Hey,

I've been working on a project where I create and post one illustration a day, and today I chose to illustrate my favorite part of Diablo: the Secret Cow Level.
Hope you like it.

Check out more illustrations that I've done on my blog: http://maldenb.wordpress.com/.
A new illustration will be created and posted every day until next Christmas. I plan to do a few more Diablo-related illustrations sometime in the future.

Hey, here's another one, this time of a treasure goblin king that got his hands on some real treasure: A good slice of pie ala mode!
Enjoy.

Awesome, I hope you continue to enjoy them. I'm just getting started (352 illustrations to go!)!

I definitely appreciate every new audience member during my new adventure in the media arts.
Most of my stuff won't be of video games, but I believe most will still enjoy the things I can come up with. Yesterday's, for example, was about pizza:

Me too... haha. I was getting pretty hungry while working on this.

The toppings used were all chosen from real pizzas: Anchovies, apple, artichoke, avocado, broccoli, fried eggs, lemons, mushrooms, onion, pepperoni, pineapple, potatoes, roast beef, spinach, taco, and tomatos.


I'll keep adding illustrations here if nobody minds. Here's today's (good luck sleeping tonight!):

Today's illustration was about humans and pigs:


"People Noises"


Posted Image



"Fact: Humans are very closely related to pigs (some scientists estimate as much as 90-98% genetically, with 112 shared gene mutations).
In some old civilizations, the term for cooked human is “long pig,” and it is said that human flesh tastes very similar to pig.
Some psychologists suggest the sound of a pig squealing has a slightly traumatic effect on humans listening to it because of the similar noises between the separate species."

I love this, especially your choice of color palettes.  Bookmarking your page now.  I want a drawing tablet too.

Hey, thanks very much! It means a lot.

I'm currently using a Bamboo "Splash" tablet. I like it a lot so far; it seems anything bigger wouldn't be as comfortable.
I'm doing this project to become more acquainted and experienced with tablets and various imaging programs I've gathered. I figure I might as well share a little humor with others while I'm at it.
