The canvas is a So Cal Charvel ... the subject... Mummy Puppets... How can you NOT look?

Mike sounds nothing like I expected him to sound like haha. Love having the sound though. Music seemed a little mellow for Zombie painting though.

Nice job, and superb music choice.

How is holding the airbrush for long period like that? Any issues with stiffness and/or tendonitis?

Also, will this graphic be a monochrome image or do you do a monochrome base and work up the color from there?

I would ask this in the chat but my work firewall blocks the chat portion of ustream.

It isn't bad with the way I hold it at the first knuckle on the trigger.

I have tendonitis and carpal in my left hand. But I refuse to get surgery. When I play my guitar, it loosens it up nicely. Ad a little arthritis, it is all good.

Nice! I love mummies and zombies, been thinking of getting some tattoo work in that style. Mike
needs to start doing tats!

Thanks for doing this, I wish I wasn't working so much today so I had time to pay closer attention. It's so cool seeing the paintjob go from nothing but a rough outline to the finished product. It makes me wish I had artistic (illustration) talent.

You should be painting fantasy novel covers too. You definitely can capture a Frazzeta like vibe in a lot of your art.
