So excited to be working on this t-shrit design for Hulk Hogan body-slamming Andre the Giant – been a huge fan of his since the early shirt-ripping days – by the way, I realize his hand is backwards! Haha! Fixed! #hulkhogan @hulkhogan #tshirtdesign #pencilsketch #illustration #art #instaart #instaartist
Really happy to share this illustration I created for the #DiscGolf company @Discraft for a new series of their discs featuring their mascot transformed into one of my favorite slashers. Super fun working with these guys – always love it when clients take the time to send me a sample of the product – really helps fine tune things and take a break from the screen.⠀#michaelmyers #illustration @discraftdiscgolf

I was thrilled recently to work with #BoyScouts Of America illustrating their Bear, Wolf, and Tiger #mascots for a catalog that went out to all troops nationwide. We created illustrations that blended real studio photos of kids in Boy Scouts gear, and drawn into a comic book background. The marketing team hired me to reinvent the existing mascot illustrations in my own style. I was a Cub Scout long ago, so it was a lot of fun to leave a little mark on the organization. ⠀#mangastudio #photoshop #illustration #tshirt #art #instaart #instaartist #picoftheday #igdaily #followme

Very excited to be working on an event poster for the Nightmare on Chicago Street – I decided to draw the poster on paper initially instead of digitally so I could really fine-tune the details. More to come soon!

I created this #albumcover #illustration for #ListenableRecords- a tribute to the iconic #BlackSabbath cover⠀I tried to pump as much of my style into it, while still keeping the pose close enough that fans of the early Black Sabbath material would get it.

Digitally painting a troll and witch scene – always a little hesitant when I’m painting (I prefer inking and coloring underneath) – but for atmospheric scenes like this, I find it’s easier to get the effect I want by painting instead.#photoshopart #digitalpainting #wacomcintiq #fantasyart
Saw IT this weekend and was blown away. Literally had trouble sleeping for a couple nights. Kudos to everyone involved for taking such a long and complex story and staying true to it without being a slave to the material. Can’t wait for the second part. Here’s my attempt at drawing IT with a brush pen. Any original inks I post I’m selling for $45 – DM me if interested. Thanks!#brushpen #pentel #itmovie #clown #inkdrawing #artwork

#TheNewsJunkie website hired me to create this #tshirt #illustration of the 2016 #election – which can be summed up as a guy in a gas mask eating popcorn watching the world burn around him. ⠀Not exactly optimistic – but we wanted to do something a bit tongue-in-cheek for all of us that can’t help but enjoy the chaos just a little.

I can FINALLY post this! Official Alien illustration I created for the backglass of the new Limited Edition Pinball Machine licensed from 20th Century Fox and built by Heighway Pinball!!! Exclamation points!!⠀We had to turn this around on a super quick deadline, racing to release the artwork on Alien Day in 2017. HR Giger, the genius behind the Alien creature concept, was one of my very first artistic inspirations when I was a kid, so it was a great compliment to be able to play around in his shadow a little.#pinballart #pinball #alienpinball #alien #giger #backglass #heighway New Artwork From Instagram
