Well, Clarice - have the lambs stopped screaming?

Watched The Silence of the Lambs a month ago and instantly regretted not seeing it sooner. I don't typically come up with ideas while watching the movie itself, but this one was a special occasion.

So anyways, here it is! I tried to go with the palette from the original movie poster while adding my own touch and composition to give it a bit more of a change (or at least I tried to).

Said I'd lie and wait forever...

Merry Christmas! This start of the semester has been hectic, and I haven't had any proper time to sit down and work through the pile of unfinished drawings that have been piling up.,, but there's still Christmas up ahead, so I'll try to polish them and start posting them around here.

I know I've been having a heavy fixation with the lovers, but it's JUST too tempting not to whenever an idea with them pops into my mind. I did this one for a Halloween expo, and it came out amazing! People loved it.

THE DEMOLITION LOVERS

Want to see them in their own separate posts? Visit the Lady and the Man on their own!

The dread of not knowing if it was going to align well had me in a chokehold, not gonna lie. Joined together at last by a single red thread and their own hearts in their sleeves for all to see.

Second part! I wanted it to have a big contrast since the Demolition Lady has a lot of white and the Demolition Man a lot of black. Adding blood to somehow insinuate the form of his torso also seemed like a fun idea to try while also maintaining the reference from Eugene's photos.

Both bound by a bleeding heart. Isn't that romantic?

I'll make a final post tomorrow using both so the double poster can be seen more clearly. They both deserve to have their own separate post together!

THE DEMOLITION LOVERS PT 1

First part of a double poster I decided to make of the Demolition Lovers and based on a series of photos made by Eugene Robert Richee that portrayed the Hollywood star Louise Brooks.

I'm really looking forward to the new concerts in the UK and Europe. Long Live the Black Parade has been absolutely nuts and I can't wait to see and watch them live.

''KINDNESS IS THE NEW PUNK ROCK''

Terribly late, but things got in the way, and I wasn't able to properly work on any drawings to completion BUT... we're so back.

I saw Superman both in July and August, and I'm still not over it. I never knew a superhero movie could move me so much, but there are always first times for anything, it seems. I really wanted to go with a slightly 'dirtier' shading style to do a sort of homage to the more old-school style that superhero comics had back then, and since I'm just trying and figuring things out, I decided to just say screw it!

FUN HAVING IS MANDATORY. MANDATORY FUN IS HEALTHY FOR THE MIND.

I really don't know how to label this since it first started out as a study of a picture of Gerard I saw around Twitter (which I believe is from SPOOOKYLILLY on IG!). Things got out of hand once more detail was put into it, and thus this came out as a final result.

I've been searching for a style I feel comfortable with on digital, and with this, I must say I've definitely found it. It took me WAY longer than it should have to finish it in inbetween changes and corrections, but it worked out in the end!

This tour is full of moments that really make me question Gerard's and the band's sanity as a whole, but who are we to judge?

ᴍᴀᴍᴀ, ɪ'ᴍ ᴄᴏᴍɪɴɢ ʜᴏᴍᴇ

Yesterday's news was devastating. Even though it's not much, I know that I have to pay my tribute to Ozzy in any way I can. And the best way I know how is with my own art, since he inspired me with his own and shaped my great love for metal and rock music to this day.

I made this back in October, when I couldn't stop listening to No More Tears from front to back. I didn't know it then, but his music would help me through a very bleak period of my life afterwards.

Having grown up in a home that blasted his music, along with so many other artists, it's hard to believe that none of them are eternal. He may have passed on, but he'll always remain present every time I put my headphones on. Now and forever.
