The reason why Earthworm Jim was so...wet in the earlier post! Venomworm Jim is my piece for @danluvisiart's Popped Culture book! Such an honor to be a part of it and I am seriously looking forward to all the awesome artwork in this book. The idea for the crossover came with the thought that both venom and earthworm Jim's suit are symbiotic. A crossover was made easy with the similarity of EWJ's wormness and Venom's infamous long tongue 😜 Tools used: Copic wide markers Prismacolor markers Kuretake brush pen No.22 Pentel pocket brush Sakura Gelly roll white pen Whiteout for the giant thumbprint I made after it was all done #fml #venom #earthwormjim #ewj #poppedculture #danluvisi #joverinks #markers #twitter #tumblr #Pinterest #blogger #coffee #videogames #snes#gameboy#genesis #pc #ios #ipad #iphone#games #drool

Very random alien portrait painted in the Procreate app on the iPad Pro. I recorded it (this is built into Procreate) and sped it up in the iMovie app. I also recorded some boring audio and uploaded the whole thing to YouTube. Link in my bio(Instagram) or Google joverine YouTube. The video is just over a minute and a half haha. Anyway, iPad Pro and pencil are growing on me. Fun for sure. I think a big plus is being able to draw in an app, record it, edit it and upload it all using this one tablet. That and the pencil feel and response time are excellent! #apple #ipadpro #procreate #artist #joverinks #applepencil #speedpaint #digitalart #alien #timefor#coffee #twitter #pinterest #tumblr #blogger

First drawing of 2016 is...a girl? Way out of my comfort zone again and wasn't going to post...but I figured what the hell. Maybe a women Wednesday or something to get me to practice? Got a better hashtag idea for me sketching ladies? Let me know on the comments below. 2016 started off shit with the news my uncle passed away. So here's to hoping it's all sunny from here on out. Maybe that's her name...Sunny...I don't know.

Sometimes life catches you off guard and knocks you on your ass...And sometimes somebody pays your $55 bill at the gas station because your card wouldn't work... and you spend the rest of the day thinking about it.

Sometimes you gotta wait a few years for a painting to become a cover of a comic book. Haha. Streetfighter Unlimited # 1 Retailer Exclusive Covers(there's multiple variants) Head over to UdonEntertainment.com for more info or big @udonent haha Coincidentally, I have some prints of this cover available(minus the text) if you're interested.

A frightful figure emerges from the darkness as I sit and contemplate my next move. His foul-fanged mouth emits a soul sucking sound. "Available fffor ssSssome fffffreelance work?" I pause...I accept. Had to accept some freelance work this week. Luckily it's from one of my very favorite clients! Mighty Canvas! And no, they are not frightful nor make soul sucking sounds-I was just playing with the imagery of the drawing (obviously) It will keep me busy for this month so I will have to put the Berzerker to rest for awhile. #battleberzerkerbalto #digital #comics #photoshop #wacom #cintiq #art #artist #joverinks #joverineArtBook #twitter #Pinterest #tumblr #blogger

Wasn't going to post with ugliness in the news recently. But, I found myself surfing IG for distraction tonight and I'm glad there's people posting to distract me. So. Some prints I found while visiting my bro with @omar.dogan.5 They're my convention prints but I didn't do any conventions this year. #art #artist #artprints #streetfighter #capcom #battleberzerkerbalto #symbioteseries #akuma #residentEvil #tmnt #ninjaturtles #ryu #sagat #twitter #tumblr #Pinterest #blogger
