FINALLY! Getting to post some cool stuff.
And what happened to those Post-Comic-Con follow ups I promised? BAH! Right out the window with those. I've been back for over a week and have been chained to my desk. Literally. Im pretty grateful for the scraps they slide under my door though. Actually there is some really really badical stuff in the works right now that I'm very lucky to be a part of. Delving back into my roots in animation...
OK. Onto this piece. This was done for my buddy Jake Forbes and his book Tokyopop’s Return to Labyrinth vol.4 which is hitting stores this month! Like the plug? No? Too bad.
He asked me to do a pin up for the magical and final 4th volume to his New York Time's best seller and I jumped like a foaming dog at the opportunity. I sort of wish I had more time however, this was only done in 2 days.
If I were to touch the surface of how much I love this movie, the design, the story, the visual fucking genius that is Brian Froud (who I TOTALLY got to meet at SDCC), David Bowie............. and his "Bowie Constricter" Yeah I said it. It would fill tomes.
Anyways that's all for now. I might post some comic pages to pass the time soon. Until then I apologize once more for the neglect and I am very grateful for all the new followers! THANK YOU!

One of the most unique and outstanding Labyrinth pieces I have ever seen. Labyrinth is my favorite movie of all time, and you captured so greatly the mystique and symbolism of the film. Great job\!

Trippy and AWESOME. It makes me wonder; what's with Sarah's blank stare? Has Jareth bewitched her truly? Is it a sign that this is all really just in her mind? Curious...

I like the composition on this one. The way you intergrated the characters and objects is pretty cool. You have a good combination of styles that comes out as your own too. The detail and the shading is freaking sweet. I also get the feeling that Sarah's hair loopy-decoations kinda look like wires, either to a computer or headphones, which in turn is connected to the Labyrinth, which is cool.
Great job, I really like it. ^_^

Really, really impressive bit of linework. The bits from the movie are really wonderfully interwoven throughout the entire piece, and the quality of the line use is delightful! I love the concept, and I love the execution, awesome work!

wow... O.O you've done an exquisite job. i ♥ how geometrical everything is. i've got a labyrinth poster on my wall, so i can totally see the likenesses to it (with the goblins, jareth's hand holding out the crystal ball, and the labyrinth coming out of sarah's hair).

That is amazing. I love their expressions- Jareth's smirk and Sarah's peached-out eyes. Wow.
