I'm a little late to the meme boat, but what the hell. Here's my influence map to anyone that cares.

1: www.entervoid.com – One of my biggest influences. EVER. Love the site and the people on it. Everyone is inspiring.

2: Hellboy/ mythology

3: Bowie/ glam rock/ Labyrinth/ fairy tales

4: Delta State/ my own dreams

5: webcomics/ particularly Riceboy

6: cartoon villainy/ cartoons in general

7: Sweet Transvestites from Transsexual, Transylvania - I love musicals also androgyny

8: Radiohead’s art and music

9: Mick Farren – someone I know had a lot of his books when I was younger. I read them all and I guess his rock influenced writing really stuck with me.

10: Clutch – Love their art as well as the stories told in their lyrics.

11: Frank Frazetta – not sure if you can tell from my art, but I used to draw his stuff from art books when he was a little kid. I had a thing for drawing scantly clad ladies back then lol.

12: Nine Inch Nails/other goth bands – their videos are creepy. I like to scare people too.

13: Tekkon Kinkreet. Stories about kids and fairy tales. Sad beginnings and happy endings.

14: Jhonen Vasquez. Read/ watched all of his shit when I was a kid. I don’t think you can tell his style rubbed off on me nowadays, but some of it definitely stuck.

15: X-Files – atmosphere/ story telling

16: Tool/ Bill Hicks (R.I.P.) – the art/ the message

17: forgot to put it up: sonic comics

If you're wondering why there are so few comic influences, it's because I didn't get into (reading) comics until a couple years ago. All I had to read were Sonic and Archie, but I made my own comics regardless.

I lived in the bush until then and didn't have any comic stores or internet for 4 hours in any direction. Thank god for nearby CD shops (only an hour away lol) and satellite TV.
