Mister E. and the Kolah King

I seem to have gotten a bit carried away with this week’s Remake thread:

Mister Ellis had this character description -

From 1941, when the drugs were apparently very good:

Mr. E appealed for guidance and assistance to a statue of a ancient tribal god named King Kolah which he housed in a subterranean temple beneath his home. Kolah presented Mr. E with visions that led him to criminals. The idol also gave Mr. E the assistance of his elven messengers. The messengers were small gnome-like creatures who could shapeshift into a variety of creatures and wreaked mischief against Mr. E’s enemies. One of the messengers was named Butch. Mr. E used his visions and assistant gnomes to fight crime in Washington DC. Mr. E dated a girl named Miss Terry.

Dredd again?

I think I might have gone the other way and overdone the chin slightly on this one:

Part Eight

Right, it’s technically Tuesday, another Zombie Kitty for you all:

Sketchbook backlog will continue on Wednesday, which is also my day off from the dayjob so it might be something shiiiiiny.

I had another crack at Atoma:

Zombie Kitty tomorrow. Hopefully by then my arms won’t feel like they’re made out of lead…

I am made of tired

Back on Wednesday I was slightly less knackered, so I went hunting and found the 2000AD forum, with this possibly dangerous 15 minutes to draw Dredd’s head thread. This one took me about twenty minutes with no research, which made me realise that in the years since I last bought 2000AD I had somehow managed to forget what shape Dredd’s chin is. I’ll be trying this again soon…

Atoma!

I’m catching up a bit here, this is my take on the current Whitechapel remake thread:

Atoma was a historian from the year 2446, a time of peace. She befriends Dusty Rhodes, an ordinary 20th century kid who becomes a time traveler when he is thrown 500 years into the future. Atoma knew of his arrival from reading his memoirs and was waiting for him. They teamed up to stop a robot riot, putting it to a halt with Dusty’s slingshot. While Atoma has no super-powers, she does wear EDF (electronic directional flight) control nylon-xenton wings which allow her to fly.

Ug

From last week’s Remake thread on Whitechapel, Shinto Samurai. From the description by Mr. Ellis: I swear to you. Frankensteinian zombie samurai. What can you do with that?

I took it to the zoo!

Squirrels and squid and posters oh my!

I found this year’s List:

on the back of that is ‘post more’, so here’s a gig poster I did back in december that I completely forgot to post at the time:

More tomorrow. Ugh, I meant to have more done today seeing as I wasn’t required at the dayjob, but I seem to have slept through it all…

Happy Tuesday! It’s part seven

I had a bit of a rummage through my hard drive, and I’ve turned up a whole stinky pile of stuff I never got around to posting. As part of this year’s List of Doom, from tomorrow I’m going to be posting something every weekday till I clear the backlog. See you then,

Shetland out.

No kitties here. For a change.

I need something to get myself kick-started after Christmas, so I did this:

Normal kitty service will resume on Tuesday.
