Happy Halloween! The end of the #Inktober challenge has arrived, and I DID it – I drew and posted an ink drawing every day this month.Thanks so much for all the positive comments, and for sticking with me – I always hate to bombard people with posts. Question: Which of the 31 sketches I posted was your favorite?I absolutely need to make this part of my daily routine – I forgot how much fun it is to draw just for drawing's sake.#inktober #clown #ink #sketch #brush #blackandwhite #art #instaartist #brianallen Work in progress from the desk of illustrator Brian Allen

How to digitally ink in Manga Studio 5 – Horror movie monsters and heavy metal character designs.
I illustrated this dark detailed illustration of an epic battle between Freddy, Leatherface, Nosferatu, The Excorsist, Frankenstein, Kirk Hammet, Ozzy, Alice Cooper, Corey Taylor, and more for a documentary on the history of Metal and Horror.
I was hired by Producer Mike Schiff of M.A.S. Productions to create an illustration of some of the most iconic figures in horror and heavy metal engaging in an epic battle. The image was used to promote a documentary they produced which explores the history of heavy metal music, horror films, and how the two genres have merged together over time.
The documentary features interviews with Alice Cooper, Kirk Hammett, Corey Taylor, plus a ton of other heavy metal stars, along with huge names in the horror industry. It was so great getting the chance to illustrate these iconic figures, including Freddy, Leatherface, Nosferatu, Ozzy, Alice Cooper, Kirk Hammet, and more. Pieces of the illustration were also used for an animation promoting the documentary.

Incredible job on this. I knew you’d create something amazing , and holy crap is this good.

This drawing I did for #Inktober Day 15 shows another one of my early sources of inspiration – Todd McFarlane from Spawn.

I created this mascot and logo design for a team of drag-racer’s new line of merchandise and apparel. The client wanted a tough, dark, militant mascot character that could later be drawn in other situations and shenanigans. We went through a few sketches at the beginning that were a bit too light, and eventually arrived at RAD, the skeletal, drag-racing warrior you see before you! The mascot and logo was prepared for both limited color silk-screening and full-color printing, to maximize the usage.

I was asked to design the mascot sitting in a pose inspired by The Thinker, with the rock replaced by a crumpled Notre Dame mascot. If you want a drawing challenge, try making a tree look mean. It’s not easy! Trees are usually pretty pleasant.

All-over-print dye-sublimated wrestling singlet design I created for BlueChip wrestling. This design was inspired by futurustic combat like in Gears of War. We created this future soldier character standing in front of a ruined cityscape. I reached out to a talented digital painter named Luciano Fleitas to help me with the background because I was in a crunch. I’m really happy with how this came together.
I created this as part of a series of wrestling singlet designs for BlueChip’s summer catalog. The designs will also be available on fight shorts. I find it so enjoyable working with dye sublimation, because the color and detail reproduction is fantastic, and I don’t have to worry about the head-scratching that comes from working with silk-screen.

I created this as part of a series of wrestling singlet designs for BlueChip’s summer catalog. The designs will also be available on fight shorts. I find it so enjoyable working with dye sublimation, because the color and detail reproduction is fantastic, and I don’t have to worry about the head-scratching that comes from working with silk-screen.
All-over-print dye-sublimated wrestling singlet design I created for BlueChip wrestling. This design was for their patriotic catalog, featuring a big angry eagle clutching a banner in front of a textured American Flag. I tried to give it a lot of depth, and fit a lot of different singlet sizes.

Thanks for all the recent followers and comments – I really appreciate it. I wanted to share this alligator I painted in photoshop for a t-shirt pitch to the documentary show Swamp People. Any feedback on how this could have been better?#swamppeople #alligator #swamp #digital #art #painting #tshritart #photoshop Work in progress from the desk of illustrator Brian Allen
All-over-print dye-sublimated wrestling singlet design I created for BlueChip wrestling. The design is meant to be a reimagining of the classic bold shapes and pin striping that is common in singlets. I tried to give it a lot of depth, and keep it very customizable to different team colors.

All-over-print dye-sublimated wrestling singlet design I created for BlueChip wrestling.

I created these concept illustrations of a steampunk family of adventurers for an educational publisher called Bogardpress. The character designs will be used to illustrate their educational materials and lessons. Each year the team uses a different theme and concept to tie their lessons together. I really enjoyed the whole process, from developing the characters in sketches, to coloring and rendering the final versions. I tried to add a bit of style into the characters to keep them from becoming generic. I especially enjoyed creating the robot character.
