Werewolves & Monsters!

Thu Jun 11, 2009, 3:16 PM
I have to ask you all a good question or two:

Everyone by now should know I am working on a Werewolf Sequential Art story and I take my innovations, designs and story very seriously. What I would like to know is:

What is your favorite Werewolf movie if any & Why?
Favorite Werewolf in a movie?
You can also tell me what your favorite monster of monsters is and even your favorite genre with monsters… I want to hear from you all!

For me its:

Favorite Werewolf movie(s):
1.) American Werewolf from London
2.) Dogsoldiers
3.) Underworld 3
4.) Van Helsing

Favorite Werewolf in a movie(s):
Van Helsing followed closely by the Howling, and Dogsoldiers. I am fond of the Underworld’s Lycans, but I think their aesthetic is not as strong as impressionable as Van Helsing’s. Funny they were done by the same design studio. Patrick Tatopolous Studio… Hats off to you guys!!

Favorite Monster(s):
Kiryu!!! Followed closely by Aliens & Predator! Hey I love the late & great Stan Winston, so what can ya say…

Favorite Monster Genre(s):
Kaiju, followed by a good Sci-Fi Horror

I just put up 3 pieces for collaboration in my Scraps folder. You and Mark have fun - please read my messages below each piece. I look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Man... This is...
Let's just say that i didn't see anything like this on deviant.
:iconnewtman001:
My bad - that was supposed to go to dirtbomb. That said, I can't get over your penciling skills. You've got tactile surfaces down to a science. And the Kraken piece is mind-blowing! I'll be studying that picture for the next couple of months.
:iconmadjaguar:
thanks a million! the :[link] was and still is one of my personal favorites. As to my pencilling, well lets just say I am still seeking major improvements and exploring new techniques.

Well while you're exploring, how about dropping some science on me regarding your current pencil tech? I've downloaded the Kraken, and a bunch of your Splicer pieces for study. You're doing a style that I haven't seen since an artist named Dell Harris from back in the day.

Do you have a library of tactile surfaces you use for reference? Simply put, that's a bomb-ass style, and I want to learn it.
:iconmadjaguar:
Thanx a million!!! I would be glad to swap illustration techniques with ya! The Splicers material is one aspect, but I am truying to devise a different technique for painting as well.

I will have to google Dell Harris.

I dont have a library of surfaces, though it is alays a good idea to compare references for items that I am not accustomed to. Creatures & fauna I have been doing for a long time. I am now applying an artistic approach more stringent in my regiment, "Function begets Form." This helps not only in design but also the delivery.

Thank YOU! That you are willing to share your mad-stoopid drawin' SKILLZ is a noble thing. i bow deeply in appreciation.

I thought I recognized someone who has an affinity for real-life biology. Keep going with it - it separates the adults from the wannabe's in our line of illustration.

I'm eager to hear more about your new approach. I've just learned some new stuff that has changed the way I paint digitally, too. I'll post some examples in my "scraps" section later today.
