Kamakura Gongorō Kagemasa


Acrylic paint on A4 paper (sketchbook).

Something I was messing about with in a sketchbook.
It's suppose to be a Kabuki character / villain (Katakiyaku). I came across images of Kamakura Gongorō Kagemasa from the Kabuki play "Shibaraku." Of course I didn't know any of that at the time, I just knew I wanted to paint a Kabuki character.

Delivering bad news



I contributed artwork for a story that appears in Sector 13 fanzine - issue 4. More info: http://bit.ly/2tdu93N

Although inspired by the story I contributed to, I did this strip for fun to post on social media (and because I realised I added a name to the restaurant that was not part of the story). 
It's not even an accurate representation of the style I used in the comic.

Inktober 2017: Day 22

The commotion from the giant and the presence of the stranger's sword disturbed the Drinking Dragon from its slumber.  The hooded stranger landed on its back and grasped tightly to what he thought was grass, but it had a strong hold like hair. 

The dragon soared up into the sky, encircling the giant. The hooded stranger preferred this way of getting to the giant's head.

Inktober 2017: day 21



[Flash back]
3 days earlier*.
The hooded stranger and the musician on top of Castle Rushen, Castletown:

M: "See that rock over there just near Calf of Man? That’s drinking rock." 

HS: "Is that where people go to drink?" 

M: "It looks like a dragon drinking from the sea." 

HS: [straining to see] "ah! I see it now."
