Inkdrops 021 – Tattoo Commission: Spooky Mermaid

Just about done with a piece for a UK client, who asked for a spoooky mermaid. She’s going to reside on the right side of the client’s torso. This was fun to work on; I hadn’t drawn a mermaid –subject of countless childhood sketches– in ages. I wanted to create something a little different from the countless existing interpretations of the subject, so research was a big part of this process. This piece by Waterhouse and this one by Harry …

Inkdrops 020 – Tattoo Commission: Tentacle Villainess

Just finished this up yesterday and am fairly pleased with it. A peek into my tattoo design process: it’s going on the client’s upper arm, so I requested a photo of the exact area and created a digital mockup before drawing anything – the idea here is that the piece will cover most of the upper arm and the legs and filigree will wrap around a bit. The mockup is too hideous to show you, though. Below are two possible …

Inkdrops 017: Sneak Preview of Travis Louie Collab

Technically this isn’t an “Inkdrop”, but we have more important things to focus on.

Inkdrops 016 – All Dissociation Styles Now Available!

After a few weeks of technical tweaking and bug-ironing, all three styles of my Dissociation T-shirts are now available over at Wiloh, just in time for the holidays. It’s safe to say that I’m pretty excited. When I opened the box of my sample T-shirts, a little wave of relief washed over me – they turned out to be AWESOME.

Inkdrops 010 – Coilhouse 05 Section Headers

Coilhouse 05 will hit stores in just under two weeks, but signed copies with special inserts are already 3/4 gone from our web shop. You can see a comprehensive by-article assessment of the issue here. From the post: Zoetica imagined a blithe, enchanted world of dancing sheiks and courtesans when working on this issue’s Inform/Inspire/Infect section headers. Powdered wigs and perfect maquillage complement tassels and cymbals, as these bejeweled vixens shimmy you into each section. The headers also feature the …

Inkdrops 008 – Seekrit Project and Hawking Art in Twitter Auctions

Presenting some things I’ve been doing for your eyeballs! 1. A certain poster project took up most of last week. The art part actually done now, and it’s down to the design aspect of the beast, on which I’m hoping to collaborate with Courtney Riot, provided that designing Coilhouse issue 05 doesn’t drain her of all power. The piece in progress: Even though the drawing and coloring is finished, I don’t want to show the entire thing just yes, so …

Nano-post: Chinashop Returns, Biorequiem Stickers Now Available!

It’s been a whirlwind over here. Between last week’s Coilhouse residency on Whitechapel, Issue 04 selling out, working on Issue 05 content, shooting naked girls, doing coverage for Chinashop, and planning a small party [about which I will tell you later], I’ve barely got time to breathe. However! I come up for air bearing news of hot girls and art. Indeed Chinashop is back from winter break and just in time for me to cover the recent Doctor Sketchy Marathon, …
