changes done. Now I just need to color this bad boy

Ultraman vs Godzilla

This is a work in progress. here are the final pencils. Next I'll be inking then coloring it.
A few things I'll probably tighten up before I go to inking. Godzlla's face needs a bit of tweaking. the girl I need to resize her torso a bit to fit better with her legs and maybe resize her entire body afterwards to make her a bit bigger. She just seems a bit too small. Those are just minor things.:)

heres the pic
