Coffin Joe

Currently watching the Coffin Joe collection on DVD (not very Christmas-like, I know) and had to do something to commemorate it. I plan on doing something a lot more illustrated than this and already created a funky sketch with evil eyes and everything but when I started reproducing the sketch I liked the simplicity of the shapes. I have noticed there are a lot of illustrations of Zé do Caixão later on in his career when he is a lot more... bulkier, but very few of him from the first couple of movies (At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul and This Night I Will Possess Your Corpse) so this is Coffin Joe at his original and most camp. I HATE MELODRAMA!!!!

Smash Everything

I was asked by Tony The Pimp himself to create this cartoon and there was no way I could say no to that. Bobby Rhodes, most famous for having the greatest quotes of all time in Lamberto Bava's Demons and Demons 2 has long been an iconic hero of mine and to take up the challenge was a terrifying one. However It was so successful among Bobby and his fans that they are going to be printing t-shirts with my design on.
I confess that the pose is an improved version of Ash's from my Bruce vs Nathan illustration but wanted to rework it for a while now.
This illustration is going to be part of a Demons set so watch this space.

Demons is my second favorite franchise in the world (after Hellraiser) and needs to be seen and owned. Find Bobby Rhodes on Facebook
