weasel hair brush, Chinese ink, bristol, 5x8 inches

Illustration for extreme author C.C. Parker's tale 'Tribe in Black', published in Black Ink Horror Issue 4. Check out [link] for more details, and grab yourself a copy before they are gone.

Had to redo the scan as I am not happy with the one I previously released. It still doesn't do justice to the original (if I do say so myself).

The main character's sister is an ultra-hot cheerleader; he's got some major 'issues' with family togetherness and subconscious demonic forces, which don't seem to be helped by a screaming vodka drinking mom. Add a cocktail of potent hallucinogens, and Chaos ensues...

I believe this drawing owes something to the film 'Basket Case' (one of my favorites) which is mentioned in the story...as for the composition, I see Ukiyo woodblock print portraits of bijinga (beautiful ladies) as an inspiration...
