Too kind, thank you. I have thought about getting a flea market booth to sell some of my work (and some of my weird junk hoard).
I wanted to do something for Halloween. This is the result. I started by slapping some plastic wrap on the front of an anatomical skull model. This provided a form for the paper mache model, which I built up in layers using strips of newsprint and a PVA glue mixture. After the paper mache was dry, I popped it off the form and filled it with spray foam. Since I knew I wanted to use phosphorescent paint for the eyes, I painted the inside of the eye sockets with white gesso. Once the gesso dried, I applied a few layers of phosphorescent acrylic paint to the eye sockets. I then poked holes for the mouth stitching and glued strands of sisal twine into these holes (I should have done this part before filling the back with spray foam, but for some dumb reason I thought this way would be easier). Once the stitches dried, I gave the whole piece a series of brown and blue acrylic washes, then dry brushed accents with bone and white. Next came the arcane symbols, which I slapped on with hobby acrylics. The final step was to give the whole piece a few coats of matte acrylic sealant. I'm not sure what I'll do with this yet, but I had fun.

This looks great, and I appreciate that you didn't just casually mention butter paneer pizza without following up with the details! I'm trying this soon.

Yeah, we ran short on spinach and the color was off as a result. I probably added too much turmeric as well.

Yep. I don't see this going into regular rotation, but it was fun to make the attempt.

Fair enough. Palak paneer is not what I'd call "show food". Although if you pass on every food that looks like vomit, you're going to miss out on some stuff.

Butter paneer pizza sounds interesting. I'm with it.

I dig this one a lot. Is this part of a larger storyboard?

Thank you! I had a rough idea of a layout when I started, but this was very much an organic sketch, about ninety percent "just roll with it".
This started as a quick pencil sketch / fantasy cartography exercise; the line work was added as an afterthought. Approximately 8 x 7 cm.

My favorite example of this happened during a D&D game years ago in which the DM kept pronouncing the word portcullis as PORK-YOO-LISS.
To this day, the word causes the image of some sort of ancient Roman pig gladiator to appear unbidden in my mind.

Thanks for looking into this, officer Silkshirtski. Beth left here last night with that dirtbag Glenn, and he just kept saying he was "gonna take our daughter out tonight" and asking us if we wanted to "find hell with him"? We're just sick with worry over here.
let us all go together one last time down to the water to drink our procession slipping through the tickling reeds until our feet touch the family mud until those hard little bones start coming up until our teeth are pink when we cough
I'm not given to writing much poetry. Writing this felt strange, like I was thinking with someone else's brain.
This started as a monochrome pencil sketch, but I then decided to experiment with backgrounds and color a bit.
