I never thought of myself as having a pronounced dark side, but between this and Smitten I'd say it's coming out... in force. I don't know WHY these things are popping into my head. But that's just what happened this morning, when I was just in that place between sleeping and awake, this image popped into my head, and I didn't forget it - during the course of the whole day. I finally sat down to sketch in the late afternoon... and I didn't stop. I kept it going. So now it's done. I believe this is my FIRST OFFICIAL NEW AND COMPLETE PIECE for Illustration Friday! Hey, it only took a year. And since my friend, Jonsie, totally called me out last week, I thought it was about time I followed through. So there Jonsie! What do you think of that?! ;P
And, as a special christmas bonus, here's a sample of the work in progress:

This piece is simply brilliant! It is also fun to see how it evolved and becAME EVEN MORE CLEVER as you played with the concept. A fine antidote to the terminal sweetness that often afflicts us on IF.
morbid, but brilliant.
My, my... I think you have definately gotten in touch with your BAD self! Nice work!
... and so have I ... see my blog... :o)
See what happens when you apply yourself...low-fat and high protein dinner with a nice trophy for the mantle...
Whoa! This is totally dark and creepy, and I love it! It's a great antidote to all the goodwill and pretty pictures the rest of us are making! Really...this is quite funy, and so beautifully rendered. I hope that your Christmas was merry, though. Best wishes for a Happy New Year!
oooh.. very funny! I love how this came out! Great work!
wow, i love this one. the foreground is cool, but the background is awesome too, the moon, trees (or their remnants). why did you remove the one last tree in the final? just curious. anyways, yeah, peace on earth.
Awesome!
