Octo-Claus is coming to town Photoshop November 2009
It's that time of the year again and I wanted to share with you my holiday card. This year I actually printed my card as physical postcards to send to my friends in the industry and family. It was certainly a learning experience and glad to see that printing access has become cheaper and cheaper since I left college. Overnightprints did a great job I have to say, I caught them during a postcard sale too. I've also created another blog dealing with all the illustration process so please check it out for a in-depth look at how I created this piece. Happy holidays everyone...

But I thought I could use the ideas from them as an illustration. Santa "Octo-Claus" creeps through the window and prepares to kidnap the innocent pure little lady. Just as our hero comes to the rescue, badass scythe and all...
