A Palm Tree, A Magic Mushroom, And A Little Red Heart

Monday, June 16th, 2008

I finished these three shrink art dog tags last week but I only got around to taking a picture of them this morning. There is a palm tree on the beach with a blazing sun and colorful waves, a magic mushroom giving shelter to tiny tulips, and a simple little red heart token… all of them drawn by me. I think my favorite of the three is the magic mushroom. I’m going to play around some more this week with my colored pencils and shrink plastic to see what other designs I can come up with.

My First Tribal Skull Dog Tag

Friday, May 30th, 2008

I was a little embarrased at the dog tags I posted previously (the clear ones), so I thought I better step up my game a little bit and come up with something I can be proud to show off. Yesterday I went out and got some new shrink plastic which is rough on one side and smooth on the other side. This type of plastic is much better for using colored pencils with. Anyway this is the first really cool skull I think I’ve ever drawn, although I’m sure I have drawn a few before but none like this one. I kinda went a little crazy with the tribal design around the skull and I wasn’t very happy about that once I finished the drawing but after I shrunk the pendant I think it looks pretty cool.
