I heart skulls

Skulls are one of my favorite things to draw(I know it's juvenile). But I figured with it being close to Halloween-n-all it would probably be ok. And oh yeah I almost forgot the fire, I like fire too.

  1. I promised myself only comment your dragons, but it's impossible! This skull is really fantastic, especially the rendering of bone. As usual, you totally master the subject...

  3. It's only juvenile if they're done poorly in a high school notebook. This is fantastice, as well as entertaining. Now what's the story behind the number?

  4. Fire is a nice touch. If only I could get this in patch form to sew it onto my sleaveless levi jacket.

  5. I think you could possibly bring flaming skulls back into style, artistically speaking. Brent Adams at BYU would have a heart attack if he saw this.

  9. This thing belongs on a skateboard deck! Skulls and fire are right up there with peanut butter and jelly or cherry coke and hot wings. That's such a cool piece Ryan, I love the oranges and yellows on the bone from the flames and the eyes are completely reminding me of pickled eggs. Many a day we had pickled eggs in the fridge when I was a youngun.

  10. That's super cool. Lot's of textury goodness. I have skull plate I made when I was 6 and I still eat off of it.

  12. Love the drawing and the textures. The texture makes it look solid, but the looseness of the drawing makes it look like it could really sqaush-and-stretch. A nice combo!

  16. Thanks for stoppin' by & leaving the comments, I appreciate it:) ShaneO, the story behind the numbers is that the no.5725 represents how many skulls I've probably drawn over my life. Pretty sad.
