Legend

Legend (Unofficial Fan Art), by Brandon A. Miltgen, 2013

This one’s for my sweetheart, Bethany. Her favorite movie is the Tom Cruise epic, Legend. As my wife and I discussed what the concept to encapsulate the movie should be, she suggested that gorgeous moment of transition when Blix, the foul-hearted goblin, destroys one of the unicorns. I like that Blix and the unicorn are the metaphorical “hands” of the forces they represent—Blix is the hand of Darkness, while the unicorn is the hand of all that’s good and pure. One of the most impressive elements of the film for me is the crazy amount of leaves, wisps, and what-not you can see floating around so many of the frames of the film. For my fellow geeks, below is the Unicorn Theme by Tangerine Dream that was part of the soundtrack I listened to while creating this artwork (if you want to play something while taking in the image). Happy Thursday! More posters for the challenge are in development, so stay tuned 😉

Ride ’em Dinos

Aug26

The Cowboys and Dinosaurs are starting to trickle in… Joe “The Man” Kramer starts us off with a bang with “Ride ’em Dinos.” Check out the mustache on that cowpoke! He’s about to lasso him a lizard. I wonder if the lasso or that hungry looking ‘Rex will get that little critter first! Great job, Joe. More cowboys and dinos are on the way 😉

Mermaid Challenge!

Aug14

Hey everybody Adrianne here. I am one of the contributing artists here at Illustration Time. Last weeks challenge as you may recall was my pick, and I picked Mermaids. I’ve always had a mild obsession with mermaids and I suppose I just really wanted to see what everyone could come up with. I think they came out great! And so different! Take a look, and be sure to watch for future challenges!
