This will make a lot of sense to those who have watched the show ...

Has anyone else here copped to that?

Yup, Oex. He says he watched it with his goddaughter.

I admit, the characters, why each was chosen for a particular card, can't make much sense if you haven't seen the show. 

In this case, the character depicted is basically the main character's magic mentor; but he's, essentially, a trickster.

Super cool.

It was nice to see the progression btw.

Thanks!

Actually, the progression ought to start with the first sketches for the layout, drawn on the back of a napkin. But I threw that out before I got the idea of taking pictures at various stages.

What kind of pens you using Malthus?  Brush & ink, or Micron Pigma's and the like?

Here are some of them:



Mostly, I use regular and brush markers (I really love brush markers! So decadently convenient!). For the gold, I use a gold paint pen, which gives very nice coverage.

Here's the latest, King of Clubs.

The first image is of a Lizard-like assassin hired by the Queen of Clubs, who uses a chainsaw to hack between dimensions (and victims).

The second image is of the creepy assistant or companion to the Queen of Clubs, who is admiring a doll based on the male protagonist (in drag) before going to bed.

A lizard man with a chainsaw. Genius.

A lizard man with a chainsaw. Genius.

His function in the show is to appear horribly frightening, and yet to die almost instantly (though not totally - he's busy regenerating from an arm).

[The Minsky Moment]

If I were ever attacked by a chainsaw wielding giant lizard, the arm would be the *first* thing I'd try to take out.

Here is some gift art I did for a woman I know who got married a few days ago. Marriage art isn't really my thing, but I tried:

The bride looks so apprehensive and scared   good drawing though.

Heh, I was going for the 'apprehensive but eager' look. 

[HVC]

hey, a 50% transmission of intent in art is above average. Go us!

[Valmy]

That looks weirdly creepy. But maybe that is just because I saw the other stuff first
