Description ok.
so this is a ‘taste’ of something bigger that i’m still tinkering with.
just felt like submitting something as i’m running screaming for the door at FIVE-O-CLOCK!
geesh. i thought friday would NEVER get here!
so anyway,...
got to give props to my brother deep for letting me totally rip his lettering for some of my
text.
so now i owe him sex.
pft. the things i won’t do for you guys!

you guys have a great weekend.
i’m out.

i use inks for the most part.
tools of choice are paint brushes and tooth brushes. (for splatter)
thanks so much for checking it out.

Mr. Gone was such an awesome villain, and this is a perfect tribute to him. The skin color and texturing is beautifully done. It looks so decayed and mangy, just like it should. I'm glad to know there are other people who still appreciate the Maxx. Great work!

heh, funny i see this just now ^^'' i finished reading The Maxx today, and go see your gallery and there. This is just fantastic, and i'm still filled with those feelings for the whole story, Gone himself and...well i'll just fav it before i get more in it.

Y'know....I really like the style. The close up uneasiness of the face and that huge fuckin' eyeball with that creepy ass glare. The fact that I'm a huge Maxx fan doesn't hurt either. But the thing that sells this for me is the font scheme of "Mister Gone" 'cause at heart I'm still a graphic design junky. The chaoticness of the style of "mister" constrasting with the solid boldness of "gone" is brilliant. How the hell did you come up with that first font anyway? Regardless, it looks fucking amazing.

Word.

Venasque [2005-07-26 19:58:56 +0000 UTC]

I think it's nothing short of awesome with all the greens seemingly blending into everything on the canvas, save the lettering. It struck me as something akin to Dave McKean's cover for the Batman graphic novel "Arkham Asylum", with the looming wide-eyed 'happy' face of The Joker... have you ever seen that?

No matter, for this stands on its own, and stands mightily!

This is awesome! I'm keeping my eye on you.

Those teeth are the best!
The detail and over all gnarness of your art is so mind blowing. Im so happy you got that DD not only because you desrved it, but I woulda never found your gallery and all the great treasure its stuffed within it. I'll be watching. Take care.

Absolutely beautiful - I'm a big fan of The Maxx, and it's great to see you've stayed faithful to the original design, whilke still adding your own grittiness.
Cant wait to see the finished piece!

Dude. Seriously. Stop being so freaking fantastic or I'm going to have to come over there and vent my frustration at how heads and shoulders above me talented you are by putting my hands on your back and giving you a huge shove thru your wall (thus creating another dholms shaped-shape, but hey, that's what the putty's for) and stop letting your brother take "advantage" of you in that way you sick little monkey... wait... unless by "owe him sex" you mean you have to go "buy him some"..? In that case I can suggest a good little street corner in Reno...

Interesting excerpt from here: [link] "With the closure of the Mustang Ranch and the restrictions placed on making the public aware of the services of existing legal brothels, there has been a proliferation of illegal hooking in Reno. Quite frankly, the under-funded police are only scratching the surface by targeting the Fourth Street girls. Reno is turning into a Las Vegas, with a myriad of escort services and freelance pros flooding the area. The problem of illegal prostitution runs much deeper than the article implied."

So I guess they're cracking down on 4th Street; but don't worry, you can apparently now find girls on ANY street in Reno!
