I rewatched that uncanny valley imagemovers mo-cap Beowulf movie and was surprised how much I liked the script treatment on a watch through. It was respectful to its source material but had a solid three act structure. I wonder who adapted thi- NEIL GAIMAN?? FUCK

These illustrations are from La bĂȘte mahousse (1954).
I really love the limited palette in these.

Real talk. I love a buff werewolf as much as the next horror girlie, but I would give many things for a fat werewolf that looks and sounds like an overweight, elderly dog. Picture it.

Dreamt about people who had been reincarnated trying to remember past lives. The worst was a WW2 soldier who was part of a unit in Italy. They captured this winemaker and his son. The soldier challenged the father to a drinking contest for his sons life but when the dad won he shot them both anyway.

Workflow I usually don't sketch with pencil but use white or a darker color to go in with the linework adding and subtracting from it with the basecoat color until the drawing is where I want it. It's so much easier then erasing or trying to trace from a sketch

I usually do a quick coat of primer and a solid coat of acrylic paint by brush so I'm working on color and not on wood/canvas. It helps alot! I can't say enough good things about tooli-art pens because of the VAST amount of color choices. They also have these themed boxes I adore

I use traditional media and have switched between all sorts of things over the years but my poison of choice is acrylic paint marker on canvas or wood with maybe a hint of colored pencil or India ink

God cavalier spaniels have been breed so badly that their brains don't fit in their skulls so they have seizure disorders. Why can't we enjoy animals without mutating them to disability

I'm so angry the piss boy in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga didn't scream "WITPISS ME!" before he blew himself up. A missed opportunity. Taking a whole star off my rating.

This is horrible this horse shouldn't be. This is up there with the horrible inbreeding you see I'm Arabians to get a deformed skulls (dished face) because it's...desired? Pug levels of not being able to breathe because of nightmarish breed standards.

My partner sent me a picture of her boss riding a horse and asked what breed it was, and it had such a horrible over-muscled confirmation it looked like a severely inbred quarter horse I was sure it was photoshoped. No. Til about the body horrors of the Halter Horse industry, the bulldog of horses.
