The Overseer meets Satan in Hell

 

Jim, not a fan of Hell.

 

The Present Times

 

I was drawing in starbucks with a piece of paper in one hand and a pencil in the other and a guy who is a corner-you-and-talk-at-you came in so I didn't look up. He bumped my arm and when I took off my headphones asked "Is this all freehand or is it AI?" and I waited for him to laugh at his old guy joke but he just stared at me. I said "...You think I AI generated a piece of paper?" and he got mad and said "I'm 73 years old give me a BREAK." Then sat and watched AI narrated AI generated videos for the next hour without headphones. This interaction haunted me for the rest of the week. 

Today he came in and cornered a lady for a half hour describing scenarios from said videos.

Satanic Office Flashback

 

 

The Cathouse picture above Satan's desk in The Satan Killers I wanted to be from The Overseer's infulence. So for the flashback of The God Labs Chapter 04 we see what Satan originally had hanging there. 

Chapter 04 Cover

 

The cover for Chapter 04, thus far. Since I re-painted covers in Krita that I had previously finished in Photoshop, I started the tradition of making two covers from the same pencil drawing. 

Chapter 04 is a flashback to the time when The Overseer discovered Hell is under The God Labs, met Satan, and they became fast friends.

Pale Mare

 

Made a Pale Mare which I understand is a modified Roland BeeBaa. It's cool, can be a gnarley and wooly and sputtery fuzz. It's probably come the closest to usurping my monogamous love for the Carcosa.

I thought it would be nice to depict recently severed hands on the enclosure, to convey the gravity of the sounds that can be achieved with such a device.

As usual the layout is from either dirtboxlayouts or tagboardeffects blogspots.

Happy Birthday!

 

Couple birthday requests. The guns were not part of the request, but I thought it was implicit.

Flowers and a Bag of Poop

Between Chapters illustration, a reference to this MSPaint drawing from a friend

The God Labs Chapter 03 is out! I was shooting for October but I got it done about a month and a half early! At the end of this chapter Stephen finally meets Tequila Sunrise!!!

The God Labs Chapter 03 Process Shot

 

Another process shot, from rough script to pencil drawing to digital painting. I was listening to the new Boards of Canada album Inferno, and thought "The God Labs" would look good in their 70s/80s educational film font, so I tried that out in the top middle.
