Agony

Agony - John Prisk

Another musically inspired piece. Again by the thrash metal band Testament on the song Agony off of their early 90's release The Ritual.
It's a song about prisoners of war in the Viet Nam era.

The Shore

The Shore - John Prisk

Digital output masquerading (sorta) as traditional art. The figure outline is traditionally done, but the rest of it digitally rendered.

Gojira

Godzilla - John Prisk


My homage to the movie from last year. I quite enjoyed it, caring little for the criticisms I heard.

Jurassic Worlds

Jurassic World - John Prisk

A sorta vintage-esque thing about a sorta vintage-esque thing. Dinosaurs you see.

I want to add some copy to this and turn it into a cover piece to a fictional Jurassic World travel brochure. But as of now it's as finished as I want it to be...

Spiderman V The Lizard

Spiderman/The Lizard - John Prisk

Sorta loosely based on McFarlane's Torment storyline from the launch of the Spider-Man title back in the 90's.
Very sorta loosely based.
Mostly it was done just because I wanted to do some Spidey stuff...

Three Days of Darkness

Testament - Three Days of Darkness - John Prisk



I procrastinated enough...
Another homage to the thrash band Testament.

To Boldly Go...

USS Enterprise - John Prisk


Another work in progress; this one based, quite obviously, on Star Trek.
I have a fair amount of rendering and texturing to do here, in addition to possibly doing a different planet for this one. The bottom gap is blank for now but will ultimately have some Star Trek related copy in it...

A Work in Progress

Blob Guy - John Prisk

The amorphous blob guy making an appearance in a new w.i.p.
Colors, copy and textures to come.

Weird Mars

John Prisk - Weird Mars

A work in progress.
This one is going to be "vintaged" out when all is said and done. The header of "Weird Mars" may change if I think of anything more pulpy...

Vintage Swamp Thing

Swamp Thing - John Prisk


Faux-vintage of course, but it looks somewhat convincing, no?
I've liked the character ever since I got some old issues illustrated by the great Bernie Wrightson when I was a kid. This was drawn kinda small in a sketchbook, so it suffers a little from scale, but I thought it would look cool as a vintage cover...

Childhood Hero

Flotsam and Jetsam - John Prisk

"...Grab a gun and shoot into the dark to save my life. Didn't know what I had done 'til I turned on the light..."

As the copy suggests, this is an homage to the band Flotsam and Jetsam and their tune Childhood Hero, off the album Dreams of Death. The whole album tells the story of a kid/guy who is afraid of what he does (thinks he does) to others when he falls asleep...
Childhood Hero seems to be the impetus of the characters problems. He, in the course of a nightmare, is awoken suddenly by his father who is subsequently shot by the boy as he is in a state where he can't quite yet discern dream from reality...

Unnatural Selection

Flotsam and Jetsam Unnatural Selection - John Prisk


An homage to a band I really like, but their one album I couldn't stand, unfortunately...

After Brad Wright

John Prisk - After Brad Wright

A little thing I did as an homage to artist Brad Wright. He does some crazy cool stuff and you should check him out if you get the chance...
Anyway, this is me, tipping my hat...

Coloring is Fun

Kids Stuff - John Prisk

Kids Stuff - John Prisk

Kids Stuff - John Prisk
At the behest of my niece, I did some stuff for her to color.
She wanted bunnies, kitties and dragons... I'm still working on the dragons.

Ghost Rider

Ghost Rider - John Prisk

Ghost Rider has always been a Marvel character I thought had a ton of potential, but was never quite used/applied right (in my opinion). There's been some cool stuff, but this character could have had a much greater story arc thus far...
Anyway, it's another W.I.P.
