Thanks wanwan. Heh, almost every painting I do involves me thinking 'when will this end?!?' It seems I get everthing I do to within an hour or so of the finish line and then get monstrously bored with it

That's so excellent. "I got bored half way through and made him into a zombie." I think I love you. XD

But seriously. Your kickass combination of great technical skill and uniquely twisted concepts make all your work just great. It's been a long while since I saw a gallery here that I literally had the thought process of "I want more!" while going through it. X3

I see that collar and I can't help but think "That looks useful to prevent zombies from eating your brains..."

Huh. The shape of the head, colour of the corpse skin, the beard.....they all remind me of the Corspe character from the Hellboy movie --> [link]
