Cover contests

I'm not really an enthusiast of drawing contests. I don't like to work under pressure, because things don't come as you have in mind. And if you add this to the fact of have a little time to dedicate to these drawings, the result is something dramatic.

This is what happened to me some weeks ago. I was immersed into a big move, with all the problems that entails a new house. Anyway, I decided to submit some art to 2 contests: the renewed Darkthrone covers (Ravishing Grimness and Goatlord) and a spanish tribute to Dio.

As I said before, the result was not what I had in mind, 'cause the time was really short.

This is the cover for Ravishing Grimness, inspired on Wotan's figure (absolutely grim)

(the cover I draw for Goatlord is so lame that I haven't got stomach to show it here, haha)

And this is the one for the Dio Tribute. Watercolours, ink and marker on cardboard. The image shows the 4 Dio-stages: Elf, Rainbow, Black Sabbath and Dio himself.

So this is all for today. I promise that in the next contest (if I'll decide to submit something) I'll take more time to make the drawings.

'Til next time.

Hey, stoopid!

Today I've realized that I threw away the pen of my graphic tablet the last time I did a cleaning of my worn out markers/pens. So I should have mistaken it with a ballpen or something, I dunno. The thing is that it's the SECOND TIME this happens to me. So I'm definitely DUMB.

Fact of today.

Take care (and take beers).
