this is something I did a while back. I got a brainstorm of doing some SB characters in this medium which I think would look good. Anyway, here's my Lucha done with 1-Shot and some reverse painting for depth. A little more graphic than the 1st version but the 1-shot lends itself to that look. close up of the scroll and you can see the drop shadows that painting on the different layers creates.
thanks Parka, yeah, I flipped through some old paintings and just realized how influenced I am by Japanese toys. It's in the blood I guess.
you work makes me drool. very humbling! i am a mere mortal myself keep posting! i think we'd all love to see what you've got....
Every time you post artwork it makes me really happy that I pointed you in skullbrain's direction. I'd love to see a lucha version skullbrain done in that style! keep up the good work!!
sooooo nice! BEAUTIFUL! have you ever tried to paint in reverse so the paint is on the under side of the glass? just wondering.
"I'd love to see a lucha version skullbrain done in that style!" mmm...casting a skull body as we speak to make my own head and arms.
that painting is actually both devil. Reverse and regular (on top) to create layers. you can probably see that in one of the close ups. The reverse gives you that full on plastic feel since it's on plexi. thanks everyone for the kind words.
That's really very nice. It reminds me of the visual depth you experience when playing old pinball machines. I'm waiting for the eyes to light up and to hear an evil laugh!
That is sweet! Have you ever thought about doing some smaller pieces? I would totally drop some cash on that! Great job!
sometimes, when I look at this thing for too long, I could swear the eyes are lit up and I do hear an evil laugh
I dread seeing something like this being shipped to the uk. But i'd love to see your take on original Lucha masks such as Dr Wagner, Blue Panther, La Parka )) etc.
Dude,how much and were do I pay?Sick shit man.I think a series of smaller peices in the same theme(Luchalibre) would be cool.
Yeah, I'd love to see some mini ones based on lucha legends, Santo, Blue Panther et al. Any idea on prices. Fantastic stuff.
i'll do it!, damn it. why didn't I think of that myself? They'll probably be around 7" x 9". 2 layers. the base will be transluscent white and the overlay will be clear. 1-shot paints.
