Jinkies! Fred or Velma wouldn't even DARE try and pull the mask off of that ghost. They'd be shaking in the back of the mystery machine with Daphnie, Shaggy, and Scooby. Well done. I wonder what ghosts take with their tea?
Criminy! These keep getting better and better, Martin! Amazing face on that poor little kid! The illustration is a small masterpiece and the red lamps perfectly accent the overall design.
Man Martin, is this one ever creepy! Can I ask what this work is for? Or is it top secret? You should illustrate a collection of kids ghost stories or something. Kids need to be brought up on this kind of classy/scary stuff. Awesome work!
Beautiful! Excellent contrast, design wise and color wise. I hope you'll explore a bit more the ghost/children theme. If I had a lot of money I would have tried to buy this one.
I dont know why I even bother posting any comments because they re always the same... AWESOME! how are you doing these? Are you drawing straight into the computer or are these more tradional, or both? Either way your stuff is absolutely outstanding and very much inspiring. Thanks for the good stuff keep it comming... please.
This is probably my favorite one out of the ghosts! I love the colour scheme and the composition of everything, and it really makes me want some tea now!
Soooo nice! You don't know how much I want these 3 ghost pictures printed and put on my wall!! Really great work Martin! I can't put my finger on what really makes this stand out so uniquely. Must just be a great combination of line work, colour choices and great execution! Keep up the magic!
Martin, my jaw is resting on the floor as I'm writing this! You never cease to amaze me. Again, great unique style, beautiful colors and layout and of course as always, great story telling. Can't remember if I've asked before, but how big are these pieces? You could make a lot of $$$ turning this stuff into posters. I know I'd love to have it on my walls!
I always get here a little late, you have like 30 comments already, I don't even know if you'll read this, oh well. THese are looking so great man! I'm inspired.
Martin, those last two postings are my favorites so far. The designs and colors are great, but most importantly they really tell a story and create a mood. Beautiful!
