Description a sketch I started on the airplane to SDCC, literally just a few lines here and there that made something of a shape.

When I got home, I thought I'd give it a shot and here's what came of it.

Been trying something new with adding little stories to each piece within the art. Nothing too deep but something to get you thinking or make you squirm.

I'm currently working on a project with some of the guys from Cyanide & Happiness and Joel from HijinksEnsue. It's something that is right up my alley.

So you may be seeing this creature again soon

Very awesome. I think what I like most is the suggestion the words give, that within our heads those horrible memories we want to let go, keep holding on with numerous sucking tentacles~ Makes me shiver just looking at it :'D

Those suckers are really eye-catching... especially if they were to attack one's face.

The word addition intrigues me, as it adds another dimension to the artwork. It shows us a little slice of how you feel about the piece and its meaning / message, and then it also gives the viewer one more item to decode, process, and interpret for themselves.

That ghoulish grin looks pretty tight. And those tenticles look real fluid

It looks like something that should be killed with fire.

Hhmm...Original and interesting. I'd watch that.

I can't take much credit... Have you ever seen "The Brothers Grimm" with Heath Ledger and Matt Damon? They use a number of different concoctions to "slay a witch" early on in the film, and child's tears was one of them.

I've heard of them, but I had no idea they made a movie of them.

The movie is more of a comedy than anything, though it is delightfully quirky to me. It's not historical in any way, haha, but plays off of the major stories and their plot/character aspects.

Speaking of quirky, I heard they made a new Ice Age. I haven't watched it recently. Do you know if it's still any good?

Imbricated In reply to SogenOkami [2012-07-21 04:08:47 +0000 UTC]

I haven't seen it... Though the initial trailers made it look phenomenally uninteresting, recent views make me think it could work.

I just hope they don't ruin it by overmilking it like a lot of animes do.

It's a "family" movie series... sadly, I'm sure that means they will.

I dunno. I had worries that 343 Industries was doing that with Halo 4 but it's shaping up to be awesome. Maybe this movie can pull it off too.

It's totally cool. I like everything about it, but the tentacles in particular
