 Fan Art : The Great Wall Of Sam



Warning: Gore

What's the concept ?

I filled the following prompt for the [livejournal.com profile] sharp_teeth  community requested by [livejournal.com profile] rokhal   :

As Sam's Wall breaks down, things from behind it trickle out into the real world.

I just HAD to drew this. The "Great Wall of Sam"? Monsters stepping out into the real world? It's just perfect! I love drawing gore stuffs and I must admit I haven't drawn something like this for a long time. I've been working on my very schmoopy prompt for [livejournal.com profile] spn_cinema  (inspired by the movie Romeo + Juliet) for one month and an half now and even if I love the result so far, I missed drawing arts with blood, skulls and organs all over the page.  Even if there is a death scene in R+J, it's nothing compared the gore potential offered by what's hidden behind the "Great Wall of Sam". 

An inspiration?

The anatomical drawings by J.M Bourgery  and N.H Jacob. I have the Taschen book at home and I am in love with it (it's a BIG book). I also had some help from my Mum's books (she's a surgeon). Here's an example of the great illustrations you can find in the Bourgery and Jacob's book:
 
 
 
Tools of the trade
 
- Graphite, charcoal and China Ink on Japanese paper for Sumi e
- Photoshop CS (Background texture + white highlights)

I hope you enjoyed this post!
See you soon!

Thanks a lot ^^
As far as the the texture is concerned, it depends: the sepia texture is added thanks to Photoshop but the grain of the image is due to the paper itself. It's a Japanese paper for ink works like sumi e
