Design a Deity - Akamushi
Posted By Scott Hallett at 7:38 AM
This is a character design I did for the
"Design A Deity" blog. The idea is to throw a bunch of deities at each other, and see who would be left standing. Mine is named Akamushi, which means blood worm in Japanese. Here's my description:
"My Deity Akamushi is the best because for decades, he's been enslaving a vast army under the guise of the two-tailed mermaid. Soon, he will wash a flood across the lands; a tidal wave of those coffee-conquered souls, all willing to destroy anything in their path, all in his name."
There's some great talents with more deities on the way, so check it out!

Man oh man, I have had a roller coaster of a time these past weeks! I've been working on art, just not anything I can show. So what can I show? Well, for you technophiles out there, you'll now be able to hit this site on your phones and get a nifty little mobile version. It relies on some fancy javascript though, so for now it will probably only work on iPhones, or any other webkit enabled smart phone. I'll have to address that in the future, but it'll do for now.
Here's some art while I'm at it. These were all
Drawer Geeks entries, some of which I didn't even get a chance to finish and submit on time. Thems the breaks as they say.

The Story So Far...

I've been very busy in my spare time (still got that day job), so I haven't had a chance to post much. I've got a few different things on the go right now, but the biggest one is a book called "Don't Get Sucked Under the Escalator" with Mark Smith (Amazing Joy Buzzards, Aqua Leung). Pretty exciting, and a great story. Here are some promo pieces I put together recently to sort of introduce the story.
Here is my entry for this week over at
Drawer Geeks. The topic was "Triplets".
