Psycho 78's, Hudson Valley Horrors

The Horrors never returned my emails, but Amanda from the Psycho 78's dropped me a line one day and told me how much she dug Lady Frankenstein here, so I adapted her and tailored her for the 78's and the result is something I'm really happy with:




Inspired by the trailer I saw for the upcoming roller derby flik with Kristin Wiig; I've done a bunch of sketches of pin-up girls related to the derby outfit closest to my heart and house, the Hudson Valley Horrors based in Kingston, NY where I lived for a few years.
I haven't done the final inking on it, but I really wanted to try out some colors on her, so I just did this kinda slap dash in Photoshop. It still needs a lot of work, and I've got issues with some of my color choices, but overall, I think it'll be kinda bad@ss once it's done.

King Babar

Needed to take a break from drawing so many tentacles, so naturally I just move on to elephant trunks. This is actually an idea I had the other day when Diego and I were looking at some Babar books. I just wanted to see the great king rendered a bit more realistically.

Babar the Warrior King:

Think I might take this one a bit further. Do the whole throne room and deck it out in some lion skins and shields and other cliche African King stuff.

Babar the Hindu King:

This one, I think I might work on some more too. Gonna turn this in to an Indian, Afriecan, Parisian hybrid of some sort. Ganesh meets Shaka Zulu meets the Madelyne.
