The Lovecraftian art of Thomas Perkins
A veteran of the animation studio scene, artist Thomas Perkins churns out an impressive and always engaging blend of Lovecraftian creatures, heroes crackling with arcs of pure energy and straight up pen and ink pieces that are wholly unique in their vision. Especially wonderful is the blog that showcases his daily illustrations on his kid’s school lunch bags.

Warren Ellis’ Remake/Remodel Jams
Held bi-weekly at comic creator Warren Ellis’ Whitechapel message boards, the “Remake / Remodel” threads are genre bending exercises in re-imagining old comic and pulp concepts. Artists of every skill level and discipline create their interpretations of the chosen topic and display the finished product within the thread. Results vary but there are always outstanding and thought provoking ideas presented. Captain Future And His Amazing Lab Goons is the current theme.
Behold the awesomeness of Space Stallions
From the sword that becomes a keytar, to the vivid rainbow hued jetstreams of the equally rainbow colored mechanical star steeds, this four minute tour de force from the Animation Workshop giddily tosses so many 80s concepts and cartoon icons and into a blender, it would be futile to attempt to list them all. Just watch.

Andrew Holder is a hidden secret. With an impressive client list and a fantastic website, there isn’t nearly enough press surrounding the Californian-based artist. Using his amazing eye for both colour and form, he creates dramatic illustrations from basic block shapes. The use of gradients, pattern as texture and offbeat colours create real depth.
His drawings are so realistic that, after first thinking it was photography, you then search for a ‘zoom button’ to get the most details you can. Then, slowly, the drawings seem to be moving, they appear to be alive, something is coming, and the story, after a minute, is already all around you. Read more
