Album cover I illustrated for the Brazilian heavy metal band John Wayne (named after John Wayne Gacy – not the other guy). It was a great pleasure working on this with the band, as they gave me a lot of freedom, and I set upon the design without much planning, and tried to let it […]

Here's a detail shot of this album cover I designed for the Brazillian heavy metal band, John Wayne (named after the serial killer, not the cowboy!). #albumcover #metal #heavy #mangastudio #photoshop #illustration #art #instaart #instaartist #picoftheday #igdaily #followme Work in progress from the desk of illustrator Brian Allen

Here's the latest illustration I created for a documentary about horror and heavy metal – Regan from the Exorcist. If you have some time to kill, go google the behind the scenes history behind the Exorcist films – it's like the whole series was cursed.#horror #monster #excorcist #art #digital #mangastudio #illustration #instaart #instaartwork #instaartist #instaartpop […]

Just a couple days away from the end of the #Inktober challenge, and it looks like I'm going to make it (and not miss a day). Here's a nice drawing of a guy who looks like Abe Lincoln for absolutely no reason at all.#inktober #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen Work in progress from […]

On the 27th Day of #Inktober , my pen brush brought to me, some kind of weird naked creature with bad teeth and misshapen head.#inktober #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen Work in progress from the desk of illustrator Brian Allen

(shoot forgot to post this last night) Back to back #tiki ink drawings for #Inktober ! This was a concept I had sketched out a while ago and always wanted to bring it to life. I really dig this idea – I might take this further and make it into a t-shirt design at some […]

For Day 21 of #Inktober , I came up with this adorable little creature serving up sushi. Makes sense to me. Drawn with a Pentel Brush pen.#inktober #sushi #ink #sketch #brush #pentel #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen Work in progress from the desk of illustrator Brian Allen

#Inktober 19 is here, and so am I. I drew up this buck-toothed vampire inspired by Nosferatu with a Pentel pocket brush pen.#inktober #vampire #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen Work in progress from the desk of illustrator Brian Allen

Happy #Inktober and #Drawlloween ! This is a drawing of one of the most feared and mysterious #demons in the darkest depths of the underworld. His friends call him Frank.#inktober #Drawlloween #demon #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen Work in progress from the desk of illustrator Brian Allen

This drawing I did for #Inktober Day 15 shows another one of my early sources of inspiration – Todd McFarlane from Spawn. This wasn't meant to look like the Violator character when I started drawing, but it turned out that way. Pro Drawing Tip: If your character isn't looking great, stick a cigar in his […]

#Inktober 14th's drawing seems to be a bit inspired by John Kricfalusi (Ren and Stimpy) – such an amazing artist.#inktober #ink #sketch #clown #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen Work in progress from the desk of illustrator Brian Allen

#Inktober 12th! I'm happy to say that I haven't missed a day yet. It's sometimes a little painful coming up with something new to draw everyday.#inktober #ink #sketch #brush #nailthroughthehead #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen Work in progress from the desk of illustrator Brian Allen

Day 5 of #Inktober! This is a little throwback to a clown face I used to draw a lot when i didn't know what else to draw. I did a painting of it too a long time ago, which was quite terrible.#ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #clown#mangastudio #photoshop #illustration #tshirt #art #instaart #instaartist #picoftheday #igdaily […]

Third day of #InkTober! I'm really enjoying forcing myself to just have some quick sketching fun on paper again – I need to make this part of my daily routine when October is over. I came up with this idea of alien bug serving sushi. Genius? Ridiculous? Perhaps we'll never know.#inktober #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite […]
