Skully

... and I shall name you skully

Today's sketch. I have no idea if this book can handle watercolor (I think so) so I will ink it and get a shot before I attempt... can always redraw.

Nearly There...

Building the Soul Tree

So the work continues. This blast of cool air is just what I needed to get this thing to dry... and not a moment too soon as Halloween is next Monday. I found nearly a perfect heart for him at Target (the only thing is it is slightly small). But it looks like a real heart and pulses a red light. More pics here

Stage one is almost done. the next step is to use paper clay to smooth out the inconsistencies. the paint and seal! But before that happens I have to somehow figure out what I need to do to make the long fingers above his head support their own weight.

Puny me, clean spaces, & the Amazing Circus Tent

I managed to put the majority of my costume together over the weekend.

As I'm sure you can see it needs some work... Mostly my own physique. So I'm working hard to beef back up after years of sedentary procrastination. As for the costume it needs some brassy bits and a harness for the canister in my hand but I would say 98% done.

Speaking of weekends this one was a productive one. We were able to clean my "man cave" to fit more HHN paraphernalia as well my various random... randomness that I make/collect. Not only that but we we also cleaned out the garage to start construction on the Soul Tree. (my wife says it was to fit the car in... pshaw) I plan on creating a step by step how to on how I will do it. So expect to see something on that after this weekend. Currently I have a bucky Skeleton, a more realistic skull with jaw removed, chicken wire, and pool noodles... But I'm getting ahead of myself.

In other news the "A Circus tent Full of Ghosts" art is progressing nicely and the official cover art is now on the Kindle version for only $5.99!
