Tim Burton: Mars Attacks, by Eric Schuster

I admire Tim Burton for being prolific and getting to pretty much run down a checklist of dream projects.  I'm not a fan of most of his work, but I really loved Ed Wood, Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, and of course the giant ball of crazy that was MARS ATTACKS.  Mars Attacks was awesome.  Growing up I was unaware of the gruesome series of trading cards that the movie was based on...apparently the work of comic book supergenius Wally Wood.

  1. Excellent work, and an excellent creature/character pick :) ! Great choice for the black and white, horror style! And, awesome series of trading cards! Some of those are amazingly horrific, damn gruesome, luv it.

  2. Dude I love this! It has a touch of Sam hiti to it. I love the variety of textures going on too, the inkwash, the dry brush, the clean lines, all of it.

  4. These characters always looked a bit worried to me and you really caught that in this drawing. Great variety in mark making. Good work.
