Remember the Stabbath day, to keep it holey
Only my second post this month!
This is a new art for a Vault classic, the 42" Drop Carve longboard. The client felt the deck needed a bit of a facelift despite being a really popular board.
I was inspired by the crazy cultists and their weapons in Mike Mignola's BPRD, and especially Guy Davis' designs. I deliberately didn't go back and look at their work when I had this idea though, as I didn't want their styles to influence this piece, I just wanted the ideas I guess.

Werewolf update
Here is the finished image of the werewolf I mentioned in my previous post. Haven't had confirmation on whether the client is happy yet, but I sure am.
I originally tried to colour the drawing using watercolours but failed miserably - I guess I am a bit out of practice. This is coloured using the computer.
