I love the death guy. Reminds me of this old Nes game shadowgate.

THANK YOU! Honestly, thank you!
I didn't want to say too much what kind of things I was inspired by when painting this set.
Had the music as ou start the game playing on repeat in my mind when paiting it.

REALLY want to do some old fashioned, silver age style paintings, like the death in the top right.

haha, Looks like I'm going to have a little spare time soon, so hopefully I can.
I need to start preparing for a B-movie show that I'm putting together soon too.

Thanks, it's all a little frantic, because they should be seperate pieces, but I dread the deviantart submit function, so went with an image I used on my blog.

Top right is probably my favourite because it's heavily inspired by the unnecessary, morbid and OTT shading of E.C comics.

I love this so much; it's not even funny. Your art is spectacular. The bold lines and stark colors are very distinct and awesome. These figures are so interesting to look at... The only think I think you could have done would have been to choose a color pallet which would coincided with each of the four figures; the greens on the top two don't mix as well as those on the bottom. I still love this, though. It's so unique and aesthetic.

Thanks! Glad you like them.
Yeah, piecing these together, I could have edited them in photoshop for a closer colour, but I'm lazy, I just put the individual pieces together to save uploading 4 times.
I was painting them all at different times, so the greens are all slightly different. I'm a big fan of the lime green in the 'bug eyes' painting the most.

You're welcome. It's kind of one of those things where you can either do them all different colors, or the same (or so I should think). It's cool though, I still really like your works. They're really unique.
