Zombay!

I kicked this off with a speed sculpt in Blender and finished it off in Photoshop.

My version of the predator meme but with Kermit and Fozzy’s arms clasped.

β€œFozzy, you son of a bitch!”

Perhaps my greatest work?

Doctor Yaphet was excited to finally find the egg of the rare and exotic buffo lizard. If only he could remember where he parked his starship.

My character, Khoja, from a Numenara adventure run by the brilliant @johnbooth.bsky.social

I think he looks way cooler now that his eyeball got ripped out and eaten by a telepathic, pipe dwelling creature in a sky pyramid. Just another day in the Ninth World.

THE must have toy this year on Geidi Prime. Baby So Harkonnen!β„’. Can you figure out its machinations of betrayal and subterfuge before it’s too late? Also cries and wets its hover chair.

Book cover for NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC PICTURE ATLAS OF OUR UNIVERSE by Roy A. Gallant. Cover art by John Berkey features a white spaceship with red and blue highlights followed by a trail of intense flame. The aerodynamic nose of the craft intersects the arc of a planet. Smaller moons orbit below.

In the clouded skies of Jupiter, Swordtails attack Jellyblimps. The Swordtails resemble aquatic rays, forming broad triangles as they glide with wings wide. They drop tail down to dive bomb the black tentacled cephalopods dangling from green blimp-like air sacs on a series of black cords.

Skating on the surface of Europa with Jupiter looming behind, a green skinned Brinker-Roo slits bulbous eyes and focuses face tentacles forward as it tilts in an aggressive turn. It has no arms and finds balance in the arc of a long spotted neck and an aft heavy with meaty thighs and bony lower legs that end in skate blades. A spiral formation on its back stretches like a Slinky. Behind, its blunt tipped tail curls upward.

Simple art tip but, you don't even need a brush to do an even round tube. Just have a sketch layer using an even width brush with different colors for different depths. Then line it normally and the tube will feel nice and neat.
