Tattoo Boo, Part Deux

Tim Gore is a huge fan of Romero's zombie series, and his Sketchy Things tattoo reflects that obsession. Below is Tim at the recent Fango Con, showing off my caricature of Bill Hinzman, the Cemetary Ghoul from NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, to the man himself! I've met Bill many times, and he's always enjoyed my sketches of his iconic alter-ego, but I'm willing to bet this isn't the first - or last - portrait of himself he's seen on someone's skin!

If you or someone you know has a Sketchy Things tattoo (I know they're out there!), I'd love to see it and post a photo of it here on the blog.

Drawn Of The Dead

I am a huge Romero fan, so when a fan of mine commissions a "Living Dead" piece, I am thrilled. Travis Davidson from the San Diego area owns almost all of my original drawings based on Dawn Of The Dead. He had me do this piece because most of the drawings he owns are of the human characters from that film. This zombie is probably the most iconic image from that movie, and it was a heck of a lot of fun to do.

Greg Nicotero owns the sketch I did of him from Day Of The Dead, and Tom Savini owns his from Dawn. Travis owns the rest, including the one-legged Priest who has the best line in the all the Dead films. "When the dead walk, Senores, you must stop the killing, or lose the war."

Love it.
