More screamy burd!

You may vent through this picture, this is what internal screaming looks like! Or what my internal screaming looks like.

The worst thing that could happen to a gunslinger in an violent vampire hunter clan is being turned into a vampire himself. #characterdesign #conceptart #vampire #vampirehunter #drawing #instaart How long was it? A two month art block? Am I out already?

The Man Who Was Screaming

I was laying in bed one night, about to fall asleep, when somewhere far below me I heard a screaming. It was faint, and might not have been a screaming at all, actually. Might have been just wind howling between some rocks, or water running through a pipe below. I thought nothing of it, and went to sleep.

The following night, however, it persisted. A horrible, distant, eldritch wail. I got up, put on some some sweatpants and a coat, and made my way outside to investigate. The sound seemed to come from the direction of the woods. Following it, I found myself in an isolate grove. An almost abnormally large, wiry tree stood in its center, and what was now certainly a human scream emanated from below it.

I approached cautiously. Just below the tree, underneath one of the roots, was a small hollow. Still curious about the noise, I stuck my hand in, illuminating the opening with my phone’s flashlight. It was more than large enough for a human. I squeezed through between the roots.

A spiraling dirt staircase led downwards into the earth. Gradually, it became a stone staircase. And gradually, it became more refined. Indiscernible symbols of some ancient language at first spattered, and then totally covered the walls. The feverish scribbling was punctuated with crude drawings of an enormous creature made seemingly only of darkness and limbs. As I descended, torches began to appear, glowing with a reddish flame, bouncing shadows in mad patterns among the cavern.

The spiral staircase came to an opening – an enormous atrium of black stone, which I entered through the middle of the ceiling. Below me, a sea of dark liquid. The screaming was almost deafening now, as I stepped onto the floor of the atrium.

The distinct smell of iron and rot. It was blood. This unthinkably enormous opening, where I could barely see the walls in the distance, was entirely submerged in about 3 inches of blood. It reflected the light of the chandeliers dangling above wildly. I turned around, and saw the man.

On the far side of the cavern from the staircase, there stood a humanoid figure, covered entirely in the thick red liquid. It looked as if the blood was flowing both from him, and into him, at every pore. His whole body was a turbulent red. And he was screaming a scream that spoke of years, perhaps centuries of screaming. Grotesque, and unending.

“STOP,” I said to him.

“Sorry,” he replied.

“STOP WITH THE SCREAMING,” I told him.

“Yeah, sorry, my bad,” he said.

And so he stopped, and I went back to my house, and went to sleep.

But the next night the motherfucker was at it again, so I guess that’s life for you.

I think I'm in the clear from the small art block I got stuck in for the last couple of weeks. Still, I wanted to finish this little frustration piece, in line with the previous one.

Aaand here’s the rest of the artjam.

Hace unos años surgió la idea de hacer un artjam para hacer una versión estilo “Magic: The Gathering” de las ilustraciones de la lotería mexicana. Hoy, les presento orgullosamente un trabajo hecho por 54 talentosísimos artistas de diversos países- México, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela, Ecuador, etc.- que le dieron vida a este proyecto. A pesar de que el punto de partida era hacer algo épico, se les dio libertad creativa para interpretar el concepto de la tarjeta en su propio estilo. La mayoría fueron hechos en digital painting, pero también hubo ilustraciones en vectores, tradicional y 3D!

No tengo palabras para describir lo agradecida que estoy con todos y cada uno de ellos. Los trabajos recibidos superaron por mucho mis expectativas, fue un honor haber podido contar con su talento.

Visiten la publicación en Facebook para ver el nombre y portafolio de cada uno de los artistas. https://www.facebook.com/Renee.Chio.Art/posts/1513387218702412 Saludos!

Lotería: The Gathering

Well, this project is finally online, and I’m happy to show the illustration I made :D

The Lotería is a game similar to Bingo, but instead of being played with numbers is played with characters and pictures. It’s quite a traditional thing In México, and the challenge of the artjam was to bring a spin on the original images with something more epic and modern.

Un mecha rapidisimo, de un thumbnail que hice a principios del año, con un poco de ayuda de 3D. Tyrannosaurus Crane es el mejor nombre que se me ocurre :B #mech #robot #conceptart #scifi #crane #construction

Second attempt at sharing this animation here on tumblr. A flat version of our favorite city leveling hyperoctahedron, Ramiel.

Segundo personaje para mi lineup en el curso de diseño de personajes en @escuelaescena con @pauillustration Gregor /fancyfancyname/ ha sido patriarca de la comunidad de vampiros por los últimos doscientos años. Si bien públicamente ha advocado fuertemente por la incorporación de los vampiros al resto de la humanidad, su control sobre la comunidad es draconico e inclemente; en sus palabras, siempre en pro del bien futuro y común. #characterdesign #character #conceptart #vampire #art #drawing #scifi

Full version of the previous one. Done as a new identity image for social media and business cards and whatnot. Also, kind of further exploration on whispers and the kind of stuff that comes along with your mind. And a cartoon me, because I like contrasts :D

Tag along for the parade. We've got horrors, regret, abstract fears and unbearable thoughts to warm your days and nights. (Please see the rest of the album X____x) #horror #art #creepy #drawing #art #toon #painting #creature #album #characterdesign #selfportrait
