Halloween: GOOD LORD! THE SPIDERS ARE LOOSE!

Here's a look at Leigh and my Halloween costumes this year. We were a pair of scientist being attacked by the giant spiders we were creating. This is the first time in a while we had the opportunity to get halloweened up. We went to a friend's party. it was decorated all Twin Peaks themed but Scientists fighting spiders is 100 times cooler than small town folk who really love coffee and pie and donuts. Also I had only ever seen 5 episodes of Twin Peaks before that party. Hey, at least we came in costume.

What's that on my shoulder?

Good Lord the Spiders are loose! And they're armed!

We're doomed! Also they've got a corrosive bite!

Halloween Fiends: 31, HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Happy Hallowe'en everyone! 

I hope you've enjoyed these creepy visitors, I know I've had fun drawing them.

This is the 31st and final Halloween fiend to appear here in 2012, but not the

last piece of art, nor the last monster! I'll be taking a break from drawing

today to watch ALL the Halloween movies (that aren't directed by Rob Zombie) to

celebrate this most holy of holidays! Make sure you kids eat all your candy or the

Pumpkin Mummy may pay you a visit! Beware the Pumpkin Mummy.

The day before Halloween is my little sister's birthday. She chose the monster for today, which is awesome because he's one of my favorite monsters too. So if you know my sis, wish her a happy birthday today. Happy Birthday sis!

E-Bike Spotters guide: Didn't make the cut.

If you happen to pick up the National Post this weekend there's an article about the different types of people you'll see riding e-scooters. Richard Johnson, Mike Faille and I designed a bunch of different characters for the graphic unfortunately not every character made the final image. Below find my favorites of the guys I drew who didn't end up in the final:

It happens sometimes. They were fun to draw and it was a nice change of pace from the usual stuff we do.

I really wish Lord Humongous ended up in the paper, would have been funny.

Who doesn't love art books full of zombie art?

I didn't draw this.

 Ok its now available! There's an artbook out dedicated to zombie art! I have art in it. There's a lot of great artists in it. Guys like, Gary Pullen, Bryan Baugh, Eric Pigors, David Hartman, Allan Graves and me.
Its full of stuff that looks like this!

I didn't do these either.

Here's a look at what I did for it. (It's bigger in the book.)

I went for an EC comic's kind of vibe with this.

Anyway its available at a whole bunch of different places like amazon and stuff like that.

Halloween Fiends: 12

Based on the Metaluna Mutant from This Island Earth, the Universal picture. The next couple of fiends will probably also be inspired by the Universal Monsters, just 'cus I dig 'em.
