Happy Halloween!

This is my contribution to the fanbook The Darkest Nights , which I think everyone should read! It's contains very graphic violence and gore, though, so it's not for the faint of heart. It's still an absolute interactive roller coaster that's been beautifully put together, so I highly recommend it.

And for those curious, here's a little statement I wrote on my contribution via my blog, because why not?:

I wanted to do a few pieces based on my favorite horror episodes of the new series, but I only managed to get this one done. Psychological horror is more my thing than straight up violence and gore, so I went with a sprinkle of that and threw in some body horror for a healthy dose of ‘bad end’ as it were.
If anyone’s curious, I tried to go from the angle of ‘the antidote worked on Mikey, but his brothers were too far gone’. Or maybe it had a different, negative affect on them since the venom was in them for much longer. Whichever works best.
The twist being that the antidote didn’t actually work on Mikey either. Rather it merely delayed the inevitable; he’s fighting an unwinnable battle and the image is meant to represent the moment he’s about to lose.
So um, yeah. That’s what I was going for I guess. If you were wondering about my thought process while drawing it.
