Monster Women Magazine Trading Cards - Base Set

All nine images in the base set. Clean versions.

Here's the first few, finalized. Spent a lot of time tweaking 'em to get the details right, only to have them not make it into the art show. boo.

Monster Women : #1

Monster Women Magazine Presents:  Miss Lucy Westenra, with her pet wolf D.  Been working on this for far too long, finally just calling it.  I get obsessive about...well, everything in an image, so I'm forcing myself to let it go.  Started this about a year ago.  Sheesh.

Started with SketchbookPro, moved to ArtRage, then back'n forth betwixt ArtRage and PS.  Some work on the tablet, some on the main machine.  Full-size is around 13" high, 400 dpi.  I've been making these pretty big (i have various future plans, all of them nefarious).

  Obviously, HEAVILY influenced by old pinups, specifically Elvgren. 

 

So here's 4 of a proposed 9 paintings...the ones that are closest to completion.  Super-small images here, simply because they're not done yet.   But I wanted some kind of evidence I could point to showing that I am, in fact, moving forward on these.   Sometimes I need to kick myself in the ass, y'know?
