Robot Challenge – Richard Pace

  Remembered too late last night that it was my turn to post a challenge. Few things; not a huge robot fan, so it gets a little difficult to conceptualize one without a guiding brief.  Played around with a tank-robot and a saber-tooth tiger based robot before I got frustrated and whi

You might notice something familiar about this piece - it was based off a sketch that I did for a previous challenge. My wife liked the piece really well and I'd been wanting to make a special piece just for her. So, I went ahead and took that original parents/children challenge and figure

  First entry over here! Going for nightmares was a bit of a broad idea to start with, so  I went to the Lovecraft/tentacle/body-horror well, which is certainly in my wheelhouse I think. Pencil on Bristol with a little post scan photoshoppery for the gradation and texture.

  My goal in this challenge was to try and capture the drama of the scene with the diagonals and the gesture of the pose rather than with the details of the character itself. The bloody axe and creepy house on the hill do well enough to suggest that something terrible is happening here, but
