I made this a while back for a T-shirt design contest but didn’t enter it on time because I am horrible at life. I have decided to make another one of these in traditional media for the Adventure time show, so I figured I would share this one. Ink and brush, hand lettered and then colored in photoshapps.

My son requested a demonic crow when I asked him what kind of monster I should draw while we watched Netflix. I took the ink crow into photoshop for some color and this is the final result.

Oh my, two new posts in two days! What are the chances of this happening again? (not good.)
Here are some new scans from my current 3×5″ moleskine, the poor thing fell out of my pocket Christmas eve and was drizzled upon for about ten hours before I found it in the driveway Chrismas Day. HOORAY FOR THE HOLIDAYS! =\
Luckily the damage wasnt’ as bad as I would have thought other than some slight rippling of the pages. A bit of Photoshop trickery was used in getting some of the imperfections those waves caused during scanning.
