I told myself it could be my only chance to write Godzilla so I HAD to put Anguirus in there. Why not as set up for our meet cute?

Announcing my “Cats and Crescent Moons” bundle print sale! Two square prints at 25% off, for a limited time. The titles in this bundle are “Mise en Scène pour la Nuit” + “Within a Galaxy of Leaves”. #CatArt #bsnm #Cats #HolidayGifts #GiftForReaders #ArtSale
www.etsy.com/shop/TheArtOfRobHusberg

A mysterious night scene with a black cat, crescent moon, and glowing lamppost. The title is "Mise en Scène pour la Nuit". The stage has been set for the night's events. The characters involved have assembled. (Yes, I consider the crescent moon, park bench, trimmed hedge, and the lamppost all as players in my 'production'.) What might transpire tonight in this hidden, lonely corner of the old park? Are they waiting for another, as-yet-unseen participant to join them?

In a clearing, a noble white cat sits mesmerized by the open volume at her feet. Is it a favorite book revisited, or something new? She reads by the generous light of the crescent moon, which has kindly lowered itself from the night sky to provide illumination. The scene is framed by swaying grasses in the foreground and a mysterious white column.
Behind her is a curtain of flowing, swirling leaves, forming constellations of churning galaxies à la van Gogh. Below the leaves, in the background, a shadowy figure lurks.
Is all this actually happening, or is it the dreamlike imagining of the cat as she reads her book?

really phenomenal stuff, makes me think a little of the work of Stanislaw Szukalski, very similar use of lurid, solid rendering with stone and steel and an almost dream-like feeling.

Unsurprisingly Szukalski was a sculptor as well. You can tell with again, how solid his work feels

Szukalski's Grave of the unknown soldier, 1971

Szukalski's The Lowing Ox for Wolin, 1952

Boris Artzybasheff, a Ukrainian illustrator who immigrated to the US in 1919, was known for florid, grotesque explorations of surrealistic anthropomorphism, combining human and machine into fearsome, laboring hulks of metal & flesh.

These illustrations are from “Machinalia.”

#historyofillustration

A massive anthropomorphized sheet metal press, forcing steel into shape under enormous, wrought hands

A white-hot metal billet being picked up by a hook-billed lift with threatening eyes. The covers for the heat sinks are flat, impassive salamanders with distorted, contented, human faces.

A huge, horse-like bucket with a rolling human eye and scowling mouth offloads sparking hot molten metal into a mold in a long line of other molds, all of which have cartoonish human faces and human feet. They appear afraid and pained in anticipation, and the mold being poured into cries out

Molten metal being poured down a human-shaped funnel’s back into a furnace with a gaping mouth human and staring eyes. The bucket pouring the metal is devised like a smiling man’s head, with hands gripping and twisting its ears to let the molten cargo pour down its nose.

New Episode: Locked Library Mystery

There has been an impossible murder in a locked room! Also, more importantly, it's the big Turkey Day sale at Ralph's.

Listen here: buff.ly/crkZGJT

Illustration by @angrycomics.bsky.social. Want it as a print? Buy it here: buff.ly/BOIU2tg

A variegated background of light blue at the top fading into a very light peach at the bottom. A Big sun is at the top, with a blue halo behind it extending to almost the tips of the rays. White and pink fabric, like scarves are billowing up away from the circle. Below it a black star-studded blob in the vague shape of a body extends down the illustration. From the shoulder area pink veins extend and swirl down to two blue hands. The veins extend through the hands.

A classic.

#webcomics #indiecomics

Camera photo of two WIP comic panels. The first one is a guy closing the door the a bathroom while another person is starting to pull off their shirt in the foreground. The guy closing the door saying "It ain't like yuh got nothin I hadn't seen bufore, anyway." The second panel is a closeup of his face, his head turned towards the person undressing. He has an alarmed, upset expression.

Now that it's a new day, I probably should be embarrassed by my bad handlettering, but I prefer the look of it over digital text. It fits better with the janky visuals imo.

i struggle with a brain that wants to stiffly copy whatever reference i'm using and one thing i've found helpful:
1. draw big blocky shapes over the reference
2. turn off ref and redraw big blocky shapes
3. draw in figure with big blocky shapes overlaid
Traducir post

photo of model posing as an elegant elf woman that ive blocked out with a chunky red brush

in a separate window ive redrawn the red blocks, then have drawn details over the red blocks, using the photo+red transparency as reference
