I know this image is HUGE, but I had to re-post it just out of principal.
This is my favorite piece that I've seen in a long time! :thumbsup
This is so cool, I wouldn't even care if it was Paint Shop Pro.
Here is some of my stuff:

Cthulhu. Ink and white paint on 18"x18" vellum.
EDIT: Yikes, that's wide. I see there's another really wide one farther up but if mine's messing up the page too much does anyone know how I can scale this down a bit? Kinda hard to find a balance between easy viewing and the details being visible.

Here's my last one.
I gave it to cleverlilminx as a secret Santa gift this year.
It's Acrylic on 9x12 Canvas , and is the second portrait that I've ever painted.
the other was a self-portrait of me that I did a year ago (also gave that away at Christmas last year)

Adam - love the Cthulhu. Have you given thought to doing a Mountains of Madness piece?

Thanks! BRRogers and slave1pilot, those paintings are sick!
Re: Mountains of Madness piece: I have not. This was originally going to be an album cover for my friends' metal band but they just broke up because the bass player moved to Florida so the guitar player and I are trying to repurpose it for his new band....we'll see how that goes. Anyway, it was pretty much the first time I'd looked into any of the Cthulhu mythos in depth. The guy I did the cover for (guitar player) loaned me his copy of the Necronomicon while I was doing research and designing my version of Cthulhu and I still have it so now that I actually have him down I'm very tempted to do a pic from another story that includes his bottom half and wings because I have those designed, they just had no place in this one.
Since you mention Mountains of Madness I'll give a bit of extra detail on this pic b/c it's a depiction of a scene from The Call of Cthulhu and I put a lot of effort into fitting it in. That actually is a steam yacht that IRL is 94 feet long end to end, 86 feet without the stern spike that I just left barebones b/c at that point it'd been highjacked, what twice at least that we know of from the story? Figured it'd been ransacked for anything that woulda been in there except weapons that both Johansen and Braden would have had on or near them. I know Braden never jumps off the boat but it's the one liberty I took and it was the only way I could show the poo in his pants so off the boat he goes. Johansen could have recovered the body after the encounter. My birthday just happens to be about halfway between the date of their encounter with the pirates and when they were rescued so I figured that was a good date for their Cthulhu encounter and looked up star charts for where I figured they were from the coordinates in the story on March 31, 1925 (60 years to the day before I was born) and put in the basic pattern of the stars from that and then did the random dots, spatter and fill-in dots after that so in the parlance of the stories, the stars are (pretty much) right.
Wow, that's so long I don't even wanna read it over to proof it. Ok, I'm done now...

Heh, I hadn't noticed the detail on the pants... You put a inordinate amount of research into the pic - kudos.

Here's a few sketches I did for the IDSketching weekly sketch contest.
The outlines of the bluetooth was given to us and we had to render it.
This one was for Desktop Speakers. I don't have a lot of room on my desk so I made some chair speakers.

Just finished this one the other day:
Trying to force myself into doing at least one personal piece a month. Seems like I am always drawing, but it's for other people and never really anything I'd want to show to an audience.

I would suggest using the spoiler tags. [ SPOILER ] and [/ SPOILER ] minus the spaces. This way, only people who want to see an inordinately large picture can click and have it revealed.
Like that.
