"Martian Concept 1" - War of the Worlds sketch card for Cult Stuff

Since I have posted pretty much all of my bombshells cards, I figured I'd start posting the 2nd set of 20 cards that I did for cult stuff's War of The Worlds set, based on the novel by H.G. wells. I had a lot of fun with this set. I also decided to take limited progression scans of these 20.

I decided to play around with the concepts of the martians with this next batch. I felt that my previous martians came out a bit cute so I wanted to focus on making them a bit more menacing.
So here is the first one I came up with. you can see there were a lot of elements that I added that differ from the novel. Hope you like it.

2.5 x3.5 inches - copic markers.

All Hail The Mighty Cthulhu

"In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming"

What Can I say? H.P. Lovecraft was a literary genius & changed the course if sci-fi & horror as we know it today. Every time I read his works, I leave with a renewed sense of inspiration & wonder. This is my tribute shirt to him & the Cult of Cthulhu mythos. I hope you like it.

If you have never read Lovecraft before, READ IT! You can find a good quality hardback book of his short stories for 5-7$ at book stores

Demon Priestess

Done on 8.5x11 cardstock with markers.

Squid Boy!!!

Another Copic marker sketch, did all the skin tones with warm greys, tentacles were neutral greys & eyes cool greys. The background is kinda screwed, I was testing out copic's airbrushing system....works well for smooth background elements, only very light use, not very precise, but can give you the illusion of wide coverage on bigger pieces..anyway, this one was fun to do, I love the smooth gradation you can get with copics!

A Geek At Heart

Did this one for all the geeks. I wanted to do something bright, instead of my usual dark palette. Its a weird looking heart with arms, & tentacles bursting from the bottom & a giant eyeball bursting from the top. One hand is doing the live long & prosper symbol, while the other is holding a ray gun. he's got a Nintendo controller coming out from behind him & he's standing on a couple of comic books. Its kinda like a nerds version of a sacred heart. what this picture means to me is that no matter how old you get, or what your into, you can always be a geek at heart. 8x10 watercolor on watercolor paper.

Grakus

Another octopus like creature, multiple eyes & a beak, I call grakus. 8x10 in pencil.

Wasteland Cyborg

" Wasteland Cyborg" 8x10 marker & ink on paper. Made this weird humanoid looking creature. His skin is gray & muddled. H has a makeshift gas mask & a biomechanical arm with a retracting steel tentacle. The other arm is equipped with a makeshift claw glove .

My Green Hell

Here is a digital painting that I did in photoshop 7, for a skateboard design. I've included a close up pic so you can see a bit of the detail. If I could imagine some type of hell, then this would be a pretty nasty one to be in. It took a long time, used plenty of photo references. I,m not too good at digital painting & this is one of my first. let me know what you think.

Eyebot

A Cyborg alien shaped like a giant tentacled floating eyeball. As you can see it has a needle gun used for administering tranquilizers as a means to incapacitate its target. Following the injection the victim is wrapped up with the tentacles in preparation for transit. 8x10 marker & ink.

Flying Octopus Eyeball.....Thing

Here's a fun one I did in watercolor, & ink. I was inspired by those old D&D drawings of beholders & decided to do something similar. Post of what you think.

"Audiotrippin"
