Calabrese Fans dig my art alot!

So as you know probably know I've done a bunch of art for the band Calabrese I always have fun doing stuff for them and they seem to dig what I do. It looks like their fans dig it even more here's a bunch of tattoos people have gotten based on art I've done for Calabrese. Its always a little strange finding out people have things you've designed permanently emblazoned on their bodies. If you or anyone you know has any tat's based on something I've drawn be it Calabrese related or not let me know I'd like to see it.






Topless version was bound to happen I guess. 




The Bride of Calabrese seems to be the most popular. Anyway, here's some of the original art that these were based on. 
I wish this was a t-shirt, exactly like this except maybe the bat shape was glow in the dark. It was originally part of their business card. Its available as a patch in their store too.

This was under the CD tray on their first album.

Fancy glow in the dark t-shirt. The only one I've seen people wearing up here in Canada

The Famous Bride of Calabrese. I've made sure she's shown up on most of the things I've done for the band. 

You know, I'm not sure what this was done for. I still think its cool.
Oh, and I know I said if you have Calabrese tattoos I want to see them, but if you or anyone you know has a tattoo based on any of my art I wanna know about it. Make sure you swing by Calabrese's store and buy some of their stuff its all high quality and will make you look even more awesome.

The Bride of Calabrese listens to scary music.


You might have noticed I threw the pencils for this up yesterday. Well now its finished. I created this character for the band Calabrese as a kind of mascot for them way back when they asked me to do some art for their first big album: 13 Halloweens. Since that time I've had a pretty good time working with them on various projects and she's appeared in some form or another in the artwork for all the albums I've worked on for them.  Those are the covers for all of the Calabrese albums, I helped out on three of them.

Midnight Spook Show: I did nothing.
13 Halloweens: I did the cover art and a bunch of interior things. The Bride of Calabrese's first appearance, she's on the credit panel of the CD.
Travelling Vampire Show: I did some layout stuff on the cover and back cover, did a big centre spread of the vampire show on the inside (the bride is really small dancing in the front of the girly tent with some other freaks) and I did some artwork for the CD itself. Cover art was by one of my favorite artists Tom Bagley
Calabrese III: They Call us Death: I designed the title lettering and did some interior art and back cover art. Front cover was by another artist I admire, Eric Powell. The Bride is once again on the credit panel holding an axe and hanging out with the severed heads of the Brothers Calabrese.

The other Calabrese cover you see there is from their first comic appearance. Once again I helped out with some layout duties on the front cover. The Bride again appears on the inside credit page in a tribute to Frazetta and the inside back cover in a small role in a tribute to those sand getting kicked in your face ads you used to see in comics. She's fun to draw and I hope I get around to drawing her again.
That's your history lesson for today, I figure you didn't bother reading all this but I hope you enjoyed the picture.

More art?

Along time ago I created this little mascot character for the band Calabrese. I felt like doing a new pin-up of her. This here's the rough pencil version of it. I'll try and post a full color version of it when I finish it. I've got a few other drawings on the go. I'll post them at some point. might hold off on showing them until I've figured out what I'm going to do for Fan Expo this year. I've tried to book a table don't know when I'll know if I've got one. News regarding my going to Fan Expo will be found here when I know what's going on. Until then enjoy the drawing.
